*Dr. Appointment*...

Last Tuesday I went down to Primary Children's Hospital for another Dr. Appt..... Nothing new!! So frustrating when they can't figure out what is wrong with you even after you have been to hundreds of Dr. Appts...... :-/ I go back on Nov. 1st to get scoped which won't be fun at all!! At least they will put me to sleep so I won't be able to feel anything!! :) Hoping for good news....... :)

 Waiting for Dr. Jensen to come check me...... :)

 My Mom comes with me to all my Dr. Appts...... :) She's always there for me and will always be there to support me no matter what!! :) Love ya Mom!!

Crossing my fingers for good news......... :)

Last Sunday was General Conference...We headed to Park City to watch it with my Grandparents, Uncles, Aunt, and cousins cause they were staying up there!! :) I ALWAYS look forward to hearing from all the speakers cause most the time they are answers to my prayers...... :)

 

I think its amazing how boys can now go on missions at the age of 18, and girls at age 19!!! :) Thats a huge change...pretty neat though!!

 Taking lots of notes..... :)

 The kids stayed entertained by all the games they played.....

 I filled six pages in my notebook full of amazing things they talked about during Conference. :) 

 

These are some of my favorite quotes they mentioned......

*Book Signing*...

On October 6th my Mom and I went down to Salt Lake for a book signing at Deseret Book... We met soo many wonderful people that have some pretty neat inspirational stories... :) While we were at Deseret Book Pres. Uchtdorf's wife walked right passed us which was way cool!! It was crowded because of General Conference!! :)

 

The main reason we went to the book signing was to meet Stephanie Nielson...then we realized a lot of other author's were there which made it even more special!! :)

 Heading to City Creek. :)

 While we were getting ready to walk into Deseret Book Travis from the movie "17 Miracles" was just right outside!! We talked to him for a few minutes and had to get a picture with him... :) He is soo nice and soo funny!! I was soo happy that we got to meet him that day.... :)

 It was crazy because my Mom had just finished this book called "Let It Go" by Chris Williams a few weeks ago and as we were walking around the store there he was!!! :) My Mom was so excited to meet him...He got in a car accident with his family 5 years ago because of a drunk driver...his wife and 2 out of the 5 kids died...saddest thing ever! He got remarried a few years ago and had another child with his new wife..In this book he wrote, he tells his whole story and how he was able to forgive the drunk driver right after the accident...he's a really amazing man that has been through so much!! Chris' message is to all who have suffered or gone through trials..we just need to lay down our burdens and LET IT GO. :)

All us ladies in line to meet Stephanie Nielson...We were like 3rd in line!!! :)

 Her sign... I couldn't wait to meet her!! :)

 Meeting Stephanie Nielson "Nie Nie at the book signing!! :) She is an amazing woman who survived a plane crash with her husband 4 years ago and it burned 80% of her body. She is an inspiration to ALL of us.... :) I follow her blog and love reading her story...I had her sign my book that she wrote and I am so excited to start reading it!!! :)

 

 Stephanie is so nice and I loved visiting with her about her cute family for a few minutes... :) follow her blog at nieniedialogues.blogspot.com to see her amazing story...... :)

 Of course we had to fit in some shopping!!! :):):) We found some great deals....and I loved every bit of it.... :)

After shopping at City Creek we headed back to go eat dinner at Pizzeria with the whole Norris side.... :) The boys had just gotten done with Priesthood and its a tradition with the Norris' to eat dinner afterwards.... :)
My Mom and I went to Lee's Market that night and thought this pumpkin was so cute!! :) Its made out of pop..Sunkist, Pepsi, and 7-Up!! Pretty cool right?!?! :)
It was a wonderful day!!!!
