Withes Weekend

I have been getting to know people up here in Midvale after moving, and trying to find my niche in my new ward. I have gotten to know a few people a bit, and was excited when a girl I had met in my ward, Ellie, texted me and asked me if I wanted to go to Withes Weekend at Gardner Village. Of course I said YES! (As anti-Halloween as I am, I thought it would be fun...) We all got together at Ellies apartment and got our witch costumes together and got ready to head out. The best part of the night was dressing up. :) We got to Gardner Village, and that place was PACKED! There were crowds and crowds of witches! It was definitely crazy! So, we were there probably less than an hour before we got sick of the crowd and decided to go get ice cream, (which is ALWAYS a fail safe plan). So, all dressed up, we took off to cold stone, got some tasty ice cream and headed back to Ellies where we watched a witch movie, whose name I cannot remember for the life of me... Oh well, maybe I will remember later... Anyway, it was a fun night, and a GREAT way for me to meet new people!

All the witches, aren't we adorable!

Trip to Arizona

I went to see Jenna for her birthday in Sierra Vista, Arizona. It was a lot of fun to see her and Reilly and spend the weekend with them. We had a LOT of fun. It was very reminiscent for me being back on an Army post again. We hung out with a bunch of her soldier friends, and I fit right in. It really felt like home and that I belonged there. I got home sick for the Army which I thought would NEVER happen, but hey, it is what it is. Anyway, we went to Tombstone and got old time pictures taken, and went shopping, and to dinner, and just had a blast hanging out. I am going back for Christmas and cannot wait to spend time with my sister again! We have gotten so close the past few years and I really love that we are finally developing that close relationship! I am going out there for Christmas too and cannot wait to see her again! :)

Me and my Seester!
