spare time

So I thought only working 3 days a week was going to make me go crazy cause I would be bored all the time but I am actually quite enjoying it! I have started making these fabric necklaces for my family for christmas and then started getting people who wanted to buy them so it keeps me so busy! Along with playing with my pup of course (shes abnormally human for a dog) and spoiled. Im so excited for the holidays and to get together with family!!

Find of the week!!! YUM!!!

Red velvet chocolate milk and mint chocolate milk from target! A must try. I am currently obsessed and in love with it. Give it a try and you can thank me later.

Life in a nutshell

Ok so I have not blogged in awhile so theres lots to catch up on but dont want to bore anyone to death so ill do the easy bullet points!

1. We were waldo and wenda (even though know one knew who i was) for halloween and we had a blast at our friends brit and parks halloween bash!

2. Oakley did not like her halloween outfit very much and tried to rip it off until I finally took it off of her after 3 minutes. My pup is now 5 months old!

3.Matt has an interview in VEGAS for PA school and we are sooooo excited! Wish us luck on January 5th!

4. We get to go to cali for thanksgiving in aprox 11 days! Cant wait!

5. I have officially started paying loans and am now wishing I never went to school blah!

6. We have a little "mouse" problem and I captured one under a bowl. I was very proud of myself.

7. Officially all my best friends from hygiene school are now pregnant! Im so excited for them! It makes me contemplate "hey maybe i should get on the ban wagon and have a kid"........then i see all the crazy children at church and decide I can wait a little while longer. Ill just play with theirs :)!!

8. I hope everyone has a wonderful night!!

My cute baby girl!

My new hobby

So ever since I can remember I hated sewing! I can always remember having to do sewing activities in mutual while the boys got to go on hikes and play sports and such and I just thought it was so unfair! But for some reason I have developed this weird "sewing bug" and now I'm addicted!! Thanks to my friend Jocey I made the cutest little baby dress (no I'm not baby hungry) and these cute bibs (I promise I'm not baby hungry, they are GIFTS!!)! So easy!! I have now invested in a sewing machine and hope to get more acquainted with it :)!

A very fashionable bib i must say

cutest dress! Who knows if a baby can evern fit in it but its just so cute

My new friend

My other new hobby is church related! I just got called to be an assistant in the beehives! Im soooo excited to be in young womens! Im sure I will learn more than the girls will and I think it will be such a good learning experience! So between work, young womens, and trying to become the next martha stuart I keep pretty busy and I love it! O ya and of course taking care of my puppy child.

I LOVE FALL!!!

Fall is my favorite time of the year but it seems like it goes by so fast! One minute the leaves are changing colors and the next there is snow! Blah! Not looking forward to snow! We went on a hike with dustin and kylee up near sundance and it was BEAUTIFUL! We didnt quite time the hike right and ended up hiking in the dark most of the way back but it was an adventure!



Thanks for inviting us ky and dust!

Going to gardner village in the fall is a must! The have all their cute witches decorating the place and its such a fun atmosphere! My family came into town so we had a girls night and went there!


Last night we went with some other couples to hee-haw farms in pleasant grove! We had fun scaring the others in the corn maze, sliding down these funky slides, and going through their haunted house! The scariest moment was captured by matt. So me and kort decided we wanted a picture by the corn husks. We were waiting for matt to take the picture and right as he said 1,2,3.....this monster who had been hiding their the whole time jumped out and did the scariest growl i have ever heard! And ofcourse matt has pushed the picture button by then so he caught our faces just as the monster came out.....again remember this picture is not staged in any way..

thats pure fear on our faces....you can notice the green monster coming at us on the left side! What a fun filled night!! Here is the after photo of how we wanted it to look..

Much better! :)

Giant pumpkins


I am looking forward to more haunted houses before halloween comes! I love being scared! Matt is finally fulfulling his dream of being waldo for halloween! And I had no idea there was a girl waldo named wenda so I am now roped into being wenda for halloween. Not the most exciting thing in the world but o well! Well I hope everyone is enjoying their scarfs, hot chocolate, pumpkin scented candles, and fall leaves!

Just for fun

I heard something in the laundry room the other night so I went in to see what it was and this is what I found......oakley with her head stuck in her doggy treat bag....

She is a handful....but she just loves to help aound the house

Her favorite toy so far is the toilet scruber

Anniversary and Bear Lake

A couple weeks ago we celebrated our 2 year anniversary! We went up to Logan "where it all happened" to get the sparks back as matt would say. We stayed at a hotel and went to all of our favorite places to eat. We went and did a session at the logan temple and then saturday went to bear lake and my grandparents took us out to eat! It was a nice relaxing weekend and I am looking forward to another wonderful year of marriage! (if we make it ;)

For labor day weekend we went up to bear lake again with my hygiene friends Lizzie and Britney and their hubbies to Lizzie and robs amazing cabin! We went boating, had a bonfire, road 4-wheelers, and ate our hearts out! yum! It was a blast! Then on sunday before we went home we went to minetonka caves. Brittney had never been to a cave so she was loving it. I was sad to leave bear lake. I did learn some new things though:
#1-lizzie is the most fit prego mom I have ever seen....i still have a bigger belly and I aint even prego!
#2-parker has the worst farts ever
#3-matt is obsessed with wake surfing
#4-britney is the sweetest girl I know
#5-rob is a trooper for driving the boat during the winds and being pelted with water


The caves-it was freezing inside

I HATE cold water!

Thanks gang for a great weekend!
