December Baby

December was a great month!! Nathan and I mastered the art of Gingerbread house making! My artist abilities combined with his creativeness and architectural abilities made out for some great houses! Too bad they are centers for ants, or Gingerbread men, because I would live in them!!

The first one we built was with his family:

Halloween!

Halloween is always such a fun time, why you may ask? Because you get to dress up and eat lots of free candy!!  We had a work party, which was themed. Each department did a different theme. Our department did Toy story, and a few other things and it was awesome!!

Michell, Keahi, Nat, Kim, Brittney
 And now the toy story gang:


This was actually Marketing, but they are cool too!

Brandon made, yes made, from scratch this Buzz Lightyear costume, complete with buttons on the front that actually say the buzz lightyear stuff!! It was amazing!!

 We invited our families to bring in the kids for some desk to desk trick-or-treating.  My mom and Sam brough Abbey and Chloe:




After the work festivities, Nathan and I headed up to Ogden to Jason and Jemay's house for dinner and some pumpkin carving!

Jemay made a very yummy meatloaf, we carved our pumpkins and attmepted to watch a scary movie.







Nathan wanted to make sure our Jack-o-lantern stayed safe on the way home, so he made sure it wore it's seatbelt! Oh I love him!



The next day was Halloween!! Of course, Nathan and I dressed up and went trick-or-treating with Austin, his little brother.  We dressed up as a lawn flamingo and a garden gnome. (Lawn accessories!!) You see, the Gardne Gnome fell in love with the Lawn Flamingo and it was magical! Or as Nathan put it, The Garden Gnomes are there to make the Lawn Flamingos happy!



I love Halloween!!

October-Fest

One thing I love about Nathan is that he pays attention to the beauty that is the earth.  He is always taking me to places with great views and scenery.  So, for one of our dates, he took me up the canyon to see the fall leaves changing.  We went up American Fork Canyon. And it was so pretty!!! Here are some photos of the event:
