November 2011

This month has been pretty stressful, but we've done some fun stuff along the way. The first weekend of Novemeber my sister came to sleepover, and then the next morning she drove us to Vegas to stay with her. We met my parents at Sam's club, and we spent two hours in there walking around. When we finally got and were checking out my dad came over with a tequllia shot gun! It was huge, and full of tequilla! We didn't get it, and I still don't. I feel bad for my mom, I'm sure it will end up as some kind of home decor. We all laughed a lot, though. After that we stopped at Wal-mart for some baking supplies. When we got back to my sister's house I started making oreo truffles, and the biggest batch of pumpkin chocolate chip cookies you'll ever see! There was so many! It was fun to bake with my mom and sister, though. Around 6 p.m. we finally agreed on somewhere to eat and we all went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner. We met Devon and Vanessa and Robyn there and we had fun. After dinner we went to the comedy club across the street from the Bellagio and watched some comedies. They were pretty funny, and we all laughed when one of them made fun of Devon. After that we went bowling at one of the hotels. Devon beat everyone by like one-hundred points! I was so tired after that, so we went home and went to bed. The next morning my parents were going to the races, so we all got up early and ate breakfast at The Cracked Egg. It's my most favorite. After breakfast we took a nap, and then got ready for church. We just went to my sister's sacrament. At home we took the longest nap ever! I think we were all so tired. In the afternoon, we packed up our stuff and my sister drove us back home! It was way fun. I'm happy that I got to spend some time with my sister.

On November 19, my mom picked me up from work, and we drove over to Adam's sisters baby shower. Sarah's having a little baby boy, and I'm so excited for her. It could be any day now! Her shower was really fun, and it was good to spend time with the girls in his family. We played games and ate cake and veggie pizza! We all laughed when we played the game about NOT saying the word cute. It was so hard for all of us NOT to say cute while she was opening up gifts with little tiny baby shoes, and cute clothes. After the shower my mom and I met Adam at the movie theatre. He bought my mom and I tickets to Breaking Dawn, and he even agreed to see it with us! I was so excited, and I have the best husband ever. The movie was good, and it was fun to see it with my mom. Thursday is Thanksgiving already! I can't believe how fast time is going by. I wish it would just slow down a little bit.

We are still trying to close on our house, but I think it will happen in the next few weeks. It's been a huge headache, and we can't wait until it's over. I'll write down all the details when it's over, and we move into our new house!

October 2011

October went by so fast! We were busy like EVERDAY! First, we celebrated my mom's birthday on the 9th! I made her some orange cookies for her birthday, and we just spent the day at my parents house relaxing and celebrating. I hope my mom knows how much I love her, and how awesome she is. The next weekend my sister, Kimber, my mom and me went to Kneader's for dinner and then went to see Little Mermaid at Tuachan. It was so cute. My sister bought us tickets, and we had so much fun! Thanks, Brin! On that Monday I went to see Little Mermaid, again. Adam and I, and some of his co-workers this time. It was way fun to see it with my husband, but I'm all mermaided out for a while. Also, in October I dropped out of Geology, because I just don't understand rocks. I didn't know they were so complicated. So I'll give geography a shot next semester. On October 31st I started counting down the days until I see my best friend, Sista Krista! I've been writing her every week since April. I miss her so much, but only less than a year now! Also, it was Halloween. Eh. I kinda hate Halloween. I'm a scaredy cat, way bad. But, after work my sister and my mom came over to my house and we all got our costumes on! Kimber was the cutest little kitty cat. And my sister looked way hot in her purple wig, and pink make up! And Adam and I dressed from the 50's. We went to see Thriller on Halloween at Tuachan. I'm a Thriller freak, I've been like five years in a row now. But I just love it, and it's the only scary I can take. We went with Adam's coworkers and we all had a lot of fun! I'm just glad October is over! YAY. I can watch normal tv again.

September 2011

In September, Adam and I took our last camping trip for the year. We went up to our usual spot on Cedar Mountain on Saturday afternoon over Labor Day weekend. My parents were already up there, so while my dad cooked dinner we set up our tent. We had a really good time, and the weather was so nice the whole weekend.  We went on long four-wheelers ride with my parents, played cards, and walked The Hangover in our tent every night before bed. I love camping so much! And I kinda can't wait until Memorial Day when we get to do it again! I didn't take any pictures, and I'm really mad at myself for not. I'm trying to get better at this.

Anyway.

On September 30, I turned 23! I seriously don't feel like this is possible. I still feel like I should be 17. I'm still trying to get used to saying, I'm 23. I always laughed at people who said, " I still feel like I'm 26, instead of 34." But I totally get it now. So, I had the best birthday ever. They just keep getting better. I love birthdays so much. The morning I woke up on my birthday, Adam had to go to work for a while. I just did some laundry and got to watch my favorite show. (Except Raegan was leaving Good Things Utah, on my birthday, so I was kinda sad.) After that, I went and got a peach cobbler cupcake for breakfast, and met my mom at the nail salon and we got pedicures. It was so nice. Then I finished getting ready at home. When Adam got home we met everyone at Kneader's! It's my new favorite place to eat. I crave it ALL THE TIME. We had a lot of fun, and Adam got me a cute card and made me wear a Princess crown. I'm glad the Herpel's came and celebrated my birthday, along with my parents. I have the best family. EVER.

 My dad and I at Kneader's. He even liked it. Me and my dad are both born on the very last days of our months. I think that's kinda cool. And my dad is the awesomest. I love him way much.

 After leaving Kneader's we drove down to Las Vegas! We picked up my sister, Kimber and Kyle and went to Cheesecake Factory for cake! But before we left I got to see my sister's new house! It's so cute, and she has decorated so cute! I love it! Blowin' out my candles on my keylime cheesecake birthday cake! Woo
Devon and Vanessa came with us and we all had lots of fun! We watched the fishes in Caesar's Palace and Kimber was so amazed. I just love her. Then we walked over to the Bellagio to watch the water show! The next day we went SHOPPING! My most favorite hobby. We went to Town Square and ate lunch at California Pizza Kitchen. Then went to GAP and Banana Republic. It's amazing how much money I can spend just in those two stores. I got a lot of good stuff. We went home and my dad was watching some creepy movie, so me and my mom just played on Pinterest, and ate some Taco Bell. We almost peed our pants laughing. The next morning we got up and went to the mall, again. We went to Dillards, and GAP, again. I can't go somewhere that has a GAP and no go inside. We ate some corn dogs, and went home. That night my Uncle Darrin came over, and my mom, me and my sister all made a yummy dinner. It was so much fun! Then we had to go home. It was so much fun to have all the girls in the kitchen, and I'm glad my sister let us come play at her house! We hope we can do it again soon!

And I just need to say that I have such an awesome husband. He treats me like a princess, and I love him so very much. He makes my birthday so much fun. And he even puts me up with ALL month long when I use the excuse, "But it's my birthday month." Anytime I want something. He's the best, and I am spoiled.
