Wow! It's been a busy month full of visiting family, fun trips, and being sick!

At the end of September we drove to SLC and went to The Killers concert with some friends. We got their early and were totally close. It was so fun and they sounded great. Brandon Flowers isn't half bad looking either.

Over UEA my whole family went to Ashland, OR to visit my brother Dave and his family. It had been a long time since we've all been together. Our time in Oregon was spent fishing, visiting the Redwoods, and enjoying each others company. Kate, however wasn't used to sharing the spotlight with her cute cousin Wren. She screamed and begged for attention the whole time. Not so fun for mom!

Next Konan and I planned a relaxing getaway to Tahiti. Well the day before we're supposed to leave I'm checking the weather and it looks like some major tropical storm is passing through. So last minute we scramble and decide to head to France. The first couple of days we rented a car and drove through the Loire Valley visiting the areas famous chateaus. We finished our trip with a couple days in Paris. We visited places we hadn't been before like the Paris sewers. I can thank my co-worker Mario for that one!

This past week Kate and I have been horribly sick. On Halloween night instead of dressing Kate up she got to visit insta-care. She had a bad ear infection. Who knows what I had but I could barely move for a couple of days and still have the lingering cough...blah! Hopefully we're done be sick for the season. I know that's asking a lot.

Anyway enjoy the pictures...
