Black Friday!

So Thanksgiving was wonderful! We went down with my family to my Aunt Carrie and Uncle Clint's house in Highland, played loads of games, went shooting, and ate more food then ever!
Then this morning we went shopping!!! We didn't stand in any bad lines, hit up Wal Mart, Smith's Market place, the Sport's man, Inkly's, Al's, and Best Buy, and got EVERYTHING that we wanted at ALL of them! Talk about having Lady Lucky on our side. All those people sleeping over outside of best buy for their killer deals on video cameras and photo cameras, we walked right in, grabbed the last one and walked right out, same with all the other places we went to. Went to the SPortsman to get $80 goggles for $18 walked in, asked someone where the googles where, she said "there out, but you can have this one"!! I have gone every year since I was 11 or 12 to Black Friday shopping and never was it as easy as today :o) I hope everyone had as awesome of luck as we did.

So since we went to the Howl and they took our picture we have been trying to find it... and we finally did... so i thought i should share it with all of you, because its a pretty sweet photo!!
Cute huh!!!

The Pumpkin Walk

I forgot to put these in, we went to the Pumpkin Walk with 3 other couples in the ward. It was such a good time! I love going! Its one of my favorite things from Fall!!!


And a shot of Cam and Harry The Boy who Lived!!

Halloween and the Howl

This Halloween Cam and I decided to try out the Howl. We dressed up as Mario and Luigi!


So we ran into this guy who dressed up as Rufio, Doesn't he look exactly like him!! We thought it was pretty sweet!!

Yes that's right cam fit an entire Cupcake in his mouth! This was to avoid getting it all over his mustache :o)

This is a shot of the main dancing area... as you can see there were TONS of people, the record said that there was over 6,500 people there this year! WOW! It's hard to tell, but the whole place is PACKED all the way over to where you can see the light. Lets just say everyone was super sweaty.

But besides the dance stuff there was a performance thing that we went to where they had the M Monkees Dance Crew from the MTV show 'America's Best Dance Crew' and I can honestly say that I have never seen anyone dance like those guys can!! Here is a little clip of their show it totally blew my mind!!

They also had a Mind-Reader guy come, and honestly I can't even explain to you how awesome he was, seriously blew our minds!
Well needless to say we loved it and had a REALLY good time. It was totally worth the money!

Corn Maze

So Cam and I went on a double with the Jordan's to the Green Canyon Corn-maze on Friday. It is so much fun! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good time. We went when it was haunted and were truly frightened several times. I fell in the corn twice trying to run away from monsters, and both times Cam was running so fast in the opposite direction he didn't even think to look back and see if I was being killed by the scary thing! This same senario happened at least 5 times that night as we tried to make it through the maze... But I only landed on my butt twice, but Cam ditched me every time!!
Needless to say from this fun adventure I learned that when it comes to fight of flight I am not the only one in this marriage who takes as fast of a flight out as possible!

Richard's Mission

Here are some pictures from Richard's mission!!
Him and his Companion

The path that they take

He said they kids flock to him. They all run up to him and poke him saying "Bye Bye Mazoungos" Which is what they call white people there.

His Baptisms... with 2 more this week

UEA Break

Cam went down and Hiked the Narrows during UEA Break with my dad and brothers. It was a 16 mile hike through a river that half the time was up around their waist or chest. Cam said he had a totally blast!! But the next day every muscle in his body was sore and he had HUGE blisters on the back of each of his heels. Here are his pictures from his big adventure!!

These pictures are so fun! It really makes me want to go next time!! Good Times!!

I gone a little Bead Crazy!

OK so you know how it seems like everyone has been making the bead watch bands... well when I came back from Alaska my mom was into it full blown... and I have to admit I have been sucked into it. Here are some picks of the ones I have done so far...
These ones are my Black and Grey, Halloween, and one I made from my great grandma's bracelet.

This is a bad picture, but its chuncky silver, multi-colored, and my Barbie one :o)

I love my wood one, teal, my pearl one for church, and brown/lime green/and silver

My blue/white, and orange/blue/green ones are super "wimsicle" I love it! Then the Last one is my Aggie Bracelet, I still want to go up on Campus and see if I can find some Aggie Charms to put on it.

Well, that is what I have been doing when I really should be studying the last two months :o)

USU Homecomeing!

Cam and I went to the USU Homecoming dance. The theme was to dress as your "Favorite Era" So after a trip to the DI (and Tamera Rawlings house for my sweet outfit) we decided on the 70's
Cam rocked the whole "John Travolta Look" and I wore this awesomely sick one piece lime green jumper with rockin bell-bottoms.

Sweet Hoodie!

We hung out with Braden and his group a little. It was so much fun to see their cute 20's outfits and play with them. What a fun gang!

Holla!

The John Travolta

This is Cam and I's second time comeing to the homecoming dance. It is seriousely so much fun to get out of our normal routine and do somthing crazy fun. The dress up thing was really a fun idea (though lots of people were lame and just dressed normal and said their favorite era was now...cop-outs!)
Good times.... Sweet Oldies!!!
