So long Panda

Well guys, today was my last day at Panda Express!!!
There were a few things I liked and didn't like about working there. In all though I think it is a good place to work at. I definitely liked it more than Red Robin.

I will now have a little vacation before I start school in January. I will also be able to have the schedule I want and be able to spend time with my husband on the weekends. Although it is a pay cut, I think I will be happier not working there. Man, people can be super rude sometimes and really messy.

It was nice knowing you Panda. I'm sure I'll be back for a visit since its Drew's favorite.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Well thanksgiving is over, you know what that means! Christmas music, Christmas lights, Christmas tree, Christmas Christmas Christmas!
I seriously can't believe it's already this time of year. Where did the time go?
Yesterday Drew and I went to the Broadmoor hotel for their lights ceremony. It was nice going out just the two of us and walk around. The lights were so pretty.
Today I finished getting our Christmas tree ready and put up some lights on our porch :) I am so excited for Deacember!

Count your Blessings

It's thanksgiving! The day where we spend time with our family, stuff ourselves with turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes, and most importantly when we think of all the wonderful blessings we have received.

We had our thanksgiving yesterday with my in-laws. It is always wonderful spending time with them. We had so much food. We gobbled down some turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, sweet potatoes, homemade Mac and cheese, rolls, and some cauliflower cheese bake thing I made. It was such a delicious dinner. We relaxed and played games.

It wasn't all so pleasant yesterday. My day started off awful. I got a brush stuck in my hair. It was ridiculous. I won't even go on telling you the story, just know that it sucked. I went to go pick up a roasting pan from a friend with a brush in my hair. She tried to work it out but I had to get going. We went to my in-laws with the brush still in my hair. My sister-in-law Joslyn and my father-in-law were working on it as we'll. Then Drew worked on it and he got it out! Other than that it was a good day.

Today I am making a turkey just for the two of us and having a mini thanksgiving with just us. I hope it turns out good. We are going to have stuffing and mashed potatoes with gravy and apple pie. And of course we are going to watch football with dad (father-in-law). We are also thinking about doing the Black Friday shopping. We'll see if that actually happens or not.

Now for what I'm thankful for.
I have been blessed with such a loving, caring, hard working, dedicated husband. He does so much for our little family and I appreciate everything he does. I couldn't ask for a better husband to be by my side.
I am also grateful for such wonderful families. My in-laws are awesome! And I am so blessed to have in-laws that love me :) I am especially grateful for my father-in-law because I actually feel like I have a dad to go to and who loves me. I am also grateful for my mom and dad. My mom and mother-in-law are both so sweet. My mom is always there for me. I wish she were closer. I am also grateful for my dad. He has helped me with so much over the years.
I am grateful for a nice home to live in. I absolutely love our new place. I'm grateful for our jobs which have given us financial security and for the food we have to eat and our cars we have to travel. Even though the car I drive is as old as me I am still so very grateful for a car. It gets me from here to there and it's not bad.
I am also so very grateful for the gospel in my life and for the blessings which Heavenly Father has given me. I am grateful that I was able to go through the temple and experience such an awesome thing. I am grateful to know the truth and for such a loving Heavenly Father.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving guys! I hope you remember what you have been blessed with and stuff your faces with yummy food :)

Something Sweet

I am starting up a little business with a lady I work with from the school. We are going to be selling treats like cupcakes, cake balls, chocolate, fudge, and such. We did our first craft fair about a week or two ago. It went alright. Drew has gotten us some customers from his work. Thank you Drew! We are just barely starting out. I hope it goes well.
Oh and December 1st is my last day at panda! Then I'll have a little bit of time before I start school in January.

New look

Well guys I dyed my hair. I went a little bit out of my usual. I was nervous at first for doing something completely different than what I'm used to but I actually like it. What do you guys think?

Halloween?

I know it's way into November but I just wanted to share my cute little craft I did for Halloween. I decorated our door. Oh and share what drew dressed up as. He had to dress up for work. They let kids go into the center where he works and trick or treat in there. I too had to work that night but we weren't allowed to dress up.

Delayed news

Well guys I'm back!
Sorry it has been a while.
There has been a lot that has happened in the past 3 months. First off, we moved to a new apartment. We absolutely love it! We have an extra room, patio, fireplace, pantry, dining room, walk-in closet, vanity, private entrance and water is free! We just pay electric. Here are a few pics of the new place. Oh and the best part is that our friends Jeff and Jenny are moving in to these apartments next month!


Hope you enjoy the tour of our apartment :)
