Happy Halloween!

I love Halloween! It has always been my favorite holiday of the year. My sister and I used to play dress up all the time when we were little and it was so much fun. Having a holiday were you can be anything you imagine and get candy for it is just plain awesome. I can't wait to see all the cute little kids this year. I was looking through some old photos the other day and came across these.

Look at my brothers, what studs!

Two Weddings and a Baby

I have to post real quick about all the new exciting announcements in my family. My Brother's Matt and Andrew just recently got engaged and will be getting married next year. Andrew and his Fiance Analyn are getting married the beginning of February and Matt and his fiance Mitra are getting married in either late July or Early August. Then to add to the exciting news, Phil and Nicole called last night and announced that they will be adding to the family as well with another baby! They are due May 1st, and will know what the baby is in about another month or so. We are so excited for everyone! I guess that now would be a good time to announce the new addition to our little family...We are expecting as well! A new puppy that is, next spring.

Birthdays

So this weekend Ryan, my dad and I celebrated our birthdays. Ryan and I turned 23 and we are feeling so old now. My birthday was on the 16th and then Ryan and my dad's were on the 18th. Ryan kept teasing me and calling me an old fart for the two days that I was older than him.

Ryan got me a new dog for my birthday!!! Just kidding I wish. But for my birthday Ryan found a Malamute breeder in the area and we went a played with their dogs. Both of us have always wanted one since we were little and we have been wanting to get one lately. We spoke with the breeder and they are going to be having puppies next spring. We played with the dog that will be the mom and she was so pretty and well behaved. Here's some pictures of her. We can't wait for next spring!

We went out to eat with my Grandpa Smith and his wife LaRee at Magelby's on Friday, it was lots of fun catching up with them and seeing my grandpa.

On Sunday we had a relaxing day and had dinner at my parents.

For our birthday presents we decided to get a new computer since both of our laptops died on us. We got a Mac desktop and we're still trying to get used to it, but we're liking it so far. It's nice to have a computer that actually works!

James

Every Tuesday for the last few months I have been taking care of James my friend Pearl's baby boy. He's a little over four months old now and every week that I see him he has grown so much! He is a cute little guy and we have lots of fun. Ryan was worried that babysitting every week would make me baby hungry, but it has actually done quite the opposite. They are such a handful, I don't know how people do it, especially when they have like five of them running around! Don't get me wrong though, I really do love kids and am excited to have our own someday.
