I'm back! For a moment...

Wow, hello again!  Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving! Ha, is it too late?? I've been a little M.I.A this past little while. Apologies. I need to catch my breath. There is quite a bit to catch up on!

(I'll be brief)  

It has been a crazy month or so!  And by crazy I mean good.  Besides the holiday's, school, and work, we finally moved into our new home!  It was probably the most hectic time of the year we could have chose to move in, but it has been worth it.  (Even if half our stuff is still in boxes crammed into one of the spare bedrooms...yikes!) We'll eventually tackle the unpacking. . . .

Right after finals.

We eventually want to do some painting in some of the rooms so for now, I'll have to post some pictures of the place. . . . . as soon as I get around to that. :)

Halloween was good. . . . went over to Gma Jone's to have some yummy soup and take a cute picture with her.  Matt worked until about 6, we had some taco soup, headed over to my parents house for a bit, and then watched a scary movie with my cute sis Camille and her friend that is a boy. ;)  It was a good time. We also went to see THRILLER with my family.  Another favorite tradition around Halloween!

Thanksgiving was great.  Took family pictures with the Peays, had two Thanksgiving meals, played the infamous candy bar game at gmas, ate way too  much, and did some Black Friday Shoppin.  A little over rated if you ask me.  UNLESS you have something specific you are going for, it's for a steal of a deal, and money is not an issue, in my opinion. . .  it's not really worth it.  I dunno.  Me and Matt wanted to get a home theater sound system for our family room and so we headed to Walmart around 10:30.  Bad, bad idea.  Even though we got a great deal of a big whoopin $40 off, if you know me, I can't stay up past midnight.  I got a little bit cranky waiting in lines that were hours long.

Next year I'll remind myself how much I love Black Friday shopping before I go. ;)

We ended up just shopping for things that we still needed for our house, so it was alright.  I just treasure my sleep more than anything, Matt knows this better than anyone. :)  We had fun together, I just don't know if the long lines, and crowds of pushy, crazy people are worth it.  That's just me though. Anyway, it was a great holiday weekend.  I can hardly wait for Christmas and this year to spend it with my honey!  We'll be going on one year this month! Can hardly believe it. . . :)

I'll post some pictures of our home once we get it organized and decorated! 

Matt was a hunter, and I was his catch.  (Not counting his other two deer he caught a couple weeks prior. . .) 

A favorite of last year on Halloween.  Love this witch! 
She came up to me right after I took her picture. ha :/






I feel SO incredibly blessed to have married into such a great family!  I love my in-laws and want to thank them for all they do for me and matthew! Especially helping us with the move.  We really appreciate it! 


Hopefully I'll be able to get back into the blogging groove after this semester is over.  

Until next time. . . 

Happy Holidays!
