E.T.

So I've been terrible at this blogging thing the last month or so. And I'm still not going to give you a very good entry myself.... I'm going to give you the link to my brother and sister in law's blog as they have documented our most recent brush with extraterrestrial life. Please refer to the link below for the 411:

I'll post soon.

SNOW

In Las Vegas! It was pretty amazing, actually. Biggest storm here since 1979!! They let us go home early from work, although we probably should've left earlier... You see, down here in good ole southern Nevada, they don't have plow trucks or vehicles that drive around and salt the road.. So you just have to kind of make your way through it all. My car handled quite well, and I made it home in one piece.. I LOVED IT actually! Made this place look quite beautiful! :)

Jake took this picture yesterday afternoon- He took Bug out to see how she liked the snow. Don't think she did, really..

To Zion We Go...

Well... to Zion we went, rather. Jake and I headed up to St. George a few weekends ago and had a blast! It was Rayni's baby shower, so I was able to get up there in time to take part! It was a lot of fun and Rayni is just about the cutest pregnant woman I've ever seen! Afterwards Jake and I headed up to Zion's for a night of camping! It was a little chilly. But ah... it was gorgeous!! So here are some photos of one of the most beautiful places on Earth!!

View from our campsite

He's so hot right now...

Jake is cooking. Look at those trees!

                                               See.... I was there....

We couldn't get over how amazingly beautiful it was. I mean, we've both been to Zions like a million times before.. but I guess it was just a particularly incredible trip. That's what happens, I guess, when you're spending time with the love of your life... :)

Halloween! Finally....sorry.

GHOSTBUSTERS!!!

That's RIGHT everybooody.. we were out bustin the ghosts this Hallows Eve... And yes, our costumes are homemade (for the most part).. INCLUDING those mad rad looking proton packs!
We're battling the Fairly Odd Parents! (Luke & Michelle..er.. brother and SIL)

We threw a Halloween party at a park for all of our family. It really was a lot of fun...except I didn't get to bob for apples. Which is really what I wanted to do the most... Still, the kids had a blast!!

The Best.

So Jake made me some acorn squash last night.

It was really good... and i want everyone to know how much i adore my husband. He's my sunshine & my shelter when the sun is too scorching! I can't tell you how much better my life is now that he's my other half. I'm in love with him. And most likely, he'll never read this... but I just wanted you all to know that. Haha....

Halloweens a comin

Evenin ya'll. So I just wanted to check in and give all of my daily readers some eye candy. ha... er... Jake and I made a last minute trip down to Disneyland last weekend due to the very much appreciated invite from his parents! We spent all day Saturday playing at the happiest place in the universe! My mom and stepdad were down there as well, with my little brother Kaden. Kind of crazy that we'd all decide to take a Disney vaca at the same time. Kirsten and Ben even showed up for the day!! Of course, they live like 10 mins away, so how can they resist, right? Lucky punks. :) I was really excited to see em, though. This weekend we'll be searching madly for the completion of our Halloween costumes.... you'll have to wait for those photos to know what we're dressing up as. (only because if we can't find the entire costume essentials, we'll have to change ideas at the last moment...) Well other than all that, life is pretty much the same as usual. Jake's been studying madly and writing a paper. He's a much better student then I... although I am getting through my class okay. Yay me! Hope everyone's doing GREAT and I want to talk to you guys so call me or email me when ya can k? Miss my people.
Love ya, La.

I've decided to have a bit of a showcase of our Bug....
