Lately...

Here is a quick update on our busy life and some cute pictures!

For Halloween this year (yes I know I should have posted this a month ago!) Cole and I had to help out with the Institute Trunk-or-Treat...because it is our calling! But we were happy to do it and love being Institute Reps! It was supposed to be outside and all the cars were going to be parked in a circle with the candy in the trunks...but we had to have it inside the institute building because of the weather so it wasn't a fun as it should have been! But still fun! There were alot of people, candy, donuts, hot chocolate, and music! Each ward had to decorate a doorway (instead of a car). Chad, Anna, and Cambree came up from Saint George to help. We were all Zombies if you couldn't tell. And 15 minute Zombies at that! I got off work just in time to throw on that awesome dress and slap on some makeup. I wish you could see my shoes in the picture. They were lovely. Cambree was a spooooky witch! And refused to wear her hat most of the night... but she was still cute!


The day after Halloween, Cody blessed Macy. We went to visit her Halloween night in hopes of catching her and Savanah in thier cute costumes, but Vani was still out catching the candy and Macy was bathed and ready for bed! I snatched a cute picture with Macy...check out my sweet t-shirt! Don't be jealous.


I was able to go home for Thanksgiving...but Cole had to stay home and do HOMEWORK! I felt so bad. It's his crazy O-CHEM class and it's ruining our lives... Ok, that is extreme but it is seriously putting a damper on things. Like Thanksgiving! I went to Delta Thursday morning and came back home Friday morning. While I ate turkey and mashed potatoes, Cole ate Burger King... because it was the only thing open. Sad stuff. I did bring him home some good eats though. And we did have a ward Thanksgiving dinner earlier in the week. Jasper had fun though! His best buddy Ruger was there to play with so he was non-stop crazy for 24 hours. All my family was home (minus my husband) and it was good to see everyone. I love my family sooooo much! Both of my families! I didn't get to see the Rasch's on my short lived trip and I miss them very much but we will be home for Christmas in a few weeks and we will see you all very soon! Here are some pictures!

Meet Barry!


Cole called me yesterday while I was at work to tell me about this adorable Boston Terrier he spotted at the Cedar City Animal Shelter. He was on his way to the park with Jasper when he saw Barry outside in the shelter's dog run. The shelter worker let Cole get Jasper out of the car and go into the run to play with the little guy! We wanted to take him home so badly but don't think our land lords would let us have another dog in the house. Sad. I sure hope someone adopts him soon. He is a sweetie! He's house trained and knows basic commands. He loves to play fetch. I played with him for a bit after work and he loves tennis balls and the swimming pool! If anyone wants a good little buddy, go get him! Sadly the shelter here is not a "no kill" shelter. They only keep the dogs for a week or so before putting them to sleep. It makes me so sad. I hope all those lonely dogs get a good home soon.


Another HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Yesterday was my baby sister Anna's 20th birthday! Wow! I can't believe she is already 20. I went down to St. George to watch Camzilla while Chad took Anna out for her B-day. While she was out eating yummy Outback... I was eating mac and cheese with the little lady (See picture below) and watching what else but...MICKEY MOUSE CLUBHOUSE! Ha! She did at one point scream out Bebob (Sponge Bob) so we watched a little of that too. She's a funny little girl! I hope you had lots of fun last night sis! I love you lots!
