Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Finally!!

This past Thursday night Jake and I went to the Harry Potter movie premiere. We went with a few Harry Potter nerds just like us. We spent a few months preparing for this premiere, It was so fun to dress as a bad character, Bellatrix Lastrange! Jake was also an other menacing character, Severus Snape. Everyone else was decked out in there Gryffindor clothing provided by moi :).

Here is about half of us getting ready before the movie. From left to right: Angela, Me, Nick, Jake, Abbey, and Shayla.

It was so fun to be the bad guys! I stayed in Character most of the time.

Here Jake and I are about to see the movie. It was sooo fun!! People in the theatre would stop us and tell us our costumes rocked and take pictures with us. :)


We loved the movie and can't wait for the last installment!! Left to Right: Me, Jake, Nick, Dan, Trish, Angela, Abbey, Shayla, Stacey, and Brandon.

Harry Potter 7 Days!!!

I just wanted to inform the masses, if you don't know all ready, the first installment of the last Harry Potter movie comes out in exactly 1 week! Jake and I are very excited and of course we are going to the midnight premier along with a few friends. Below is a picture of my alter-ego, Bellatrix Lastrange j/k :). I will be dressing as Bellatrix Lastrange for the premiere. I will definitely post pictures of the whole thing! I can't believe it's only 1 week! Yay!!!

Halloween 2010

This Halloween was especially fun. The highlight was definitely Jake's, Angie's, and Dan's costumes. Below you can see the original picture taken about 20 yrs ago on Halloween. Jake was a cute pirate, Angie, the California Raisin, and Dan is a sweet little bunny. On the right is their re-enactment of that Halloween. Angie even found a California Raisin costume on EBay. It was so fun!!

I was Little Red Ridding Hood
Me and my Baby Pumpkin :)

I can't wait till next Halloween. It is by far my favorite holiday. I love being with family and friends, the crisp fall weather, dressing up in fun costumes, the smell of jack-o-lanterns lit up out on the streets, children laughing and playing, trick or treating, and sometimes getting really scared!

Halloween at School

Today I threw a Holloween Party for my Class. We had a blast! There was a drawing for a prize, a costume contest, we watch Nightmare Before Christmas, and played a Jepordary Test Review Game.

Here is my student Jacklyn and I. She was my assistant for the Test Review Game, and I think we also look super cute as Dorothy and Little Red Riding Hood

Here are the results of the costume contest

(left to right)Me-Little Red Riding Hood: Best Overall. Jacklyn- Dorothy: Funniest.

Michelle-Love Bug: Most Creative. Chy-Pirate: Scariest

This Party was so fun! My students rock!

High School Friends

This past Saturday I got together with some of my best friends from high school. A few of us still hangout but it has been years since we have all been in the same state together. It was so much fun to reminisce and catch up on everything. It's kinda strange that we all look pretty close to the same as we did in high school. We must be aging very gracefully :)

Amber, Me, Christine, Katie, Katie, and Bekah

Here we are just goofing around. It totally reminds me of how silly we used to be. Christine is talking to a baby on the floor but it totally looks like she is having labor pains. Haha!

Phillip in the Future

I've had a lot of people ask me, "What is Phillip going to look like when he is all grown up?" I have tried to explain it but a picture is better than anything.

Below is a current picture of me and Phillip. I know, he is the cutest dog ever!!!

Here is a couple stock photos of an adult Cavalier. I definately think Phillip will be more handsome cause nobody is as cute as Phillip!

But this is the best example, I think, of what he will look like. Lady! on Lady and the Tramp. If you haven't seen this famous Disney movie then shame on you! Go to your grandma's house and watch it. (I'm assuming that all grandma's own every Disney movie!) I love my puppy and I am so excited to see him grow into a handsome dog!

Up The Canyon

This past weekend we decided to go up to the local east millcreek canyon and roast some hot dogs. A few family members met us up there and we celebrated our birthdays. My birthday was the 28th and Jake's was the 29th so we like to celebrate them together.

Everyone getting prepared for the roasting of dogs :)

I look like I am so excited to eat, haha!

Taylor, Kaitlyn, and Cameron being silly.

Angela, Phillip, and I trying to stay warm by the fire.

Oh, how sweet.

Sisters: Dianne, Sharlene, and Marianne.

Cousins having a blast, Hailey, Brian, and Erin.

Happy Birthday Jake! I love you and I am so excited to spend forever with you!
