ONE YEAR AGO!

David and I got married exactly a year ago today. Time really flies when you're in love and having fun. This has been the best year, and I look forward to a million more anniversaries. Happy Anniversary Sweetie! I love you!

Happy THANKSgiving

Happy late Thanksgiving everyone! We had the best holiday this year. My parents and Autumn were able to come to Utah and stay at Melissa's house for the holiday. We had the best time eating, playing games, eating, playing guitar hero, eating some MORE food and PIE, shopping, celebrating Autumn's birthday, and just enjoying one another's company...Oh did I mention the Eating? I am SO excited for Christmas now. And it's officially December 1st so I'm good to listen to Christmas music the rest of the year. It's crazy how quickly time flies. David and I celebrate our ONE YEAR anniversary this weekend which just seeems nuts to me. It really has been a great year and I am so thankful for family and friends and the gospel of Jesus Christ. I hope everyone had a great time.

In-N-Out

That's right folks, In-N-Out is open is Provo, as of yesterday. Of course, being the loving fans of those tasty shakes and animal-style burgers, David and I braved the cold and LONG line to be at the opening. And let me just say, it did not disappoint. Man, that place is tastey. David, of course, was a little sad that you don't have to drive to California to get the experience, but I"m stoked that we can just drive 10 minutes and have such great, cheap burgers. Trust me, David and I will single-handedly be keeping that place in business. See ya later 5 guys and your stupid burgers and fries, HELLO In-N-Out! Of course I took pictures, but do to the same continuing computer issue, you will just be to seeing text instead of fun pictures.

P.S. David is not alone in his annoyance that In-N-Out is so close...We took a picture of us there and sent it to his mom and the only thing she responded was "Great, next thing I know STUPID Utah will have a beach!" Made me laugh :) Don't worry, they will never have a Disneyland, so we'll definitely still be visiting California!!

A change

Well, it's official--I'm no longer a hair VIRGIN! I have been wanting a change for such a long time and David finally gave me the push I needed to DYE MY HAIR! Granted, it's not a HUGE difference but I love it and in the sunlight it does look pretty shnazzie if I don't say so myself. I got a cut and 2 colors at the Paul Mitchel School of Hair. I know what you're thinking: You did WHAT? And the answer is YES! I went there...and you want to know something else? I loved IT! So many people from the complex get their hair done all the time from the school and always tell me how great and cheap it is, so I broke down and did it. It was very terrifying since all I kept thinking about was when my mom once went to a hair school and they ruined her hair. All I can say is that I'm glad that at least the certified lead hair guy cut my bangs and not the girl who cut my hair, who kept saying every few minutes, "Man, I really need to buy new scissors. These ones are the worst and are SO dul!" I concentrated all my efforts on thinking happy thoughts and not moving an INCH, in fear that these not-so-sharp scissors would manage to cut just fine and my hair who end up in a huge 80's-style bombshell. Anyhow, point is, they did a good job and I will be going back there from now on (that is unless they manage to ruin my hair sometime). I mean you can't beat a $6 haircut: trust me, I go to all the cheap places and they're all now like $12.
Oh and my computer is all messed up so I guess you'll have to wait on those pics! :) Sorry

Happy Howl-o-ween

Bone-Jour, that's how a skeleton says hello! :) Happy Halloween!! We had a great time this year between carving our pumpkins and going bowling and out to Denny's for Halloween with some friends. David and I had super lame costumes last year, so this year we stepped it up a notch with the ole creativity! We'll probably be wearing the same costumes next year. I hope everyone had a great holiday. I can't believe it's already November. :)

A new post...get off my back!

Ok, so I know I haven't been the best at keeping up with this blog, but I just can't seem to get into it lately. But since it's already half way through October and my second favorite holiday is in full-bloom, I thought I would join the cool kids again with a new post.

Halloween is the best! if you ask me. I always drag David to all the festivities including the Haunted Forest, the Corn maze, carving pumpkins, renting one scary movie after the other, finding the perfect costume, making pumpkin cheesecake (and oh boy was it delicious!), and enjoying the 13 days of Halloween on ABC Family. I just loved everything Halloween. I love getting candy for the potential kids that will come by our apartment...but since NO ONE ever comes, we just get to eat all the Reeses sticks by ourselves, but have an excuse to buy it. I love having activities and dates planned out for you and all you have to do is show up (and of course spend money)! I love peppermint icecream being available once again in the stores. I love all the colors of the trees. I love driving up the canyon and seeing the beauty, without snow (cross your fingers). I love pumpkin everything and busting out the CocoMotion machine. I love that Halloween is more than half way through the semester and just around the bend is CHRISTMAS (the only holiday that outdoes Halloween). I just love it.

Here are some pics of what David and I have been up to for this Halloween (thus far!):

Vegas, baby!

David and I took a little vaca a couple weeks ago to Vegas. The real reason for the trip was that his cousin, Neil, invited us to go to the skateboarding/snowboarding/motorcross expo. David of course was pumped for the skateboarding portion because some of his idols were supposed to be there. Well, it turns out that the skateboarding part was cancelled and a scary "christian" rock concert was inserted. It was pretty funny because David and I started to look around and we quickly noticed that we were like the only ones in the crowd that weren't gothic or creepy and the next thing we know this HARD CORE ROCK concert was going on (and I do mean HARD CORE!). The bands were supposedly singing lyrics with Christian messages but you could NOT understand it. All I heard was tons of screaming and an occasional "REPENT! REPENT!" Needless to say, we didn't stay long!

We ended up just walking around the strip, going out to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, and swimming in our plush hotel. We stayed at this place called SouthPointe that is approx. 5 minutes from the strip so it was SUPER CHEAP but the rooms were amaz-za-zing! It was the nicest hotel David or I had ever stayed in. Next time we go to Vegas, we're def staying there again. We had so much fun and it was nice to get away! (The In-N-Out wasn't bad either :) )

Here are so pics for your enjoyment...

Bad DAVID!
