Books!

We finished the 3rd and 4th books. They are really good.



So we are on the last book of the Olympians series.


Next we are going to read the Demigod files which are just short stories.
The next series we will start is the Heros of Olympus: The Lost Hero.
We are on a roll through these books. We love them!

Anniversary Pictures!

Percy Jackson and the Olympians!

Andrew and I have started another series: Percy Jackson and the Olympians!
The first book was The Lightening Thief
and it was very good. We'll watch the movie again soon, but the ending of the movie is nothing like the book and kind of a let done and the war god,Ares, is a jerk.

The second one, which we are starting is: Sea of Monsters
While I'm not reading that with Andrew, I am trying out Stephen King. I picked this out:

Apparently it was his second published work. So it should be interesting. I think it's about vampires.

October!

First, it was my birthday!! The big 25! I am officially a full fledged adult!
I had some helpers with my candles!
I had a party

Mom got me a sewing machine!! I was so flipping excited!! You have no idea. I will be the most creative person ever!!

This is the washer and dryer we brought from Shea and Curtis. I love doing laundry in my own house!
The couch and coffee table that Christopher's grandparents gave to us. It goes so well in our living room!
This is a letter I wrote to myself that I was supposed to open at 25. I thought I would have left myself some profound 18 year old wisdom...no, 18 year olds don't have wisdom...I was a silly 18 year old.
Andrew took me to this place called Mimi's Cafe. It's this french place and I love it!!
Andrew putting together this towel holder thingie.
And this is it finished!


We painted pumpkins at Andrew's mom's house. Would you believe that they grew these in their garden? They are amazing!

Anthony's pumkins


Andrew's and my pumpkin (his is on the left and mine is on the right)
And Doreen's pumpkin.

The Orem Library is beautiful! They have such fun stuff inside!

Beautiful stained glass windows
This cool Harry Potter castle someone made
This funny boat with stuffed people on it.
And a theater place for story time!




This is the building where I work: Vivint!

This is a huge spider I found today!! Groodie!! I hate spiders!! Why can't Andrew be home when I need him!

Books

Here are some of the books I've been reading lately.

Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood is odd.I'm almost done with it and it doesn't make any sense to me at all. I'm sensing a theme with this author.
This book the Blind Assassin was weird. It didn't make any sense until the last 10 pages.

These are super good and the first movie comes out March 23,2011!

Breaking Dawn comes out November 18,2011

My next book to read is called
Melissa and Christopher read it and watched the movie and they said that they liked it. I hope I do too!

Baby Madeline and other stuff.

Yay for new babies!!

I am an aunt again! I love it! This little bundle of joy joined us on Aug 16th! Isn't she cute!



Megan I guess wasn't too thrilled with the new addition just yet but Megan was loving it!


Other than that not too much is happening. Work is good for both of us and we finally got internet that actually works! Yay! So hopefully that means we can post more often!
I thought the parentheses was funny because it's true!
Andrew's work is actually moving his department down the road a little bit to have more room for them to work in.

Someone at Andrew's work took this picture the other day of these awesome rainbows. Our truck is front and center and it looks really pretty!
