Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!
     I love this time of year, Christmas time just has a feeling that no other holiday can bring! The tree is up and decorated, the stockings are hung, and the house smells of cinnamon; we are ready for Christmas!!! There are many reasons why I love Christmas! The snow, call me crazy but shoveling the snow is one of my favorite things to do! I have been sick for the past few weeks! One day while it was snowing I got up put on my coat and gloves and fought to get past Dallas to go and shovel...but he wouldn't let me! I love shopping and buying presents for family and friends, even if I really have no idea what to buy! But most important I love the meaning of Christmas, the birth of our savior, serving others who may be in need, and spending time with OUR family! I think that is really why I love the season! Last week we were able to attend with my family the First Presidency Christmas Devotional, that really invited the spirit of Christmas to be in our home, and see what we can do to help those around us!
     I just finished school for this semester and am gearing up to go back in just a few weeks, and guess what??? I'll have a buddy joining me in the quest of school!! Dallas is starting his first semester at Weber State, i'm pretty excited!! We have been so busy each day it feels like we are running around like chickens with our heads cut off! We are both working hard and loving this time of year! Anyway I just wanted to write a quick post, even though it is boring without pictures!! I'm sure I'll have some after the Holidays!

   

Two of a Kind

This Halloween we had a blast, from shopping for a costume to eating lots of DELICIOUS food (the reason for the season!) We first had to find our costume, well we really wanted to be thing 1 and thing 2 but we only found a costume for thing 1, didn't work! So our next idea was just head to savers and see what ideas came to us! So this is what we came up with...its not a unique idea but we dressed the part! We went trick or treating with my cousins for a while, until it was too cold and we chickened out! Then we headed to my moms house and hung out with my family, it was such a fun holiday!

Us as NERDS! The best part, we really didn't have to dress up too much!

haha, I loved this sign, needed it to complete the outfit! The funniest was

 cousins actually kicking Dallas!

Here is the whole clan! Everyone looked so cool and awesome! Especially Heather, if you can't see her she is in the back with the mustache!

The adorable ninja turtle, Brigham!

Look at Ty, he is adorable as a frog! He is the cutest, happiest baby!!

A couple days before we carved our pumpkins! I had so much fun doing, its my favorite part of the holiday.

Do you know what this is? Don't worry I didn't really either!

Another update, yesterday I had so much fun! I love TUESDAYS because it's my day off from work, and Dallas who is extra nice skips school so we can have a fun day together! Dallas put me in the car and surprised me by taking me to Gardner Village, definitely not a boys favorite place! We shopped there for a while, and I got a couple of fabric kits I am so excited to make (actually last night I put the homework down and got half of one of my projects done...sewing is so relaxing to me!) Then we went to In-N-Out, that was the deal! I loved yesterday, so fun! And plus this weather! who couldn't be happy this time of year?

Here we are at Gardner! Doesn't he look so happy, haha!

His favorite part was chasing the chickens, at least there was something to entertain him!

Sorry, don't zoom in on this picture! But here we at In-N-Out, I accidentally, totally accidentally ordered a 2x2! That is 2 hamburger patties on this sandwich, I was shocked! I ate the whole thing but couldn't eat my fries!

JUST FYI...

      I'm sitting here on the couch...supposed to be doing homework, but instead i'm blogging! As I am sitting here I am looking at the back of Dallas and thinking to myself,I really do love my husband!You'd think I would already know that, we are married! But right now as he makes a few funny noises and looks at me strangely, it hits me I love this boy! He always makes me laugh! This is Dallas's last sentence he said to me, "what if some crazy guy just came banging on our door? What would you do?" Oh he loves to scare me, and ask "what if's" questions! Dallas has some awesome dance moves, really awesome silly faces, and I bust up laughing everytimes I look at him upside down; don't ask me why! I have married just the best man for me, I have rashes in my armpit from him tickling me! But I wouldn't take back those moments! He knows just the right thing to say, or not to say! There is reason that I seldom get any homework done when I am at home, its cause I look at my husband and thats that I'd rather be spending my time with him! But in a nutshell, I love my husband!



It's this face





His sense of style!

 

He's true to his word, even after losing a bet! (his fingernails are painted)



That all lead to this...the happiest day of my life! Oh he's so handsome!
