Pumpkin Time.




















My SKULL pumpkin















Zack won the scary award for his pumpkin



I LOVE carving pumpkins. I hope I never get sick of doing it. Who would have thought something so simple could be so much fun. But we had such a good time doing it. It's always fun digging out the guts and then figuring out what creation you will make.

Why do I care?

I have no idea why it makes me sad when celebrity couples split up . . .well at least celebrity couples that seem like they had normal relationships in the first place and some morals, it's not like they are close friends of mine(uh not even people I know personally) but it's still sad. I mean I'm still sad about the Jessica and Nick break-up even though I don't like her very much anymore, I still have hopes of a reunion. But this couple seemed just like any other normal(non-celebrity) couple. I guess not.

Is it just me?















Is it just me or are my favorite shows going down hill? Maybe I just built up how good they really were in their absence over the summer. Whatever it is, I'm just not as satisfied as I used to be. Maybe I just need to stop watching so much t.v. and move on to more creative projects or something. Or maybe I just need to find some new shows. It always seems like they are better in the first few seasons anyway. And with all the new shows this season, I'm sure there are plenty to choose from. Zack and I started watching 'What about Brian' and although I'm still watching it, it's kind of depressing. Does anyone have any good ideas? Or better yet . . .who wants to start some projects with me?

Snow Already.


I cannot believe it's already snowing outside! I don't know if I'm ready for the cold, dark, winter to set in. It seems like just barely we were enjoying the warm weather up the canyon with daylight until at least 9:00, why does this have to change? This week I've been stuck at home with a cold. This morning I decided to be brave and go back to work. I couldn't believe how dark it was when I was driving there at 7:45am. It made my stomach drop. Don't get me wrong I love the fall I just wish it would last longer before the winter moved in. Maybe I need to consider moving to warmer climates.

Happy Visit.



This past week my nephew and sister-in-law came in town from Arizona, Yippeeee. It was so fun to see them. My Nephew has gotten so big. He's so fun to be around, this is a picture of him laughing really hard at my piano playing. I didn't know I was that bad.

Lorilee . . .this one's for you



Thank you for having us over for dinner and feeding our hungry bellies.

P.S. the dessert was amazing

One more



Sorry I had to post one more, just so you can see how blue the water was, and how cute my husband is.

Beautiful





We stayed at the prettiest campsite I've ever been too. We probably ended up taking around 500 pictures of the whole trip. It was so nice to go on our first trip alone since our honeymoon. Sad that it's almost been three years since we've been married and we haven't done it more often. Hopefully that will change.

Trip







These are some pictures I just had to post from our trip to the tetons this summer. I'm sure I'll have more pictures from this summer, we have a lot of beautiful pictures from the few trips we were able to take.

Fall Time


I love fall time. I wish it lasted longer so I could feel like I really got to enjoy it.

Scared.



Zack and I had to speak in church this Sunday and this is a picture of us wasting time while we were supposed to be writing our talks. (Doesn't Zack's beard look really manly?) It was a stressful couple of weeks thinking and preparing for it. I think I'm just starting to relax tonight knowing that we are finally finished. I really don't like the feeling of having something hanging over my head and no matter what I'm doing there's always something else I should be doing. I was just starting to enjoy not having that feeling everyday now that I'm out of school and then it was all brought back. What a joy to leave that behind!
Now maybe I can start adding some entries to this blog. . .

Welcome


So I'm in! "lucky me"! I have a blog all my own. Hopefully I'll be able to find something interesting to talk about. Maybe it will turn out to be my pseudo (is that the word I want to use Ali?) journal since I'm definitely not good at keeping one. I feel like since I have so many fun blogs to read I should do my part and share some of me with you.
