The time has come
Alright, friends. Here is the thing. I love blogging. I really do. And I love reading other people's blogs.
But this whole two-blog thing has me stressing out. Sad, I know.
So, I am going to be combining this blog with my other one. I hope that you will all still follow me over there as you have here. I will be doing many of the things I've started here and continuining them there, so you won't be losing anything. Promise.
I will be sad. I really will. I love this blog & format & design & awesome-ness. I sometimes even love having an excuse to blog twice in one day. I will miss the really random and wacky posts I do on this blog.
But hey. I can do them on my other one, too!
So come check it out. Just A Little Glimpse. Can't wait to see you there!
Until then...

Becoming My Mommy
It is kind of crazy to become your mother. I mean, I've heard it happens a lot. And I've actually seen it happen with some of my friends and my aunts. It's hilarious - when it happens to other people.
The good thing about becoming like my mom is that I love my mom and think she's the best. I got her brown hair, her love of music & theatre, and best of all - her cookie recipe.
That's right. Every Sunday afternoon, without fail, my mom makes chocolate chip cookies. Then we eat them. It's one of my favorite Sunday traditions and one that Best Friend and I have been really good at doing. In fact, today, Best Friend got everything ready for me to make the cookies before I could do it. It was hilarious.
So I guess it's not a bad thing to become your mother. As long as Best Friend doesn't mind. ;)
Thanks mommy! I love you!

OH! And ps - the people above us are listening to the musical Wicked. Very very loudly. I am singing along in our apartment (almost). This has convinced me that we have great neighbors.

summer --> winter = NO HAPPINESS
I feel like we skipped autumn. That is unacceptable because autumn is MY FAVORITE season.
This week here in joyful ol' Utah, we went from low 90's to low 40's. And that happened in less than 24 hours. Ridiculous, people. Seriously.
Good thing I went home Tuesday afternoon and put away all my short and pulled out my pants & sweaters because I would have DIED on Wednesday and Thursday in the freezing cold without all my layers on. It was crazy how fast the weather went from beautiful and sunny with no clouds to dark and rainy with no blue sky. Today we had to scrape ice off our windshield. Not ok.
However! Due to the sudden increase of rain, Best Friend took initiative and saved our mailbox!

See the leaking? It was so so sad and our mail was getting so so wet. Not any more though. What a guy, right?
So. Mrs. Summer & Mr. Winter - please bring me back Autumn. At least for a couple weeks. I would really super appreciate it.

p.s. Best Friend says it's supposed to be in the 70's again next week. Holy moly!!! What is happening?!

I'm a bad decision maker
Not that I make bad decisions. No no no. But I'm bad at making decisions. You know?
So here is the question: Should I combine my blogs or leave them separate?
PROS:
Those who read both would only have to read one.
I don't have to remember 2 passwords anymore (this is with my old email and it won't let me just change the owner of the blog. Don't know why, but it's not cool.)
I would have one super-awesome blog instead of only one.
I wouldn't feel guilty for posting on one more than the other.
CONS:
I like the personality I have on this blog. It's fun.
I just made some awesome changes (like all the pages I added) that I don't want to lose.
I love love love the template of this blog - it was designed just for me.
I may lose readers. (but of course I wouldn't cuz you'd all follow me there, too... ... ...right?)
I like the idea of a family blog that isn't just a me blog, you know?
So. Any opinions? Seriously - any input would be great. If you want me to keep this blog, please tell me. If you think I should combine them, please tell me. But please don't tell me any other pros&cons. My list is much longer than that, but I didn't want to bore you.
Please share with me your opinions good people of the e-World. I would love your advice & thoughts.
Much love.

SEPTEMBER-lites
SEPTEMBER:
2. Happy Birthday, Sister #1!
4. Celebrated one one-month wedding anniversary!
9. Auditioned with Best Friend for 'The Nutcracker' with Mountain West Ballet. We got cast as Party Parents, and our characters are the Bennetts from Pride & Prejudice. We have 5 daughters and everything! Haha! I am so so so excited. My cousin is doing it too, with a boy I went to high school with. It's going to be so much fun.
10. Happy Birthday, Sister #2! :) Did a fashion show with my sisters. Loved it.
12. Finally got our frame from Michael's w/ our wedding picture in it and the mat we had people sign at our wedding. It's on our wall and beautiful.
14. Happy Birthday, Brother #2! (Holy lots of birthdays!)

17. Worked my first BYU football game. (Not the first I'd ever been to. Of course not. Just the first one I've worked at.) I swear to Buddha it almost killed me. Holy cow. I was there for 10 hours. I know, it doesn't sound like a lot, but when it's your first day on the job being in charge of a whole stand and four people?! Yeah. It's killer.
22. Went to Best Friend's little brother's Men Chorus concert. Remember when I used to go to those but Best Friend was in them? Good times.
24. Awesome of all awesomes: Relief Society Broadcast. Especially this talk.
26. Got super sick and spent the rest of the week in bed. Gross.
What a great month. Lots happening for us. We love it! Brother #1 finally un-grounded me and I'm getting letters frequently. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It's the greatest. Below are some of my favorite pictures (not of people - those will come later) (and not including Picture of the Week pictures) that I took during the month. Enjoy!
And Happy October!
And Happy October!
