Lazy Nights..

Josh and I have been working a TON lately.
With the holidays coming up it is sure to get busier.
By the time we both get off work we are exhausted.
We come home eat dinner and just watch TV and walk
on each others backs!  Last night Josh and I were laying on the big
couch and Hendrix decided he wanted in.  We usually don't let
him on the couches but we were to tired to fight him and he
is a snuggler.  He laid at our feet and it was so cute.
I wish I could have taken a picture of our happy little family all on one
couch.  Hendrix was snoring while we watched the history channel.
I love nights like these especially with us working so much it's nice to just
spend time together and relax.

Here are some of our shows we have been watching:

Pawn stars 
Chopped
Next Iron Chef
Vampire Diaries
Greys Anatomy
The Office
Big Break Dominican Republic
Jerseylicious (Josh has to be asleep for me to watch this)
Best Thing I ever ate
Undercover Boss

Vampire Diaries




I am thoroughly obsessed with Vampire Diaries. If you haven't gotten into it your seriously missing out. You have to start from the beginning. The show is based on the book series that I read, I don't recommend the books. Even Josh has started to be interested in it when i watch them. It's on Thursday nights on channel 30 but I don't know what time, I record them. I know there is this huge vampire craze that is totally overrated since twilight BUT I feel like this show is more entertaining. I know it's crazy to say I would relate to vampires but I love the casting. Try it out so I can have some people to talk about it with!!!


P.S. I have been blogging about everything on my mind so excuse me if I ramble.

Crunch....


This was my view driving home today. Lovely. I can't get enough of this weather. I wish it would be like this year round.



By the time I got home this awaited me. So crisp and refreshing.



I love the sounds and smell of fall/winter.



Oh and my other favorite thing about fall, BOOTS!!! Here is my latest purchase.


Hunger Games

Ok, I just have to post about my obsession with the hunger games. I was one of the last ones to catch on to this book and I'm so glad i didn't miss out. I just finished the third last night. I definitely loved the 1st and 2ND the best. The 3rd one dragged on for pretty much the whole book right up to the ending. Everyone kept telling me i was not going to like the ending but can i just tell you i LOVED it. I just got so into these books. I felt like i was apart of them, it got scary. I was in an elevator the other day and was sure when it opened Effie Trinket and Haymitch were going to be standing there leading me to my prep team. Seriously guys I'm a nerd. If you haven't read them I highly suggest them and they are such an easy read. I'm trying to get Josh to read them because I'll be laying in bed at night just going over them in my head and i need to discuss them out loud. Ha ha. This post makes me sound crazy. On a more sane note I'm putting my no facebook to good use and have been much happier reading then people stalking!!
I snapped this picture when we were in Lake Powell. Seeing all the beauty around us daily and the wonderful things mother nature provides reminds me how great God is and his love for us for giving us such a beautiful earth to live on.

Whats cookin' good lookin'

So for the first time EVER Josh cooked! We went to walmart Saturday night for some groceries and Josh took an interest in what we were having the next few days. He saw some plantains that inspired him to make me a traditional Dominican breakfast....plantains and eggs. Of course I had to document it.
First he smashed the plantains and fried them in oil. (it smelled awful)
He had me try one and they were like bitter crunchy french fries.


Then he scrambled up some eggs and put it all together. (sorry about the pic quality)
Bottom line...when you are serving a mission in a poor country things like this become a treat. Once you've been back in America for 5 years it's just not the same. But it was fun to see him be so passionate about trying to cook.
