Hump Day

Has this week felt like kind of the longest week ever?! I've had two midterms (one tomorrow) and Matt has had many group projects. I swear teachers just cram as much as they possibly can in the few weeks before Thanksgiving break. I just need to make it through one more day of school. . .

It was nice to have Matt home last weekend. We enjoyed a date to ourselves on Friday night. We finally got an excuse to use our bocce ball set. The weather was so nice on Saturday we just had to.

We are looking forward to going to the temple tomorrow and heading up to Heber this weekend to The Ford's cabin. Can't wait for all the Halloween festivities in store for us!

He has Done IT Again

My wonderful husband has made me proud yet again. He had his first fly out interview this past weekend with Ernst and Young, and fortunately enough it was our favorite of the three firms. He flew out Friday, much to my dismay, spent time with his parents and interviewed on Monday (as in yesterday). He got a call today saying they absolutely loved him and they extended an offer!

It still has not quite set in yet.

[This is our future.]

San Diego here we come, soon!

I love you Matthew! You make me prouder than proud each day!

Pinterest

So I am slightly obsessed with this little site.

It has a ton of crafts, recipes, clever ideas and more! It makes me want to do so many different things (which is not always the best) but this weekend I decided to try another pinterest craft.

It was fairly inexpensive and pretty fast.

Supplies:

(2) 25 yard spool of black tulle

(1) 25 yard spool of purple tulle

Orange ribbon

10-16'' metal ring

(apparently these rings are really used for macrame, but they work great for wreaths)

Choose any size ring you want just remember it will grow quite a bit once all the tulle is on it.

Its very simple. Just cut strips and tie in a single knot onto the ring.

Easy as that.

Mine turned out to be way bigger than I thought, but I think it is perfect for Halloween.

In case you were wondering. . .

I have the best husband!

(Sorry but its true.)

We have both been super busy, as usual, and this week felt especially busy. And to top off this long week I got sick. So my sweet sweet husband completely pampered me last night and all day today. He even blasted the heater this morning just to make sure I was extra toasty and fed me breakfast in bed! He truly is the sweetest!

He had an intramural football game this afternoon so I decided to go to Costco with my lovely Whitney and Audrey. And this is what I came home to. . .

I love you Matt!

Thank you for all you do all the time. You never cease to amaze (and surprise) me!

Update

Matt got second interviews with all 3 of the firms he interviewed with!! He makes me so proud! His fly outs start in a couple of weeks and until then we will anxiously wait to see what our future has in store for us.

I started patients finally! And thank you to Ryan (Matt's best friend) for being so willing to be my first patient! I'm still looking for patients though, so please come and let me clean your teeth!

Today was finally my last Friday for school! Apparently hygiene school does not believe in holidays or days off because every vacation we have to make up. (Hence the past two Fridays for the two days off at Thanksgiving...)

We enjoyed Conference weekend with Markham and April and our sweet Kaity and Jacks! We had lots of fun playing games, eating lots of yummy food and doing crafts! Thanks guys for letting us come and stay with you!!

And one last funny story for this post.

Utah decided to skip Fall. We went from beautiful sunny, warm weather to freezing cold snowy, rain. Not very fun. With the quick weather change came a little sickness. So after class today I decided to come home and take a little nap, I turned the heater on first (or at least I thought I did.) But really our apartment stayed at a crisp 63 degrees and just blew cold air.

Moral of the story. . .Light your pilot light!
