Oh Christmas Tree!!!!

Our beautiful Christmas tree! We put it up the day after Thanksgiving, and lets just say-- it is already dead. Yep that's right, this thing is a fire hazard. The needles are crisp as a winter moring, but it still looks beautiful, and you wouldn't know it was dead unless you bumped into it (very poky)!

This is my Nick

This is what he pretty much does all day when he is at home, and am very grateful to have finals be over with!!!!! He wants to celebrate by going to barnes and noble and read comic books, and he will definitely deserve it!! Too bad he has to start back up in January though.

Happy Holidays!!!

Halloween Update

My pumpkin!!!!

Vicki and Jack

These were a few of my trick-or-treating visitors on halloween. What a cute little dragon Jack makes(not to be confused with a dinosaur--he is a dragon!!) So cute!

After trick-or-treating visitors came and went we went over to our friends Jeremy and Jen's party, It was awesome, they had rock band and delicious food!! Afterwards, we were able to go to Red Mango(my first time), which is quite tasty!!!!

Happy be-lated Halloween!!

Halloween Fun

Friday, we held our annual "Dinner in a pumpkin" party. It was loads of fun. But unfortunately I didn't even get a picture of the pumpkin-- dinner that is. We carved pumpkins, watched Van Helsing, and ate dinner with lots of good company.

This is the pumpkin Nick carved, I am waiting to carve mine closer to Halloween.

This WAS delicious!!!

Can you guess what we are? Smores!! Thanks for the idea Kimmy!!!

We had the Robots from Flight of the Chonchords show up!!

Some Scarecrows!!!

And some Sassy Pirates!!!

Last Game of the Season!!!

Team- H2O

So I have been playing on a women's soccer league in Salt Lake and this was our last game of the season. I have just been too shy to take pictures, I would even bring my camera to most games too, but never take any pictures. I declared to Nick that I needed pictures taken at my last game, because soccer has played a pretty big part of my weekends. Nick is so good to come to my games when he can! I love him for that!! Even in the 100 degree weather, or the rain, or the days when the sun is in your eyes the whole time!! I just Love him!

My biggest Fan.... all bundled up!!

This is our team members that played + 1 girl, so that made a total of 9 people, ya not fun to have only 9, but i think we did pretty well considering we lost a girl at half time and the other team had like 5 subs! We only lost by 2--- 3-1. Which is good considering our circumstances. Funny thing is we always have subs, oh well!!

Game over!!

Jen and Jeremy's Wedding!!!

So Jeremy and Jen were married on Sept. 20th for time and all eternity in the slc temple. It was a beautiful ceremony! We enjoyed all the wedding festivities!! Jeremy and Jen are very good friends of ours. Jeremy is one of Nick's best friends, and I knew him from the very first time we started dating and Jen is a sis-in-law to one of Nick's other best friend Derrick! Now Jeremy and Derrick are brothers! It was good to hang out with all of the gang again!!

The Cute Couple!!

Derrick, Nick, and Skylar!!

So I know the flash is in the mirror in the back ground, but the other picture we had taken was just not as good!

I Just Love MILK!!!!

So Yesterday I had to do some errands for work and while I was at the grocery store I saw that some milks were only $1.50, which is amazing. It was on reduced for quick sale because it expires on the 29th (next Monday, still way far away), what a bargain, and then I found one that expired on Oct. 2nd(this one must have been a mistake, but their loss, my gain). So I bought them and put them in the refrigerator at work. I was so happy I even called to tell Nick about it. I go grocery shopping every Monday, so this was great!! But when I got to the grocery store I realized I had forgotten the milks, I was so bummed, because we were out of milk and I needed some for the dinner I was making. So I thought that it wouldn't be worth the gas and time to go back and get it so I decided to just get another gallon while I was at the store (which was only $2 which is such a great deal these days). So now I supposedly have 3 milks, and kind of worried that that would be too much, but no fear, because, we pretty much drank a gallon in one day!!! Just so you know--We started drinking the other milk because it would expire next! I just love milk!!!!

Jack's 2nd Birthday!!!

So I would have posted this yesterday, but after I got all the videos downloaded, and pictures ready, I accidently erased it before I posted it, I was so mad.

Anyway, Jack's birthday was at the beginning of sept. Nick and I, My parents, Jenni, Kimmy, and Karen all attended the festivities! It was a good time. Jack is starting to talk more and is just so cute!!

Opening Presents!!!!

Playing with his truck!!

Yes, we attended the party!!
