Sister Letters and Exquisite Bows

My kind step-mom made these amazing bows for me to give to the woman who introduced me to everyone and helped me find a job! You can find more of her bows on her website! My sisters are the models!

Speaking of sisters... my little sisters in California wrote me these sweet letters! I am one lucky big sister  and now I have a beautiful fridge to remind me everyday! 


All ready of orientation, so exciting! I have one day left of lecture; Tuesday is my first official day of training on the floor, I can hardly wait! 

We are a workin' pair! :)

Super Saturdays

So much fun! I was so proud of all the crafts I got done :) I wish I would have taken pictures of all the amazing crafty ladies who put this together! I loved getting to know everyone and getting tips on how to make these crafts correctly!


Finished products!

I am so excited to have decorations in our home! The little block on the pilgrim will soon say "blessings" on it! 

New Cars

This is our new car "Black Mamba". We bought it off craigslist... took us a bit to get it registered and legal but its finally ours and ready to ride!

Fall Festival's

B and I have heard nothing but how wonderful the fall festvals are around here; we were lucky enough to be invited to one this morning! It was so much fun; tons of crafts and unique decorations to look at (I wish I had brought my camera),  rope makers, a black smith making nails, and tons of food vendors. This will definitely not be the last one we go to!
They had so many fun earrings, I got the bat and the pumpkin to be festive for Halloween!

Brian finally got a haircut!! We had a friend from our ward do it and she did a great job!!   We also bought a used G35 Infiniti this past week! We will post pictures soon, it is under Brian's construction.. he is pretty amazing with fixing things; born to be an engineer!

Excellent Theme Park's

B's work reserved King Dominion Amusement Park this past weekend and lowered their price for the tickets, this is an offer we could not refuse! We still have yet to explore Busch Garden's, it is just down the road from where we live! This place is known for it's thrilling roller coaster's and it did not disappoint!



This is THE DOMINATOR behind us, it has the second largest loop in the world (this was our 3rd favorite,  Volcano being our second). This is a better picture of the coaster!

This was our ultimate favorite! Holy Cow, this ride is called THE INTIMIDATOR and it definitely lived up to it's name. Everyone at the the park was telling us that we would black out if we sat in the front... they failed to mention that if we sat in the back row we would still blackout!! It was always at the same part, things would get fuzzy for us and turn black for about 5 seconds, which is pretty long for a ride! We went 3 times in a row and needed to take a break after blacking out so much! The line was pretty short; we think it was because everyone was afraid of it, a valid emotion for this ride!

1st time: we rode in the front, we were in a daring mood!
My thought process while on the coaster: O my gosh! My stomach is going to explode!!
B's thought process while on the coaster: I hope we don't hit a bird, we will for sure die!

2nd time: Back Row; not as scary but still got us good!

3rd time: Strike a pose!


We decided to ride our second favorite for our last ride. We got to sit down for a bit because the ride had technical difficulties; we quite enjoyed it!
What a fun memory we shared!
