Change of Weather

I learned to love fall this year, but i'm still not a big fan of winter. This week felt like winter, I can't believe it snowed this early! The day before it snowed I took these pictures :

Fall!

I haven't been a big fan of the fall in the past, but this year I am loving the season. I never realized how beautiful it is, and how welcoming the cool weather has been. This fall we have done a lot of fun things, especially spending a lot of time with family. Over Labor Day, we went to Manti with the Garfields to go four wheeling. It was so much fun! Jayden and I set up our new tent for the first time. Thanks to the Garfields season tickets to REAL we have gone to a couple of games as well. Real games are awesome. Last week was fall break and we loved being able to spend more time together. We went to the zoo, saw the social network, and had a date where we decorated Halloween sugar cookies ( We are both little kids at heart) :) I also read quite a bit over fall break. I started and finished It is a very moving book and a great page turner!

Grateful

Jayden and I have pretty opposite schedules. I work until 10 at night so we rarely get to eat dinner together on weeknights. During the week I see him in the morning when we wake up and for 2-3 hours before we go to bed. Even though our schedules are crazy and hectic right now I am so grateful I have loving husband to fall asleep and wake up to everyday. Getting married to Jayden was the best decision that I have made. I have never felt so loved and so close to a person. I was pretty opposed to getting married young. I made fun of the girls that got married before they were at least 22. I would think oh they are so young and have so much of life to experience. That all changed when I was dating Jayden. I realized that you don't have to give up your dreams or life experiences, but you can have them together. Doing even the small things together is so much better than doing anything alone.  I love thinking about of future. I love how much fun we have when we are together. I love the way that Jayden respects and treats people, especially women. I love his family and the way he acts around my family. The last two months have been so much fun while we are combining our lives together.

First Week of School

School is starting this week. I am excited for a routine, new classes, to learn, to know what I am doing each day. What I am not excited for is the absence of Jayden in my day. Our schedules are pretty opposite. We won't be able to eat dinner with each other Monday-Thursday. Most nights I don't see him until 10 at night. Which means....

I am going to LOVE weekends. 

Even more than before.

Today, Somehow on the second day of school, Jayden and I both didn't wake up until 10:45. I guess we were both tired. It was so nice to sleep in together and have a relaxing morning. I don't have class until 12:25 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sometimes you just need those days, even if it is only the second day of school. 

Fun Adventures

We have been spoiled rotten this summer by fun adventures. It all started out at the beginning of the summer when I went to Uganda for three weeks. That was a huge adventure! Unfortunately it was by myself. I loved Uganda but I would have loved it more with Jayden. For our honeymoon we went to Hawaii which I already posted about. Soon after we got back from our honeymoon we had the opportunity to go to Lake Powell with my family. I love Lake Powell and love boating. Lake Powell has always been fun in the past, but it was the best this year because Jayden was able to come with us. Then the week after Lake Powell, we were able to spend to weekend up at Bear Lake with Jaydens friends. We stayed at one of his friends cabins. It was so much fun to hang out with other married couples. It had never been to Bear Lake before so this was quite a treat for me and it was beautiful.

Things I love about being married:

Being introduced as wife/introducing my husband

Life is so much better when you have someone to share it with
