well that wasn't right...

SO we are going to a halloween party tomorrow night and everyone is supposed to bring a "spooky treat" you know like mummy hot dogs and graveyard brownies, etc... SO I go to Kraft recipes to find something cute to make (it's a contest afterall) and I find this..

 Isn't it beautiful??? oh and spooky??? anyways so I picked up the stuff to make it when I was at the grocery store, come home and get to work since I am going to be too busy to make it tomorrow.

ya....................
besides getting cocoa powder EVERYWHERE.... this is what I got! DO you think I did something wrong?

Guess it's mummy dogs with cute little mustard dot eyes....

busy busy!

Colby has been busy!

He finished our floors! All of them! The only floor related item left to do is to put the quarter round molding around the edges! They are gorgeous!!

He finished our tile! He tiled both the upstairs bathrooms and the downstairs laundry room! The dogs were "helping" me with the laundry...

We got new knobs for all of our cabinets! It makes a world of difference but it still doesnt make our "pinkish" cabinets look any better! :) I can't wait until we paint those suckers!

and because he is cute!

I get to teach the relief society lesson tomorrow. That is my new calling and it is my first official week teaching and I am a little nervous. It was a talk from the Ensign which means I had to make up my own questions! Those lesson manuals are good for something! :)

In other news, My photography business has really been picking up! and I am so excited about it!! I have tried to revamp my photo blog page to make it look more professional! And I learned how to make my own logo using photoshop! Woohoo! I am hoping that it keeps getting busier! My goal is one photo session a week!

Grandfather Mountain

Besides sucking at follow through life has been pretty busy. It seems like I have been going non stop doing stuff for the past month! I'm not complaining! I love being busy and have missed it terribly!! This past Sunday we headed up to Grandfather Mountain which is right next to the Blue Ridge Parkway. The colors were beautiful! The colors would probably have been better this coming weekend but oh well!
We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the country! This is something you can't experience in Las Vegas! :)

Movie Night!

Day 31- Well we had our weekly movie night tonight. Our night started off with some interesting information that left us pondering the rest of the evening. Right when you think there are no BIG decisions to be made in the near future bam. decision time..
we then headed over to the Verizon store to activate Colbys new phone, then to Target to eat a fabulous dinner (see picture below!)!
Then we headed off to Colby softball game that got rain delayed/suspended and they have to finish the last 17 minutes at a later time..even though they were winning 16-2!
After the almost finished game we headed off to the movies and saw Easy A. I thought it was funny, Colby thought it was alright. If I had a choice to see it again I would wait until it came out at redbox..
Then it was midnight when we got home and the dogs were angry monsters!

I know you are jealous of our very own personal pan pizza hut pizza from the target food court!

there was a fire at the day spa next to the movie theatre.. too many candles i guess!

if...

Day 30-Well this post is going to be lame.  I was feeling pretty blah today so I went to the grocery store made a salad and caught up on some shows that I am already behind on.
Thats all.

So if I could take a picture of my very uninspiring day it would be of my tv. which i am not going to take by the way!

The end.

busy day

Day 29-Today was a very busy day. Work was pretty busy but then when I got home I got even busier. I video chatted with Brooke, started these garlic cheese rolls, left to go visiting teaching, came back and went on a walk, then I finished baking the bread and started looking at some college info for my sister. 

whew. I am ready for bed.

This bread was delicious! It's basically a simple pizza dough, put cheese in the middle and make a butter/italian seasoning sauce and bake for 15. Yumm definitely a new staple recipe! 

the master is at it again!

Colby finished the tiling of the master bathroom floor yesterday. It had been done minus the sealing so we finished that part together! Finally something I can do! :)

It makes it look like a completely different bathroom! There are still a lot of things to be accomplished in here but its a huge start!
