Fall Break 2019: a STAYCATION in Utah!

 I'm not going to lie: at first I was disappointed to not leave Utah County for Fall Break, but at the same time, we were so exhausted from all of the fall sports, school, work, graduate school, and more! 
We slept, shopped for winter clothes and shoes, enjoyed a short hike at Bridal Veil Falls, went to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins for carving, carved the pumpkins, made caramel apples with Grandma Barbie and Poppie, and Jody even enjoyed the broadway show MISS SAIGON with Uncle Doug. 

Alyssa's Fall Soccer Wraps up with 2nd place in her division

With a record-cold October, wrapping up Alyssa's soccer season was cold and even miserable for her mother! LOL!  We are so proud of her and her hard work this season.

Women's Conference with the Hatch girls!

 After the morning session of Saturday conference, Taylor, Alyssa, and I drove to SLC to meet up with Grandma Rae Rae, Jana, and her girls.  We shopped, ate at Blue Lemon, and then watched the Women's Session of Conference together.  Taking pictures at the end was special.  Love these inspiring women in our lives!
