Girls Are Back In Town

We got quite the exciting news on Friday that Heidi was going to be in town so we were lucky enough to get to spend a few hours with her and her family before church on Sunday.Heidi lives in Louisiana so we haven't seen her since I think Erica got married. Yeah you heard me, long time. We were super weird and goofy in High School, I mean super so we were really missing our other love love Amy Langston who lives in Utah and is a genius and super funny too. It was fun though to get together and laugh. Does anyone else see how long Erica's hair is? What the hula hey Rapunzel?

BOO BASH

On Saturday we went to the Boo Bash that the Campus puts on. My family loves Halloween and I especially love any time where it means I get to wear false eyelashes so we all dressed up.
In case you can't tell Matthew is a basketball player, Jayden is a cute little monkey(again because I am a thrifty shopper and use things twice), and I am Cleopatra.
Jayden was quite fond of getting treats from random people and then if he didn't like a particular vehicle, he would just pass by it, no harm done. Cutest monkey I've ever seen.

Jeanie Pearl, Baby Girl


On Saturday we were lucky enough to go to Jeanie's soccer game in Payson. Jeanie is a really great forward and I love watching her play. One of the things I hate most about not living in Snowflake is that I am not able to watch Jeanie grow up and do her different activities. I miss it so much that it makes me want to slam my hand in a car door. I am so proud of her and the smart, independent, kooky woman that she is becoming. She is really one of my best friends and I love her to death. I always look forward to when I get to spend time with her. Anyway, enough of the sappy stuff.
There's my cute sister. She's only 15 so if any of you out there want to arrange a future setup, let me know.

Happy Birthday To Our Sweet Boy!!!

Happy Birthday to our sweet Missionary James Martin Brimhall. He is now 20 years old. This post is for you sweet James. We all miss and love you so much. Mom and Jeanie were down from Snowflake and so we did a mini celebration for your birthday on Sunday. I made you a cake and we sung Happy Birthday to you. I will try to upload all of the birthday messages, but it's going to take a long time. I just wanted to make sure and wish you a Happy Birthday. Love you so much. Happy 20!!!

Oh What A Beautiful Day!!!

So first off I just want to say how grateful I am for what a beautiful day it is. I have always loved fall. To me it is my favorite season. I love the colors, the air, the smells, the activities, the holidays, the weather, and etc. Matt and I were lucky enough to be sealed in the Snowflake Temple in the fall exactly 3 years ago today. We were sealed on a beautiful day, no wind blowing(amazing since we were in Snowflake), all of our family and friends were there, and I couldn't have asked for a better day. Happy 3 Years Babe. I know I am so blessed to share my forever with you. Thank you for finally making up your mind, and choosing me.

A Spelunking He Will Go


So often I write about what Jayden is doing some might think, uh what about Matt. I promise Matt lives here too and we love him. This morning he went with my two brothers to explore some caves.
Luckily my husband had his trusty headlamp (I would recommend a headlamp to anybody and everybody. We love ours. We use them all the time.) on because they passed right by a rattlesnake who was in fact still alive. John had passed right by it and didn't even see it. Good thing I said my prayers this morning. I was so worried the whole time they were gone. The time that Darrell and John had gone earlier, Darrell had gotten stung by a bee so I had that running in my mind all morning. Then today they saw coyotes, bats, owls, snakes. You better believe I was so glad that I didn't go not to mention I wasn't invited. Oh well. Happy Spelunking boys.

Random

So everyone knows my Mom and how much I love my Mom, but she used to not be the best picture taker. I think she gets it from my grandma. She used to take the most random pictures of people and things. You would look at a picture and think to yourself why did she take this picture. These were all before the digital camera age. She has gotten way better though. So one day I was in Snowflake at my parents house and Jeanie and I were looking through pictures because I was doing a project for my Dad. Jeanie's looking through and all of the sudden says something to the effect of, "Katie, it's Matt." I didn't think it was a big deal because of course we would have pictures of Matt. But she was like, "No Katie, it's Matt when he was younger." So I looked at the picture and I couldn't believe it. If you look at the picture, you'll see Chase Brimhall in the middle and that's who my mom was taking the picture of. She would always take pictures of other people's kids just in case they weren't there. Chase happened to be standing by my future husband Matthew Jordon Waite. It was some regionals choir thing in Junior High I think. Isn't that crazy though. Maybe my Mom knew all along.
