Is it time for snow yet?

I hate the rain (I know I live in the wrong state). I would rather have snow. Blayne is ready for snowboarding season already, we never got his gear put away from last year. We both bought new gear last year, it was great. Spendy but great. He has threatened if I don't take my skis up a minimal time this season, he is selling them. As if he would! Hate the rain, lets skip fall and go straight into winter.

1. I am very much so OCD
2. I rub my feet together while going to sleep, also CAN'T have any socks on (I prefer to rub them on Blayne's legs, if they aren't available I rub them together.
3. My room has to be pitch black while going to sleep
4. I hate my nose being touched
5. My dishes have to be done immediately
6. During conversation I validate you by saying, "right" often

Back to life...

So life as we know it has returned to normal. Blayne and I finished the 4th and final book in the "Twilight" saga last week. I don't think we have ever been consumed by anything that much........except the bug! So we need any and all recommendations for the next set or series of books that we NEED to read so we can ignore any and all responsibilities we may have. (Help me out, please make all suggestions asap, I have to teach Relief Society on the 19th.....Shhhh!)

Punk Rock Red!

Punk Rock Red, is what Blayne calls my new hairdo. Don't get me wrong he loves it, but that is his official description of it. I have the neighbor that everyone should have (one of them anyway). She was a hairstylist in downtown Portland. She recently moved to Washington but her Mom is still next door. So, she does the best job ever, and I figure everything is temporary so why not have a little fun! (My Maddy and Ashley's Abram)

The Melting Pot

Blayne took me to the Melting Pot for dinner, after taking me shopping for a new outfit for the occasion. I may have ended up with more than one...Shhhhh. I was welcomed by a dozen long stemmed red roses, we had a wonderful romantic dinner (for quite a pretty penny). I HAVE THE BEST HUSBAND EVER!!!! Being married for ten years definitely has benefits. Get older may have benefits also:)

Happy Anniversary!

Tomorrow Blayne and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary. We got married when we were 19, bought our first house in Oregon City 9 months later. We had Victoria after being married almost 4 years and we haven't slowed down since. Oh Boy!! We have come along way in 10 years, heck we have come along way in 5 years. We claim that we are not getting old, but I think we are trying to talk ourselves out of it more than anything. Happy Anniversary Blayne, I love you! Ten years down and eternity to look forward to!!

"Children of the corn"

So we spent our last weekend of the summer going to Kuna, Idaho to visit my brother in his new house. (Kuna is real close to Meridian and Boise) His house he bought is in a quiet little neighborhood that backs up to a HUGE corn field. So we let the kids out and of course they end up in the corn, just by pure nature of being a kid. It was a beautiful relaxing weekend. I am now addicted to the "CRICUT" machine. Best invention for scrapbooking and crafting in a long time. So here we go ending another summer and starting a new school year.
