Halloween Dance!

Hey everyone!
So Molly posted of her experience at the dance i just wanted to say a little bit more and my experience.
It was Awesome! and like Molly said, it was also one of my favorite dances so far, and i have been to a ton of dances!
It was so much fun but so hot! but since we were having so much fun it didn't matter. (We found out later that the air conditioning wasn't working!)
I hung out with the same people Molly did but i also hung out with my friends Jacob, Emily and Katrina.
So i guess i just wanted to say that the dance was super fun! and that I love this stake and these friends!

Stake Dance!

Hey Everyone!
Can i just say... my life is AMAZING!!! I love my life!
So anyway with that out of the way. Last Saturday the 29th of October, we had a multi stake dance!
It was the funnest dance that i have ever been too, and that's saying a ton because I've been to tons of really fun dances.
There were like six different stakes there, and we were in the Stake center ( also my church building ) so it was in the gym and it was packed with people from wall to wall, so when you were dancing you would bump into other people, and especially during the fast songs because we were all dancing super crazy, it was so much fun.
So i spent pretty much the whole three hours with my friends Jayson, Matt and Riley. we had so much fun, during the fast songs we all goofed off so much, we danced ridiculously and jumped up and down and totally all got into it, so the dance was three hours long and we danced the whole entire time! we were all so tired by the end, but it was so totally worth it!
I also hung out with my friends: Charles, Brenton, Joseph, Logan, jaelyn, tara, Emily, Hayley, and a lot of others.
Even with there being six stakes I only danced with my friends from my stake and one guy from the Cheyenne WY stake.
I danced Like five slow songs with my friend Matt, and like 5 with Jayson, and a few with all my other guy friends.
It was really hot in the gym so one time Riley, Jayson, Matt, Allison and I went out side to cool off.
It was a Halloween dance so tons of people were dressed up in costumes, it was really fun to look at everyone, Riley and Matt, Both for their costumes were really fat guys with black Afros, but the costumes were just full of air so you could still dance with them, they were really funny looking though. :D
Anyway it was so much fun, and I became such good friends with all my friends here.
Sorry We had so much fun that i never even thought of taking pictures, so that's why i wrote a lot.
We have another dance this Friday so I will maybe take some pictures then!

SNOW!

"Lake Sherwood" Our neighborhood lake

On Wednesday the 26th of October, we had our first snow fall!
It was supposed to be a "light" snow fall. if this was a "light" snow i am super worried what a "Heavy" snow is going to be like! It snowed about 10" to a foot. It is awesome packing snow, so perfect for building Snowman! We haven't gone out and played in it yet, it's just to cold. But for the last couple of days it has been sunny and the snow has been melting so before it all melts away i am planing on going out and playing in it.
It always snows before Halloween here so we all knew it was going to come.
It was about 15 degrees on Wednesday so really cold! And in the morning going to seminary it is only 20 at the highest, so it's been cold, but i love snow and I'm excited to go skiing this winter.
So here are some pictures of our "light" snow fall.

On Friday the 21 of October We went to a party with some stake friends ( "our weekly get together" my Uncle says) We get together with these friends at least once a week, plus we see them every morning at seminary, so we are all becoming super good friends!
So on Friday we hung out and just mainly goofed around and talked the whole time.
We were going to play night games but we went out side and all just talked and never got around to playing any games. we also watched a movie but didn't really pay attention to it.
Here are some pictures!

Last night, the 20th of October Molly and I went to a Fort Collins High School foot ball game with some friends. (last week we had all gone to the Home coming foot ball game and it was so much fun so we all decided to go again together, and this time we got pictures!)
We went with our Friends Riley, Hayley, and Matt, and then met up with our friends Jason and Charles who were playing in the band but would come over when they weren't playing.
None of us know much about foot ball we mainly just go to hang out.
So here are some pictures!
* Looking through the pictures we noticed that we didn't have any of Matt or Jayson really so sorry! we will try to get some pictures of them soon!

the view on our way up


Starting our journey to the top!


On October 15th My family hiked up a mountain 10 minuets from our house. We hiked to the very top. The view was amazing! It took around 2 hours up and and hour and a half coming down.
On the way down we ran out of water (aren't we smart!) So for the last hour My cousin and i felt like we were going to die! Luckily we survived.
As soon as we could see the parking lot we just booked it down the mountain cause there is a drinking fountain there.
So it was a fun other then almost dieing.
here are some pictures!

The Temple and The Zoo!

Just a picture i thought was pretty!


On October 12th Molly and I went down to Denver, Co with our parents. We first went to the Temple and molly and I did baptisms for the dead while our parents did a session. It was amazing! the temple is beautiful!
Molly and i got out before our parents so during that time we both read scriptures on the temple grounds and took pictures. I love going to the temple! it is always just so amazing!
Once our parents were done we went and got lunch and then drove to the Denver Zoo.
We had to park like a mile away and so we ate lunch on our way walking to the zoo.
It was an awesome Zoo! and it is so much bigger then the Fort Wayne Zoo which we are used to.
We walked around the whole zoo and it took around 4 or 5 hours. My favorite animals there were the tigers, the polar bear, and the elephants!
So here are some pictures!
