A great resource to find the CHEAPEST gas in town: http://utahgasprices.com/. This same website gives some interesting facts regarding GAS PRICES: Today- $1.669, Yesterday- $1.696, One Week Ago- $1.816, One Month Ago- $2.738, One Year Ago- $3.074. I don't know or care what's going on with gas prices but all I know is that I love it! My commute is 90 miles round trip so this gas drop is fantastic! I remember in 1995 driving around in my crappy ol' Dodge Colt and gas was less than a dollar a gallon. Do you think gas prices will continue to drop and could possibly go below a dollar?? leave a comment...

My Personal Review of Twilight Movie

Ok, so I'm not some crazy Twilight fanatic like those people at the Theater selling T-shirts and "Vampire makeovers" but I do enjoy a forbidden romance. I saw the movie tonight and I have to say that the movie followed the book fairly well but it felt rushed. It was pages and pages of text squished into 120 minutes of goodness. I really enjoyed it! Now, that's not to say that it was my favorite movie of all time but it did make for some good ol' entertainment. One other criticism: Edward's hair was a little weird and his eye brows needed a wax but he does have a sexy jawline and nice eyes. If you liked the books, you should go see the movie.

Backyard Leaves

I am so thankful to have Logan in my life. Its' amazing to think that he's only been with us for 19 months, but I can't imagine life without him. There was a time that I thought I would never have the opportunity to be a mom. I'm so blessed...

Reclaiming My Old Self

A little kept secret... Once apon a time, (a.k.a., before my mission) I was a very good photographer. I took classes in High School, worked at my aunt and uncle's photo studio/lab from 1996-2000 and I even had a two-year photography scholarship at Snow College, yippee. I understood everything about f-stops, white balance, shutter speeds, aperture, contrast, depth of field, film speed, etc. Today I am a really good photo critic but not a great photographer. When I came home from my mission I had forgotten all about my favorite hobby because I had a new hobby: Jared. I've had a burning desire to get back into photography for the last eight years but I never have the money or time. Well, I'm excited to announce that I have purchased my very first Digital SLR camera (Nikon D40). It'll be a good camera to start with and I'm sure I'll sell it and upgrade in a few years. The cool thing is with all the photo editing software, I can see why almost ANYONE can be a good photographer. There is hope for me yet. :)

Last Saturday we went to Evanston to ride some ATVs.
Eating rocks + playing in dirt + stick fighting = ALL BOY

Sad News... Logan decided to give my cell phone a bath which caused its untimely death sniff sniff. I will buy a new cell phone someday. If you need to get a hold of me, call my house number. If you don't know my house number call my cell phone and listen to my voice mail.

Halloween!

We are very fortunate to get all the "hand-me-downs" from my big sis and since her son, Tommy, was Yoda for Halloween three years ago, Logan was Yoda this year. So in three years Logan will get to be Obi One Kenobi.
