Shooting with the Fam,

Friday after Thanksgiving.

Its December already?!

Well we just finished watching A Christmas Story for the first time this month.

I don't think there's any better way to start off the season.

This is one of my favorite pumpkins I have ever seen. I just think it is so Clever and funny. I wish I could say it is mine.

Happy Halloween!

This has been a fun weekend so far. Friday night Scott and I went and ate at Waldo's. Yes. We did have a skookie.

Then we went and saw "The Invention of Lying" (Lame!) Don't waste your time. The main character is funny but other than that, kinda boring. Scott fell asleep about 20 minutes into it.

This morning, Emily, Jess, Lori, Alyse and I went to the flea market. I'll just say that it Rocked. We havn't gotten together in a while so it was alot of fun. shoulda taken pics! Click here to see what prizes I found there!

Then I came home and started workin on a few little projects. It was a nice Saturday :)

Our Happy 3rd Anniversary!

Scott and I have tried to stay busy. I am still working full time. I finally have started school. I am doing the interior design program at Mcc. I have absolutely Loved my first class which is Drafting. I feel like some of the basic things I have really been wanting to learn, we have touched base on in my class. I'm glad that is the one I started with. I'm also taking an online english class but thats not that intersting. I'm not a fan of online classes. They are way annoying but oh well.

Scott is doing good. Him and his friend Ty have their own landscaping business. It works out really good with his school schedule. He is able to take a full schedule. He is really excited to be getting closer to finishing. He's hoping he will be done in May, so less than a year!

Summertime

Scott had a break from school so we went to the most magical place on earth! we spent 2 full days at Disneyland! We had so much fun. We found a great deal on tickets on craigslist! (There's nothing that man doesn't have on that list of his.) So we drove to Anaheim on Wed. after work and checked in to our hotel. It was right down the road so Thurs. morning we hopped on the bus that took us to the Magical Kingdom. It was perfect weather! We went to a few rides in Disneyland, then went to California Adventure for a few hours which I'd never been to. Let me just say that the Hollywood Hotel- Tower of Terror ROCKS! It was probably my favorite. It was so nice knowing we had another whole day the next day! We never had to rush, we just took our time enjoying every part of the day. We explored every nook and cranny of that park! Did everyone know you can go in the castle?! well i didnt! until then. Scotts friend Ty said there is a hotel room inside of it somewhere. of course there is! Thats the beauty of Disneyland. They can do whatever they want! We stayed there the first day until it closed. The next day we were back! bright and early! Ready for round two! We got so lucky. Since we had fast passes, we never had to wait in line. Or we would go in the single's line and end up getting to sit by each other. We went on almost every single ride, or exhibit they had. Besides It's a small world. We were like 2 little kids runnin around chompin on our churro's, followin our little map, balloons tied to our wrists, micky mouse ears on..... no i'm jk, we didn't get balloons or mouse ears. It was such a fun two days! We were beat though!

I think the funniest part was on the 2nd day. I wanted to watch the parade, so we had a good seat on a bench. I went to get ice cream for us while Scott saved our spot. About 20 minutes later, on my way back I look up to see Scott still on the bench, but smooshed right next to him is this little round indian lady. i'm pretty sure they're arms were touching, they were so close. haha. They looked so cute together. I thought maybe he would have found us a new place to sit or something but nope. I whispered "Awe! who's your friend?" i wish so bad i would have gotten a picture of him sittin there by her. She was a good sport though.
The next day we attempted to go to the beach but it was freezing so we ended up going to an Anaheim Angels game at Angel's Stadium. It was fun! We have so much fun together.

On Friday I didn't have to work so I went hiking. We started at 8:30 and got done at about 1:30. It was perfect weather! We hiked the Bluff Springs loop. I had fun. The first half of the loop was soo pretty. Lots of canyons and little pools of water. The second half felt more like death valley but it was still fun. We saw a desert tortoise! I loved it! I would never expect to ever see a turtle in the wild! haha but he was just taking a stroll along the trail. That was my favorite part of the hike!
