Fall is in the air


Today actually felt like fall. It's been raining since last night and that crisp, autumn air is more noticeable during the day, and especially at night. The leaves are now bright yellow and many have fallen, paving the roads. I love it. :)

I've had a very busy weekend. Friday night, Alan showed up at my apartment with flowers and two of my favorite treats (Mountain Dew and Sour Patch Kids). :) I have a great guy and thank God for him all the time! We hung out and watched episodes of Entourage until he had to go to work. After he left, I went with three girls from the University of Utah (one of which Alan works with) to Thanksgiving Point. We did a corn maze then a haunted corn maze, ending the night with some pumpkin picking. It was so much fun! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.:)

Today, Alan and I went to lunch with Dr. Hogle. Afterwards, we went back to his house and spent about 3 hours with him, listening to his stories of hunting and traveling, as he showed us his photography from over the years and later his trophy room full of mounted bull elk, stuffed bears and even a cougar. He has lived a very exciting and fulfilling life and has so much to be proud of!

Some of you may know that I absolutely love photography. So, after seeing all of his pictures of beautiful bull elk in the Salt Lake area, I suggested that he and I go for a drive and he show me the hot spots so I could get some use out of my new camera. He gladly accepted my offer and we plan to do that in about 2 weeks. :) He is just such a kind-hearted, loving man and I'm so grateful to have met him and have him as a friend.

Also, I'm moving to Sandy, Utah at the end of this month! It's a good move for me as it's more affordable, closer to Alan, school and my job! Needless to say, I'm very excited about this. :)

I have my first consultation regarding radiation this Tuesday morning at the Huntsman Cancer Institute. FINALLY!! It's been long awaited and I'm ready to get this next phase of treatment started and finished! I'll be sure to post on Tuesday what the gameplan is. xo
