Are you kidding me!?

If only I was this inspired or this talented!! Check this girl out. She made a goal to make one dress a day out of a 1.00 item of clothing she finds at the thrift stores, garage sales... wherever! As long as it's a dollar. She's making 365 dresses in 365 days for 365 dollars. AMAZING.

Check her out! New Dress A Day

She takes this...

And turns it into this...

I wish I could sew my own clothes. Seriously, I do.

New adventures

Yes we're here, and yes we're alive! My procrastination is already setting in... I've been putting off blogging. I'm just not a good writer and journal-er. But I think you already knew that ;)

Hawaii was so much fun! It was the greatest, laziest week I've had in a long time. We went to the Polynesian Cultural center, Sea Life park, took a tour of Honolulu, went to the zoo, shopped, played in the ocean, ate a TON of chocolate covered macadamia nuts (seriously, we ate a whole bag just about everyday! Ha!) visited the Dole pineapple factory, macadamia nut farm and we were supposed to go see Pearl Harbor but we accidentally slept through that one :/ woops! I think the bus left at like 6 AM and we definitely didn't wake up to our alarm. Well, I think Brian heard it, then woke me up... but then we both fell back asleep. haha. Oh well, we still had tons of fun and were really sad to leave. I was excited toget back home to Koston though. I missed him so much. It was nice to know that he was in good hands. Thank you Mom for watching him! You are the greatest! I know he had lots of fun with you guys and didn't even miss us.

We've been in Moscow for about a week and a half. It's been good... I think we're gonna like it here. It's a small town... about 20,000 - 21,000 people I believe? Half of which are college kids. It's really pretty here... especially the campus. It's beautiful. It's really green and there's tons of trees! The buildings are older looking with red brick. The people seem to be really nice too :) We went to our new ward last Sunday and really liked it as well. We've met some pretty cool people. Brian actually invited them over for dinner this coming Saturday. Yikes! We're in a married student ward and most of the men are attending law school. Lots of them are starting their first year with Brian so that's good. Anyway, It's been going really well up here. We're pretty much settled in for the most part. There's just a few things we need to do.

I'll post more about Idaho next time! But get ready for picture overload! These are in the wrong order, of course, but oh well :)

"Hello walk" (on campus) Soo pretty.

Love those little chunky feet!

This was his idea of "helping out." Climbing up on everything! This was at our first apartment. We moved out of here a few days later into a different one. I'll post more about it later.

Gettin' comfy with the watermelons at WinCo.

At our first apartment we had no AC... and apparently Moscow had a heat wave that day because it was bloody hot! So Koston sported just his diaper :)

My mom came up with us and helped out. She was a HUGE help! I was so sad to see her leave :(

Yesterday was Brians first day of orientation for law school. What a handsome guy ;) I'm so proud of him.

The night before I left Danie, Tiffany & Amanda came over just to hang out and say goodbye. We took a bazillion pictures! It was really fun! I'll miss these girls a lot. It's always a good time when we're together :)

Koston was really feeling left out from all of the picture taking! So I snapped one with him.

Tiffany and I with our boys :)

Hawaii! This was taken at the Sea Life Park. We got to swim with these beautiful dolphins! It was awesome!

Brian & I also got wear wet suits and oxygen mask/helmet things and went down 18 ft. to swim and feed some sting rays...

and sharks... and tons of fish. It was AWESOME!

On our tour. Pirates Of the Caribbean had filmed here a couple weeks ago. Apparently they were in Oahu while we were there!

enjoying the scenery :)

The beautiful temple!

The dancers from Tahiti! They were my favorite at the PCC.

Spear throwing.

Games at the PCC.

These were literally on every corner in Waikiki.

Playing in the Banyon trees.

So apparently they didn't think we liked to sleep together... so they gave us 2 queen beds.

Solution = Super bed!

This was at the airport on our way to Hawaii... at 4:00 AM

Oh Brian loves pictures... can't you tell?

Well that's it for now! I gotta get back to this guy! He's into everything now!

And he loves to tear apart his books!

See ya!

A few weekends ago the girls and I ventured out to Scottsdale to have a fun, relaxing weekend. We went to dinner at Marcellas, shopped a little at the mall, got some yummy gelatto... talked alot, went to to our room at the Scottsdale plaza, talked some more... went swimming and talked some more... then went back to our room and crashed. It was so fun and nice to get together with all of them. Although not everyone could come, it was still a blast. Oh, and did I metion the sleeping in was nice? :) Cause it was! I'm really going to miss all my friends when we move :( But I know we'll all keep in touch.

The next morning we went to Sprinkles and got free cupcakes thanks to Hayley for knowing the secret phrase.. "summer Love" - SCORE!

WOW- They were DELISH!

Tiffany & I went to AZ mills and took our boys with us too. It was fun... Kostons been teething lately which has made him a little cranky, so it was kinda tuff at times with him, but he was still pretty good.

That trip left me questioning, why havent I been going to this mall the whole time! It's huge with a lot of good stores, and lots of good deals!

When we got home, this is how we found the boys - poor guys were so tired.. and sweaty! AZ is SOO hot. But, you already knew that. Ugh.

In the past couple of weeks all we've been doing is getting ready to move. I've sold stuff on craigslist, had a blog sale, had a garage sell and have just given things away. Let's just say.... I'm. over. it.

We've moved a big trash barrel into the basement so we could easily get rid of our junk. Koston's been helping out :) I know this looks bad... It was Brians idea :)

I'll keep the rest of this short and sweet since I have a bazillion of other things to get to, not to mention... sleep! It's going to be a busy day tomorrow! Getting ready for HAWAII! We leave early Saturday morning. We're so excited! We really haven't thought much about it since all of our time and energy has been focused on getting ready to move. This trip has kind of crept up on us. It will sure be nice and break things up a bit. YAY!

I'm sure gonna miss this little guy though. We're attached at the hip. Fortunately, he'll be in good hands so hopefully I won't worry too much. My mom's taking him up to our cabin for a week with some of my family so I know he'll have a lot of fun and get lots of attention :)

Have a good weekend! Peace out.

So he doesn't forget.

Today Tiffany came over so we could get our craft on & this was the result of it...

Tiffany's is really cute too! We'll have to post it once she finishes it! :)
