I can't believe it! Elle, my beautiful little niece, turned 1 yesterday. This picture is a couple months old, but it is my favorite picture of her. She is having a huge birthday bash tonight in Utah that I wish I could attend. It is amazing just how much I love her. I don't get to see her much, but I do think about her and wish I could steal her kisses more often. Jess you better get some good footage of her and her 1st birthday cake.

New Countertops
We have officially started the Kitchen remodel. Here are some shots of the counter tops. At first I was unsure on whether or not I liked them, but I just needed a day to get used to them being a lot darker than our old sunshine yellow counter tops.
I tried to get out of the pictures, but Jeremy was determined that I be in every shot. Next we will tackle refacing our cupboards and then laying tile.
Happy Halloween
I must say that this year for Halloween we really outdid ourselves. Our costumes were quite extensive and even required me sewing some leather vests and designing a pair of chaps for Jeremy. I felt a huge sense of accomplishment because this was my first sewing project using a pattern all by myself with the help of my assistant Jeremy of course. So in case you can't tell we are supposed to be Bikers. At work there is a bonafide biker who coached me on several points of my costume. Those are real leather pants that I am wearing that I borrowed from my friend Brittnay, she only has 5 pairs so she decided that she could spare one for the evening.
We took about 50 pictures because everyone at work wanted to see what I came up with. Jeremy actually found this Sturgis shirt at DI which was perfect for the costume. You can't tell but Jeremy has a little hoop earring on. He loved wearing it.
My mom and step-dad came up for the weekend. They had a lot of fun at our ward party. We had a lasagna dinner, carnival for the kids, and then followed that up with a trunk or treat. We had a fun weekend with them. We went to a local aquarium at Redondo Beach and then Mom and I worked on our 72 hour kits. So we are now ready for a natural disaster. Raggady Ann and Andy are our friends Mark and Brittnay.
This is one of my favorite pictures. We really tried to get in character.
