Still Alive!
We are still alive just super busy. We got the keys to our new place on Friday and have been working non stop to get it ready for us to move in two weeks. Pictures will come soon (probably when we are done and actually have a kitchen). I have been painting non stop and my arms are getting super buff! The theme of our renovation is that a little bit of paint, a new toilet seat and some cleaning can change the whole look of a place. Also, I think we also interupted a nice little insect party going on in the vines we tore out.... the ground was moving when we tore it out. I about passed out. Anyway, stay tuned. Its coming together quite nicely and I finally got my red wall!

Is it true?!?!
I think our tv is finally dying! We have been debating on getting a new tv for the past year now but our families kept giving us hand me down tv's. Well with no more hand me downs and with the picture going in and out today I think we might actually get to buy a brand new one.....At least we have an excuse right.

Running out of food!
We are slowely running out of food. I haven't been grocery shopping in over a month (We have bought the necessities of course) because we are trying to save as much money as we can before we close and we don't want to have a lot of groceries to take over to our new place. We plan on buying all new groceries when we move in. Well its working but its coming down to creating meals with what we have available... very interesting to say the least. Good thing we close tomorrow. Trust me I will be grocery shopping first thing Tuesday morning! Look out Costco here I come!
I feel blessed.
Tonight me and AE took a motorcycle drive up East Canyon by our apartment. As I posted in the previous post I LOVE the fall season. As we were taking the drive I was taking in all the amazing colors I was seeing from the changing leaves. It was breathtaking. I then started to think about how blessed I am to live in a state that even has fall or four seasons for that matter. I may complain about the cold in the winter and the heat in the summer but when it comes down to it I don't think I would have it any other way. I was greatful to sit there and have a relaxing drive with the person I love most in this world and think about how much our heavenly father loves us and he shows it in simple things such as changing seasons. Sorry for all the sappyness but I had kind of an epiphany. When it comes time for us to have kids I am going to miss days like this deeply but I still have a few more years to enjoy our alone time. Take time this fall to notice the beauty that this season holds! Take a drive up a canyon, any canyon, you won't regret it! ( My personal favorite is Logan Canyon.

GGGRRRRR!!!
So I was trying to delete my old template today and it deleted EVERYTHING! Not only my list of other blogs but also all my posts. So here is my first post again. Luckily I had a good memory of some of the blogs so I got most of them back. I will post again when something more exciting happens.
