The past month has gone by incredibly fast. I will do a quick and to the point update. Lots of pictures too...so beware. Enjoy!
1. Grass is growing really good! (we may have to mow it before we turn off the sprinklers.
2. It snowed.... ALREADY!!! It was really fun to see for the brief moment that it lasted. I had a good couple of inches on the Durango.
3. I spent a couple days with Michelle and her cute family. They kept me very intertained and we had a great time. We played a lot and they pretended that I was dad (tackling and wrestling). Michelle, mom, Lisa and I attended her Super Saturday that she was basically in charge of. It was really fun and I walked away with some cute items.
4. Steve let me steal Michelle the night of Super Saturday. I took her to the Mystique Theatre in Pocatello to watch Joseph and the amazing coat. It was really funny. I even saw some friends from High School that are in the play. (Kacey and Ross Bronson). Michelle LOVED the food ;) We had salad(with the dirt still on it). Then we got 4 huge shrimp (they were donated to they guys). Then the main course. We went safe and had the pasta. It was pretty good. Then at intermission they brought us some yummy cheesecake. We had a great time and again thanks to Steve for watching the kids ALL DAY!!!! Much appreciated.
5. Lagoon was fun... except for the part where I got sick. :) We hit the major rollar costers first, and I had forgot to take Dramamine in time, so needless to say after only a couple I was basically out for the count. It was still fun though. Wicked was truely WICKED!!! It was fun and I would have done it again even if I spewed all over. Thanks to Meg and JJ for letting us crash at their house. The basement looks great finished and we had fun playing Mario cart.
6. Going to Lagoon, we were heading up the Malad pass and we got a check engine line thrown at us. Nate said we lost a cylinder... which is common for the Durango. So we continued to drive and made it there fine. We opted to stop in Brigham city and visit Bethany and Luke and change out the spark plugs and such. It works great now! We will just have to do it agian in about six months. :( Thanks for letting us use your tools Luke!
7. Nate went to his FINAL appointment about his hand. He got the all clear and only has to wear the splint when it begins to hurt. We should start seeing those bills soon, so that should be fun. I am just very thankful that we did not have to go to a specialists.
8. Sunday dinner with Derek, Brooke and Emma. We had a great time with this tonight. Emma still continues to be the cutest thing. We played a little Wii and I think we now have Derek addicted. We will have to have a monthly Wii party or something.
9. Nate is looking for a new job...he is trying to get on with the Site...so wish us a luck.
10. We can't wait to see Mike, Karen and Kate at Thanksgiving. We miss them so much. I took that full week off to spend as much time wiht them as possible. Family time is the best time. :)
11. Nate's school is going ok. He is passing, so we are ok so far. He has more tests coming up, so he has to get cracking for those.
12. Our bushes are turning a pretty purple. I just hope they make it through the winter. If not, they are under warranty this first year. :)
That about sums it up. Sorry so long. Have a good week! Nate and I bought some pumpkins last night to decorate, so watch for an upcoming post on how those turned out.

Yay! We miss you guys too! Oh and by the way, Kate wore the pink and green bow to church yesterday and EVERYONE complimented her on it! They are SO cute!!! She "wrote" you a thank you note... I just haven't gotten it in the mail yet. You're such a sweet auntie! Can't wait for Thanksgiving!!!
You seem to be always busy, never a dull moment in the Whipple household! We miss you guys so much, I want to come home for thanksgiving, but it is impossible, it is way to close to my due date. So Trav's dad and grandma are coming here--a little stressful, oh well. Have a great day!
