I don't know if I could be any happier that October is over! I called the last week of October Halloween week from Heck! I don't know if I can look at those cute little costumes again! But they were so cute! D. and Z. seriously lived in their costumes the week of Halloween.
Stake Conference was this last weekend, and I really enjoyed it! At the adult session I had to lead the music, at little stressful, all went well! You know it's one of those times when you are hoping that you don't trip, that you don't have lipstick on your teeth..... you get the idea! I loved getting to know our Stake better, and meeting some great people. I did have a "Sunni temple moment", our Stake President had challenged every member of our stake to write their testimony in a Book of Mormon, and when the time was right give it away to someone. Now, I could be technical and say that I didn't live in the Stake when he gave that challenge, but really within this last year, I should/could have done that! He had those who had met his challenge stand up-- just those who had given away a Book of Mormon within the last year to stand up. I was NOT one of those standing. It made me strive to do better- made me more aware of how I am doing missionary work. It was a good weekend, as soon as it was November! = )

Hallelujah we are on the same time again. Yes.
Not a good feeling sitting there while everyone else stands up and laughs and points at you, is it? Oh, that last part only happened in the reoccuring nightmare after stake conference! And I know the real reason you are glad October is over, its because you are a Christmas decorating junkie, and you can't wait to deck your halls!!! (Tell the truth!) OXOXOX
Matt just told me you were coming in! I'm so excited! We will for sure have to do something! Let me know if you don't already have family plans, if you need a place to stay, etc.
So I do check your blog occassionally, but I must have missed the post around the end of September that announced #4 on the way! Wow! Yes, congratulations! You have a such a beautiful family, one more will add to it wonderfully. (with three babies being conceived when the older one was between 6-9 months, the idea of another one just about makes me lose it! Oh, wait, that would be a bad sign.... what I'm trying to say is that time will be a good thing this time around for us) I'm excited for you and hope all goes well with your pregnancy. (doesn't it seem you peterson's are always having babies close with each other? Cousins must be pulling for each other) Great news Amy!
