2010 will be a great year!!!

WOW it's January 1, 2010! That's crazy! It will be a great year though. Jordan and I graduate in April, I am going to be an aunt in 4 days, we will move from Rexburg at some point this year. Hopefully April, and Jordan and I will be able to get REAL jobs with our college degrees!! Sounds like a great year to me!! I am very excited for this new year and have lots of new years resolutions that I hope to keep!!

We have had so much fun here in Maryland/ Virginia. We have been playing and laughing and running around and getting our much needed sleep!! The first few days we were here we went to the mall like a million times to get Christmas presents. Then Christmas eve we went caroling with some friends at the nursing home near our home. After that we have a tradition to go to the visitor center to see the lights and hear the sister missionaries sing. It was really pretty and the missionaries sounded great!! We come home and of course what do we do? What the 24 hour marathon of a Christmas Story. Best Christmas movie ever!! Christmas morning was wonderful. It was so great to be with our family and enjoy each other. We were able to skyp with my oldest sister and her husband because they couldn't be here with us due to the baby they are having this Monday!! yayy we are sooo excited for them. I can't wait to be an aunt and hold my little nephew. :)

The Saturday after Christmas Jordan's sisters came and picked us up and we went down to Virginia to be with them for the weekend. We had so much fun, eating lots of junk food, and playing board games. Monday we went to the dentist since we hadn't been before we got married and guess what....Jordan and I have perfect teeth!! Well that's what the dentist said..I think it's just cause we didn't have any cavities. But we were really happy about that! We weren't trying to pay for fillings too! We came back to Maryland on Tuesday and have been laughing even more. Their have been a lot of funny moments! Its been great!

Yesterday for New Years Eve day we went down to D.C. and went to the Spy Museum. I really liked it. It was pretty cool! Jordan thinks he is a spy now so he really liked looking at all the cool gadgets and stuff they used to be a spy. He wants to go into the FBI so he loves that kind of stuff!! We also saw a the wizards center player Brendon Hayword. He were eating in Fudruckers and he came in to eat with his friends but brought food from another restaurant and the manager yelled at him and told him he had to leave. He is like 7 feet tall so he stood up and started talking back to her. haha they got into a little fight and she said she would call the cops, so he just ended up leaving. Jordan thought it was so funny and cool cause he loves basketball and who doesn't like seeing famous people! Also last night our friends Justin and Kristy came over and we played games, and rock band and hung out. Then we watched the ball drop and finally fell asleep!

We have had so much fun on our winter break. I'm not super excited to start school but I am super excited to finish school!! We still have a few more days here to play with our family but it doesn't seem like long enough!! Oh well we will enjoy our new year and hopefully I will blog more, that should be a resolution for this year!! Okay I will post pictures later!!!

It's finally feeling like Christmas

Yes, school is done, work is done (til January), and were going home in 2 days!! That means instead of thinking about all of the crazy school work I have to get done, I can start thinking more about Christmas!! I am so excited and happy that I get to see my family in two days! My mom called today and said that they are suppose to get a huge snow storm starting tonight sometime and its suppose to snow 14-20 inches between now and Sunday!! That's crazy, Maryland and VA hasn't gotten that much snow for so long! I hope it doesn't affect our traveling. We leave Sunday morning at 10am and I want to get into Maryland at the intented time 4pm! Last Christmas we got stuck in Las Vegas for ever because their was a lot of rain in California and that's where our plane was coming from! It took forever to get home. I don't want that to happen again. So we will be praying that the snow doesn't affect our travels!!!

I am so happy that I am done with all my classes. I really enjoyed them all this semester. I learned a lot and grew a lot too, but I was getting a little tired of assignment after assignment and test after test! It was time for a break, and this break is much needed. All I can think about is relaxing at home with family and friends who we haven't seen in over a year!! It will be too bad that my oldest sister and her husband wont be able to come up due to their son coming in a few weeks. But we still love them and will miss them very much. I know we will be thinking about them for sure!!!

So only one more semester for Jordan and I! YES that means graduation is almost here and freedom. haha I don't know why I think that life is going to get easier once we finish school! I am just very excited to move to a new place and start somewhere else a new chapter. Jordan is still on the search for internships. He has been doing a lot of applications and he hopes to stop by some places in DC when we are home to talk to them personally! Hopefully that will get him in somewhere!Well that's all for now, I will be updating soon so I can tell everyone about our trip and how much fun we have. Ill take pictures too, I always like reading blogs when there are pictures to look at. Its so much fun!! okay until next time!!!

Thanksgiving Break!!

We had a whole week off of school last week! It was absolutly great!! I am so refreshed, I still don't really want to go to school tomorrow but only three more weeks then we get to fly home to see our families. We had a really fun relaxing week. We were in Vegas for a few days and that was a lot of fun! We slept a lot, walked around and enjoyed the warmer weather. It wasn't super warm but a lot warmer than Rexburg. A coat was not needed, just a long sleeve shirt or sweater did the trick. We ate at some good resturants. Okay so we went to In N Out burger while we were down there. I had only been once before but it was like 10 years ago so I did not remember what it was like, and Jordan had never been. So we decided to see what all the hype was about....um are you serious that was what everyone was going crazy about..a cheap greesy not very good burger? I know I will probably get a lot of crap because I said that, but honestly it was nothing special. I guess for 2 bucks it was okay but I'd rather go to five guys and get my arteries clogged there. :) haha. Anyway that was our In N Out experience. Jordan liked it, but he likes anything that is greesy and on a bun. We stayed at the stratosphere hotel on the strip. It was cool we got to go to the top for free. We didn't end up riding the rollar coasters everytime we thought about doing it we had just eaten a big meal and I don't think Las Vegas would of appreciated my meal all over the streets. I also watched this program on the tv about the rollar coasters and it made me really scared so I was glad we didn't do it.

Thanksgiving was fun with Jordan's side of the family. I had been with them before but I think since I feel more like the family now since we have been married longer I was more interactive with them and could talk to them more. They are really fun and so funny also. We ended up having Thanksgiving dinner on Friday because Jordan's uncle David couldn't make it until Thursday night and we wanted him to be there. So Thursday we just snacked on lots of good food and ate Marie Calander Pies. Yum Yum. Then Friday we had our feast, and BOY was it a feast. Lots of good food, and the sweet poatoes of my goodness they were heavenly! Also the apple pie was AMAZING. Jordan's Aunt Marsha Made it and it was divine. I want more of it. Enough talk about the food. Im getting hungry.

It was different not to be with my family but we talked to them a lot on the phone. My parents and younger sister Jenney went down to TN to visit my oldest sister Carole Ann and her husband Jon. Carole Ann is due in January so she couldn't travel. They had thanksgiving down there with my mom's brother and his wife and two girls. I was a little jealous I couldn't be there but thats okay. Next year maybe we will all be together! Anyway the point of my telling you all this is that my family was over at Target by my sister's house and guess who they saw...Anyone wanna take a guess? Taylor Swift!! Isn't that so cool!! yeah and she got a picture with her! They sent it to me! I was super jealous at this point. I don't even really listen to her all that much just the songs she has on the radio...actually thats like her whole album but still I wanna meet someone famous. It was good for my little sis, she loves Taylor Swift so she was really excited!! Okay well that was pretty much our vacation in a nut shell. Only three more weeks of school and then maybe I will blog again.

Almost Thanksgiving Break.....

So I know I haven't posted in so long but my camera wont let my pictures load onto my computer. I hate posting when I have no pictures to show. But I didn't even get to blog about halloween or anything! Oh well I feel like I can't even blog about that now because it was like a month ago. Its Thanksgiving next week and we are so excited for break!! Only two more days until we get a week off of school!! I am so excited. I have been doing lots of homework to get ready for our great Thanksgiving vacation. Here is the plan so far...

Sunday: Leave for Utah. Spend time with my brother David and hang out
Monday: Drive to VEGAS!!! yesssssssss were going to Vegas for three days Monday-Thursday we will be playing in Vegas.
Thursday: TURKEY DAY!!! Drive to Cedar City and spend Thanksgiving with Jordan's Grandma, sister, mom, aunts, uncles, and anyone else...I'm not really sure who's gonna be there. As long as there is Turkey then I'm there!! haha
Friday: who knows but def eat left overs and maybe go shopping?
Saturday/Sunday not sure but start our journey back to the great place of Rexburg

Wow what a week! I cannot wait! We are staying at the stratosphere this time we will be in Vegas and Jordan really wants to ride the roller coaster at the top! That looks so scary. We will see if I do it!! If anyone has any fun things they know to do in Vegas that are not too expensive let me know! Well I hope my computer will stop being dumb next week so I can load our pictures of our adventure!!!

Utah and Family....love it!

So this past weekend Jordan, Laura, and myself took a trip down to Utah. It was great fun. We met my dad there, and my oldest sister and her husband their to play play play!!! So here is how our weekend went:

Friday: Plan to leave around 2:oo pm. Jordan decided we needed to make a quick stop at walmart to get somethings....little did I know he wanted to get Transformers to watch in the car. Well since he was getting a present I needed one too. YAY for Michael Buble's new CD!! I listened to it pretty much the whole way down. It is awesome and I love it, and you should all get it so you can love it too! We finally get to Provo around 7:30. We meet up with dad and brother and head over Brook Oven Pizza. Yum Yum. Carole Ann and Jon were getting in at 1030 so we needed to pick them up. Mission accomplished and we headed back to Provo. Jordan and I stayed at the greatest people's house...Erin and Kasey Johnson. We stayed up talking til about 2 and I had to get to early to take Jordan and my brother David to GAME DAY in the morning.....

Saturday: Alarm goes off at 6:30....kill me I only got 4 hours of sleep. We finally got up at 6:50 and I went to take Jordan and David to the stadium for game day. Got back to Erin's and layed back down..phone rings at 745...Dad calls and is ready for me to pick him up to take him to Game day. Do that...go back to Erin's and get ready. Now I am waiting for the boys to call so I can pick them up. Gee what am I everyone's shuttle? Oh don't forget how I get to take Laura my little sister to get her hair cut and then pick up my sister and brother in law to take them back to Provo. So by the time all of this shuttling is over it is only noon. Wow busy day so far. But I didn't mind it, it was fun and who needs sleep anyway right? So after the morning we decided we were hungry..cafe rio yep here we come. Then we just went on campus and that evening went to the BYU vs TCU game. We wont talk about that..I'm sure you all know how it went! That evening we went out for more pizza yes we like pizza....and then hit the hay I'M TIRED!

Sunday: SLEEP IN YESSSS!!! Went over to meet the fam for the last time and said our goodbyes took some pictures then headed home. I slept 3 out of the 4 hours I think. It was great! Got home around 6 ate french toast...and let me remind you how I did NO Homework this weekend. Yes don't you love that...until you find out you have 2 quizzes this week and 2 tests...oh crap. Maybe I should be studying instead of blogging....nahhh this is much more needed!!

Pictures will be coming soon. Hope you enjoyed my weekend as much as I did!!!!!

Pumpkin Weekend

So this weekend was Super fun!!! We actually did something other than homework. I was able to get all my homework for the weekend done on Friday. It was awesome. So Friday night we decided we wanted to carve a pumpkin so we went and got one. Obviously when picking out a pumpkin you have to find the perfect one....so I was looking for the roundest, the orangest then my wonderful husband insited we get this green one....because it was different and has character I guess? haha hes so funny, so we ended up getting not the orangest...but it was pretty round. After carving our pumpkin we watched the proposal. I love that movie it is so funny. I laughed so hard even though I have already seen it before. I made a big bowl of pop corn and we just had a great time together!!!

Saturday was another fun day. Of course I woke up early and headed to the gym. When I got home Jordan was still sleeping. He needs his beauty rest. :) Jk we did a little bit of homework and then we went out to Idaho Falls. We walked around the green belt got some lunch and just relaxed. It was a beautiful day. We had stake conference Saturday night as well. After stake conference I decided I was going to make my own pumpkin puree for some pumpkin bread. Now I didn't just randomly decided to make pumpkin puree, I have been wanting to do this for a while. Someone at work told me about a great website. (http://www.thepioneerwoman.com/) and I found that there was a recipe for pumpkin puree and I thought it would be fun to try. Wow its a lot more work than opening a can. Its not really hard cause all you do is roast the pumpkin and puree it. But number 1: I don't have great knifes for cutting pumpkin, and 2: I don't have a food processor so I used a potato masher. I tired using my blender but it was taking forever. So I just put some elbow greece into it and got the job done myself. Let me remind you I didn't start this project until 9pm and I also decided I would make bread and muffins also. I got finished around 11:30. It was a lot of fun, I will probably never do it again...well maybe if someone buys me a food processor (hint Christmas hint) I was actually thinking as I was making the puree "I will never do this again.." But then I tasted the bread and decided once I get better knifes and a food processor I'll do it. I am not sure if it was the bread recipe that was so good of if the fresh pumpkin made it that good? I just love pumpkin bread canned or fresh hands down. It was a fun activity and Jordan loves to eat so it was a win win situation. Oh ya and my kitchen kinda looked like a pumpkin bomb went off!!

I am really excited for Halloween. I don't think because its the holiday that I love, but because that means only 3 weeks until Thanksgiving break, and then three more weeks until the semester is over! This coming weekend my dad and older sister Carole Ann and her husband Jon are flying out to Utah so were gonna go down. I will be taking pictures for sure and will definitely post something after that. I'm trying to be better about posting more often. I look at everyone elses blogs and then I look at mine and its so boring compared to others. So I'm working on it! :)

Enjoy the pictures!

we put a candle in it just for this picture

I would feel bad if I burnt all four apts that are

connected to ours....so we blew it out after we

took the picture.

haha i thought this was funny.

Ended the night with popcorn and the proposal

(Jordan thought it would be cute to have popcorn

in his mouth while I took the picture...)

The beginning of the project....

After they were roasted...the house smelled so

good

getting ready to mash

I decided to freeze the leftovers...i probably wont

do this again for a loooong time!

and let me tell you...they were good

October Is Here!!!

I am so excited that it is already October!! The first month of school has gone by so fast, I hope it doesn't stop!! School is busy busy busy!! Its great though. I actually am enjoying this semester! Last semester I couldn't wait for it to be over. This semester is fun and hard at the same time. My health appraisal class is awesome. I get to have a client and help that person develop an exercise program and help her eat well and hopefully by the end of the project there will be a weight loss. I really like this class because this is actually what I want to do with my major. I want to help people change their life and meet their fitness and nutrition goals!! I get to work one hour a week volunteering in the wellness center on campus where I take peoples blood pressure, body composition, Vo2 max, muscular strength and endurance. Its pretty cool!

Jordan is enjoy the semester also. He is super duper busy! He has a lot of computer classes that he has big projects for. He is super smart so its a breeze for him. Well I don't know if its a breeze but I never hear him say his homework is too hard. So I just assume its easy peezy lemon squeezy. :)

We are very excited for October 23rd because we will get to see my dad, sister, brother, and brother in law down in Utah! That's only like 3 weeks away!! SWEET. I haven't seen my big sister and brother in law since Christmas and she is prego now so I am super happy I get to see her all cute and prego. She is due January 11, 2010 so she has a little more to go but def the cutest pregnant sibling in the Premont family...oh ya she is the only pregnant sibling in the Premont Family.

Well I just wanted to update the blog. I don't have any pictures because nothing has really happened where pictures were necessary. If we do something worth while I will bring the camera and post pictures.
