On the first weekend of the month, we went up to Salt Lake and did a live session at the temple! It was the first time I have been to that temple since we've been married. I love all the detail that is everywhere! It is beautiful! :) After, we used one of our gift cards we got from our wedding and went to Cheesecake Factory. They had gluten free pasta and cheesecake! I was in Heaven for sure! :) We also hiked up to Ensign Peak. It was absolutely gorgeous to be able to look out over the lit up Salt Lake Valley and try to imagine what it looked like when Brigham Young looked out over the Valley and what vision he saw. We stayed in Sandy at Dallin's parents and went to church with them on Sunday. I am starting to become a regular there with how much we go up there!! We were celebrating Bryce's birthday, so we had dinner at the park and went on a motorcycle ride with 4 other couples up Little Cottonwood Canyon. It was so beautiful and fun to be with so many other people, but it was also freezing! We went back to the house and made Hot Chocolate!
On the 21st, Dallin woke up bright and early and with riding with his bros while I went to work! I was quite jealous I couldn't go along, but I am glad he could have such a good time! Katelyn Finch and I wanted to surprise our husbands with a concert to see Allred, but we made the mistake of trying to go to the concert during the BYU vs Utah football game. We ended up telling them what we were going to do and they chose to watch the game instead! Boys will boys... :) We went to dinner at Los Hermanos and then walked over to where the concert was to sell our tickets. We ended up selling 3 out of the 4 so it worked out good!! We went to the Finch's house and made pizzookies/skookies (they have so many different names) and we watched the game. It was fun to be able to relax and spend time with our good friends. BYU lost unfortunately, but it was a close game!!
On Sunday, we had Jaci, Kiley, Toree, Jack, and Susan over for dinner. I made a tomato sauce pasta, rolls and zuccini. Jaci brought stuffed mushrooms and cake, and Jack and Susan brought a salad. It was so yummy! :) We went on a hike after to the first waterfall at Mt. Timp. All the leaves have started changing and it was gorgeous! We came back and had Jaci's homemade Lemon cake filled with whipped cream and lemon custard decorated with Flowers on top. She is seriously amazing! Some day I aspire to be as creative and talented as she is!

Dallin woke up deathly ill that next Monday. He was shaving and almost passed out. I came into the hallway and he was laying on the floor with his face as white as a ghost! I got him into bed and put a cold rag on his face. I called around to about 5 different people to try to get his shift covered at work. He was able to sleep until 11 and barely made it to school. Despite all my vitamins and trying to avoid getting his sickness, it was bound to happen. Now we have both been fighting it the past few days. I lost my voice and that was interesting trying to talk on the phone at work!! Dallin has been so sweet though. When I haven't felt well the past few days, he cleaned the apartment for me and would scratch my back until I fell asleep. He is such a good husband! No, he is the BEST husband! <3
