The Memphis Belle

Last night Josh rented the "Memphis Belle."  I was a little worried at first because I thought it was going to be sad.  Josh assured me that all would be ok.  So with his reassurance we began to watch.  This story was amazing.  I couldn't believe what these men went through.  It was a great movie, and true story that I would recommend to everyone!

It took Dave and Janet 30 minutes to notice haha.  That makes me laugh!

Pumpkins and the Maze

Josh and I had the best weekend. Josh planned for us to head to a corn maze and pumpkin picking.  When we arrived at the maze we were astonished at how many fun attractions they had.  There were slides, hay rides, games, food,  pumpkin picking etc.  We had a great time.  Definitely something we will be doing next year. 
At the pumpkin field they were having a discount on pumpkins.  All the pumpkins you could carry for $10.  Josh and I cleaned up!

Turning the Big 25!

While I was in St. George we were able to celebrate my moms 52nd...I mean 25th birthday.  For her birthday my cunning siblings and I thought it would be fun to get her a pinata.  I went to some rather sketchy parts of El Paso to find these little treasures.  It was fun watching her bust them open.  We love you mom you don't look a day over 25!





The "Gang" out to play!  

My dad purchase 52 bottles of Pepsi for my mom on her birthday.  She loves her Pepsi!

Jerzie Girl

I got to take  small break from the hustle and bustle of work to head home to visit my family.  While I was there I got to take some pics of my cute niece, Jerzie.  She was such a hoot.  I have loved watching this little girl grow up.  







Special Thanks to the St. George Carousel.  What a fantastic addition to the city I love.

Almay vs. MAC

Since I was 15 I have been an advocate for MAC makeup.  I love the stuff.  But for some reason the last 2 years of my life MAC and I have been in a love hate relationship.  I love the their vibrant colors and fun styles, but my face doesn’t.  As much as I wanted to deny it MAC foundation makes my face break out.  Sad day right? Wrong!  I though I wouldn’t find a foundation that I liked more, but thanks to my sister, I did.  Almay Smart Shade is amazing.  I was nervous when buying this products, but my sister insured me I would love it.  It has great coverage, but is extremely light, unlike MAC foundation.   I really like the product and would suggest it for anyone.  It only comes in 3 shades, I picked the lightest, but it blends to your skin perfectly!  I’m definitely an Almay fan now!

Submarine Movies, Not for the Faint of Heart

Josh and I have been watching submarine movies lately.  these darn movie are so intense.  I can feel my blood pressure raising as these movies unfold.  I couldn't live on a sub.  I feel claustrophobic as I watch them.  At the same time I admire anyone that can live and work in these amazing machines.  I recommend these movies, but not if you are faint of heart. 


Delicious!

Doesn't this look like the best snack!  I love fresh fruit.

The Best Football Appetizer


Football season is here, and I can’t think of a better food to eat during the big opening game than bean dip.  This recipe is so easy.  This is a definite crowd pleaser that won’t take you all day to make!


Recipe: 
First Layer: 1 can refried beans mixed with 1 teaspoon cumin and ¼ teaspoon garlic salt.
Second layer: 1 Avocado mixed with ¼ cup of Mayonnaise and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Third Layer: Regular sour cream
Fourth Layer: Cheese (my favorite layer)
Fifth Layer: Tomatoes, yellow onion, and cilantro
Such a fun dip that screams football!  P.S. Way to go BYU Cougs!

Mormon Ads


Since Josh and I moved to El Paso we have made a good list of things we enjoy about this city.  Number one on our list is most definitely our ward.  I look forward to church each week to see all of our wonderful friends.  It is funny, all the girls in my office were so baffled at how I could have an instant group of friends the second we moved here.  I feel so lucky and blessed that we have such a strong ward, who care so much about us.  I was lucky enough to receive a calling to work with the young women.  I am the Beehive advisor.  I love working with these girls each week.  They never cease to amaze me!  This last week for mutual I taught a lesson on the Strength of Youth and to follow up we made our own Mormon Ads.  The girls had such a great time, and just love the way their ads turned out.
