Lazyman to Ironman

It is finished! The month ended and we finished our goal. We biked, ran, and swam the amount of miles and marked it off on our charts. We biked the Provo River Trail in the dark, swam 1 lap on the last day because we miss calculated, and ran everyday during Thanksgiving Break. But its done, its finished.

Basketball!!!! Football!!... and snow


BYU basketball season has finally started! I love watching the boys play and love the cheering and music that comes with the student section. People watching and listening during a game is also a wonderful upside to attending these games. So many pictures taken, funny faces, random conversation, and perfectly good calls are booed by perfectly clueless people.



Oh and we finally got a football game this season! The last home game of the season. They played the University of Idaho and won by quite a lot. Honestly, we only stayed half the game. (plus it was cold)



 
Oh ya…. It snowed… a lot. All day on Friday the snow poured down. Riding my bike was miserable. But I decided to make the best of it and humor Jordan. We went outside and attempted to build a snowman. That failed, so we decided to try to sculpt a man. That failed, so we just took a picture.

The attempted snowman/sculpted man is behind us.

Love Is.....

Last night we had FHE (Family Home Evening). We spent some time together outside of studying and cleaning together to strengthen our relationship as a couple and well as with our Heavenly Father. For our little activity we thought of little definitions of what we thought our specific love is... these are a few we thought of.

Love Is:

* Always taking out the garbage
*Cleaning while I am studying
* Turning off the alarm as fast as he can so he can jump into bed
*sending cute random texts
* wearing my favorite clothes that she owns more often then others
*knowing he will always kiss my hand when I put it out
*holding my hair up while I dry heave
*Always walking in the apartment first to check for attackers


I love this boy so so much!

Iron Man

This month Jordan decided that we were going to participate the a program called 'Iron Man'... In this program you chart your progress and by the end of the month you need to have completed 112 miles on the bicycle, 26 miles of running, and 2.7 or 79 laps of swimming. If you complete all this you get a shirt!!! Wahoo!  So far we just have a couple of miles of running, like 25ish of biking (we still need to calculate this) and then zero laps of swimming. Honestly I wasn't to excited to be participating in this, especially because Jordan now makes us ride our bikes fast instead of my usually slow speed. However, I feel that as the month gets closer to an end and our goal becomes closer and closer it will feel good to accomplish this. Yay for us!

The fall season

It's fall.. I can begin wearing pea-coats, long dress pants, and maybe my boots.

I don't really like the cold at all, but I love my kitten. I think that him and pumpkins make are so cute together.




Also... We went to the corn maze. It was so fun!!!! We did every maze available. It was pretty cool how big the maze was and how tall the corn was.




...Oh... I figured out why the candy is called candy corn!! At the corn maze, there was a bunch of hard corn on the cob. We plucked pieces of corn off and they looked like candy corn!
Who knew...

Our kitten

We are usually at a loss of what to call this little fellow, so usually we just call him kitty, or Firepatch.


A late summer wedding


We were sealed together on August 18, 2012 in Rexburg Idaho in the Rexburg Idaho Temple at 11:00 AM. Wahoo Wahoo Wahoo!! It was a beautiful sunny day, except for the sky was grey due to a nearby wild fire.
Here are some highlighted pictures from that day.


Coming out of the Temple as husband and wife

All our family and friends     Story: Because I am the oldest grandchild in my family none of my siblings or cousins could come witness the sealing inside the temple. My sister Leslee, who is 19, was put in charge of driving all my siblings and cousins up the hill to the temple when I was about to come out. They were stopped at the bottom of the hill when the van quit and would not move forward. They were stuck in the middle of an intersection embarrassed and panicked. Leslee burst into tears while Kimball had to direct traffic around the van. Luckily the high school orchestra teacher showed up behind the van, took a couple of children up to the temple and they were able to tell someone to come and get the rest. They all got their in the nick of time.



 
If you check out Kimball's face, the one directly to the right of Jordan...... It's not a posed one.
My periwinkle shoes!

Sealed for time and all eternity
                                                         The Reception
It was a beautiful beautiful Rexburg evening. Not to hot or cold. It was everything I hoped it would be. Beautiful, fun, and full of color and kids. Jordan got tired of being in that line, but because it was my hometown everybody I saw was someone I loved very very much.

My siblings took turns playing the piano
Check out the cute little banner at the top and the decorated card holder. I still have the banner hanging in my little apartment.



 My beautiful guest quilt that my mother and I made out of bride's maid and wedding dress material. We also had our engagement pictures put on fabric. The guests signed the back!



  


   My Elegant Cake





We served oreo pops and a sherbert and sprite mixture. I actually never tried one. But they looked cute in my colors!
This is only a few, but my brothers, cousins, and all their friends in the neighborhood got up early the morning of my wedding to set up chairs and tables for our reception.
Fielding 'pimpin' out by the drink table
Our first dance.

        
This was the happiest day of my life thus far. We were in my beautiful hometown, we were surrounded by family and friends, and I was sealed to my best friend for time and all eternity.
