A new skirt, and BIG news!!!

So here is the big news... (no I am not pregnant) I am graduating in April now instead of July!!!! I am so excited! The only thing I am nervous about is I will be taking 17 credits, which I have never taken that many. I usually go to school in the summer and fall but I was able to get on fast grad. After I graduate, all I will have to do is my internship. Matt will just be working since he will be done with his Associates here at BYU-Idaho in December. Matt and I have enjoyed living in Rexburg but excited for some new adventures!! Matt will be applying for schools here in the future.

A little while ago, my mom was kind of enough to send me this fun skirt and some new shoes. She has been wanting to see it on me, so here is a picture mom. What girl doesn't love to recieve a new outfit in the mail!?! Thanks mom, I love it! It was very thoughtful and kind of you. That is one thing I miss rooming with Erin, sharing clothes! I felt like I had a whole another closet! (Don't mind the mess in the back, we were moving into our new apt. the next week so life was a little crazy for us!)

Happy Birthday Matt!

Matt turned 23 on November 22. All day he kept saying, "I'm so old!" I would just roll my eyes and say, "No your not." Ha Ha but I will ask him when he is 80 and see what he says. I woke up and made him waffles with a strawberry and banana smoothie. He then opened his gifts. His mom gave him the sweater and jeans he is wearing along with some Brian Regan DVDs. I gave him some dress shoes that he has been wanting for awhile, some cologne, and then his favorite cereal is Cinnamon Toast Crunch (he loves it, he will just sit and eat it by the box alone). We then went out later with Justina and Curtis Checketts to Stockmans. Matt ordered a delicious Salmon and I had the fajita salad. Michael, Christa, and my family, we have decided we are going there when you all come up for my graduation. Its out of this world kind of food! Then we went and saw the new James Bond 007 movie! Matt is such a great husband. He works so hard in school and in supporting us. He always makes me laugh and brings a smile to my face. I am grateful we can be together forever. I truly married my best friend.
Matt's Aunt Rita, gave him Uno Spin! It is really a fun and gives the regular uno a little spice!
Letter from Grandma Tietjen

Happy Birthday Matt!

Matt is a big fan of Seinfield. His parents over the years have given him all the seasons. So if you think you know your Seinfield, we are looking for some competition. He would slaughter me!
The package from my parents!

Some cologne I gave him from Banana.

The Happy Meal...

Matt and I went to the ward Halloween party on Tuesday. Matt and I were trying to figure out what we could be. I had the idea of Matt being Dwight and he then said I had to be Angela off The Office however my friend Kortney saved us with these amazing costumes! They were pretty funny! Thanks Kortney!


All we need is the drinks and shakes!

Monday night we made sugar cookies and wanted to decorate them and deliver them to our friends, however the batch made like 60 cookies! So by the time we made them and cooked them it was to late! I told Matt we aren't making cookies for a long time! I am all cookied out!

I love my big Mc Mac!
