Just me and my grandma man

So Jory, being a fourth grade teacher and all- needed to have the best costume in school of course, and he needed to top his last years costume.

Last year:

Pretty good right? P.S. - he even put his own eyeliner on that day, GO JOR!

This year-

now really, you've got to prepare yourself before you scroll down. I had to have a couple days and nights to prepare myself for this one, so I completely understand if you need a little bit to adjust.

When he first found it at Savers I about died, and really thought it was just too weird, but he was pretty persistent on getting it... so I gave in. HA! What do you think?

Here's a video of him... sorry it's sideways. Ha, oh life with Jor is never dull.



Carved some pumpkins...



AND Jay wins the prize for best carved pumpkin in Sargent history!

We may or may not have finished up the night with a little dance party in the kitchen...

Saturday turned out great, and it was so much fun waiting for the doorbell to ring to see the cute little trick or treaters and to pass out candy for the first time in our new HOUSE! Me and Jor couldn't get over how funny the kids were when they would take the candy and yell out HAPPY HALLOWEEN!, I keep thinking of this little girl who couldn't barely pronounce the the words but she tried and her "Happy Halloween" was adorable.

We had a get together with Jenn and Mike the ALMOST wedded couple. They came over wearing their matching LEGIT costumes. ; )
We ate a lot, then all fell asleep watching a documentary on North Korea. It was a Happy Halloween.

Just call me Cesar

I love the weekends! A little TOO much I think. But, I'm sure everyone feels like that. They always go by too quickly and you never get enough done- or enough rest. But they are oh so fabulous.

This weekend started with me telling myself and slightly believing that I was a professional dog woman, so I picked up my parents large and in charge giant schnauzer Sasha. My mom is out of the country and I was dubbed to wash her. There is this AWESOME doggie wash next to our favorite car wash that I have just been dying to try out, and it just so happened to work out perfectly that I needed to wash the dog! So I stuck Sasha in the back of our car and drove away. 25 minutes later, with every window in my car is licked down and snotted on we were ready to go. It was an adventure and yes she did her famous beethoven shake when she was sopping wet- all over me. : ) I LOVE ANIMALS!

Finished product!
Cesar Millan right?

Since the weather feels like Halloween, and the houses look like Halloween- we thought it would be appropriate to spice up our lives and do something halloweeny... Jor and Scotty and I went on the oh-so-exciting 17 1/2 minute Halloween Cruise. It was cold and over crowded, but it was cute and we had a good time. They had the river decorated with carved pumpkins and orange lights with skulls and creepy things all over... It was a peaceful float down the river and back again... when the boat stopped and Scotty yelled out, "Was that it?" That's sort of what I was thinking... but it was fun!
Our little thug miiista, he loves that pose...


The rest of the weekend involved a VERY proud wifey and a excited and sore husby who got 4 touchdowns in his flag football game. A massage with the girls, FREE, mind you. Friday night lights (yes, I'm a little embarrassed to admit it), Pizza family get together, Gardner Village, and a first timer with caramel candy apples. Now, we're just vegging with Jack in our Pants.

Could a weekend get any better?

Yes, that is what I meant with Jack in our pants.

Wha?

We don't have a garage door opener. I find it incredibly inconvenient. I guess I should be greatful for the fact that we even have a garage- that fits both of our cars in it, (a little scary at times for Jory i'm sure- as I the crazy driver pull out trying not to scrape up his car or the other side of my car...) It is a little difficult for me to be completely honest. Any way. You always have to get out of the car to close the garage door.

Jory is the designated driver, while I am the designated door "closer and opener".

Yesterday, Jor pulls out of the garage, I follow, push are secret numbers and close the door. I get in the car and Jory asks me, " Were you trying to be a dinosaur?" I looked at him with a little bit of horror in my eyes because I know his "tones". The tones when he is joking and not joking- and this was a slightly joking, but seriously, were you trying to walk like a dinosaur tone.

I knew I should have been a dancer. I would have been able to avoid these awkward comments and situations about my ungracefullness.


P.S.
Is this not the cutest thing you've ever seen? It's Scotty, it's sideways and dark and yes I was the camera woman.. but every time I watch it, it puts a smile on my face.

"Faith in something greater than ourselves enables us to do what we have said we'll do, to press forward when we are tired or hurt or afraid, to keep going when the challenge seems overwhelming and the course is entirely uncertain."

Happy Breast Cancer Awareness Month. : )

Let us be grateful for our limbs... let us be grateful for the breaths we take... let us be grateful for our good health. Let us be positive.

Let's throw some rice

This weekend was great and I loved every second of it. I love all weekends though- even if all I do is sleep and maybe do a load of laundry, and I'll feel good about it, 'cause catching up on sleep is important right? I thoroughly believe that's true. : )

This weekend has been one I've been really looking forward too-Cha and Chris got MurrIED! It was so much fun to be a part of it. Everything turned out perfect. Seeing your best friend experience one of the most amazing things that you have ever experienced was so special and I'm so happy for them.

We got to the Provo temple early and walked around taking pictures. It was GORGEOUS! I didn't realize how beautiful the Provo temple grounds were, and right infront of the Mountains... ah I just love the U tahh.



Chris and Cherissa Briene

Oh wait, I mean Charisse breann


models!



This weekend we also went on a little outting to deer creek. It included a lantern, the 2ND challenger raft, (#1 RIP... number 1 may still be stuck on the provo river bridge post, when it was so sadly abandoned after it's first 3 minute voyage... ) we brought cookies and sandwhiches and blankets. Oh, and sandals with socks.


This was my favorite moment of the night.


We floated off into the night and took some pictures- which turned out to be hilarious because with our lil point n shoot you, especially in the dark, you couldn't tell where you were pointing the camera.
