Something to blog about.....

This weekend was a Pumpkin weekend! We made pumpkin pies and carved a jack-o-lantern. My mother in law taught me how to make pumpkin pie. YUMMY! It turns out that it is very easy, and tastes delicious! Thanks Julie! And thank you Michelle for helping me and teaching me how to make home made whip cream.
This is our funny jack-o-lantern, he makes me happy!

I got a new car




This is my new car, well, I guess it is new to me. It is a 2005 Accord, and it is so nice to have a reliable car. We just got it yesturday. Chase helped me realize that this is the first car I have bought that is for me to drive. After realizing that, I feel that I should take this moment to thank my mom and dad for the many cars they have bought for me in the past, THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU GUYS!

It's been awhile

Hello everyone. This weekend I was reminded that I last posted on our blog in May, and I need to make some changes. So, thanks to Julia, I now know how to decorate and make the blog look cute- THANKS JULIA! I am still learning how to do things, so it doesn't look perfect yet. I am going to try to be better and think of creative things to start posting.

Rocky Point













I can finally say I have been to Mexico! Thanks to Christy for finding the condo, and everyone planning the last minute trip. It was worth it, and it was nice to get away from work and school to relax. The city was crazy with everyone trying to sell you stuff, but it is always fun to see other cultures. The ocean was so nice!!! I did not realize how much I missed it! It had been almost two years since I had seen the ocean. It was fun to swim in, but the waives where a little big for me, so the waive runners where really fun to ride. I can not wait for out next adventure!!!

Want to go swimming?








Don't you want a Paddlock Pool???? Don't worry for those of you who might have a Paddlock pool, I don't think that the people that owned this pool ever cleaned it in the 12 years they had it. Chase and Nic are fixing it up. The pool was full of dark green water with ducks and tadpoles swimming in the water. It was literally a swamp in these people's back yard! It was so nasty! These are pictures of the pool while Chase was cleaning it up. I am so excited to see the finished product, maybe we can go swimming soon!

Strawberry Jam

Amber and I are continueing the tradition of making mom's strawberry jam! We had a fun morning. After going to three super markets to find mason jars, we finally got everything that we needed. I can't wait until it's ready to eat. Yummy
This strawberry was HUGE!!!!! After I cut the stem out, it was the perfect size to fit your nose, Amber is modeling that for us; don't worry, we washed it off so there are no bugers in the jam :)
