It has been a little while since I have written on here, so I thought I would give you a quick update on what we have been doing.
We are still working on our kitchen projects. We have our new stove and microwave hooked up (kudo's to Derek for figuring it out all by himself!) and we ordered new granite counter tops this weekend. We never had intentions of getting granite, but it ended up not being much more than the laminate we wanted. They measured for it today and hopefully it will be installed in the next 10 days. Yippee! I'll post pictures when we are finally finished. It is amazing that once you start one project (painting our cabinets) it turns into another and another. Merry Christmas to us I guess. :)
Derek is trying to fit in a few last minute trips to the golf course before the snow comes. He is loving the nice weather we have had lately. Cooper really loves having Derek home on Friday's. It has been good for them to spend more time together. The biggest problem is when Monday rolls around, Cooper hates that Derek has to go back to work.
Elections are almost here! Everyone better get out and vote this year. We voted on Friday and it felt good to vote for Jason. The campaign is calming down and now we are working on organizing honk and waves and making phone calls. I am going to enjoy a break but I am sure going to miss all the fun things that come along with the campaign. The Republican Party is hosting a party at the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake on election night. We are excited to go and are planning on staying up in Salt Lake for the night. It will be a fun little get-away for Derek and I. Plus, Cooper will have more fun with Grandpa Nelson than he ever has with us.
Young Women's is still going well. My good friend Jenn, was just stolen by the Relief Society to be their new secretary so we are really sad to lose her. She will be a great secretary for them. Young Women "Evening In Excellence" is coming in 2 weeks so as soon as the election is over, my focus has to turn to getting ready for that. We have most of it planned, but it is going to take a lot of work to pull it all together. Thank goodness there are so many great YW leaders in our ward that are helping out!
I guess that is it for now-- that was a lot of nothing. Sorry if I put you all to sleep!
