The Living Aquarium

Me and the fam (and Colton's friend Dalton) went and explored Salt Lake a little bit. We went to the living aquarium and saw some awesome sea creatures! The place was a little stinky, but still
pretty cool. I'll have to remember to take my kids there someday!

We touched some slimy sting rays! Its kinda scary to think about the fact that one of these seemingly peacful things killed dear old Steve Irwin. :(



I found Nemo!!


Just a bunch of cool creatures..starfish, tiny octopus thingy, coral, and eel that has cow spots, a spiky fish...



We also got to touch some other smaller little things.


A baby Seahorse!!!! CUTE!!!!!


This Lobster is over 100yrs old. Sick.


These guys were probably the coolest...they had 3 different types of jellyfish: the first ones glowed in the dark almost, the second ones are some pretty big orange ones, and the last ones are upside down ones! Weird!






Ugly fish that was seriously the side of my little sister...well almost haha


They had pumpkins and Halloween decorations in all of the aquariums. So festive!


Frogs are my favorite animal, I dont know why. They are kinda ugly. But this little guy was smiling at me so I had to get a picture.


This fish had the ugliest lips!


Colton and Dalton in the KIDS play area...

HaLlOwEeN PaRtY!

So last year, my roommates and I were KILLER party throwers. We decided that its been a while and that Halloween would be a fun time to have another one. Well...it was fun, just a little under-attended! Here are some of the highlights:
1) I am officially pretty darn good at fake scar making for a first timer!! I could have done a lot better if I'd ACTUALLY beaten her...but that would totally throw the party off I think.


2) We had the most incredible food ever. Seriously people you missed out. Kari and I slaved all day over these cute little treats...well mostly Kari but the Homemade Rootbeer and Homemade Oreo Cookies were all mine :)

3) I was 'Poison Ivy' from Batman! This party was a costume party but only from the neck up...but i totally had green tights on underneath!! Alex was a gangster and Kari was...i dont know but she was beautiful :D My eyelashes were freakin huge. I could barely hold my head up!



4) We had DJ Kurri in da house and all had so much fun dancing!


5) Some random guy from Kari and Alex's ward came and blew up balloon animals for us?? Yeah not sure about that one...


6) We had hot male dancers!! The highlight was probably watching them dance to "Lip Gloss" by Little Mama(?)..anyways they were hilarious. And total cheaters at "Murderer in the Dark."

Cutest Baby Ever!

My cousin, Alesha, has the CUTEST baby every!!
Kiyana is almost 1 and is more entertaining that and TV show. She makes a 'stuffy nose' face and does fake little sniffles, she makes horse hoof nosies, does a "boo woo" (dog) noise, sticks out her tongue, and even 'winks' at you. She even took her first step yesterday!!She made friends with all of our little plastic pumpkins :) she gave them hugs and kisses all night long!

Thriller!

My mom and I went to Thriller on Saturday at Kingsbury Hall. It was not what I expected, but SO AWESOME! They had amazing dancers and hilarious performers. Some of my favorites were a silent, "Romeo and Juliet" type love story between Frankenstein and his bride. There were also two performances tributed to Lorena Bobbit, the angry, man-hating woman who took things into her own hands... ;) HILARIOUS!! I definately recommend seeing it!

My mom and I killing time during the intermission :)


After the show, all of the zombies came outside and haunted the building and the front entrance. They really played their characters well, I wouldn't have been able to keep a strait face haha!


Me and one of the zombies... (I'm the one on the left, er... right, wait I cant tell?)

BYU Homecoming Game!

The game was SO COLD but SO FUN! And of course our cougars won! Could we expect anything less? I mean lets be honest..

Beth and I got CoUgAr tAiLs! (They are like 1 1/2 feet of maple donut basically.) We talked about sharing one...but we were a little hungry.

Apparently Cameron hates pictures haha

Um.. I dont really know how to explain this.

We're so cute!!

Beth gave Cam a DumDum sucker and it broke part of his tooth off. Memories! HaHa!

The First Pumpkin Carve of the Season

Cameron made me a wonderful dinner for my 'birthday eve' and while it was cooking, we carved Harold. He's probably the cutest pumpkin that you'll ever see. Except he looks a little possessed in these pictures?..

Cameron and Harold


Harold and I...I'm not sure why I'm petting him.


Safety First!! We even made sure that our little punkin was safe on the ride home.

Miss Utah Outstanding Teen Pageant

I went to the Miss Utah Outstanding Teen pageant last week to support American Fork's Outstanding Teen, Jessica Taylor. She is amazing. She is beautiful, confident, smart, sweet, and so genuine. She did so well at the pageant! Her talent was a dance to "Here I Am" from the musical Dirty Rotten Scoundrels...so fun!! She had the perfect energy for it. She also ROCKED the onstage interview...(that is seriously one of the HaRdEsT areas of competition!) Congrats Jess! You're amazing!
