BYU Football

So anyone who knows me knows I am a huge BYU Football fan! I've been going to them for years and never miss a game if I can help it. This season has been so fun! I've been able to sit with some of my great friends from Jerusalem at the home games, and for the away games we've had awesome football watching parties! Saturday November 8, when we played San Diego State, I realized that it was my last home game I'd be going to as a student. The time seems to have just flown by. Anyway, here are some fun pictures from this season. Go Cougars!!!

New Nephew

On October 15, 2008 my new nephew, Marcus Spencer White, was born. He was 7 lbs. 9 oz. and 19 and 1/2 inches long. Glenn sent us a picture of him as soon as he was born, and we were all so excited! I am so grateful a new little spirit has entered our family. I am so grateful families are forever! Anyway, all of these pictures are ones sent to us by Glenn and those posted on Glenn and April's blog, but I thought it would be fun to share them as well.

Laura's Mission Call

So on Friday, October 24 we all gathered at our house to watch Laura open her mission call. Dad, Mom, Krista, Lyssa, Amy, Dave, Courtney and I were there, with Heather, Spencer, and April on different phones. Laura was both excited and nervous to open her call, and we all waited with anticipation as she read, "Dear Sister White, You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Italy Catania Mission." The look on Laura's face was one of surprise and happiness. She was so excited and couldn't stop smiling. We're all so excited for her! She will leave on January 28, 2009. Congratulations Sister White!!!!

Fun At Zurchers

In another August activity, Krista, me, and my cousin Melissa went to a party store called Zurchers and took some crazy and fun pictures. It was one of the most random things I've ever done, but tons of fun!

Glenn, April, Miriam, and Bekah Visit

In August, Glenn, April, and the girls came out from New Jersey for a visit. It was so wonderful to see them! They stayed for a little over a week with us, which was so much fun. Every morning Miriam would get up and go in the Toy Room to play. Those were some of my favorite times of their stay! We went swimming a lot, went to Seven Peaks, the mall, and just played around at home. We also had a fun day at the park where we played tag, mother-may-I, and hide and seek. The visit went way too fast. I wish they could have stayed longer, but we had lots of fun while they were here! I Love my Family!

Music for a Summer Evening on August 5, 2008

In August Dad, Mom, Krista, and I, along with some friends, attended a Mormon Tabernacle Choir Concert up in the Tabernacle. The performance was called "Music for a Summer Evening", The first part of the performance included LDS artists such as Kenneth Cope, Hillary Weeks, and Michael McLean, among others. Those wonderful performances just set the stage for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. You could feel the spirit so strong in the Tabernacle as the choir performed. My favorite moment of the night was when they sang "The Battle Hymn of the Republic". The music and the words are so inspiring, and the choir sang it magnificently. I was glad I was able to share this night with my family and with one of my good friends Elise Gubler. It really was a wonderful night.
