Update

Update for the week:

1. I switched phones already :(.. I do not recommend the Zio, lame! I kept having problems with it like dropped calls, no service, error codes and the touch screen sucked. But, now I'm a happy camper! I got this:

The Optimus (I like to say it in an Optimus Prime voice from Transformers) haha! Its MUCH better!

2. I love my job! Time goes by soooo fast! My bosses are the best and it's perfect. Got my first job related injury today- A paper cut. Not bad right?

3. We get to see my family this weekend! It's been too long!

Weekend and Good News!

This weekend was pretty eventful!

On Friday, Bo's little sister had Volleyball State in Orem at UVU so we went and watched! The team did really good but unfortunately lost both of their games on Friday so they didn't get to play again. I'm sad volleyball is over. We've been able to watch a few of the games this season. But Bo's little sister will be starting up club ball here soon so that gives us something to look forward to!

Bo got to finish up his Bday shopping this weekend as well! In between volleyball games we headed to the mall with his parents! We found an AMAZING deal on these boots! Bo is set for boarding this year! Now we just need some snow....for him. I'm not so much looking forward to it.

Saturday night we me up with one of Bo's mission companions for the RSL game! It was soooo much fun and we got perfect seats! I was worried about getting cold but it was a perfect night for November! RSL tied. The first half they didn't play so well but the second half there were plenty of nail biter moments!

Bo celebrating after RSL made a goal!

GOOD NEWS!

This weekend we also got some of the BEST news that we've heard in a while! I GOT A NEW JOB! I interviewed on Friday afternoon and the guy called me back within an hour and said I got the job! This is one of the biggest reliefs of my life right now! It is FULL-TIME and MORE MONEY! I am so excited! It will be perfect for me! The Lord really does work in mysterious ways. Just last week I was just sick thinking about money. But once again, we have been truly blessed!

Other news: Did I mention that we are getting another NIECE???? She will be here March 2011! Can NOT wait!

Bo's Bday!

Last night for Bo's bday we celebrated with a few friends! I am a bad wife and didn't even make him a cake. But, we both hate cake so yeah. I have been eyeing this pumpkin cheese cake forever that we both were dying to try so I used Bo's bday as the reason to try! It was fabulous! I am gonna try to find a recipe! It was nice hanging out with our friends goo! Thanks for coming guys! Happy Birthday Bo!

If you look close, some of his candles match his shirt! I picked them out like a couple weeks ago and didn't even give it a thought ;)

His presents so far:

I got him these jeans and hoodie! Oh yeah and can't forget the freebord :)

My parents got him these KILLER Von Zipper snowboarding goggles!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABE!!!!!

Halloween Weekend

Pumpkin Carving!

On Friday one of my BFFs Heather came out and the first thing we did was carve pumpkins! I know it was a little late but we did it anyway! We had so much fun! We roasted the seeds and I swear all we did the rest of the weekend was eat them!

Bo's pumpkin was so bright and it reflected so cool on the wall!

Bayside/Senses Fail

Saturday, instead of celebrating Halloween we went to the Bayside/Senses Fail concert! It was a blast! I'm not too sad we didn't get to celebrate Halloween. Bayside is Bo and my band! We LOVE them! I have seen them 4 times and it never gets old! We had quite the crowd of friends! While waiting in line we got soaked by the rain and it was freezing but it helped keep me nice and cool in the mosh pit! It was my cousins Yaeger and Kennedy's first concert so we were all excited for them!

Yaeger was pretty much my life saver! At one point we were standing in the back away from the most pit and these lame Straight Edgers (the people who punch, kick, swing, dance around for no reason) came at me and I felt these arms wrap around me and carry me away from them. When I looked up pretty sure it was Yaeger! Saved me from some bruising that's for sure!

News, news, news

Good news!

Bo and I have officially moved up in the world...

This weekend we got new phones :D We are STOKED! We now have phones with internet capability and GPS and all that good stuff. I know we are a little late on the times but what can we do? Bo got the HTC evo and I got the Sanyo Zio! Very happy with both of them. We are still trying to get used to the whole touch screen thing but it's coming quick! I probably need the most help though with all the apps and good stuff. But we love our news for the week ;)

On other news:

One of Bo and my best friends got engaged last night!

It was perfect! A couple of our friend's band was playing at a concert thing so Lando sang with them a song then ended up singing his and Olivia's favorite song also! In the middle of the song he called Olivia up and got down on one knee! Everyone was yelling and screaming! It so exciting! I got it all on video but the file is too big :( so it won't upload. But I'm sure most of you have seen it on facebook anyway! I was also happy cause I got to see a few of my Logan friends :)

Congrats guys! We are so excited and happy for you!

Fall Break

Bo had Fall Break last week and so Thursday we started the break off by meeting my parents at Gardner Village! There were sooooo many people there cause of course it was UEA for all the other schools. But I surely could have spent hours and hours in all the home decor and fabric stores. They were fabulous! It was a lot of fun as well! They had really good food and lots to do!

Friday morning we searched the internet for fun things to do and the zip line in Park City is what we came up with! And once again it was packed! UEA weekend and it was also the last weekend it was open. We stood in line for about an hour total getting tickets and waiting for the lift up but it was such a nice day and worth the wait! I also enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The trees were changing colors and perfect! Makes me wanna go get some more pics!

After the zip line we went to the Spin Cafe in Heber and it was sooo yummy! The gelato was my favorite part! They had pumpkin and it was the best thing ever!!!

Later our friend Drew played BYU so of course we had to support! We had so much fun watching him! Unfortunately, they lost but we had a good time!

The rest of the weekend I spent shopping with my friend Klin and making more flowers! I think I'm addicted to it! Most of them will be going to my niece! I can NOT wait to give them to her! Pretty sure this is where most of my extra time will be going for a while :) BTW we got a Hobby Lobby in Orem so pretty sure I will need to learn some self control or I might just get WAAAY too much material!

Have I mentioned lately that Skyping my sister in Australia is one of my favorite things right now?! I just miss these two cuties like NO other! Kenyon always dances and sings Justin Bieber songs to us and Noa knows a few songs too! I just love them!

You might think we're crazy...

because Bo and I are starting a new tradition.

Yep that's right!

We gave each other our birthday presents to each other just a little early.

He gave me and iPod Touch!

I got him a Freebord!

A couple weeks ago my iPod screen decided that it didn't want to work :(

Bo came home from school with a new iPod Touch for me :D

He explained to me that it was an early birthday present cause he felt bad that my old one stopped working.

I was sooooo excited!!! It has a camera and video recorder, internet everything I ever wanted!

So my mind started racing, what was I supposed to get him for his birthday??

He started putting ideas in my head and sure enough a freebord is what I decided to get him.

I of course had to get it soon cause it will snow soon and he got my present early.

So I ordered it last week and I gave it to him on Thursday!

I was so excited to give it to him I was shaking!

He was so surprised, it was perfect!

If you've don't know what a freeord is go HERE and watch the video!

It's like a snowboard/longboard.

But if you crash, you crash on concrete, not snow!

I kept telling Bo that I thought freebords were too dangerous and we can't afford doctor bills so I didn't want him to get one so I think that's why he was so surprised :)

I of course made him get a helmet and he got started right away!

I went and watched him ride for the first time in Friday and in fact, I'm watching him right now as I post!

He is already a pro!

So, back to the whole tradition thing and reasoning to why you may think we are crazy.

We are now going to be giving each other our birthday presents early.

Bo says anywhere from six months early to our birthday.

That way it's more of a surprise.

On our birthday we know its coming right?

So why now a surprise?

Plus, our birthdays are both just a month before Christmas and we hate trying to come up with things 2 months in a row!

We'll justify it all you want haha but this is OUR new tradition for our little family!

Love it!

Bo didn't even get out of his work clothes he was too excited to start putting the freebord together!... He even put his skate shoes on before it was all finished!

Happy Birthday to US!!!!!!
