Thanksgiving/Shelby's wedding!

I can't believe Thanksgiving has come and gone! Life is going by way to fast. For Thanksgiving Eric and I went to Southern California and it was amazing. I love love love California and realize how much I miss it when I leave. Hopefully Eric and I will end up living their one day. I could not believe how big the dogs have gotten! They are still soo cute and Eric really enjoyed playing with them again. I loved seeing them again too but I have to say I love the puppy stage. I keep trying to get Eric to get a cat but since he's allergic I don't think it will happen ever. Oh well!

One of the highlights of my Thanksgiving week was one of my very good friends got married. I flew up to Northern California on the Friday after Thanksgiving and flew back to Utah on Sunday. It was a really short trip but it was so awesome to be back in Roseville and to be there for her. She looked gorgeous and I was so excited to be her maid of honor. Shelby really married a great guy! I met him the night before they got married but in the short time of seeing them together I could tell how much they loved each other. It was so fun to have it be all of us girls again. The whole time I was at the wedding I just couldn't believe we were all married now. Sometimes I feel like we were just in high school yesterday. Crazy how time flies!

As for Eric and I we are back in Utah still trying to find jobs and housing. It has been a little harder than I expected but I know everything will work out the way it is suppose to. I admit I am getting a little impatient and I really want my own space again but I am trying to focus on the positive because at least we have a place to stay. My favorite time of the year is here so I think I will try and focus on the happy spirit of the season as well.

halloween!!

For Halloween this year Eric and I ended up going to Jessica and Mika's house. We had so much fun spending time with family. We carved pumpkins, went trick or treating, and ate some candy. It was a blast seeing JoAnna race up to the houses to get as much candy as she could and by the end of the night we were all tired. Jaden was a ninja warrior, Kayden was batman, JoAnna was a witch and Josh was a BYU fan. We both really love the holidays and are looking forward to going to California for Thanksgiving. It will be awesome to be in warmer weather and once again be by the beach.

      Utah

      We made it! After a sad day of watching the thermometer in our car go from 80 to 50  we made it to Utah last Tuesday. We are going to be here for a bit to work and figure out life a little more. We have been here almost a week and it is awesome to be by family and to see our niece and nephew's! The holiday season is just around the coroner and we couldn't be more excited! We are just working on finding housing and jobs so if anyone knows of any good places to live or jobs lets us know!!

      Porsche and Bentley







      So the pups are a collie lab mix and are awesome.  We got the dogs from a very zealous dog breeder who claims that her mom "accidentally on purpose" put the male collie and female lab in the same kennel where some love making went on.  There were 5 pups in total and it was not very hard to choose who we wanted.  We played with them for an hour, but we picked these two right off the bat and kept them in the end.  Bentley is a lovable, loyal teddy bear.  Its so funny, because he'll run with you where ever you go, lay with you anywhere, defend you against other animals but is a little but slow in the brains department.  Porsche on the other hand is super prissy.  She won't go in water, does what ever she want, looks at you quizzically if you call to her, yet she is the smartest most conniving dog ever!!! She'll sneak out of the dog run, grab a toy and parade it in front of Bentley who can't figure out how to get out and proceeds to bark in frustration. Its awesome to watch the two of them in action though.  They are two peas in a pod.

      Padres game


      Chelsea and I were able to go to a Padres game on Wednesday and it was awesome. I was able to find some $60 tickets on stubhub.com for only $15!!!! It was an amazing deal. To get there we decided to take the coaster. That was a fun experience. It did take an hour to make it to San Diego, plus we then had to catch the trolley, but it was nice to not have to worry about traffic or parking. Anyway, the game was awesome, killed the Nationals (like there was ever any doubt that we would). I was literally inches away from catching a foul ball, and I still have a giant bruise on my leg from the jumping dive I made for it. All and all it was an amazing day, and I wish i had the money to afford season tickets.
