Antimony Again....

So we are off to Antimony again tomorrow to do some more hunting, so exciting I know! Its the muzzle-loader Spike Elk hunt and Jacob has a tag so we are off to Antimony to hopefully shoot something! He isn't going with this friends as planned, so I think that I'll go with him and hopefully we will get something! He has promised me that we wont hike far and that it wont be freezing cold, so i'm crossing my fingers that he isn't lying! :) We are leaving tomorrow after I get off work at 6 and then coming home Sunday night! I hope to have some pics to post of something dead :) Although if we do kill something it might end up cut up in my freezer... so I guess I have mixed emotions on the whole idea. It will be fun for Jacob to go and hunt and be in Antimony. He misses it so much so we are trying to go back as often as possible! No other fun plans for Halloween besides work and driving to Antimony, guess life isnt as exciting when you get older! :( I'm off for now, my stupid hour at the library is up and its going to kick me off! Cant believe I did 4 posts in 1 hour.... dang I'm good! Cant wait for my own internet! C ya!

FHE- Pumpkin Carving!

Like I said, we enjoy taking pictures of ourselves!

Mine was the spider on the right and Jacob's is the cat on the left! They both turned out so good





Love self timer... cant even tell! lol jk! Mid carving!


Jacob hard at work



Starting out.... gotta do a before and after shot! hehe






So we had our first FHE this monday- spesh I know- and we decided to carve pumpkins! I think we both kinda forgot the lesson part cuz we just ended up doing pumpkins the whole time, oops. It was super fun though. I love that Jacob doesn't think im stupid, or at least he doesn't admit it, cuz I love to do corky things that I did when I was growing up. I love to do things little kids would probably love to do and he is such a good sport and just goes along with it! So we got us some pumpkins and a carving kit and went at it! I decided to do a Spider and He did a cat. It was funny because we both got so into that we werent even talking while we were carving! It was quite intense! It didnt take us too long and I think they both turned out great! My favorite part is cleaning out the middle stuff, it feels so cool! After we finished we did a little photo shoot.... as you can tell and the put candles in them and set them on our back porch, since we have no front one. hehe It was fun to just hang out with Jacob since he is never home. He got to work in Salt Lake on Monday so we were able to see each other and spend time together, things I miss and cant wait to do more of! Love you babe!

Lazy Sunday!

So Sunday got off to a real rough start! For some reason my phone was ahead of itself and it thought last weekend was daylight savings time so we ended up sleeping in on accident and missing our church! So we had to go to Jacob's mom's church at 11. Its a really good ward, we love it, but our ward probably thinks that we are inactive or something! We have only been once becuase of the honeymoon, Antimony and such so they are probably beginning to wonder! We will be gone this Sunday to to Antimony for the Spike elk hunt so we wont be there again! Oh well I guess.... after this we will have to be regular attenders of our own ward! After church we headed down to my parents for Thompson birthday dinners! We were a bit early so we decided to go down Provo Canyon and stop and hang out, take some pictures and go on a little walk! Although the leaves are pretty much done changing and our now dying, its still so pretty up there and just super relaxing! It was nice to get out and enjoy the outdoors before it gets freezing! As you will see in the pics below... we had some fun taking pics of ourselves! We do that alot, take pics of ourselves, we quite enjoy it! haha! After Provo Canyon we headed down for the birthday dinners! We havent really celebrated in a while so we did June-October birthdays! We even celebrated Jacob's which was in May since he wasn't in the fam yet and didnt get the pleasure of being sang to... which he loves so much. It was fun to get to see everyone and hang out. Since we live in Heber I feel like I see no anymore.... so it was good to catch up! We also bought a WII from Kirk and Missy that night so we headed home, hooked it right up and played away! I must say I kicked Jacob's butt at the first game of bowling... its so fun. I didnt take any pictures of us, but I must say we got really into it and my arm was even sore the next day... thanks Missy and Kirk!

Jacob loves being in the spotlight... not! lol

My fav pic ever cuz Jacob always pulls the same ugly face! This is classic! He would kill me if he knew this was on here! I love it! This is what we do in our spare time!

Kissy Kissy!

Fun Filled Saturday

The gang! The boys were embarrased to be taking so many pics so we only got a few!

Me and Erin freezing our bum bums off!




So I know this is retarted but I have to come to the stupid library to post on my blog cuz we dont have the internet yet, so thats why I have like 3 or 4 posts today because this is the only time I have had all week to do them! So sorry! But Saturday was super busy with lots of things to do! First, we picked up our new washer and dryer and they are so super nice! We havent had one since we got married and have had to do wash and his mom's and mine, so its nice to be able to do our own now and whenever we want! We then helped my mom campaign and walked all around South Jordan! The election is coming up, so she was getting out last minute flyers! We then went to Jill and Jerome's house to help sheetrock their basement! I guess technically Jacob helped and I cut hair and grocery shopped, but it was fun to be there and hang out with them for a little while! We then finally headed home to meet Erin and Dan for our exciting night on the Heber Creeper! Thanks to Wendy, we got tickets on the Halloween train and it was so fun! It goes down Provo canyon and tells scary stories and has props along the way.... thank heavens it wasn't too scary, cuz I get freaked out so easy! We then went back to our apartment and enjoyed some hot chocolate and a game of Chinese Checkers! Although Erin kicked our butts, it was fun to learn how to play! Here is a couple pics of our jaunt on the Heber Creeper!

Early Halloween Party!

So last Friday Jacob and I went to his cousins Halloween Party in Sugarhouse! It was pretty much a family party with all his brothers and sisters and then his cousins that were hosting it! It was super fun! As you can see below... Jacob dressed up as a cave man and loved every second of it! It was so funny....! Then I was just a boring army girl again, I didnt feel like buying a new costume this year so I just went with something old! We had yummy dinner when we were there and then played Twister, Mad Gab and a whole bunch of other games! It was a really fun night! Halloween isnt quite as fun as you get older, but it was good to get together and hang out with the fam! Thanks Nicole and Casey!

Playing a good ole game of twister!

Honeymoon In Florida!

So I know that my blog is not exactly in order.... but I have to catch up with wedding pics and honeymoon pics! I probably wont have my wedding for a little while so I decided to do the honeymoon cuz I have those all on my camera! So... we went to St. Petersburg Beach in Florida for our honeymoon and it was absolutely gorgeous! We stayed in a hotel right on the beach and even had a cute balcony that looked over the ocean! It was awesome! The first days we got there we mostly just layed out by the pool and enjoyed some and R and R! It was our first vacation to be on together and we had a total blast! Probably our 4th day there we headed to Busch Gardens. My sister and bro-in law had some free passes so we decided to go and use them! We werent thinking and wore flip flops to the park and we couldn't really ride any rides... so thank heavens we got in for free or I would have been ticked! But we did enjoy the zoo they have there... its pretty sweet! The next night we went on a fun dinner cruise that takes you down the gulf of mexico (I think)! It was totally romantic and so fun! They served us dinner on the boat and there was live entertainment and dancing and all sorts of fun stuff! I get motion sickness real easy, so the first part was spent with me trying to focus on the boat moving and watching the waves and then I finally got over it and had a really great time! Our hotel offered water trikes which me and Jacob thought sounded so fun! We later learned after riding them that they are more of a workout then an entertainer! Its hard to push this huge thing over the waves, but I guess it was pretty fun! Other then that we really just relaxed and enjoyed ourselves! It was so so so hot the whole time we were there which made it perfect! If anyone knows me, they know that I love the sun and laying out! I could have done it all day everyday we were there but we decided we should do a few other things while we were there! We ate at some really good restaurants which was fun! We decided to totally splurge one night and I got this huge thing of crab for like $40 or something and it was totally not even good! They didnt even give me crackers to open them with so I had to try to use my fork and it was just a disaster! I got so frustrated that I wasn't even hungry for them anymore and ended up just sharing Jacob's salmon with him, but other then that... the restaurants were all really good! It was crazy to leave 85 degree weather and come back to a freezing cold Utah! I think on our way home the flight attendent said it was only 40 degrees in Utah! But it was good to be home though and get back to life! We opened our wedding presents the night we got home and that was totally fun! We got tons of awesome stuff and hardley any duplicates to take back, which was nice! So all in all, Florida was a total blast! Hopefully we can go back again on our 5th year anniversary or something.... or even better..... Hawaii! haha! Here are some pics from the honeymoon! As you can tell, I didnt wear makeup pretty much the whole time or do my hair! It was pointless! We were always swimming and such and the humidity was so bad that my hair just went frizzy anyways so I didnt even try! Pretty sunset on the last night we were there!
Oh how romantic!!? lol

Us on our dinner cruise!


We kept trying to take pics of ourselves but it wasn't working! It was too bright and there was always a stupid shadow!



What we did like every day! Layed out... it was so freakin hot!




Us on the Beach! So pretty!





Us on the sweet Safari Train!






Thank heavens for self timers on cameras! This pic explains itself.... so funny!







Us at the zoo in Busch Gardens!








Georgous view from our hotel room! The sunsets were awesome!

First Day on the Beach! The Sun was blinding!

Me and Jacob taking my family on a tour of the town!









Probably the first Sunrise I have ever been awake for!

So Jacob and I just got back from Antimony on Sunday and it was a total blast! When we were dating I was in Antimony just about every weekend, but since Jacob moved up to Heber in July I havent been back.... so it was fun to go back and be married this time! We actually got to drive there together and come back together.... something we have been waiting to do for 6 months! We got down there on Friday night about 10 and just hung out with the fam! Saturday morning, at 6 freakin' AM, Me, Jacob, his brothers and wives, his dad and sisters all packed up and headed up the mountain for the opening day of the deer hunt! Yes, I went hunting! Jacob didnt have a tag this year, but his brothers and dad did so we went along for the ride! Jacob had me all spiffed out in my cowboy boots and Carhart, I blended right in! After doing that, we met my parents along with Jill, Linsey and their husbands back at the Rockin R! They had come down for my wedding reception that night. We all headed up the canyon a bit for a little fishing, site seeing and shooting! It was fun to have my family there and finally see the Antimony I have been talking about for the past 6 years! I'm not sure if they were quite as in love with it as I am, but I think they enjoyed being there and taking a little vacation. That night was our reception and we had a great turn out! We actually had quite a few people show up even though it was the opening day of the deer hunt, and I got to wear my cowboy boots with my wedding dress, so I was super excited! Erin's family was also down visiting Grandpa Burr last weekend so it was fun to have them there, especially to come to the reception! Sunday was just more of a relaxing day! We got to sleep in which was great, havent been able to do that in awhile! We hung out with the fam and then pretty much just packed up to come home! All in all, it was a perfect weekend! Now we are back to real life and work! Jacob headed back out to Vernal this morning till Friday which sucks, but I'm counting down the days till they are done there and he can be back home! He got to work in Salt Lake yesterday (Monday) and it was so fun to come home and make dinner and just be a little family! Its still weird to think we are married somedays cuz I dont ever see him! But November will come sooner then later hopefully and he can start working in Heber again! I sitll need to get pics of the wedding to post on here... so until then sorry! Here are some pics though of our weekend in Antimony! I dont know how to get them at the end of my posts... so they are at the beginning! Enjoy!

Let the blogging begin







So, I just did a whole post and it just deleted! My first experience on here is not going very well! I'm new to the blogging world, so bare with me! I've always made fun of people with blogs, but they are so fun to "stalk" so I thought I would make one of my own now that I'm married and my life is somewhat exciting! Jacob and I just got married on Oct 3 and it was amazing! I will have to post about the wedding and the honeymoon and pics of both as well cuz they were both so fun! We are living in Heber City now and we love it! I work at a bank in Park City and Jacob is working as a first year electrician! He works out of town now in Vernal, which sucks! But he should be done with that in mid-November so it shouldn't be too bad! I have to come to the stupid library to update this thing cuz we havent gotten our internet set up yet at the apartment, so that kinda sucks! But i'll try to do it as often as I can! This weekend we are headed to Antimony for our 2nd reception and i'm so excited! I havent been there since like July and miss it so much! My family is all coming down too, so it shouldn't be interesting to see what they think of the place! I dont have time now to upload wedding and honeymoon pics, but here are a few of us on the way to the temple before the wedding! No one likes to read a post with no pictures! See ya!
