BYU Football!

I love this time of year! School still seems new and exciting, and there is an energy in the air with all the BYU students coming back to Provo. The weather starts cooling off (well, still waiting for that...), the leaves will be changing pretty soon, and of course, fall means football! BYU's first game was yesterday, and we had a blast. Our friends Dave and Laura came down from Salt Lake because they have season tickets, and Josh's sister Hannah came up from Ephraim with a few friends. We had better seats so we ditched them during the game, but we drove together and went to dinner afterwards. The game was pretty fun, minus the 3 fumbles and a few other times we had to turn our heads. Hopefully Bronco lays the smackdown and they'll shape up for next week. And our efforts to turn Shane into a BYU fan are already working, he was kicking away throughout the game.

24 Weeks and Back to School



Well, I've busted out the maternity clothes! They are way comfy, which is nice, but sometimes I feel like a bus! At least they have some cute things out there these days. In other news, I started school last Wednesday, and things have been going good so far. The first of the year is always a little hard feeling like you're having to train a new bunch all over again and you don't know them very well yet, but it's starting to come together. And amazingly, I haven't really felt too tired or anything! I have some good kids, I would post some pictures but I've never really felt quite right about putting pictures of my kids on the internet. Rest assured, they are cute!

Jamie's Wedding and California

The past few weeks have been quite a whirlwind! After getting home from vacation in Bethany, we went to Manti for a few days to get my car fixed. Josh's car ended up totalled, so the insurance company gave us money for it and we were able to buy a nice Nissan Maxima.
I like to call them ebony and ivory

Then my whole fam came out to Utah for Jamie's wedding. It was a great day and we are all happy to have Tim in our family!
I was a slacker on the picture taking, I just got this one of them cutting the cake. They were way too nice!

My niece, Kate, and Josh's little brother, Matthew flirted up a storm and were quite fun to watch. They chased each other around in circles, and Matthew was even showing off his dance moves and pushups for her. For days after Kate would sigh and say, "Matthew loves me."

Then we went down to California for the open house.
We got to go to an Angels game, and it was floppy hat night. I get a good laugh every time Josh puts his on- not quite his look!

Swimming with the Yoders.
What a good looking couple!

At the open house. My parents have done a great job on the yard, if you look you can kind of see the waterfall in the back.

Josh thought it would be funny to take a picture of the preggo lady in front of the food. In my defense, I was just sneaking food to the fridge so my fam could have leftovers!
It has been a fun few weeks and great being with family, but we are glad to be back home and into a routine again!
