Nates's Birthday

So.. For Nate's birthday we went to a U of A basketball game, which he loves going to! We won that game too, so that was good. It was really fun! Our basketball team hasn't been doing so well since we started losing after our 7 game winning streak!

This picture was taken a while ago, on our one year anniversary actually. We were eating cake from our wedding day that my dad had frozen for a year! So that was a nice surprise to eat cake from our wedding. Time goes so fast! We have already now been married a year and four months!

I have not posted in forever! School and life just seems to get so busy.

Christmas was so much fun! We got to visit both of our families and enjoyed lots of good food. We put up lights in our window and obviously we put up a tree! We put up our tree the weekend after Thanksgiving because we had time and we were really excited for Christmas. I'm sad Christmas is already over. It seems like it came so fast!

So...
School has been very hectic lately because I have 5 mid-term exams coming up, plus papers, etc. My husband is also very busy because he has a lot of tests and presentations as well! School is very stressing sometimes. I just talked to my advisor on Wednesday and I for sure am going to graduate a year from December! Which I am soooooo EXCITED about. Basically that means that after this semester I will only have ten classes left. Anyway, I also just found out that there is such a thing as summer financial aid! Hmm... so I will definately take summer classes if I am eligible for that!
I am really liking all of my classes. I really do love my major. I am so happy to be finally taking classes that I want to take, not classes that I have to take!
Anyways, So this year for thanksgiving we were supposed to go to my husbands parents house, but they ditched us and are going to Utah! JK they are not ditching us, but they are going to Utah for Nate's sisters vocal performance thing. It is a big thing so that is totally cool. So we get to hang out with my parents again which is fine with me also! I am so looking forward to Thanksgiving break though. We also dont have to travel very far because my dad and sisters live in Mesa, Az. Which is like an hour and 45 minutes away. I also cant wait for the holidays to arrive! I LOVE the holidays. I like to try to bake new stuff, (which Nate sometimes likes, depending on how it turns out). And this year my presents for my extending family - I am making homemade prickly pear jam! I already have the juice from the prickly pear, I just need to make it into jam. Anyway have a good day everyone!

Pictures

So today, I am going to try to add a picture to the blog.. if I can figure out how. The pictures I want to add are the ones from our honeymoon last January. That was the funnest trip ever! And not even expensive. We went on a cruise to Baja Mexico. Anyway I will try to post those sometime soon...

Halloween

So this is my first posting on this blog! And I dont know what to write about... Nate and I are in school for atleast another year from December but that is pretty close to graduating! And.. hmm I am really excited for Halloween because we are going to a trunk or treat in our ward and we want to deck out the back of our old truck. So that will be exciting, plus we are going to carve a pumpkin! Anyway, but I dont think we are going to dress up as anything.. cuz then you have to buy costumes. But we'll see!
