Hey everyone!

So I know that posts aren't very exciting if the don't have pictures...but this post is going to be amazing!

I started volleyball!!!!! Wahoo!!! I am really excited I am playing volleyball on an inter murals team for my school! We aren't that greatest but it is really fun to get together with other college students and play a little V-ball! Josh has finally gotten a Job up here in Monmouth! (I know it was only been two months of driving back and forth and we shouldn't complain because he was working) We are super excited! He is going to be home! Which means more time for him and Copper! We are going to Eugene this weekend for Souper Saturday and to hang out with the Fam! Denise is in the process of moving into her new place, it is really cute I am kind of jealous! It will be sad not having her here everyday and I know Copper is really going to miss her. MJ is crazy and I am so ready for her to be an old fat Cat that doesn't do anything but sleep and eat. Classes are good I'm not taking anything to difficult this term. Oh and biggest news of all! Josh and I got our first family ward calling................ We are on the activities committee! I know crazy! My whole single life I was never on the activities committee. First family ward we move into happens to have a opening just for us! Not much else is going on, we are still trying to get our house all together, hopefully the guest room will be all set in a couple weeks. We are finishing up our paperwork to become foster parents and really looking forward to that. After we complete everything we get to start taking the classes. Well I hope all is well with everyone else!

Sept 29th the great and terrible day





One month down and eternity to go!



Because of certain circumstance we have a new roommate! Denise has joined our family for about a month or two until she moves into her new place.(which by the way is a really neat little place.) Her first night with us was also our one month anniversary. We didn't really plan any big celebration. Josh was bringing up our wedding cake so we could eat it, and then we were just going to have a relaxing evening. He was also going to bring Frankenstein home too. I was really excited because Frankenstein had been living at my parents house since our wedding. If you don't know Frankenstein is our teddy bear hamster. While Josh was on his way up I called and talked to my mom, she asked me if I had heard the bad news yet from Josh, I hadn't so right away I called Josh. He had wanted to wait and tell me when he got home but because my mom kinda told me, he had too. Frankenstein had died. So, for now I call Sept 29Th the great and terrible day. It was sad that Frankenstein had to leave us, but he is in a better place now. We miss him a lot but we have moved forward with our lives. After Josh got home we opened our cake and had a little celebration. It actually turned out really good to have Denise there because she was able to take pictures for us!

So here we are with our Cake! yummy!


Yeah I was really excited to undo the ribbon...did I mention I got my Hair cut!







Uh... Is that the same face I made at the Reception...YIKES! I must really be excited!



Yeah we are pretty much nerds!

And finally Josh got to do what he had been waiting his whole life to do...Smash wedding cake in his wife's face. If you didn't already know Josh really wanted to do this at the reception but I told him he couldn't, so one month later he finally got too!

Thank you!

Since we have been back from our Honeymoon life has been a little crazy. While we are both working hard at getting our thank you cards out I want to drop another thank you!! Thank you for the cards, gifts, crafty things, running around, decorations, car rides, dress fixing, food preparations, clean up, pictures, shoes, make-up, cake, flowers, lighting of the lanterns, and all of the other many many things that were done for us. We are so grateful for all of the people that stepped in and made our Wedding and Reception amazing! I hope everyone that was able to make it had as much fun as we did!

OK updates!
We have officially moved into our apartment, but we are having some issues with the carpet and walls so they have had to come in and repaint and re carpet. Lots of moving the giant couch back and forth. Josh is still working in Eugene, so he is officially a commuter. Even though the drive is a little tough on him we are very grateful that he has a job. I don't start class until Sept. 29Th. Copper is living at Josh's parents. We are waiting until that apartment is really finished before he joins us.
I don't have any pictures to post of the Wedding and Reception yet, but I will after this weekend. Oh yeah and the Honeymoon was great!
