Party with the DYSON


Testing out the new vacuum

The DYSON

I finally purchased the vacuum I have been dreaming of for the past two years. And I can not stop vacuuming... I am an addict. This machine is incredible! I am obsessed with the sucking power of the purple machine, I get a high each time I look at the grodie germs it has sucked out of our carpet. I have vacuumed our home 4 times this weekend! If you are looking for a vacuum I recommend this Dyson Animal, it's even a fun color.

THANKSGIVING

Loving being home for the holidays this year. Last year we spent Thanksgiving in Idaho since we were living away, so this year I was extremely excited to spend the day with my family. For the first time Katri and I each helped prepare the big feast. I made the spinach dip and stuffing... from scratch and it was AMAZING! Katri made homemade gravy which was delicious and bursting with flavor. The entire day was spent at my parents with family and friends. I am so THANKFUL for my Patient hubby and my PARENTS.

The Table

We were beyond SURPRISED when she showed up on time!
intensely searching the newspaper ads for flatscreens, vacuums, blue rays, navigation system
hmmm... whose is waking up at the crack of dawn for the good deals?

SHOCKING THAT IT TURNED OUT SO YUMMY!
HAPPY TURKEY DAY

too long...

Since I have spent quality time with these girls. Life gets so busy, especially when you have children (as I have learned from all my many friends with kiddos) so it seems that I hardly see these fun girls anymore. We enjoyed a fun date night at the Spectrum with these fun couples eating CPK, walking around, laughing, and chatting it up. The time was too short, but I was so happy to finally see Jules. No matter what I do with her, we always have fun together. So grateful for my wonderful friends, the encouragement they always provide, their laughter, and example.

TIMMY AND WHITE BUFFALO

We headed to the OC Tavern for an up close intimate concert with Timmy Curran and White Buffalo. The show was amazing! Nic and I were at the very front rockin during Timmy's performance and the entire time he was singing to us... well it seemed as if he were singing directly to the two of us, since he kept looking at us smiling. We even had him laughing with us during a song. He is so talented, I love his voice and how he is just so mellow and all about the music. Nic was drooling all night over him and his drummer. After the show we talked with him for a few minutes, what a humble kind guy he is. Highlights of the night included him serenading us and hanging out with Tim and Ben (it has been so long since I have seen these boys). Such a fun night!

REUNION

What a treat! We were finally able to meet up with the Stricklands and meet their new little bundle of joy! Caleb is already a handsome little man... watch out ladies. Joelynn is a natural at motherhood, I just died seeing her interact with Caleb. We had a fun night reminiscing, laughing, catching up and of course eating. Joelynn is always incredibly thoughtful, every time she spots something with a butterfly she picks it up for me! I loved all the treasures you brought over; vases, picture frame, jewelry box and mostly Caleb. Thank you for thinking of me. We love you three.

LOVE

A little shout out to the newly married couple Andrew and Elle. We were happy to attend their lovely reception at the Chart House. The weather was amazingly warm for November and the view was incredible. Elle was stunning in her Spanish made dress and adorable vintage hat. Andrew looked hot in his brown suit (vintage style) and I just loved how the two of them looked together. Such a beautiful happy couple.
Andrew has always been a great example to Timmy and I am forever grateful that he and Tim met back in High School. Andrew stands up for what he believes and strives to make good decision. I know Tim has watched his actions for many years and it is because of Andrew and so many of their other boyfriends that Tim is where he is know in life. Thank you Andrew for your friendship.
Congratulations! We are absolutely thrilled for you both! I enjoyed seeing you both radiating with happiness on your Wedding Day.

Pajama Party

Halloween fell on a Friday night this year so we thought it would be a good idea to have a party. Our childless friends headed over in their pajamas for some yummy chili and cornbread followed by lots of treats. We had enjoyable night eating, laughing, talking and gaming.

These girls always crack me up!

APPLES N CARAMEL

The night before Halloween a few friends came over to dip apples in warm gooey caramel. They turned out yummy, almost as good as Rocky Mountain. We are loving this time of year with all the fun festivities!
