General Conference

For conference we went down to Mom's and stayed with her one night and at Angie's the other. Alisha and Karissa also came down, so we were all able to have a fun family weekend. We did the normal, watched conference, ate and played games. There are always new games to add to Phelps stash, which are always getting better. We had a blast.

Duke went fishing with his dad and siblings on Saturday. Using his newly developed talents he caught the most, 5 big ones!

We always love hanging out with family. Thanks for all our wonderful host's!

This was just kind of cool...Duke noticed it on the way down andwe had to take a picture of this memorable moment-always depreciating

Corn mazes and all the fun that goes with them...

We took our nephews to the corn maze and found more fun looking at the animals than anything else. They had all of these animals that were a little different than normal and we had to take a look.

This was some sort of lama, I can't remember was they called it.

Having Kids over...getting prepared

Keith's kids came over, 3 weeks ago, for a fun closing the pool party, we stayed up way too late and had way too much fun. After the pool we played guitar hero, which Adeline and Lora love and set up their sleeping bags on the floor. Henry went into our room, and saw our new bed, climbed up on it and said "Ahh, SOO nice!" He had put his hands above his head and relaxed. That boy cracks me up...they are such cute kids.

Jammin'

Peaches!

Brooke had gotten a bunch of peaches she wanted to can and spent all day with Mom Debbie making jelly and sliced peaches. To finish up Bill and I helped finish and got a great picture of all of us in our aprons. We love fall and someday I will do my own major canning for my food storage.

30.5 Weeks!

I'm am really pregnant now! And feeling her kick like crazy, I think she is done being in my belly. We've decided to name her Brinley Nicole (maybe Brinlee) unless she really doesn't look like one. We are getting more and more excited every day.

Our Secret is Out!

It's a GIRL! And we can't wait...Duke has been doing all the shopping and is loving the idea. I'm 25 1/2 weeks pregnant, so I have a week and a half until I'm in the 3rd Trimester. It has now started to go so fast. I can feel her a ton more, it is so fun!

We're Back!!

Our quick update:

So we've moved back home, and boy does it feel good. We had a good trip back stopping to see family on the whole way back. After a 9 hour drive we got to Jan's and had FHE with her and Angie and Mom and the rest of the bunch. It was fun. Then up to Mom's. I had a great sleep and ready for more visiting. We saw Grandparents, Zina, and Duke's parents. It was exciting and I'm looking more pregnant which is more exciting. We stopped to see Duke's mission president on the way out of SLC. Good guy but doesn't wear a belt, a little weird. We met him at his law office downtown.

After getting home Kendra and Jeff came down for the weekend so we could celebrate what we are having! I won't tell yet because the siblings all don't know and won't for a couple weeks. I'll give you some pictures to try to guess because I'm too excited to completely keep it a secret :)

I worked Saturday, which was good but being on my feet for 8 hours was a stretch after my relaxing summer.

We start school today and are looking forward to a crazy busy semester!

Holy cow! Every time I look at this I can't get over how cool it is and crazy too!

Aren't these perfect little feet!
