Happy Halloween!

Our friends the Bridges held a halloween party last night. We had a good time! It was our first Halloween pary that we've been to together. We played games, ate good food, and told scary stories. Jared and I didn't put much effort into our costumes cuz we went straight from school to the party. There were some great costumes at the party! Next year I promise we'll come up with something better:) Here are a few pictures that I got from Kassidi's blog..thanks Kassidi!

Scary costumes Corban and Teneill!

Brandon and Kassidi Bridge..or should I say the Iraqi royalty?

All of us playing games

An Early Birthday Present

Ta dah! Jared and I picked out our new couches for my birthday present! This is the loveseat and the sofa has three cushions. They look like they are leather but they are microfiber. We don't have them yet though cuz they are being ordered from Ashley Furniture to Great Northern Furniture in Pleasant Grove for us. We got a killer deal! The store is closing so all the prices are extremely low. They should be in the first week of November.

Update...

I am actually writing this post from home...we got the internet installed today! We are looking foward to not spending so much time on campus doing homework now.12 hour days on campus are just too much.

The 3rd weekend in September we got together with Jared's family in Island Park, Idaho. We stayed at Uncle John's cabin. It was a lot of fun being with that many of Jared's family. We went 4-wheeling, canned tomatoes (yes I married into an ambitious family-thanks for crackin the whip Grandma Arlene:), visited, and of course ate a lot of really good food. The 4-wheeling trails were a lot of fun but I don't think i've ever been dustier in my enitre life. The first picture above is of Jared's mom Sherry, his brother Jorden, Jared's dad Wayne,and sister Heather. I'm sure Heather will love this picture:)

Then came conference weekend and Mom and Dad came for a visit. Dad had a fun time teasing Lenny and Lenny had a good time chewing Dad up. I think we should have named him Shercon after the tiger from the Jungle Book. By the way Lenny is neutered now too! Anyways, Boston was a little afraid of Lenny. We did have a good time playing baseball with Jackie's kids and listening to conference together. Duke was also able to come over for a visit. He has been the "secret" mascot for his school he is teaching at. So he brought his wolf suit along to scare the kids. It definitely did. Poor Cooper was so scared he fell to the ground. I thought he had passed out. You sure make a good wolf Duke! AND ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! ~Ladies he's single;)

Thanks Dad and Mom for coming to visit! See you soon!
