Updates

I know I've been a little slack in updating this, so I'm gonna do a little catching up.

My two sister-in-laws threw me a baby shower on the Saturday before Halloween. One of the women from my ward helped, and we had a great turn-out. A bunch of people from my ward, and some friends from work came, and we had a great time! I am so grateful they put it together for me!

Halloween was an awesome event in the Perkins house! I made homemade pumpkin pies, and we got together with Bear's brothers and their families. We barbequed, carved pumpkins, and then the kids got to go trick-or-treating. When dinner was over, the Bear and his brothers took one of the jack-o-lanterns and cut the bottom off. They then proceeded to wear said pumpkin on their heads. But... it gets better. Out came the Sterno gel, and the pumpkin was covered, and then lit on fire!

This was after the fire went out, and Bear was sitting on his motorcycle. The neighborhood kids loved it! Everyone was stopping to take pictures as they were trick-or-treating.



This is me at 34 weeks, right before Halloween.

This is me at 35.5 weeks, on November 9th. It was really early in the morning, and we were waiting for Richard and Jessica to come pick us up so we could go to the temple.
That morning, we were able to go to the temple for Richard and Jessica. They were able to recieve their endowments, and then be sealed together. It was an awesome experience to be their escorts, and be there with them as they got to go through the temple for the first time. Being pregnant in the temple was so incredible. Tyler kicked and squirmed through the whole endowment session, and then calmed down just as the sealing was starting. I have no doubt that he knew where we were, and was excited about it.

More to come...
