OCTOBER FUN!

Brenton and I had so much fun this October going to USU games, dressing up, going to parties, and just hanging out. We have such wonderful families and friends and have enjoyed all of the time that we have been able to spend with them since we've been back.

Here's a picture of Brenton and me at a USU football game. It is so weird to actually be able to sit in the audience and just watch the game. Its good though. I love being able to go to them with Brenton.

My mom and Debbie decided to take the dance girls to Thriller this year for their Halloween party, so of course Brenton and I went with them. It was fun... except the little munchkins

sitting behind us wanted to talk quite loudly the whole time, so we had to move at intermission. ;)

Gotta love Kapri...

On the closing night of the Cache Valley pumpkin walk Brenton and I decided we needed to go, so Kapri came with us and we got up there right before it was time to close... Perfect timing to go through it without having to wait for or walk around everyone else.

We got quite a bit of snow this day...

MJ!

Yeah somebody really carved Pres. Monson in a pumpkin! Amazing! I have to use the stencils and my pumpkins still don't look very good.

The weekend before Halloween my parents had a Halloween party for us. These are our amazing costumes. :)

Two cute little lady bugs

I was teaching solos when Brenton got ready for the party so he had to do his makeup by himself. When I got on the computer later that night there was an internet window pulled up that read "How to Apply Eyeliner." Love him! :) haha

On Halloween night our married friends had a little party. We had dinner then played games. Even though we really sucked at the Newlywed Game, we had a lot of fun.

After searching around pretty much all day this is what we ended up being...

a cow and a white trash farmer. :)

The whole group

Fall in Utah... Love it!

Brenton and I have been back from Pennsylvania for almost two months now. It has gone by so fast! We are now living in Providence by the new Wal-Mart in a Blackhawk condo. We love living down here. It is such a nice area. I am working for my brother-in-law (Dr. Jared White) and his dad at White Dental in Tremonton and also teaching dance while going to school part-time. I love it... I have the PERFECT schedule right now! Brenton is going to school full-time and working at Dominos as a delivery boy (I need to post pics of him in his sweet outfit). :)

We have been having so much fun since we got back. Here is a few (quit a few) pics of what we have been up to.

I told Brenton he had to ride at least one ride with me at the fair and the Orbiter was the pick. When the ride started going we still hadn't been able to get our lap bar hooked in and we thought we were going to die, but a kid across from us saw and made the guy stop the ride for us. The worker wasn't too happy about it... but we are still alive! :)

LABOR DAY WEKEND

The first couple days of Labor Day weekend we went camping with my family up to Oneida in Idaho. It was a lot of fun.

Yep... his bum crack is always hanging out!

My sisters sitting by the fire

Teige... such a stinker, but so dang cute!

Notice the smore in Brenton's hand is between two chocolate chip cookies instead of graham crackers... he was so excited to make it. :)

Brenton dove off the dock into water that was a little bit shallow... luckily this is all that happened.

Joe Dirt?

After a couple days in Oneida we drove a little more north to spend the rest of the long weekend with the Atkinsons in Yellowstone.

Most of us...

Even though the signs say to stay on the boardwalk, I had to find out just how hot the shallow water on the ground was... not even as warm as my bathtub.

Old Faithful... hardly worth the two hour wait.

We couldn't hold it long enough to wait in line for the women's restroom... and of course there was no line for the men's, so we used it instead.

A few weeks ago Karly & Greg, Kylan & a date, and Brenton & I went down to my uncle Kerry's pond and went fishing. Kylan was pretty much the only one who caught anything, but it was a lot of fun.

Greg was the only one who could take the fish off the hooks.

The HUGE bass that Kylan caught.

Hanging out on the fishing boat...

Don't worry, I didn't catch anything but seaweed...

One night we got together with our good friends Caleb & Kristine and Kylan & Gwen and went ice blocking on Old Main Hill. We got grass stains all over our clothes and a couple battle wounds, but it was a BLAST! I think I only made it all the way to the bottom of the hill once...

Goodbye Philly...

Well, since the summer is pretty much over and I'm already home, I decided I should probably post some pictures of our adventures in downtown Philadelphia. Enjoy!

There's quite a few old cobblestone roads in downtown Philly.

City Hall

Love Park

Pretty fountain outside the Philly Art Museum

Overlooking the Schuylkill River and the boathouses

We loved the statues around the Art Museum... as you will be able to tell.

The boys...

The view of the city from the top of the Rocky steps at the Art Museum

For months Brenton talked about getting a picture punching the Rocky statue... he finally did it.

More statues...

Tomb of an Unkown Soldier in Philly

Independence Hall

Liberty Bell

One day I was kind of having a hard time (feeling a little home sick and just sick of sitting around all day every day by myself with nothing to do), so Brenton decided to take a day of and spend some time with me. The Cubs were in town so we decided to get tickets and go watch them play the Phillies. It was so much fun to be able to spend a whole day with him and actually go do something. As for the game... it would have been a lot better if the Cubs didn't suck that night. Good thing Brenton wore his Phillies shirt (even though he was secretly cheering for the cubs). :)

Brenton told me I had to get a hot dog at a baseball game, so here are our huge, sick-looking wieners.
