Fall Time
November 10, 2009
I love this time of year. I love the weather and I love planning for the holidays…and then of course, the holidays.
We’ve had an exciting fall. Patrick started the MBA program at BYU. He leaves every morning at a time I’ve never experienced awake (he claims its 6:30, but I swear its much earlier), and gets home late. He’s traveling a lot right now: Minneapolis, New York, and San Francisco – networking, interviewing and groveling…its quite impressive. He’s committed to getting a job very few get and even more so, many of whom have been laid-off: a job in investment banking (in the debt capital markets, to be specific. Dont worry – I don’t know what that is either). Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures from his travels, so I’ll move on.
I was sworn-in as an attorney late October. This has been a long-awaited day.

I’m working for Hoskins Legal (a firm in Davis County) part-time. I work in the office two days a week practicing family law and estate planning. I work from home a few hours as well while Ava is napping or in the evening.

On the Left – my sister-in law, Andrea and her baby, Trey.
On the Right – my good friends, Randy and Pam Hales. They are always so supportive!
In the middle – my parents, Patrick, me and Ava-baby

what Patrick will do for the camera…:)
With Patrick traveling, Ava and I have had our own adventures…pumpkin patches, taking baths to break-up the day, and of course, our annual friend Halloween party (no costumes this year so we could go to the pumpkin parade),

you look as beautiful as ever. Congrats! You have quite the busy life and I bet Patrick will get an offer. I mean, who wouldn’t hire him?!
