We made it a month!!


We made it a month!! Jordan wanted to celebrate our one month anniversary so he suggested that we get dressed up and go to a really nice dinner or fast food and a haunted house. I choose the haunted house!
We went to the 'Scream Asylum' where my coworker Steven works. Steven said that Jordan and I were the first ones to go through that night and said that we were very entertaining. I think he meant that I was entertaining. I screamed at all the right moments and jumped at everything. It was so much fun, very scary but fun.
Afterward we went to the bookstore and I read magazines and got ideas to sell Christmas candy this season. (I am still working on a blog but it should be up soon.) I hope that it does ok and I am able to get a small candy business running for the future.
Jordan and I love our new ward! I was just called as the relief society visiting teaching coordinator and we were invited to attend a special marriage course they offer during Sunday school. This Friday is trunk or treat!
I love this time of year and being able to share it with my husband makes it so much better.

Made by Brook



I wanted to make a special thank you for those that put in so much time to make Jordan and my wedding day so special.

This is what I came up with...I covered rice krispie treats with Carmel, chocolate and then packaged them to match the thank you cards I am making to put with them.

They were so easy and fun to make. I hope they like them!

Back to real life




You have to stay entertained on a twelve hour drive so Jordan and I stopped along the way to Lamar, Colorado for our reception with his friends and family. We stopped and hiked to 12,100 feet. Not a fourteener but still fun. We also stopped to see the Royal Gorge Bridge, the longest suspended bridge in the world. Pretty cool.

We are moved into our "apartment" and I started my new job. Making candy is incredibly hard work. I am learning a lot but am exhausted by the end of my shift. Today I made one hundred pounds of Carmel by scratch!! I have to admit I will be glad once the holiday candy season is over.
