Halloween

Happy Halloween to all! We had a great Halloween! We carved pumpkins, hung out with our Family and made some wonderful cookies! We went down Harrison Blvd. on Saturday night and saw Thriller the movie and there were some wonderful dancers perform the Thriller dance. They did such a great job! Then we went down town and watched people and boy was that a GOOD place to do so! We dressed up as Boise State Fans....considering there was a Home game on Saturday!

Here are the good cookies that I decided to make with candy corn Hersey kisses!! YUM-O!!

Its OFFICIAL...

Brent got offered a job from W.W. Clyde (the company that he worked for over the summer in Utah)! We are so very thankful to have a job waiting for us while Brent is finishing school! Mean while, I'm working with Home Federal Bank! Its great to be back and I'm at a different location so its been great meeting new people!

Labor Day Weekend

This last Labor Day Weekend we had a chance to go to Sun Valley to spend time with Dad and Lupe then headed to Burley to spend time with our other families! We went to Sun Valley on Thursday night because we don't have cable here in Boise and that was the night Boise St. was playing the Oregon Ducks! VERY IMPORTANT!!! (Let alone, Brent doesn't have school on Fridays either) So, my dad and Lupe met us up there and we had a Nacho buffet and we stuffed ourselves and watched the game! The next day we hung around checked out some yard sales and went to the CHOCOLATE FACTORY and got this delicious apple!! YUM-O whats a trip to Sun Valley without going to the Chocolate Factory?!
To say the least we got spoiled up there too! Lupe fixed us some of her famous ribs that fell off the bone and melted in your mouth!! Now that we are back from vacations we are working out to pay the price!!

We went to the car show when we were there! Brent was in HEAVEN! There were a lot of older GTO so he took a few pictures.
We then headed to Burley on Saturday night and spent the rest of the time with Brent's family! It was fun having a fire pit and cooking hot dogs and marshmallows, hanging out with Scott and the fam, playing games and racing out to church!!;)

New Apt!

Here are a few pictures of our apt that we are currently living in for a few months! It was a bit scary at first but day by day its starting to feel like home. We have super nice neighbors and we are so excited about that!!

Here is our spacious kitchen!

Here is our lovely living room with a wonderful fireplace!

My favorite is our bedroom!

Back in Boise!

We are in Boise and we have survived our first week and a half so far! Things are going great. First, we got to our apt. and our friends came to help us move in! Thank you!! We live in a great neighbor hood. Everyone is so friendly! Brent is taking about 12 credits his last semester of school! So, to say the least, he has some free time on his hands. Here are a few things we have been doing since we have some free time together......

Here is our wonderful swimming pool!! We love to go and hang out there, catch some Vitamin D!

This is our favorite TV show, Scurbs. Season 8 just came out last Tuesday and to say the least we finished it on Sunday! Haha

I will be starting work sometime at the bank. They have been rearranging people so I have been lucky to hang out with Brent. I have also been taking advantage hanging out with our friends and going out to lunch with them and doing things that we usually don't get to do! We are definitely LIVING it UP while this is our last and final semester at school!!!! We currently don't have the Internet so I come with Brent to school every now and then and will update our blog. I took pictures of our place but the computer doesn't have a slot of my card. So that will just have to wait!

Yes, it is time again to move!! We have enjoyed our stay in Utah and we hope to maybe come back when Brent graduates in December! But on the other hand, we are really excited to go back to our great friends in Boise! We are leaving Utah on Friday and making a pit stop in Rupert to pick up some furniture and we will continue our journy on Saturday morning!
Boise here we come!!!

My little Monkeys!

We just ABSOLUTELY LOVE our little nieces and nephew!!! They always make us laugh. This last weekend we had a chance to go to Idaho to meet up with my brothers (my one bro and his fam came from Washington). We had such a great time and I just can't believe how fast the little Monkeys grow!

Here is Ava, I was making cookies and she got the bar stool and came over to help me, I stepped away for a second to get some flour and I came back and she was smacking her lips saying, " Mmmm Carrie this is really good, I have to test it to make sure its good!" Haha when I was finished I gave her the beaters and she had it all over her face as you can tell! She is just the cutest thing ever and she is always saying something to make you laugh!!!

Then we got Brogan, AKA Iron man or Spider man, just depends on the day! After this weekend we realized that Brogan and Brent have a lot in common. It must be that they share the same birthday Feb 2nd aka Ground Hogs Day! They were always both in their jammies, picking out the BLUE M&M's and Brogan wanted to have hair like Brents! Haha

Last, but not least, little Vy Jai! She is getting so big and she is getting out of the little stage and wants to play with hair and paint toes and all that fun girl stuff! So I wanted to make her feel special so I did her hair and we painted our toes the same color!! Oh yes, we can't forget the Barbies, we had lots of Barbie playing time also! Cartoon time is always a must, especially when they are with their Auntie Caroline!

I just love my little Monkeys and can't wait for our new little nephew to arrive so I can spoil him too!!
