Monkey Rock

Last Saturday, we went with our engaged friends Jen & Trevor to Monkey Rock. The water was like ice so I didn't get in. They braved the water for about 20 minutes. Then we had a fire and roasted hotdogs. It was probably the last day of warmth wich makes me really sad. I don't want it to get cold...but it's Rexburg, so it's going to get really, really, REALLY, cold.


He thought by using his rubber dingy he wouldn't get wet. Wrong assumption.


Christian was really cold.

Hooray for girlfriends and birthdays

Christian started his new job as a ticket usher on campus tonight. So my friend Carissa came over and we made some stuff. I made a frame for when Christian and I go to Vegas in a few weeks, and Carissa was working on a canvas for her room. I'm so grateful Carissa skipped out on her social life for a night with me! I just love her. She's my best girl-friend and it's always fun to be around her. If you need a good laugh, just giver a call.

Also this week, we celebrated Carissa's 21st birthday! I made a chocolate pudding cake that looks really awful in these pictures, but tasted really good. Even Christian liked it! Even though there's cream cheese in it...he has the phobia my dad does where they won't eat/drink anything white. So anyways, Carissa and Jen came over and we had birthday cake!

Sitting on the table you'll notice the pumpkin spice Walmart candle that smells sooooo good and was only $3, NOT on sale! That's a pretty good buy. Although, it is almost out and I bought it on Monday...maybe I light it too often, but I just LOVE pumpkin anything. Except for pumpkin pie.

lots of things...

Lots of things have been going on lately. Christian and I started school again last Thursday and we're already suffering from lots of homework. I just keep telling myself, "1 more year. I can do this. 1 more year." We both have hard classes this semester so hopefully we get through it!

Christian's brother Scott turns 20 today, so Happy Birthday Scott! He's serving a mission in Charleston, West Virginia and has been out about 9 months. This is the picture we took for him!

As you may remember, there was a bearded man living with me who claimed to be my husband. The other day as I made my way into the bathroom, I discovered the mountain man.

20 minutes later, he suprised me with this:

Yikes. Hitler has returned.

But since school has started again, he now looks like my husband again. Only, 10 years younger.

My friend Jessica has a vinyl business and helped me out with a cute project. I bought a frame at DI and painted it, then we attached a vinyl calender to the back of the glass. Now I have a cute dry-erase calendar in my house. Thankyou Jessica! I love it so much! Check out her business blog at : http://sayitwithstyle.blogspot.com/

A New Addition To Our Tiny Family

WE HAVE SOME NEWS!


We've added a new family member to our household.
His name is: MARIO!

The other night I had to work until 11pm, and when I got home, I walked in the door and saw this:


He even drew Mario and Luigi on the card.


Sobbing, "I've always wanted my very own Super Nintendo."


Thus, we have found out we both have addictions to Mario. We stayed up till 3am for two nights in a row playing Super Mario Brothers. I. Love. Nintendo.

recent happenings

This week we went to a concert in the park. After a few songs we realized it was a Christian-Rock concert and it was kinda weird. So we left and instead watched the Madison football game at the BYUI staduim.

My friend from work is having a baby so for her shower I made her a canvas.
