HELLO FALL

We have had our first two weeks of school and they have been busy! We have eased in by watching too many episodes of Baby Daddy and a few runs to Karie Anne's. Garrett has a pretty demanding schedule with some long days and long assignments. I have been busy going to Rigby four times a week to be at the middle school! I am in a 6th grade leadership elective class and I am LOVING it! It has been so much fun! I am in the classroom twice a week and observe the other two days!

After our first day of school we had ice cream sundaes for family home evening with Lovatos! Graham was such a little love and it felt so good to squeeze that little guy! David made some delicious homemade ice cream and it was so good! 

I bought Graham & Emmett these cute shirts! Graham wore his when we came over for FHE and Emmett was wearing his a few days later!

Garrett and I watched Graham our first Friday night back and had so much fun!! Graham is getting so big and is such a good baby! It was so nice out and Graham loves to be outside so we just sat in the grass and played forever! I love watching Garrett play with our nephews because he is so good with them and will do anything to make them laugh! He will be the best dad!

 *Just trying to teach him the best things in life*

We have also been attending many high school football games! Last week we went to the Madison game versus Highland and they were both undefeated! It was such a good game! This week we also went to the game but Madison killed them so it wasn't as interesting! But still fun! We are LOVING this warm fall weather!! It's almost too hot!

Then on Saturday night we watched the BYU football game, Garrett took my toenail polish off, and I repainted my nails!

Our second week of school was also pretty good! We have gotten the hang of things and our schedules! We look forward to the weekends though that is for sure! This week we found out that our favorite ice cream place-- Karie Anne's only had this last week left! We may or may not have gone 4 times this week! I also watched Graham a few times this week and we went to the park! I can't get enough of him!

For our Friday night date night, we hit up Wendy's for our favorite strawberry lemonade one last time before the season ended!

Then.. we decided to kick off fall with our first activity and we went and picked apples at the apple orchard! We did this two years ago when we were dating! There were probably more apples on the ground then there was on the actual trees but we still got a good bucket full and had fun!

*I used the ladder and Garrett jumped or climbed trees*

 

After we picked apples we went to another Madison game with the Jacobs & then Garrett and I played phase 10. Saturday morning we got up made crepes for breakfast and watched the BYU football game and then cleaned the apartment! 

We went to IF, watched the women's general conference, went for our daily walk, and then went to Karie Anne's for the last time with Elle, David, and Graham!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST

Sunday morning we headed for Billings! Elle, David, and Graham were headed to Billings as well because we planned to take family pictures on Labor Day. Once we got there my mom had a delicious steak dinner ready for us and I had a little surprise for Garrett... 

I got him a TV that he has been wanting since we got married! After all of his hard work this summer I thought it would be a good surprise to give him and very well deserved! He already loves it so much!

That night we just hung out and waited for everyone to come over for dessert! We had both sets of grandparents, Aunt Margie and Uncle Jim over along with Elle, David, and Graham! I could NOT believe how big he had gotten. He was all sitting up and acting like a big boy and stuff. 

On Labor Day we got up early and sent the boys off golfing and us girls went shopping! Old Navy had some really cute things and good sales, and I have a funny story for you... I went up to buy mine and Sophie's things. I was going to get a dress and a skirt. Once I get to the car my mom asked how much I spent and I looked at the receipt realizing that the skirt wasn't in my bag. I went inside and asked the lady who checked me out and searched everywhere I was in the store and could not find it. Then Momma Robbin came in, pointed to a purple something on the floor behind the counter and she said that it wasn't it. Then I came up and she pointed it out. I asked to see it and IT WAS MY SKIRT BEHIND THE COUNTER. That lady SLID IT OFF THE COUNTER TO KEEP FOR HERSELF. You could say that I was pretty worked up. It's pretty funny know but I was pretty mad all day. Because workers should NOT LIE like that. 

Anyways.. who cares about the skirt. The rest of the day we hung out and waited for pictures. Family pictures took a lot of work to find everyone something to wear and figure out where to do it. Then.. the wind... The dang wind was howling. Not good for girls' hair. But we made the best of it and found a few that would work!

So while we were there we printed pictures and hung them in the house! We got to see all of our old pictures and had a good time seeing all of them! It was hilarious! 

On Tuesday we went and upgraded my mom's phone for her early birthday present! 

 Then we got to watch Sophie play volleyball! It was so fun to watch her play!

 

Then we came home and played cards for awhile and Sophie put on quite the show!

On the days that my mom taught preschool we hung out at the house. We golfed around the house, threw the softball around, ran errands, went to lunch with my dad, got massages, and visited Grandma and Grandpa Williams!

Because we take way too many pictures.. But they are wayyy too funny an I want to look back on these someday. I may or may not have made the game winning catch.. or we just over-reacted! But it was way to fun! We were just messing around looking for the mitts and ball and found my dad's old softball hats. We had them on when he got home and we joked around like we were team difronzo all week!

And Friday night we went to the Skyview Varsity Football game! They won, it was a beautiful day, I saw Mr. Bertsch and we had a great time!

After the game we chose to get Papa Murphy's for dinner! They have the best deals that if you text a number you can get a free 2 liter pop and a s'mores dessert pizza for FREE. So we of course got 2 of them! Garrett was in heaven. 

And then we said goodbye to Team DiFronzo for now. 

We of course were sad to leave like we always are when we leave any family but we got up early and headed to Rexburg so we could get organized before school started. We had a great trip across the country and spending time with everyone that we did!
