3. The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (December 10)- I love the first two and although Fox is developing this one and not Disney, I am still excited. 2. Iron Man 2 (May 7)- Iron Man surprised me two years ago and this one looks just as good. I hope it lives up to expectations.

1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1) (November 19)- I was wrong this year to put The Half Blood Prince and number two or three. It was the best movie of this year. I am hoping that this one lives up to the hype.

Still Alive!

Just wanted to let you know that we are still here. I have been terrible at blogging lately, but...we really haven't done a lot to blog about. So, here is a fun picture from our first apartment. We had these great saloon doors and well...I will just let the picture explain it:)So cute!

Cents of Style

Don't forget about the "Cents of Style" party tomorrow night. Tuesday, October 27 between 7-9pm. Everyone's invited and I would love to see you there. The other night I went with a friend to a "Cents of Style" party. I hadn't ever heard of this before, but the invite seemed interesting. Well...I never, ever, buy anything at parties like this and I would never even think of being the host. Needless to say when I left the party, I had a really cute bracelet and a date to host a party:) The thing is, the lady who does it didn't even try to convince me or anything. She just said if I wanted to I could. I decided to do the party because I feel like they have a lot of cute items and none of it is over $20. Most of it is under $15. I thought that was really great. They have, shoes, belts, bags, jewelry, hats etc. I am doing the party on October 27 from 7-9pm at my apartment. Anyone and everyone is invited. I would love to see you all there and will post a reminder when the day gets closer. Here is a website if anyone wants to check out some of there products. www.mycentsofstyle.com

The Pumpkin Patch and a Few New Recipes!

A couple of weeks ago, we ventured out to Paradise for our annual visit to the pumpkin patch. We love going to the pumpkin patch each year. There are so many pumpkins to choose from, we had to get more than a couple:)

Here is Patrick acting like a little kid pulling a wagon!

The Paradise Pumpkin Patch is great because they even provide wagons and snippers to use. I love to cook, and am always up for trying a new recipe. Here are a few I have tried recently. Pizza twist My mom got me the Taste of Home Halloween magazine. There are so many fun treats and dinners. I love Halloween and have really been in the mood to make festive foods:)

Pork Tenderloin Mummy

We had mexican night with some friends and I was in charge of desserts. I love the Tres leches from Cafe Rio so went in search of a recipe. It was kind of intimadating, but turned out good.

Back To School

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy first day of school!

Kindergarten First Day of School First of of School 2009

Laughing All Day Long

Yesterday we had quite the adventure in Bear Lake. We had planned a trip to go to a play at the Pickleville Playhouse, The Hanging of El Bandito, with the Hales, and decided to make a day of it. We started out with high hopes of venturing into Minnetonka Cave, but after following the directions of mapquest, we ended up in the middle of nowhere on some dirt road. Thanks to Steve's GPS, we ended up back on the right road, but an hour behind schedule. By the time we made it up to Minnetonka Cave, the tours had been all booked up until 4 o'clock. We were forced to abandon our plans, but still had 5 hours before the play, and needed something to fill the time. Lacey remembered hearing that the Bear Lake county fair was going on in Montpelier, ID, and we were once again on our way for another adventure. Before we made it to the fair we stopped at a park and ate our lunches. Steve had this great idea to put only the peanut butter on the bread, so the jam wouldn't make the break soggy. It is a great idea, but the bread stuck together really bad. This is Steve working his magic at getting the bread apart!The park we were at was pretty cool it had great swings. There weren't enough swings for all of us to ride forward. Patrick's face is perfect for riding the backwards horse! The fair was great. We walked around the shops, watched a hypnotist for a while, and then as we started to watch a band, Steve realized it was his cousins who he hadn't seen for quite a while. Fair food is always the best. These are mozzarella sticks(mozzarella in corn dog batter) Yummy! Patrick is so animated with picture taking. I love all the faces he makes:)Next to the band, there was a mechanical bull that we kept watching people ride. I have always wanted to ride one, but never had the guts. Patrick and Steve talked Lacey and I into riding the mechanical bull. It was a lot of fun!Here is a video of me ridin' the bull. The camera battery ran out just before I fell off. I can't seem to make it go the right way, if anyone knows how, I would love to learn.

Patrick and I had never been to a play at the Pickleville Playhouse before and didn't really know what to expect for the play. The Hanging of El Bandito was a melodrama which meant that the audience would boo when the bad guy (El Bandito) would come on stage and cheer for the good guy. It was so much fun! We hadn't laughed that hard in a long time. The guy who played El Bandito was so funny and did a great job of throwing in a ton of Nacho Libre quotes which is a favorite movie of ours. Everyone knows that when you go the Bear Lake it is a necessity to stop and get a burger and raspberry shake. So Good!We had a really great day, I haven't laughed so much in one day for a long time. Thanks so much for the invite Steve and Lacey, we had a great time!

Random Picture

Right after Patrick and I got married, we lived in an apartment where we had lots of bugs, especially spiders. I HATE spiders! I would always call for Patrick if there was ever a bug/spider, so he could kill it(I still do this and probably always will.) We had a few months were we were going to school and working at opposite times. I came home one day and saw this huge black thing under the table-kind of in a corner. I wasn't going to get close to it, and Patrick wasn't home, so I sent him a text on my way out telling him the exact location so he could kill it when he got home. He usually came home about 20 minutes after I left, then he would leave before I got home to go to work. When I got home from work this is what I found...In case you can't read it, it says, "I caught the bug for you! I love you!" It wasn't even a bug, but a marble from a game we have:) It still makes me laugh whenever I think about it or see this picture. So funny.

Girls Night

I have been wanting to get a pedicure for a long time, but just never get around to it. Erin got a pedicure(gift card) for Mother's day, so we decided it would be a fun night out. We went to Leilani Salon & Spa. It is a new spa that just opened in May or June. It was a lot of fun and felt great. We decided to get the pedicure of the month...a Margarita Pedicure! They said they are going to be doing a different kind of pedicure each month. They weren't sure which one is next month, but some ideas are cinnamon apple, or chocolate rum. Sounds good to me! With the Margarita Pedicure, they actually put a shot of Tequila in the water. Evidently alcohol is a great exfoliant for your skin-who new.They put lime juice on your toenails-I learned this actually takes out the yellow color from nail polish, that was cool. Hot coconut oil was brushed on our feet and legs and steamed towels wrapped around. I thought this looked funny, so had to get a picture.Here is the finished product, you can't tell, but there are cute flowers painted on our big toes. I thought it was so cute when we got back to Erin's, Johnny looked at Erin's toes and said, "So pretty mommy" while pointing at the flowers. So cute!If anybody wants to go, I would recommend it. Shauna Reeder is who did my pedicure, I would definitely recommend her and if you mention my name, I get $5 towards my next one:)

My Husband Cracks Me Up!

I know I haven't posted anything recently, but here is a quick funny picture I just had to post. There will probably be many more of these, I have so many random, but really fun pictures:) The other day I came in from the kitchen to find this.

Shortly after, I found this!I love being married, my husband can always make me laugh and I love that!

Harry Potter Comes Wednesday!!!

According to almost every review on rotten tomatoes this is the best film in the series so far and the funniest. This just adds to the excitement!
