Lots to look forward too

Ben and I are coming upon our "busy season". We have so many fun things in the next 4 months.
This year we are starting it off with some white water rafting at the green river with my Mom, Brothers, and our family friends, the Higleys.
When we return I will be busy with bridal showers and bachelorette parties for Brynn's wedding. Starting out October is the wedding itself, then Ben and I pack our bags again and head out for the open road, heading east, to see the Gotsch Family and some old friends. While we are gone we will also celebrate our 1st Anniversary!!!
Dressing up form my 2nd favorite holiday, Halloween, comes next!!
Ben turns 29!
Following that my favorite meal of the year, Thanksgiving shadowed by a day of intense shopping and laughter!
Finally my birthday rolls around with my first twin digits, 22!
Then We all LOVE christmas.
Last we celebrate the end of our spectacular year with New Years Eve.
So as you can tell we are into the "Busy Season" It will be so much fun, and I'm sure I'll update with pictures and details of all the many things to come!

What a Week.

This week has just been insane! Work has been crazy, home has been crazy and now I think I'm going crazy!
Ben had the week off work because of some bad planning on our part, so he spent 5 days deep cleaning our house! Which is so great and the office is starting to actually look like an office which is wonderful! Before it looked like a junk room, full of spare beds, a huge desk, and a ton of rubber maids. We got rid of the Bed and have started a complete de-junking and re-organization of that room. It's funny anytime you deep clean it seems to get messier before it gets cleaner, so its nice to be on the cleaner side of the mountain that was the spare room!
While Ben has been home cleaning I've been out working! I put in a lot of work this week and last, I taught an Event Planning Class, which included planning graduation, the kids really seemed to enjoy it, probably more then me since they were the ones leaving and I was the one running around like a chicken with my head cut off. It turned out nice, and everyone seemed to have a good time. The best part is, its over!
I've been having these dizzy, faint spells for about a month (and no I'm not pregnant) so I went to the doctor to see if he could help me figure out what it could be. The Doctor sent me to get a CT scan to check for blood cots, which I'm glad they didn't find but his nurse called me in for an appointment monday morning, and it turns out they found something else in the scan completely unrelated. Well because I don't 100% understand what's going on, I'm not going to share to much detail on my blog but I will say I do have to have all sorts of tests and go to specialists and its stressing me out, and frankly I'm freaked out. The Doctor says its probably all caused from my birth control, so now I'm off the pill and waiting to go see more doctors. So please keep us in your prayers life has just took us down a new path, so I guess we'll hang on for the ride.
On a good note we decided to take a road trip to see all the new babies (Congrats Merrill and Briahna, also Welcome to our Grand Nephew Jason) and old friends and family in the midwest. We'll be going over our Anniversary, I'm excited to see some places I've never seen and be somewhere I've never been, there is such a thrill in that.
Next week should be another "fun" filled week! I have meetings monday, giving my Mom some curb appeal Tuesday along with a a baby photo shoot, The rest of Brynn and Carlos' Engagements and an adventure filled day in provo on Wednesday, back to curb appeal Thursday and Friday and maybe a day off on Sat (? doubt it). Life would be boring if it wasn't busy.
