What a Fabulous Week!!!

This was a wonderful week! So many great things happened and I feel so much less stressed (WAY less than when I wrote my last post!). Let me start with the weekend. Saturday was an interesting day. We got up, cleaned the house, and watched the morning session of General Conference. And then we got a phone call - someone wanted to buy our Sunfire!! We were so excited - because the sale of the Sunfire meant we would be able to buy the Toyota pickup from my sister - the Toyota that belonged to my brother-in-law. The truck that Scott would have given anything to own, rather than see it go back to the bank.

So we sold the car. We took it over that night! We then stopped by a church so Scott could see one of his favorite people from this mission - Scott Taylor. Scottie was SO excited to see him! After that, we drove to Heber to spend the night at my parent's house and watch General Conference.

I have always loved General Conference. No matter what, I ALWAYS feel like there is a message written just for me. And that rang true once again. I loved Jeffrey R. Holland's talk, and I absolutely LOVE Joseph B. Wirthlin. I also love the spirit that I feel when President Thomas S. Monson speaks. He's always such a compelling speaker - and as the Prophet, that spirit is just magnified SO much! It was another really great experience for me.

That night Scottie brought his new truck home!

Last night, Scottie and I went to see Weezer in concert! I had seen them before in 2002, but Scottie hadn't seen them yet, and Weezer has always been one of Scott's favorite bands. He was truly giddy when I got home from work. I had promised him this past Spring that we would go see Weezer if they ever came in concert. We ended up getting a great deal on tickets and we had pretty decent seats! And Scottie got to see another friend from the mission - Mark Taylor and his wife! I love that Scottie and I know the same people from the mission! It was so great to see the Taylors.



It was hard to get any good pics at the concert because our camera is being fixed, so we just had my phone!


Weezer put on an amazing show, as usual! Angels and Airwaves opened for them, and they're a great band as well. We had a blast, and I was glad we could take some time together and just do something fun! It feels like it's been way too long since we just spent some extra money and just plain had fun. Of course the concert went way too late and neither of us got much sleep last night!! But it was well worth it.

Yay for good weeks!!!

I'm so jealous that you got to go to Weezer! In fact, while we were in Disneyland, I thought of you there on Tuesday (that's when you went, right?) and I reminded Kevin you were there, to which Kevin and I both said, "Lucky!" (though being in Disneyland was awesome too). I'm glad you guys had such a good week! You deserved it!
