BYU football


It's football season again! This was our first game...VICTORY over Washington huskies!

Costco

We are proud to be the newest members of Costco! I have wanted a card for a while because I work right next to Costco so I think it is convenient to put up food from there. I like a lot of their prepared food and would rather eat that for dinner at work (or for Jordan when I’m at work) than fast food. We got some great essentials on our first shopping trip! I love Costco! This is Jordan's reaction when I asked if we could but that palet of Ferrero Rocher...my favorite candy!

The case of the misssing...everything Jordan touches

A couple weeks ago, Jordan lost his car key, my spare, and his house key. We were still moving in at the time and figured as we moved boxes and cleaned up, they’d show up. Still no luck, so he has a key on its way from eBay! A week after that, Jordan lost his cell phone. It is kind of funny because we don’t really use our cell phones to talk too much, but he happened to loose it when I went up to Idaho with my parents to take McCall to school. He thinks he drove away with his phone on top of the car or something so he ordered a phone off eBay! It’s great he’s back in the 21st century! Hopefully he can hold onto everything for a little bit now!

Idaho

I left my husband for two nights to take my baby sister up to school at BYU Idaho. It was fun to spend time with McCall and my parents! I was also able to meet up with my roommates, Beth, Kayla and her husband Beau. It was so fun to see my girls!! There has been a lot of construction on campus so it was fun to see some of the finished buildings! McCall had cute roommates that she seems to really like and I think she will do great there! I am glad I was able to take her up to school! Love you, Call! I don't know why I look so dumb and they look so good, but hey, love you two!

Spiders!

When we first moved in, we slept on mattresses in the basement because a)that’s where the mattresses were already and we did not have our bed yet b)it’s so much cooler down there. It was fun until I started finding spiders daily! I do not like spiders! I found a couple pretty big ones but Jordan always saved me! One day we are getting ready to go out so I put on a sun dress and look in the mirror and see a tag or sticker on my dress. As I flicked it off, I look at the object flying towards my bed…a GIANT spider laying a SAC OF EGGS! Good thing Jordan was right there again to carfully grab him her and the sac and dispose of them! After that we fogger the basement with bug bombs and haven’t seen a live bug since…just lots of carcasses!

We have friends!!

A few days after we moved in, we had some friends over for a couples night! Jordan grilled some steaks and asparagus. He is such a stud! It was so good! I made mashed potatoes, Jordan and Cherstin (friends from our old Provo ward) made a good fresh salad, and Andrew and Clarissa (Jordan’s cousin and hid girlfriend) brought yummy blueberry muffins for dessert. After we played some games and talked. It was a lot of fun to have people over to our house!

Choo choo!


We live five houses away from some train tracks. I have never live close to train tracks and never had any real experience with trains like riding or putting pennies on the tracks. I still don’t know if I like being so close to the almost constant stream of trains. I think the sound is fun when I’m up and just waiting for Jordan to come home or something. I am not such a fan of the train when it wakes me up at night and in the morning! But we will be smashing pennies soon!
