I'm LOVING November!!

So much has happened since my last post!! Of course last night I went to NEW MOON!! I LOVED it and its all I want to talk about:) It was amazing. My job is freaking awesome and a dentist we refer people to rented out a theater and we got to see it at 5:30!! haha:) Then of course at midnight!!! Don't you love my shirt?? I want to wear it all the time!! (I get a little too into it:) Going again tomorrow with Ty! and I can't wait!!!

Here is the midnight New Moon crew!! Getting ready to leave! We are so excited!!

Katie, me and Kelleen waiting to see the show the first time! I really had a perma smile ALL day at work!! I was so excited.. :) Because we saw a pre screening show they had that place secured! We had a crazy lady give us a warning for talking and taking pictures in front of the screen! It was so funny... She even had night vision goggles watching everyone.... CRAZY!

At a comedy club with Sam and Nat!!! So fun and SO FUNNY!!!

My cousin Brian was in town so we got together and had a party!! Brian has brain cancer and is the STRONGEST person I know. He has such a positive attitude about everything. He is such a great example to me and Ty!! He has gone through so much and has turned everything into a missionary experience!! Cousins are the greatest!! I have the BEST!!!!! (both sides:)

And last.... My little "BIG" brother got his mission call!! Woot Woot!! He is going to Santiago Chile! He leaves Feb 10th! We are SO excited for him... I can't believe he is old enough to go on a mission. Derek is the best brother ever! (Both my bro's are) I love being so close with them! I am going to miss him like crazy!! Congrats D!!!!!

Well thats it for now. Ty and I are off to Cancun for the next week!!! Can't wait!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

HaLLoWeEN 2009!!

This year for Halloween we were super busy with parties and dressing up!! But we had so much fun! I seriously love this time of year... except the cold weather!:(

We decided to dress up at work the Thursday before Halloween. It was kind of last min. so I just threw something together! It was a fun day though! We partied all day with halloween music and lots of treats!! I seriously LOVE my job!!

Katie and Braydn hosted a murder mystery disco party! It was so fun and everyone did awesome playing their parts. I love these parties...:) Thanks you two!! Here are all the girls!

and of course the boys... They were all awesome;)

The annual halloween party with Ty's friends from high school! We don't see these guys very often so its fun getting together every once in a while. Everyone's costumes were so fun and good ... They keep getting better each year:)

Ty and I as a crossing guard and a cone hahaha.... I just wanted to wear jeans hahah:)

My girlfriends from high school had a party too.. It's always a blast when me and my girlfriends are together.... I miss them!! Ty and I were supposed to be mafia but everyone thought we were Mr and Mrs Smith.... So we decided thats what we were haha.... Doesn't Ty look so good...? He looked so good in that suit!! I Love him!!

Hope everyone had a GREAT Halloween too!!!

Fall Break and More!

I seriously LOVE this time of year.... So much to look forward too, and lots of fun things to do to keep us busy!!! We have been BUSY between school, work, and playing!! But I love every min of it. Fall break could not have come at a better time.. We took a much needed trip to VEGAS! We did all the things we NEVER do when we visit sin city. We rode the Big Shot on the Stratosphere (I about peed my pants a few times, you know you are getting old when you just cant handle those rides anymore, and the boys made us ride it twice! Really I never have to do it again haha). We saw a comedy show, went to the Cirque Du Soleil Mystere which was AMAZING! We ate LOTS of yummy food, shopped till we dropped, gambled a little (my first time), and just hung out in Vegas! It was so hott too... I didn't want to leave. We have had some friends in town for a week so have been doing lots with them before they move to AZ! Life is so good:)

We went and saw Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs in 3D! Ty was such a good sport.... I loved the movie It was really cute:), he didn't love it so much!

Our pumpkin! and yes I dyed my hair dark, Ty has been wanting me to do it for a while so I got brave enough and did it.. I really miss my blonde hair so it won't be dark for long, I feel like I'm wearing a wig haha...

First day in Vegas!! At the M&M Factory with the Swensons!

Justin I love you!!!

Trying on the masks they wear in Mystere!! I am still so amazed by that show. If you have not been I highly recommend it! It was the coolest thing I have ever seen!

Getting ready to ride the Big Shot. It is so freaking high... So scary!

I have a serious addiction with Coke!! I really can't go a day without it.... I love the Coke store!

GOIN' TO BOSTON BABY!!!!!

This last weekend was for sure the BEST weekend ever:) My dream and goal the last 5 years of running was finally accomplished! I ran the St George Marathon on Saturday with my dad, cousin, and cousins friend, and I qualified for the BOSTON marathon!! I had to get under 3 hours and 40 min. My final time was 3 hours and 28 min!! I am so excited!! Now all those early Saturday morning paid off! Thanks to my dad for getting me out of bed to go on a long run EVERY week for the last few months. My dad came in 10 min after me and barley missed qualifying by 3 min!:( My cousin came in just under 4 hours!!! Everyone did so awesome. The rest of the trip was spent just lounging around, getting Cafe Rio (of course!!), and us girls went shopping while the boys went to priesthood! The weather was great and the company was even better. Thanks to everyone who came to support all of us runners! It meant so much!! BOSTON here I come!!!!

On the ride home!! Ty got me this balloon and had it on my bed when I got home from the race!! along with candy and a big Coke!!!!:) He knows the key to my heart! haha

Girls Night!!

My Aunt and Uncle got me these boston baked beans... Genius!

I got a pink magnet so people would know it was me that ran the marathon and not Ty haha!!

At the race expo!

This is really funny! Ty couldn't see me and just had the camera in the air! But I was SO excited to see my family!! I was screaming cause I was so excited:) Looks like I'm jumping in the air... haha!

Finally done!! :) ya I look HORRIBLE!!

Us girls;) (my dad didnt look too good after so I didn't put a picture of him up! he was really sick!)

Getting ready to leave for the buses! 5 A.M.

Good Job Dad, Nicole and Ash!!!:) Woot Woot we finished!! :)

Labor Day Weekend!

So I'm officially horrible at blogging!! Life has been busy, like always, but we still find time to have fun! I got together with some of my best friends from high school.. it had been a while but we had fun! I for sure feel old and married now cause they all went out to play after dinner but I went home to bed haha:) Over Labor Day weekend Mike and Dyami blessed their baby girl! Ty's sister came into town so we had fun hanging out with the family!! Its really one of my favorite things ever!!

My girlfriends at Goodwood!

The Sorensen Family! (I think we need a kid to fit in now! haha)

It's about time for an update!!

So Im officially horrible at blogging!! So much has happened since my last post!! These pictures are a little out of order but o-well! Our summer has been so fun.. I never want it to end! I love having Ty home so much and not having to worry about school! Im not ready for him to go back yet:(! On July 24th my dad and I ran a 10k in SL! This is our 3rd year doing it and its so much fun... But we cant seem to get anyone else to join in on the fun. Maybe next year??! My bro and sis in law had their baby girl June the end of July as well... She is the CUTEST thing ever! I am in love with her:) Congrats Mike and Dyami! My little brother Steven got home from his mission in Guatemala on Aug. 4th!! It was soooo fun to finally have him home.. We had lots of family at the airport and he really didnt know what to do. It was really funny. He was pretty weird the first couple of days, but is slowly getting back into things. Last week we had our first family vacation with all of us. We went to East Canyon and just hung out, played games, watched lots of movies, played mini golf, shuffle board, and tennis! Now we have a week and a half to play before school starts again.. UGH!!

I didn't take too many pics on our family trip, but here is all of us after a game of mini golf!

going bowling with my family!! Stevens first time bowling in 2 years:)!!

If any of you know my mom, our house NEVER EVER could look like this!! But it was this messy with my brothers stuff for a day... ya he is the angle child and my mom was so giddy and let him do whatever he wanted.. it was funnY! The night Steven got home we were up till almost 4am checking out all his stuff he brought home, looking at pics, and hearing stories! It was so fun until I had to get up at 630 for work! Thank goodness for CAFFEINE!

FINALLY HOME!!!! we were all SOOO happy and excited! What a fun night:) I saw some guys in white shirts coming down the stairs and started screaming, so everyone else started screaming too but it wasn't them.. it was 2 older guys in a white button up shirt... the guy was funny and told us we were 20 years too late! I think I need to get my eyes checked!

waiting!!

My family!! Getting ready to leave!

hanging up the signs!

Me and my sisters!

June! My cute new niece!

Me and my dad before the 10K!! He beat me by 1 min! (he beats me EVERY YEAR!) One year I will beat him!!

Well thats it for now.. Sorry for the over load on pictures!!

I love summer!!

We have had a busy but such a fun summer so far! I love when Ty doesn't have school so we can play all the time! We went to St George a couple weekends ago with Jake and Bryton and did just about everything in the 2 days we were there! We ate, swam, took a walk, went hiking, saw the Proposal (so funny!), and went shopping! It was so much fun!! We love having friends that like to do everything we like to do!! Then just this last weekend for the 4th of July we went to Brian Head with Ty's family! It was a last min trip but we had lots of fun! We went fishing, 4 wheeling, had a picnic, I tried mountain biking and I don't think I will be trying that anytime soon.. It was so scary! Vacations with family are the best! Sad but I think we will be home for the next couple of weekends!! We are now in the process of painting our house:) So that should keep us busy for a while!

BRIAN HEAD!

Brian Head! The view from the condo we stayed in!

I think we have the cutest nephews ever! We were making funny faces and taking pictures while waiting for the fireworks to start! These boys crack me up!

4Wheeling!!! (it's so pretty up there!)

Fishing.. We only caught one fish:(

Our brother in law is really into mountain biking and is REALLY good, I wanted to go with him and Ty, thinking it was like road biking, hahahahah.... It was so hard and so scary but im glad I tried it. Now I know I don't like it! It was really funny!

ST GEORGE!

Hiking up to Dixie Rock!

Taking a break from shopping!

Eating dinner on the lake!! haha jk....
