Veterans Day!

( This is a picture of Josh at the Wendover air show!)
I just wanted to do a quick post on how thankful I am for all the People who have or are serving in the Military. I am thankful for my Both my grandpa's who served some time in the Military! But I am especially thankful for my husband and all he does! He is so great at his job and loves being in the Military! He is also great for me, He has been so helpful through my pregnancy and with helping to keep the house clean!

30 Day Challenge Failed!

I am sure most of you have realized that my 30 day challenge only turned out to be a 6 day challenge! I figured it would probably just be better to write when I have the time and something to write about.
October was such a fun month, A few weeks ago I got to go up to Rupert Idaho and spend the weekend with my Sister and Brother in-law. I had a cold but it was so much fun! Sarah,Mom, Abbey and I went to a craft fair where i purchased my first Christmas decoration for my house, Also I got glitter toes which are still looking good! It was such a fun weekend and am so thankful for Family.
Halloween weekend was really nice also, Josh and I went to our Wards Christmas Party and the trunk or treat then stayed home and watched movies! It was a very low key holiday but still fun!
We are now excited for November, This is what our schedule looks like:
November 15: We have our next doctor appointment and will find out the gender of our baby!!

November 25: Make Rolls for thanksgiving dinner. Then to the grandparents house for Thanksgiving ( Josh was supposed to go to Peru for work but the trip got canceled)

November 26: Black Friday shopping with all the Girls!

November 27: Salt Lake Trip with the Family

November 28: Start decorating for Christmas

Blog Challenge Day 6

Dream Wedding:
I would have to say my dream wedding was my own. It was very simple but beautiful. I was able to wear my Grandmother Martin's Wedding dress. We got married in the afternoon, Had a family / Friend Lunch and then went on our way! It was a perfect day!

Blog Challenge Day 5

A Picture of yourself 2 years ago.
This is a Picture of me and one of my best friends, Lacie. This is when we were in Beauty School and our favorite thing was to go down to the candy store a few buildings away and get peanut Butter twix!

Blog Challenge Day 4

I know I didn't Blog over the weekend, But I try not to get on the computer over the weekend since I am on it All day at work, So we will make it the 30 weekday challenge.

Picture of your Best Friend:
I have a Few Best Friends so this might be a long post.

First is My Husband Josh. He understands me so well and is so patient with me. We have so much fun together and he is always putting a smile on my face when I am having a bad day. He is also such a hard worker, I was able to go see one of his air shows and was very impressed with how hard he works and what a good job he does.



Second Is my Sister Sarah. Sarah and I are only 18 months apart, She is one of my best friends for many reasons. She is always there when i need someone to talk to, She is so fun to be around and so creative, and I always feel like she truly cares about her family and friends. She is always one of the first people i go to whenever I need someone or have exciting news. She is a great older sister and Best Friend.

Of Course My Mom, Dad, and Abbey are Best friends too! Sorry I don't have picutes of them.

Blog Challenge Day 3

My idea of a perfect date:

My idea of a perfect date would have to be the first date me and josh went on. Obviously it went well or we probably wouldn't be married.
On our first date we went to Pine View to go jet skiing. We met one of josh' friends and his friends wife and kids there. It was such a nice day and the water was great. We spent a few hours out there and me and josh got a lot of time to talk. It was not the most romantic date but I sure liked it.

Blog Challenge Day 2

Picture of something you ate today:
I got a good recipe for easy enchiladas from my sister (which will be my leftover lunch today). I forgot to take a picture so i just got a random one from online :) It was fun to cook and try something different but that was also easy.

Also today was the first day it hurt to button up my pants. I had to put an elastic around the button to hold my pants together :)

Blog Day 1

How My Day Was..
I figured I would write on how yesterday was since I haven't completed today yet. I went to work and had a fun day with my co-workers. While sitting at my desk my co-worker walked in with a pen straight out and dangling from the pen was a dirty red THONG underwear! She said she found it in the hall straight down from the offices. In our office not many people go down that hall except for employees which made it all the more funny. We never found out who the thong belong to but it has made for fun pranks around the office.
Also last night I talked to my sister sarah (who is probably the best wife ever) She told me about her dinner ideas and all the wonderful things she cooks which made me realize i need to be more of a housewife.. So last night i cleaned my kitchen from top to bottom (yet to still make dinner everynight :))
My day was eventful and fun, Pregnancy sickness is getting better but still tired all the time. Hopefully I can keep up with this 30 day blog to keep everyone in the loop!

Stalker!!

I had a very eventful morning this morning. I decided to stop at the Gas Station close to my house on my way to work. While I was walking in a saw a Man in a car at the pump point and me.. I went inside and saw a women standing by the door so i figured he was actually pointing at her. I grabbed my drink and went to the cash register. There were a few girls that left while i was paying and A Guy who worked there Walked out with them, The cashier said the guy at the pump had been there for hours and was creeping them out so they had the Male Worker walk out to make sure the girls would be okay.
When I walked out the creepy guy watched me go to my car and started following me to work, He stayed about 2 cars behind me so I couldn't make out his license plate number. When I got to the Light to turn for work he passed by and waved, I drove the rest of the way to my Building and saw him coming through the parking lot next to the building I work in. I called my co-worker who had also been in the gas station the come walk in with me.
My co-worker called the gas station and was able to get the make and Model of the Car, So i was able to call the campus police. Hopefully when i leave he will be gone !
Anyway hopefully me and Josh can keep up with a blog now!
