A Saturday at the Zoo

We took my nieces Abby and Brooke, and my nephew Chase to the Hogle Zoo last Saturday. We had a lot of fun seeing all the new baby animals. Fall is the perfect time for the zoo. All of the animals were out strutting their stuff. We had a great time!

Brooke loved the Giraffes

Bunch of wild monkeys!

The baby elephant was the star of the zoo

Perfect way to take them back to their parents!

Traitors

Um Shouldn't we be in blue Aggie apparel? You would think right!? Lets just say Jeff attends USU and we pay them about seven grand a year, but we don't support their football team ( basketball is a different story! Instead of going to the Homecoming game at USU on Saturday, we drove an hour and half and went to the U of U homecoming game! Pretty backwards I know. Don't get us wrong we love Utah State, but we love U of U football too. GO UTES oh and the AGGIES

I love Fall

My favorite season has arrived! Pumpkins, fall leaves, cinnamon spice candles, my list could go on and on. Logan is beautiful this time of year. It is fun living so close to the canyon and getting to enjoy the outdoors. I am ready for this dumb 90 degree weather to go away though. I am ready for the chill! ( I won't be saying that in Feb. when it is -5 when I leave to work!) , but right now I am excited for it. This past weekend we went up the canyon with Jess and Andy and build a fire. We made tinfoil dinners and roasted s'mores. It was Delicious! If you are looking for pretty fall leaves come up and visit!!

But this face.......... Priceless!!How we still love this dog, I don't know, but we do! She has been a great buddy when I am bored and she is always making us laugh. She is really one crazy dog! Happy Birthday Lucy Dog!!


And Jeff my not admit it, but I think he loves her too! Just take a look at what he gave her for her birthday dinner.....



That is a waffle with syrup, bacon, and dog food to top it off! If she pukes he is cleaning it up!

The never ending project list

Here is what we have done lately....

Jeff built shelves in the Garage. So we can put all of our crap somewhere!

We painted our kitchen table this past weekend. It was navy blue which didn't quite match our kitchen, so $20.00 later we have a brown kitchen table that looks like new and matches very nicely!
There is still so much we want to do, but with school back in time and money to do these things is in short supply. It is great though when it only takes $20.00 and little bit of time to make something old look like new!

Back to School, back to school got my boots tied tight I hope I don't get in a fight......

Well yes it is that time again, Jeff is back to school with his boots tied tight and he better not be getting in any fights!! I can't believe how fast the summer went! It was so busy, but fun at the same time. Jeff has a pretty good load this semester, he is taken 15 credits. I think he was ready to go back and hit the books. I don't know if I am ready yet to be by myself at night while he is studying. I get bored easily! Hopefully lots of girls nights will cure that! Good luck to all of you that are back in the grind!

2yr Anniversary and San Diego!!

We celebrated our 2yr. Anniversary on August 4th! I can't believe how fast time goes. We have had a great two years together. I love my sweet hunk of husband so much. He is so kind and patient with me. I am so thankful for him. I couldn't have ask for a better guy to spend forever with. I love you babe!! Alright I am done with the cheesy part sorry!, but you need a little bit cheese in your life right? On to what we did for our Anniversary. I got delivered a beautiful bouquet of flowers at work! (see picture below) Later that evening we went to this little Italian restaurant here in Logan called Le Nonne. It was delicious! The following week after our Anniversary we went to the land fun and sun....SAN DIEGO. We went there on our honeymoon so it was great to be able to go back. We visited Seaport Village, Sea World ( my favorite place in the whole world!), Old Town and Oceanside. We ate lots of yummy fish and chips, and had a great little vacation together.

This was us on our honeymoon in 2007

I thought it would be fun to get the same picture taken so here is us 2yrs later!

Playing on the beach in Oceanside

Jeff enjoying his lunch at Harbor Fish and Chips yum!

The Dolphins are were my favorite part. I would have jumped right in with them if I could have!
Feeding the Dolphins

This Sea Lion was so funny, it would make the weirdest sounds begging for more fish!
