OK so this post isn't going to be very pictureful either but i had to let the world know what we have been up to... In the past two week we have put 3000 miles on our car and paid way too much for gas! We got back into Utah on friday the fifteenth. We hunted for apartments...it took way too long to find a good one. We had a wedding on the 20th and a luncheon on the 19th, all of which we helped set up and take down. Then we went to Lake Powell the night of the 20th and stayed there for 3 days of bliss. We came home. School started on the 25, and that night we moved all of our crap into our cute new apartment!! Wow life has been busy. On top of all of that we are both still jobless... looking, but jobless. So I know no pictures is boring but deal with it!

WOW. How time flies! Well in the past month my family came to visit, we lived through a tropical storm, and now the summer is coming to an end. Can you believe I come home in a few days!! I am super excited!! I know that this isn't much but... I have been short on time. So farewell for now and I will update in a better fashion .

Today's Advnture!

So we had a little crazy fun and went .... SKYDIVING!! It was really fun! Hopefully I can get more pictures from some of the other people that were there.
This is us being nervous... can't you tell?
This is the plane that we jumped out of.
This is the crew. I was the only girl that jumped!
This is us in our jumping gear. About 15 min. later we were free falling from 14000 feet!! I was hooked on to a guy named Matt. Ironic huh? So we free fell from 14000 feet to 6000 feet when he pulled the cord and floated nicely down to the ground. I was sick for the rest of the day... with ear aches and woosyness, but it was worth it!!


For our 1 year anniversary Matt got me a Blackberry 8830 phone.... and I LOVE IT. Isn't she beautiful!!

We went to Moody Gardens for our 1 year anniversary. It was a ton of fun! The Aquarium was awesome!! We sat in there for hours looking at the fish.
Matt touching his first starfish.
I think that I look good as a frog don't you...
We wore these awesome glasses for the IMax movies.

Fun In The Sun!

A girl from our ward who is my friend and her daughter came with us to the beach. We had fun playing in the mud!

This is us at the fire works from our view at the nursing home. Matt the wonderful husband that he is came and we watched the fire works from work.... yes I had to work. But it ended up being a good night!
The view from the nursing home.
The illegal fireworks that we enjoyed. Did you know that it is illegal to do even sparklers in the city limits... the cops came over and let us know.
These are the two women that I work with everyday! They are amazing and so good to me!

I bought very dark purple finger nail polish and actually wore it on my fingernails. It was fun!

Us Hard Workers

Matt and I after a long day at work. You know working inside hasn't done much for my tan... or lack there of! Matt on the other hand is getting a nice tan being in the sun everyday. But the question is, is it worth it being in the hot sun?

I tried twice to post a movie and each time it said it was loading for over on hour... it shouldn't take that long! The movie was of the storm that we had yesterday. It was the scariest storm that I have ever experienced. First the TV just said that there was a thunderstorm warning and to stay in the house and away from the windows. Then they added tornato warnings. I looked out the window and it was still sunny. Then out of nowhere I hear thunder. I go outside and there is lightening striking uncomfortably close followed by thunder that shook the whole appartment builing. I called Matt, the worrie wart that I am, to make sure that he wasn't in the storm. Then the rain started in sheets, with wind and man alive I thought that a hurricain had to be on its way. Once again I called Matt.... no rain yet. After it had been raining here for 30 min and it started to slow down Matt calles me and tell me that it was pouring where he was and that the lightening was really really close. Oh man... what a storm. No worries we are all alive and well!
Matt and I took a trip to visit his older sister Jennifer's grave here in Houston. We actually drove past the main part of Houston for the first time since we have been down here. We got lost trying to find the cemetery and stopped at a gas station to ask. The lady at the front was like yeah it is right there... lucky huh?
