HALLOWEEN

So this year for Halloween my sister Karissa decided to join us. I made chicken noodle soup for dinner and pumpkin bread bowls! i know I know I am so festive:) we even had Sunkist to drink (because it is orange) ha ha. After we ate dinner we carved our pumpkins I had the best pumpkin this year it was the perfect size and perfectly round I was so excited to carve it but as soon as I started my ADD kicked in and I had to take a break every 5 min, So it took forever. Colby ended up finidhing mine cause he is way more patient and knows that I suck! Plus he broke the little saw that came with the kit so there was no way thatI was gonna be able to cut out the little pieces that were left. Colby is amazing at everything that he does it makes me so mad causeI try and he doesn't even have to! Karissa ended up cutting her entire picture out by mistake so we had to put it back togethere with toothpicks. It was kind of funny! But they all turned out pretty good. I love lighting them and putting them on the porch! After that we watched "The Strangers" if you haven't seen this movie you should it is the the best scary movie! Colby fell asleep (don't ask me how?). and Karissa and I were screamin on the couch by ourselves cuddling while Colby slept soundly through the whole movie. It was quite the sight! But even though we kind of had a lazy Halloween it was a good one and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Oh I almost forgot that Meatball got to dress up like a ladybug and she actually liked wearing her costume! ha ha I know we are nerds for dressing up our dog but until we have our baby to dress up then why the heck not!!

Scream Asylum

Even though I am a freakin scardy cat and so is Colby ha ha :) we decided that because it was Halloween we needed to go to a haunted house. We went last year with Cal and Haylee to a really really scary one in Salt Lake and I wanted to die I was clinging to Colby the entire time and at one point they actually made us lay down in these coffins.... I was freaking out and sat there arguing with the guy for like 10 min refusing to let go of Colby (pathetic I know) after that haunted house I swore I would never go again. But here we are a year later and feelin the need to freak ourselves out :) We had heard The Scream Asylum advertised on the radio all the time and were excited to go. I am gonna tell you right now it was not worth it at all, you basically pay $1 a minute because it is so short and not even scary! Cal and Haylee are hardcore with haunted houses so they were disapointed too. But all in all it was fun to go with them for Halloween! We have kind of made it a tradition but they never want to get pictures with us!! how rude, ha ha

MOOSE

So Colby's dad really lucked out this year hunting and got the once in a lifetime opportunity to get a moose tag. This I learned is a huge deal because you only get one moose tag and some people never draw out for one at all. So Colby was really excited and went with his dad a few times but they never saw one single thing. But Gary was determined to get one and went out one morning by himself and low and belhold his prayers were answered. Colby was a little mad that he couldn't have been there with him when he finally got it but was really excited!! he is going to make it into a full moose rug! haha, I think it is so cool and cant wait to see the rug. It's so funny how guys get so excited about killin things :)

Thats all I am gonna say...

David Spade

On October 3rd I planned a little trip for Colby because he had been working so hard. It was meant to be a suprise but the little butt was checkin up on me and looked at my bank account and saw that I had bought tickets to David Spade. He was coming to Wendover and since Colby is obsessed with gambling I thought that It woudl be fun for us to go. I never really enjoyed going to comedy shows, prob because I don't like uncomfortable silence and I get embarrassed for other people, when they feel stupid I want to crawl in a hole and die! Its weird I know!! But we saw Howie Mandel in Vegas last Valentines day and It was so fun, and hilarious! But David Spade was even better, he was so freakin funny not even kidding I loved it. He did a little bit of Joe Dirt and the famous "House Keeping" from Tommy Boy (so funny)! And it didn't help that the lady next to me laughed at everything and repeated everything that he said to her friends! what a weirdo. The best part had to be that after the show we were already down by $80 playing the stupid slots and somehow Colby turned into like an amazing psychic really... He played roulette and hit the number like a trillion times. Then we played black jack until 2:30 am by then we were up about $500 and I was fallin asleep at the tables so Colby walked me up to our room and asked if I would be mad if he went back down for a while. I thought he was kidding but he was like a kid in a candy store! So Like I could tell him he couldn't go :) I gave him $50 bucks and told him to come back when he lost it expecting him to come back soon! I heard the door open around 5:00am and He was a zombie with a per ma grin on his face! The first thing he said is that he won $300 more! I didn't believe him and then he threw all the money on the bed! over $800!! I was amazed, he said for some reason he just couldn't lose!! Geez I just love trips like that it almost makes up for all the money we usually lose!

My Manly Man!!

Colby went up to Wyoming hunting with his dad. He left around 3:3o in the morning and by 11:00 he had got this beauty! He was so excited, and I was proud of him. Even though it is kind of sad! He was clear up on top of the mountain so it would have been impossible for him to carry the entire thing to the truck so he truly was a mountain man and cut off all the meat put it in a backpack and carried the head down to the truck. He even found the bullet and brought it home. Just what I always wanted!! ha ha. Good Job Toots!

Alpine Slide

I just love fall, its my favorite time of year. I love the colors and everything about it. I had been begging Colby to take me up to the Alpine Slide for about a month and he finally gave in!! We went up and did a little shopping at the outlets. They had some pretty good deals on hoodies and stuff, Colby got a few things but I couldn't really find anything that I wanted. After that we went to Baja Cantina if you have never been there then you need to go, I used to go with my family at least once a year but now they are party poopers so I decided to keep the tradition going. They have really good Mexican food. We decided to have the nachos, they were huge and way yummy! after that we rode the lift up to go down the Alpine slide. The view was so pretty and I loved it. Thanks again for takin me colby it made my life! ha ha, love you!

By the way, I beat Colby by a mile on the Alpine Slide!
