Monday me and Beck drove down to an apple orchard with my friend Sarah and her little gal Ava. The orchard was fun they let you take a bag and a map to go pick yourself some apples, but we were too lazy to treck through the orchards with our strollers so we just bought some apples at the front which I'm pretty sure defeated the purpose of going but we did go on a fun hay ride and actually the real reason we wanted to go was because it's a perfect place to drive to see all the leaves because they are BEAUTIFUL right now! I've seen a ton of people blogging about how much they love the fall and I'm going to agree with all of them, I love EVERYTHING about this time of year.

Visitors
Last week my mom dad and Dayne came out to visit YAY!!!! I can't even explain how excited I was for them to come visit, ask any of my friends out here I've been talking about them coming since the day we got here. I wish they would just move out here but I'll settle for a visit for now. The only downer was me and my mom got sick, and it was cold and rainy the entire time they were here which was ironic because it was perfect weather till the day they got here and started again the day they left.
We went to Monticello, Williamsburg, and DC while they were here...but I think that the place that my dad was most excited about going to was Trader Joes hahaha he went bananas when I told him we had one close to us. We probably could have done even more if BOTH of my parents hadn't turned 50 this month AHHH!! We let them think we were seeing a lot of stuff while they were here but we really didn't want to overwhelm the oldies.
My camera wasn't working so I only got 3 pictures which doesn't do justice for all the fun things we did together but what can you do. We even had fun just bumming around the house letting Beck entertain us all, I can't wait till they come out again, and it better be soon!! While we were in Williamsburg I ran into one of the nurses that I worked with right before we moved from Utah...wierd! I didn't know even she had moved out here, so I was extremely shocked when I passed her on the streets of Williamsburg, talk about a double take!!
Me and Dane wanted to impress my family when they came to visit so we got our curtains up in the living room and painted our bedroom. I haven't done curtains before, and I can't believe how much they added to the room, I'm pretty excited about them.
I'm also pretty excited about our greenish yellow walls in our bedroom, definately a color we will look back on and make fun of in a few years but I'm pumped about how it turned out.
And whats a post without some random cute pictures of Beck. I've felt bad for him since my family left cause there's no way I can entertain him as much as they did so I think he's felt lonely after being the star of the show for a whole week.

State Fair
The other night we went to the state fair with our friends Rich and Brityn, they're the only other first year medical students in our ward so they have no choice but to be our friends cause they are going to be stuck with us for quite awhile. We saw some bull riding, gigantic rabbits, baby chicks hatching from their eggs, giant pumkins, and interesting people. But the best part of all was that along with Rich, I experienced my first funnel cake- and because of funnel cakes I don't think I will ever miss a state fair again.
