Wednesday...the most boring day of the week...yes but exciting

It is Wednesday, yes I know how boring it isn't even close to Friday. Well this Wednesday I have done so much this week like register for next semester, take a test, done tons of homework, and found our Halloween costumes (only a little bit left to do on it) and the crazy stuff is now down for this week...therefore, I have the rest of the week to just have fun and get ready for next week. I do have one more assignment for stats but other than that I have my foods class today (yum!) and preschool tomorrow. Then I am off of school on Friday and working more and then we have our Halloween party with the kids then the party at our friends that night. Saturday trunk or treat at moms house then our ward party. I love Halloween...except the fact that we wanted to be some things that may have been inappropriate so we thought that may not be a good impression on our ward party :S I am excited though. As of now we are going as Popeye and Olive Oyl I will post pictures. The only thing is we can't find Jake a hat or pipe so we might have to make one up. Well that is all I better get to my class and then off to make some yummy food!!!!!!!!

Ode to weekends

It is finally Friday! I am so excited. I just finished my stats homework and not I am free at least for a couple of days. This week I started working at the BYU preschool so that will mean at least 4 days with little children every week and that is without having some of my own! I am really liking it though. Also I had a crazy hard test this week. Jake has had one and two on Monday so basically no time to do whatever we want.

I am super excited I am making my kitchen have some orange splash in it so I will post some pictures when I am done. Also it has been nice now that we know we will be staying here for a while because we have put tons of pictures up and made it really feel like home. I really love our place!

The last thing is that Jake found out what I was getting for Christmas because he said we should get Guitar Hero for Christmas for our family and he said he was going to buy it so I was in a pickle so I told him. Well that will be our family Christmas present and I will find something even better though. Oh well I will get something freaking awesome!

Well that is all! Peace out!

Weekend Alone

Jake is finally home! Well he was only gone from Thursday morning until today but Thursday night was officially the first night I have slept my myself since we have been married. Before I had either gone to my parents or had stuff going on but not Thursday. I sound like such a baby and I know it will happen again. I try to play it off like I am little Miss Independent and I used to be but Jake changed that. I love him taking care of me and him going to bed with me every night. Other than that he had a fun trip and I had a great weekend.

I went up to my mom's house yesterday and saw Teresa and the girls and then went over to my friend Erin's house warming party come to find out they didn't buy there place they are just renting (where are my presents then?) which I thought was kind of weird but I think it was just an excuse to have a party which is cool., Then we left early because they are kind of some partiers. I then went to my parents house and talked with mom and dad. The next morning we helped my aunt Dot move and then went garage sale shopping. I got some super cute pants (free!) from Gap, a cut deco pitcher I think I will put some flowers in, tennis balls, super cute necklace, cute little halloween decoration, and some sheet music. Not too bad but it was way fun. Then I went out to Nick and Lucy's for dinner which was fabulous then brought some home to Jake who just got back home. Now a night of watching tv and just hanging out. It is nice to have noise in our apartment now and not just turning on the tv by myself so it wasn't silent. Just wait one day when I have kids I will be dying to have a little silence but as for now I am glad Jake is home to have a little noise.

Lazy Sundays

So today was such a great day. We went to my cousin Katie's little baby's (Avery) blessing. They live just way close to us so my family came over to our house for a little bit. Mom showed me how to make some easy bread and then we made cookies to go to the "afterparty" (which everybody loved" thanks to missy's great recipe! Then afterwards we came home and I took a little nap...did I mention it was 3 1/2 hours long!!! I don't know why I slept that long I wasn't even that tired. I think this whole waking up and being to school or work by 7 am is really getting to me especially since I have been at Lone Peak for whole days on Tuesday and Thursday. I hate taking that long of naps because then it seems like I have wasted so much time. Gay! Oh but the trips to Lone Peak have been great and also on Thursday Jared texted me during lunch seeing what I was doing because he wanted to come see me. How nice! Then we saw Jesse and they both showed me off to their friends like I was the coolest thing ever. It makes me feel good when my little brothers think I am pretty cool. They are such great kids. Well that is about it but here comes a crazy week coming up with a presentation, my proposal for my research paper, and a massage on Saturday with mom because Jakey will be in Moab (I don't think he would have wanted to come anyways!). Well that is all. Signing off until next time!

Another weekend at the cabin

Since it was October conference we then again went up to the Pyne Family Cabin. It was actually really good. I love the cabin but by far my favorite part is the little bit of a drive that we take where Jake and I just get to talk. It is so nice to talk and have no distractions. We talked a lot about what our plans hold for us like a family, school, and work. Every time I talk to Jake I love it because he wants whatever is best for our whole family not just us now but for our future family also. He just amazes me at how much he is aware of all of our needs. Love you Jakers!

Last of all just wanted to talk about conference and what I really liked was how they talked about service. It made me realize that to get the best of service and to make this world better you serve just to serve not to expect something in return. The thing that Jake really liked was how Elder Holland talked about the Book of Mormon. He stated that some people may say that the Book of Mormon is fake and of the devil and that Joseph Smith is a liar, but when you think about it why would Satan make a book that makes God sound so good and teaches us to be better? It doesn't make sense it has to be TRUE! Also is wouldn't make sense to have Joseph Smith lie about such a great thing that brings people closer to God. Well those were my highlights. Please add your favorite part of conference in comments it would be good to hear them!
