Free Time!

I've always loved watching movies. When I was younger I absolutely loved going to blockbuster to pick out a movie. I got lucky if I could convince my mom to rent more than one. I had tons and tons I wanted to see. I even love collecting movies. Gray Whale is my greatest weakness. If I go in there, I almost ALWAYS have a movie in my hand if not three on the way out. The very thought of cuddling up in a blanket to watch a movie makes me happy.

It seems as though Cory has found a love similar to mine. Video games. Don't get me wrong, he's not addicted. But he loves playing his new racing game just as much as I love watching movies. This has been working out great. Of course we have our time together when we get home from work. We love each other very much. But once it hits 8 or 9 o'clock.... we gradually start doing the other things we love. So we both take our seats on our separate couches. He plays GT. And I watch Netflix. PERFECT. We set our limits. But we love it!

This week I started a new series. Desparate Housewives. My guilty pleasure. I love it. I don't know why I didn't start watching it until now. It's great.

I honestly love this time in our lives. Neither one of us are in school at the moment, so we don't have homework. Once work is through, we can just play. It's been SO fun. So for now, we are going to take advantage of every moment we have. Because this won't last long...

December Reminiscence

Over the past few weeks, I have had to say goodbye to a few things.

1.
I will never again walk these halls.
Wednesday December 15 was my last day.


2




I will never again run up and down these stairs.
The Provo Tabernacle caught fire and burned down December 17, 2010. I have many many memories here that I will cherous for a lifetime.
3.

And I will never again see him swim around.
And our dear Captain Barbossa passed away December 27, 2010. Cory gave his usual burrial words and set him in the dumpster. We are now down to two fish. 


But, we had a great Christmas. Cory got me a real tree.


We loved our tree!
It was so nice to have Christmas with just us. We started some traditions and grew closer to each other. Every day we feel more and more like a family even though it is just us two.
We had Christmas dinner with Amber and Warren. Everything turned out excellent!

New Year's was stellar. We played games with neighbors and family. We had a Meet the Parents marathon. We saw Little Fockers. We ate Rubio's and CPK. We stayed up until almost 4:00 am playing video games. We made some goals. And we snacked. A lot.

Amber made some great crab cakes.
Cheers Warren!
Bring on 2011!
