BYU shower

My mom and sister's threw me a shower on Saturday that was so much fun!! It was a BYU themed shower, and they did such a great job putting it together. Again, we got some great things from everyone...
I just want to thank them for all the time and effort they put into this. From the invitations to the decorations, from the food and games to the party favors... it was so much fun! Also, I just want to say thanks for all of the support the past 3 months. I couldn't have done this without your encouragement and love! I LOVE YOU!!!

Corn Maze

Friday night we went with my sister's to the corn maze at Thanksgiving Point. There were a lot of different things going on besides the corn maze, like tether ball, go karts, a blow up "haunted house" thing, and even little pig races that were actually more fun than the actual maze!! We had a good time... and we only paid 93 cents to get in! Who can beat that?!

A couple of baby showers!

On Wednesday my work threw me a baby shower at the Olive Garden. We had a really good time. The food was good, and of course, I got some really great stuff for Zack... a little drum set was included in that!! So thanks to Courtney for making the invites and making this happen! I had a great time.

Then on Saturday, my sister-in-law's did a baby shower. We had an awesome turnout!! Almost 40 people came... granted, I didn't know most of them since it was all of my inlaw's friend's, but hey, it was still a lot of fun. So again, thanks to all of them for such a cute set up and for all the work that was put into it!
I would say we are just about ready for Zack to come home now!!!

Family Time

Saturday Jared and I went to the BYU/UCLA game. WOW! That was a fun time to see BYU completely blow UCLA out of the water... 59-0!! Good times...
Then, later that night we went with my family (minus Beck, who was at Homecoming!) to the mountains for a picnic. We made foil dinners, did a carmel apple crisp in the dutch oven, and played games. It was cold (OK, if we had planned a little better, it wouldn't have been so bad!), and it got dark really fast, but we had such a good time getting away for a few hours. Here are some pics from the day...

Good ol' days!

This is how I used to spend a lot of my days when I was growing up... jumping on the trampoline! My sister's and I, friend's and I, my mom and I, and even just by myself... hours were spent there. We would play games like add on, gymnastics (especially loved pretending to be on the balance beam!), dodge ball, and many more. We would practice our cheerleading/dance moves there, put the sprinklers underneath, and one of our favorites was sleeping out on the trampoline!
On Sunday, I climbed up on the trampoline again. It has been a while since I have done that, and it felt great!
Of course, I had to practice all the tricks I learned while on there, and sure enough, I can still do them!!
