Thankful



I have so much to be thankful for in my life! And even though I try to express my thanks everyday, I know I don't do it as often as I should. So here comes the cheese...



*I am thankful for my wonderful, fabulous husband. I can't imagine my life without him and I am so thankful he asked me to be his wife.



*I am thankful for our home we have! We are so blessed to be able to have a little home to start our lives together.



*I am thankful for my amazing mothers. My mom has done more for me than anyone could have done. She took care of me every waking minute when I was in my motorcycle accident.

Even though I would never want to go through that again... my mom made it bearable and was there for me no matter what. I love you mom.



*I am thankful for my siblings and nieces.I seriously have THE best siblings and nieces in the whole world.



*I am thankful for my entire family. I am super close with my aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents. And I appreciate that fact.



*I am thankful for my awesome and fun friends. I know I don't see my friends anywhere near as much as I used to or want to! But I love and appreciate everything you have

all done for me and for just being awesome people!



*I am thankful for my great job and the opportunities it has brought me and the experience. My boss is a pretty cool guy too.



I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I hope we can all remember the blessings in our lives and remember to show our gratitude :)

This is Halloween...

I love Halloween!! And this year my husbands band decided to start up an old tradition by rocking out for family, friends and the neighborhood. One of the moms made homemade doughnuts and I brought the hot cocoa! We actually had quite the crowd and all had a blast partying to the boys' music. They did a fabulous job and it was fun to see and hear my man rockin out again.


Here is a group photo. My family all came and we completely appreciate the support!







As you can see, Scott and I dressed up. Not sure if any of you even know who Dexter is, but that is who Scott dressed up as. (Dexter is a tv series on Showtime. Awesome show.) He looked PERFECT!

And I dressed up as Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas.

I didn't want to buy the generic Sally costume... so I found this 'patchwork' dress at Target and bought the other pieces all over the place. I thought it turned out pretty good! I think I scared my adorable nieces tho and I felt terrible for it. They of course were dressed up all cute. First we have Tinkerbell:
Then Aurora(?)/Sleeping Beauty:

And lets not forget about Snow White:

And a little Bumblebee!:



Aren't they cutest girls you have EVER seen?! Love them. Hope everyone had a good Holiday!

Pirate Island

Every year we celebrate our "Family Anniversary" by going out to dinner. This year we decided to try out a new restaurant. (Normally we go to Teppanyaki) We wanted to see how Pirate Island would be. I had no idea it was going to be like Chuck E Cheese. But the pizza was actually really good! And I really liked all the decor.


The whole fam damily


If you want to try this place out- my sister and I have a favorite pizza. Cinnamon spiced pineapple with chicken. TRY IT!
