October break

Our first time at the beach together, it only took us 6.5 years to get there.

Ah..the perks of being a teacher. I had all last week off work and took a trip with Josh, Reina and my mom to San Diego. We kept busy and had a blast. We went to the swap meet, I just love cheap shopping, BalBoa park, beach and Disneyland--what a fantastic week!

Disneyland was decorated with Halloween decor and so much fun, we even got free skeleton face paintings--except for Josh. Haunted Mansion was our favorite ride because they change the whole thing to the Nightmare before christmas theme. Unfortuneatly story book was closed :( but Small World open and they added some Disney Characters in it, adoreable! While at Disneyland we ran into Wes and Farnz which was also a nice little suprise!

They had some fun plant at Balboa Park, we loved the huge leaf plants

So we stumbled upon Octoberfest while in Cali.

This is us on the boardwalk watching a buffalo wing eating contest

Parachute!

The number one question I get when I tell people I am a P.E. is, " Do you do the parachute?" It seem to be everyone's favorite P.E. activity and it was mine too. So I just thought I would let everyone know that this week I'ver been doing parachute with my classes. When I tell my classes that they are doing parachute they start screaming and jumping up and down with excitement...not even exaggerating here. Who knew a parachute could be so magical!

A Few things I Love Right Now

1. Skippy Natural Peanut butter- I swear I eat a tablespoon of this daily, its so yummy. And the good news is it is healthier than regular peanut butter but there is no need to stir it. Way to go Skippy!

2. The Hunger Games Novels- I was so addicted I read both of them in one week. They are a great time, but I warn you that you may not be able to put them down once you get started. And then once you finish them you will have to wait for the 3rd to come out and I am already anxious.

3. The Story Book Ride at Disneyland- I am going to Disneyland in a few weeks and looking forward to this ride. I wonder why no one ever talks about it. It is so cute. They have all these mini villages where the princess live. Like a mini Cinderella Castle and mini trees--which by the way are real. How could you not love it. If you have never been on this ride you should really give it a chance.

4. Winter time- I am counting down the days until Ocotober because life during the fall/winter is so much fun! I love the holidays, the weather and the time off work. Oh yes its a the best!

5. Pita Jungle Restaurant- I have never ordered anything I didn't like. It's so yummy and when you eat you feel like you are eating something healthy. Warning: it can leave you with bad breath because of the onion and garlic in most of the food, but it is worth. Just bring some gum for after the meal.

6. Haagan Dazs- I had a milkshake from there a couple of weeks ago. It was my first time...and it was love at first drink. I serioulsy have not had anything more delectable. I haven't had another one since but I think about all the time. Indulge yourself and by one, it will be the yummmiest minutes of your life.

off to utah for Candice's Wedding

Last weekend the Miller family went back to our homeland--Utah--for my cousin's wedding. It was a pretty hectic weekend, but she looked so gorgeous and happy. Plus I had fun spending time with Devin ( which I don't get much time with him) and with my mom. The top picture is me as a bridemaid with my best friend/cousin Candice. You can't really tell in the picture but they built a false ceiling out of lights for the reception and it was so pretty!

I love the times I get to be with my big brother, it brings me back to our fun time when we were younger! Don't judge the picture to harshly, we were running on 4 hours of sleep and no breakfast and thats something Devin and I just don't do!

New Moon..getting anxious

So I saw a new preview for the New Moon movie and I seriously got butterflies in my stomach because I am so excited for it! Yes, I know I am a total nerd. The preview had more scenes with Jacob, so if you are a Jacob fan you should check it out. If you are an Edward fan then your lame. Just kidding...sort of.

Thank you Kirkland Home Store

The most fun thing about buying a house is I finally get to go shopping and pick out the decor--loves it! Went shopping with my mom and sister this weekend. When we went to Kirkland Home store it was love at first sight! Everything was on sale and that is my favorite, I am all about bargain shopping. I was able to buy a huge picture for our living room and one for the bathroom for 50% of the original price! I think I will be visiting that store weekly unitl I get the house...don't tell Josh :)
