Mission Call and Halloween!

My roommate Amy Alletto recieved her mission call a couple of weeks ago and she can't stop smiling. She is going to Kyiv, Ukraine! She leaves the middle of January. I am going to miss her so much but I know she is going to be an amazing missionary. The day before Halloween Ann and I made dinner and carved a pumpkin. I forgot how fun it is to scrape out the insides of a pumpkin!

On Halloween night Eliza and I drove up to South Salt Lake with a few friends in the ward to a Halloween Party John Hoyt and a couple of his friends had at their little house. They had a fire and lots of treats.

I finally ran my 5K!
On Saturday I did a fun run in Orem for Make a Wish Foundation. After running all summer and was wishing I would have ran a 5K but I finally did it. I ran the whole thing and it was a lot of fun. I ran with my roommates Eliza and Kristen and Jeremy and Josh who are in our ward.

We made it to the Elite 8!
Our flag football team is in the elite 8 in the second division. We had a bye the first round of the tournament and then won our game on Thursday. The tournament is now double elimination so there isn't quite as much pressure but we are hoping to make it all the way to the championship!
We will play this Wednesday and Thursday.

Steve Merrill (our coach), Stacie, Eliza, Kayla, Emily, Amy, Kristen, Heather, and Annika This is our team and fans from from the ward who came out in the cold to cheer us on.
