Alright so I'm pretty sure that Mom has pretty much got everyone on the ball but just in case you've forgotten I need Dad, Jeff, Donald, and Doug to go get fitted for a tux. And just in case anyone cares this is how November 14th is going to go down. Anyone with a temple recommend needs to be seated in the sealing room at the Salt Lake Temple at 9:10 am (a half hour before the sealing begins), that means you're going to want to be in the waiting room around 8:45 am. The closest and best parking is at the conference center underground. Janna and I will be getting there at about 8:30 am and I'm not sure when the witnesses need to be there but its probably the same time as us. We should be getting out of the temple right around 10:15 am or so, then we'll be taking pictures until the luncheon.
We had originally said the luncheon was going to start at 12:30 but we might not start it til 1:00 pm so that we don't rush our photographer. We're going to have it at Mi Ranchito (click to see the website) I think, and everyone that reads this plus any of your family are invited. Here is a map. I don't really know how long it will take but I'm guessing a couple of hours.
The reception is going to be at Heritage Gardens in Sandy. You can click on the link to see it and click here for a map. The reception is going to start at 6 pm and go til 9 pm. We are going to be serving dinner and hopefully it will be something everyone will eat. I know we're having sushi but I think we're going to have chicken for normal people too. As far as the guys tuxes go there is going to be a changing room at the reception center and we can just leave them there and the tux place will pick them up, so bring clothes to change into for afterward.
I think Mom has already got motel rooms but I also have my house with a spare futon and foam pad if anyone needs it.
If you have any questions just let me know

Two Jobs is Better than One...right?
So things are moving along quite well over here in Utar. Janna is coming along great with all the wedding plans and its beginning to look like this thing might actually happen. For anyone who didn't know we are actually buying a home; its on the border of American Fork and Highland and actually right up the street from John Succo's....they don't know yet and it may stay that way for a while. Its a pretty nice place, basically a duplex and we're renting out the top floor to Janna's brother Matt while we live downstairs...I'll post some pics once we actually get it. Its been a really long and drawn out process and its taken far longer than we thought it would to get it but it actually looks like we're finally going to close and sign papers tomorrow.
After moving back from Arizona this summer I was jobless for a while so after about a month of enjoying doing nothing and then a month of hard job searching I managed to get two part time jobs. I'm working as a jeweler at Macy's Department store 16 hours a week and as a youth mentor at Telos, a treatment facility for troubled teens. So all in all I've got a pretty busy schedule but everything seems to be working out ok so far...at least I haven't flunked out of school yet.
Phyllis is doing well also in case anyone actually cares. She had a time period there when she was crazy and would attack anything and everything but seems to be mellowing out now. I think she's going to be really big too. Oh so when can you get a cat fixed and declawed? I'm thinking we need to get on that soon so let me know.
Apart from that all not much is going on...hope everyone can make it out for the wedding!

Update
Sorry I haven't written for so long...I haven't had anything worth talking about.
Here's a quick update on what's been happening, even though I've talked to most of you so you already know everything that's going on.
First off, my Idaho hunting trip was pretty much a waste. The country was really pretty, but that was about the extent of the enjoyment. We wound up riding/walking/struggling 32 miles from where we parked the horse trailers, and only managed to kill 2 deer (1 small forked horn and 1 medium 3 point). No one killed an elk, though I missed a pretty good bull running through a burned out lodgepole thicket. I managed to have one good wreck with my horses and got run over a little bit, but walked away from the mess in pretty good shape. We saw more people in the Frank Church in 1 week than the TOTAL of the amount of people we've run into in the last 7 years in Blue Lake, so have no intention of doing this trip again. As it stands right now, I think I'm done with Idaho for a couple of years. Oregon has more elk and deer, and is much cheaper.
Doug got a concussion playing against KU last Saturday, and will be out of commission until next Friday. He got knocked out for a few seconds, and had problems speaking for a couple of hours after the game. He doesn't remember much of anything prior to the hit that took him out, so evidently got whacked on pretty good. He's pissed that he can't play tomorrow against Mazama...it's homecoming, and Mazama's defense is set up to guard against a passing offense so Doug would probably do really well. He's been averaging close to 95 yards per game, and leads Henley on tackles also. His coach told your mother that he's by far the best offensive and defensive player on the team...not a bad compliment.
We'll be going deer hunting this weekend, but since we're hunting in the stomping grounds of our local tribe of Lamanites I'm not too optimistic that we'll be doing any shooting. The weather is supposed to be cool and wet so that might help, but I know what few deer the Klamaths have left have been harassed by cougars so the chances of success are slim. Oh well...Doug and I should have a good time anyway.
Congratulations are due to Emme for being such a tough little kid. Broken bones aren't much fun, and from what Laurie said she's doing really well.
That's about it for now...I'll write next week to let you know how our deer hunt goes.
