2. We've been serving as nursery leaders with another couple, the Allens. They are the only friends we've made in our new ward, even though we still haven't invited them over for games like we've been meaning to. On Sunday, we were talking about our trip to Florida, our family funeral in Thatcher, and how we visited a family cabin on Mount Graham. Morgan then told us about his family cabin on Mount Graham. We joked about how they are probably neighbors since there are not that many cabins up there. We soon found out that Morgan and Devin are second cousins. Morgan's grandpa is Brooks Daley who is the brother of Margaret Merrill (Daley), Devin's grandma. It's a small world for sure! We even saw Morgan's mom Lisa and his Grandpa at the funeral, but didn't make the connection earlier.
3.One of the reasons we picked our current house was for the side yard. We loved the idea of Zander playing outside and us having bbqs with our friends out there. When we moved in, it was nicely landscaped with vines, plants, and palm trees. Since then, it has grown like crazy and the heat has killed a lot of the plants. A few weeks ago I got out there to cut down the jungle of vines and slowly everything started dying. I was beginning to feel like the worst tenant ever until I looked out my window this past week. The vines are growing back and we even have flowers blossoming on the plants.
4. We celebrated our nephew Tage's 2nd birthday on Tuesday with a family dinner.
5. With Zander's love for Yo Gabba Gabba, I knew he had to be DJ Lance Rock for Halloween this year. He is already set with all the plush characters and boom box so he just needed the costume. As soon as we got it in the mail, Zander put on the hat and glasses and wouldn't take it off. It is the cutest thing ever! I can't wait for trick or treating.
