Big NeWS!!!!

Will has applied to go to Oakland Community College and we will know this week if he can start school in January. I am sooooo excited for him. He so deserves to go to school and he will finally have the opportunity to out here. WOO-HOO!!! GO WILL!!!!!

HellO Again Good Ol' MiChiGan!!!

Yes, it's official. Will n I made it back home in Michigan. We had so much fun Utah and it was reallly hard to leave. We had quite the experience on the tarmac waiting for our plane to take off. The pilot got on the speaker and told us that the plane was having mechanical issues and we wouldn't be taking off for a while, so we sat in the plane for over an hour before we finally got to take off. I was really nervous cuz I could see the mechanics outside working on the plane and sitting there for an hour, your mind tends to wonder and I started freakin myself out. Will pretty much slept through the whole ordeal which is great, I wish I could have. Ne ways besides that our flight was good. We got back to Michigan and it was SNOWING!!! I was so excited I wanted to come home immediately and put up my Christmas decor... but I didn't...yet!!!! Will quit his job and is going to be working for a water treatment plant. I am back in the grind of school and I decided that in order for me to stay awake and make it through these long next three weeks, I am going to totally need to drink at least one mountian dew a week. This is big for me becasue I used to drink soda when I was younger but I quit in high school and now I am going to start again all for the sake of an education. I'm going to post some pics of how pretty it is out here with the snow on the ground and some pics from our trip home. It was so fun to have Thanksgiving early with both of our families and just to see everyone was the best!!!

Will

So today is mine and Will's engagement anniversary. It has been two years since Will proposed to me. I know it might seem kind of silly having an anniversary for our engagement but it was one of the best days of our lives. We had been through a lot together at that time and when Will told me he loved me and wanted to be with me for all eternity, I felt like the luckiest girl in the world. I just wanted to take a second to blog about Will and how grateful I am for him. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that I would really go to Law School, that was until Will encouraged me and promised me he would take care of us so I could fulfill this dream. He works so hard every single day and when he comes home at night all he wants is to see how my day was. He is the best. I am so happy to have Will as my husband. I'm a very blessed girlie!!!
_peace out

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Hey everyone!!! We want to wish ya'll a very Happy Halloween and hope you have tons of fun!!! We put up our goblin decoration tonight with some scary music playing and it turned our really cute. We even had a few trick or treaters so we're excited. We had one lady tell us she loved our decorations and one little boy who took off running when he heard the creepy music. I felt bad so I explained to him that it's fake and it's only a decoration then loaded him up with some candy so he was happy. Also, since we didn't really have anything planned out as far as costumes go, I went to the store and bought us Michigan State T-Shirts(Go Spartans) for our costumes. I can't believe how competitive Michigan State and University of Michigan fans are. We were standing outside putting up our decoration and a couple walked by and said to us, Hi, GO BLUE(University of Michigan) cuz we had our Michigan State Shirts on. It was pretty funny. Our neighbor downstairs came over for dinner and we cooked some steaks and dutch oven potatoes. It was a really great Halloween and we hope you all are having a great one too!!

Will carving out the top


Carving out the face


CarVin the GINORMOUS puMpKiN!!!


So yesterday night Will n I took on the job of carving out our 100 lb pumpkin. I thought it was going to be so hard and it would take us forever. I was really shocked when we cut the top off the pumpkin and there wasn't hardly any seeds inside. It only took us about a 1/2 hour to carve it up. It's soooo cute. We both really love it. Hope you enjoy it too. We're trying to bring in some trick or treators with all our decor and stuff cuz I stocked up on candy and I'm going to make some popcorn balls to give out. So hopefully we get some kids or Will and I are going to be really full come Halloween night!!

Driving up to my School

This is a picture of what I see every morning driving into my school. It's sooo pretty. There are huge trees that line the whole driveway. It's like having a school right in the middle of the forrest. I LOVE IT!!!
