finished ..

so pretty much all i have been doing today is reading ..and as of a couple hours ago i finished the hunger games! it was SO good.  every one should read it ..i loved it!  i am making curt hurry and finish the book he is reading so he can start this one.  i need the second book in the trilogy right now! i ordered it ..its called catching fire ..BUT its on back order for who knows how long.  ugh ..i'm tempted to just go buy it right now at barnes and noble ..hmm what to do. 

i know what everyone else should do .. read this book. 

the end.

the nutcracker ..

tonight we went and saw cute keslee in the nutcracker ..she did so good!  she has the cutest smile and was the best buffoon out there!  every year when we go watch the ballet it always brings back memories ..ballet was a huge part of my life growing up.  i spent many summers at ballet camps and dedicated so many hours to ballet it is crazy to think i don't dance now .. sad! ..i have danced since i was four years old and i have been in ten nutcracker performances .. loved every one!  dancing will always be a part of me and i am so glad i have nieces who love it too .. here are some pictures of me, curt, cux, jj, keslee, and kambree!

 

 

 

great job keslee ..we love you!

on a side note ..i am reading the best book.  and i would recommend it to anyone who is dying for something good to read.  pretty much all of curt's family has read this book as well as the sequel and LOVE it ..i am about half way through and can't put it down ..soooo  check it out! the hunger games trilogy by suzanne collins ..very good!

family traditions ..

so a lot of families have many different traditions ..one of mine that i remember the most growing up was going to the university of utah basketball games.  this tradition actually started way before i was born but growing up you could always find my family at the utah games.  it was always so much fun ..our 'utah neighbors' ..[the people we have had season tickets by for as long as i can remember] ..dippin dots after halftime ..the 2nd half song ..HEY - hey baby! i wanna knoooooww -will you be my girl .. [we loved this song for some reason] ..getting chalupas at taco bell after the games ..and always cheering for our favorite team as a family.  once cux and i hit high school we became 'too cool' to go to the games ..but now we have grown up and know what is important ..being with family ..at utah basketball games! :)

well tonight was the first game this season that i've been to unfortunately ..but it was a great game.  we played the utah state aggies and boy were there tons of aggie fans in the crowd ..their student section was probably bigger than ours!  curt had to go take a practice LSAT test so he couldn't come :( .. so i went and sat in the MUSS with cux ..wow students are crazy.  it was way cool sitting so close tho ..i'm used to the tickets that are way up high.  it was a blast tho ..my mom, dad, and jj weren't too far up from us so we weren't that far away ..it was a very close game and we ended up winning by one single point ..talk about exciting.  since curt is a student at the U we joined the muss so i'm his 'buddy' all year ..we'll have to get our muss t shirts soon!  i hope curt and i can go to a lot of the games this year ..its just fun to be there cheering on the utes!  ..i know my dad will be there! love ya pops ..

here is a picture of cux, jj, and me with these crazy basketball hats they were handing out at half time ..

well until the next game ..GO UTES!

husband to the rescue ..

so yesterday morning on my way to work ..i got in my car and noticed i was getting close to needing some gas.  i was running a little late so i decided to get gas after work ..well as you can imagine this was not a good idea.

i was driving up first south in salt lake to get the university hospital ..right when i hit about 13th east ..[and start going up the hill] ..my car starts to jerk and my gas pedal isn't working.  oh i start praying i will make it at least to work ..and i get about 100 yards from the parking lot and my car dies ..ughhhh!  worst feeling ever ..so i call curt and wake him up freaking out.  my gas light never went on and i should have had at least thirty more miles to go before i ran out of gas.  i don't know what the deal was ..well curt saved me bright and early in the morning with some gas for my car.  thanks baby ..

while i was waiting ..my lovely sister pulls up behind me.  she was on her way to school and noticed my car with the warning lights on.  it made my day ..haha thanks cux!  from now on i am filling my car when the gas tank gets down to like a quarter of a tank left.  that was not a fun experience ..

well after that fun morning ..i get home from work and i find these pretty things on the counter with a little note ..

they are beautiful ..isn't my hubby the bestest! .. i just love him SO much ..

well he has been up to some fun stuff ..other than waking up early and bringing gas to his stranded wifey.  he has had some hunting adventures ..he shot a deer and has been out duck hunting with tacoma a lot.  his dad and brothers also drew tags for the cougar hunt so a kid i work with is taking everyone mountain lion hunting sometime soon.  they are pretty stoked .. gotta love hunting! :)

curt and his deer ..a little spike

tacoma in his kennel ..not so excited.

but ..excited about those two ducks in front of him!

look at all the duckies ..and the fog.  so pretty ..

but probably cold ..glad i wasn't there freezing to death.

and look at this door with pretty fall leaves ..

random ..but cool.  i found it up at the U and thought it was sweet ..curt thinks i'm weird. 

well we have a fun week ahead of us.  the annual nutcracker ballet up in ogden.  we get to go watch keslee ..she is a buffoon and will be soooo freakin cute.  and the long wait for new moon is almost over ..i hope its better then the first movie.  we are going with my mom and sister ..can't wait!  we'll take lots of pictures ..hopefully.

Peace & Hubby

what we do ..

so today ..we had a pretty lazy day.  i didn't work ..and curt didn't go to school.  so .....we did what we do best.  spend money ..and it was sure fun!  ..the guilt did eventually set in but then i just looked at my new clothes and shoes and i felt all better! :)

we started the day by sleeping in until eleven ..wonderful!  then curt went and played ball and wanted to take me out to eat at a place close to where he plays ball ..so i went with him!  he plays every monday and thursday with his dad and brothers out in west valley by their offices.  so ..we went to the ghettos to eat ..and it was delicious!  

curt is standing on my car ..

this place had WAY good sushi ..we love sushi.  we always get at least four rolls whenever we order sushi and we eat it all.  sooooo delicious!  we got a vegas, crunchie, new york, and mt fuji rolls.  we sat at the sushi bar ..i wanna learn how to make sushi.  it is so cool watching those sushi masters ..  nothing ever beats happy sumo when it comes to sushi but this place came close.

then ..being in the ghettos and being right next to a walmart after lunch ..we hit up wally world.  don't you worry ..we got so much stuff.  gave them way too much business today but i needed some new mascara and lotion  ..ended up getting some miley cyrus brand clothes [you know it] and ..... in one of our pointless purchases of the day we bought hardy a coat/vest.  it is getting cold and this poor little puppy needs something to keep him warm!  he looked so cute ..but it took him a while getting used to it.  i think tacoma was a little jealous.  they are funny dogs .. fashion show time!

oh yes ..that ghetto.  skull and cross bones ..

 

 

oh his cute hood that he hates ..

here is a video of hardy attempting to get it off .. and tacoma trying to help him.

we then went to forever young shoes ..love this place for cheap shoes!  i got me two new pairs of boots ..that are super cute.  they have everything buy one get the second pair half off so of course i had to buy two .. when i wear them ..hopefully with a cute new outfit i will post a picture.

then we went to our next favorite store close by the shoe store ..barnes and noble.  this is our favorite store ..and we bought four new books ..[ya way too many] ..by an author that curt found and likes so far ..

well to end this long pointless post i have some more funny pictures of our puppies ..  i was putting my new stuff away and i look at our dogs and this is what i found ..

then literally 30 seconds later ...

and another 15 seconds ....

lazy sleepy dogs .. hardy is layin there chillin while he's sleeping. hmm ..  well this is the end ..

halloween blackout ..

so halloween was a fun filled day for us ..it started with curt's LSAT class [not so fun] and me getting a hair cut [so fun] ..then we went costume shopping for our puppies! we had found outfits for them earlier but just never bought them so we decided now was a good time. every halloween curt's family meets for soup ..pictures ..and trick or treating around his parents cul de sac ..the kids were dressed up so freakin cute and even some parents got all dolled up for the night. it is always so fun being with family ..i didn't get too many pictures of the kids but more than enough of us and our crazy dogs ..enjoy.







well then we left the party a little early to meet up with my family and go to the utah football game ..it was the blackout game of the year so everyone was in black ..except me. i was wearing my new coat and brought curts old ski jacket ..[which was black] ..but it luckily never got cold enough to wear it. so i was kind of the odd one in a purple coat in a sea of black. oh well ..i'm glad the weather was better then we had planned. it was a close and frustrating game but the utes ended up winning in the end. go utes ..!




oh and before we left we put out a big bowl full of candy ..like tons .. and we thought for sure a little bit would be gone not all of it but ..you guessed it ..every single piece of candy was gone when we got home ..we have some very candy hungry children in our neighborhood apparently ..

Peace & Halloween
