1. Exfoliate. Because my skin is going crazy and quite frankly so am I. So I soaked my feet at night, made a face mask and exfoliated my lips too. My skin is thanking me.
2. Killing flies. I have used every single magazine rolled up into a fly swatter to kill all the dumb flies in our house. Seriously. I need to go on another rampage.
3. 5,500 miles. Dalan drove 5,500 miles this month in the semi. I missed him. Although I did take off work once to truck to Colorado with him, and I liked that.
4. Scentsy. I am now selling Scentsy! I am way excited to start! The holidays are the perfect time to buy new scents! I should be getting my little starter kit in the mail tomorrow :)
5. Work Out. Because I seriously have been making myself this week. I am thinking of going to some classes . . . Ballet Blast just came to Logan . . . want to join?

October!
The colors are changing around here and it is beautiful!
Which means I get to do one of my favorite things . . . . decorate! Here are some letters I made. Shout out to DIY Crafts over in Tremonton,they have such cute stuff! I got the owl and the gobblin glitter over at TJMaxx.
I made this wreath the other day too. I just bought a skeleton at WalMart and hot glued it all together. Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy.
And here is the the font porch decor so far. I painted some pumpkins, I need some gold and glitter spray paint still . . . I put out my scarecrow that I won at our Bingham Family Reunion and we will see what I add or subtract as the month goes by :)
And here is my accomplice. He is a pretty good one too.
Happy Halloween Month Everyone!
M.I.A.
I have been slacking in the blog world for a couple weeks . . . but good news, I am still alive! I have some good highlights to share, but not yet. Maybe I will blog later. That is what I said to myself for the last couple weeks though, so we will see. I thought I would share the two handouts I shared with the Beehives today though. They are good ones :)
Enjoy Conference!
life is better when you're laughing.
1. The VOICE!
This is ridiculous. I think The Voice is one of the best shows. I have been so excited for it to start up again. It makes me laugh out loud, and literally, not the LOL people put in a text because there is nothing else to say. literally laugh out loud. The banter and competitiveness between Blake and Adam is hilarious. And yeah. We are basically on a first name basis.
2. Murphy
This might sound silly to some of you but it was a big deal to get Murphy. After losing Pepper we were heartbroken. We didn't want to replace her yet we really needed a friend. Now looking back I am realizing exactly how important it was for us to get him. I'm not going to go into details here but that puppy has really brought comfort to us and let us laugh at life when life life wasn't funny.
| This is Murphy on a very hot summer day. I filled his water bowl and he stuck his leg and face right in to cool off. |
3. Laughing.
Dalan makes me laugh more than anyone else. It makes my heart happy. I love him more than anything. Life is better when you're laughing.
4. Let it Go
I just finished this book, Let It Go, by Chris Williams. This is an amazing book of forgiveness. It also incorporates following the spirit, the power of prayer and the atonement. I want to tell you all about it but he has written it beautifully and I don't want to ruin it. Instead watch this Mormon Message about his story and feel the spirit yourself. It is such a powerful message. I would recommend this book to anyone, no matter what you believe.
Now this is on a much, much lighter note but this weekend has been so nice to me as to let me sleep in a little both Saturday and today. My mind is clear and rested and I am ready to tackle the world.
Laugh Lots.
I like . . .
2. The Hunger Games. ha ha Did anyone catch that smooth transition? I think I am funnier than I am. Moving on. I rented the Hunger Games from Redbox today and we are going to eat pizza and bread sticks and watch the Hunger Games and cuddle. That sounds like the best night ever right now. Back to the Hunger Games . . .I am a little obsessed.
3. Pinterest. Thank you pinterest for holding all of my pins. I mean really. I am a true pinterest addict. It is soo convenient to go back and look at all of my idea boards. And all my funnies. . . Those are perfect for a rainy day :) Here is one of my FAVORITE videos. It makes me laugh every. single. time!
5. Panda Express. A couple weeks ago I found this recipe that swore it made Orange Chicken that tasted like Panda Express and I was SO excited! because Dalan doesn't really like Panda Express but I really love it. So my thought process was like yes! now I can make it at home . . . and so I did and then it actually didn't taste anything like Panda Express and it was actually really quite gross. Which was SUPER disappointing. Getting back to my point Dalan took me to Panda Express this week and it was delicious. I got Orange Chicken and Honey Shrimp.
That is going to wrap up my list this week. It has been one of those roller coaster weeks but there are lots of things to be grateful for. Apparently things like eating food and Pinterest. . . . I just reread my blog and I am pathetic . . . oh well, it is honest.
Happy Eating & Pinning.
Good bye August.
I am so glad that August is over! I loved August but WOW was it busy. I am very excited for Fall to come and to have some slower days ahead. Here are some highlights from the last week of this crazy month.
1. Just a Regular Disney Prince
For my number one this week I am going to give you a little dialogue.
Dalan (coming into the house): Timari! Do you want a new pet?
Me (in another room): Is it scary??
Dalan: No.
Me (walking into the room): WHAT?! Did you catch him?
Dalan: Yeah. He came and landed by me so I caught him.
Me: What? Really?
Yes, really. Dalan just caught a bird. The bird was completely content with it too. He let Dalan pet his head and when Dalan let him go he just gracefully flew away to check things off his bird to do list. This just makes me smile. When does this happen? Dalan is just that cool.
2. This was my first full week of middle school! It was a fun week. I have been able to get to know the students a little more and I am enjoying myself.
3. My family came to visit this week! It was fun to show them Murphy and Murphy loved having visitors.
4. We were able to go to the Temple! We walked through the Brigham Temple Open house with Dalan's family. It was fun to finally go with Dalan!
5. Dalan's Birthday! Dalan is now 27! We had a really good day together. I rode in the truck with Dalan for a while. I made him a cake, and we went to Logan for dinner. It was a fun day. I am so grateful for him.
Happy September.

Top 6 Sing Along.
This week was full of great things. I am actually really looking forward to having a less busy week. August has been completely crazy. Here are my top things from this week.
1. Murphy. Murphy. Murphy. I know I have already blogged about him and all but here he is again, just being cute. How could I resist, right!? He is so fun. Come and meet him.
2. I have started my new job at Spring Creek Middle School! I am really excited about working with these great kids. They are in 6th and 7th grade. It will be a fun new adventure. Here's to a full week of school starting tomorrow!
3.Wednesday the Young Women were able to go to the Brigham City Temple Open House. It was so beautiful. If you get the chance you should really go. I was also able to put the little shoe covers on for hundreds of people before we went through the temple. My shift was about 5 hours. . . . so I saw lots of cute shoes :) It was fun to visit with people and see everyone bring their families. Such a special time!
4. It was fair week! I just love fair week. It is one of the best date nights. Here is one of my favorite songs & a tribute to the fair. Take a listen. Enjoy the fair.
5. Wicked! I was able to go see Wicked Saturday! Mary got all of us girls tickets to Wicked for our birthdays this year. We went to lunch and then went to Capitol Theater in Salt Lake. It is such a beautiful theater and the cast of Wicked did amazing, they are so so talented. I would recommend it to anyone. It is a play that I would be able to see again and again.
Here are a few of my favorite songs . . .
Popular & For Good.
Thanks Mary for thinking of us and giving us such a fun memory together!
6. Dalan gave a talk in church today and he totally rocked it! He did such a great job. He is just amazing. I am SO lucky.
Happy Sunday.
Our Suprise is Here!!
Meet our new puppy Murphy!
He is about 9 weeks old and he is from Midas, Nevada.
Dalan caught sight of this pup on KSL a while ago and mentioned that if he were closer we would get him! However, he wasn't closer :(
On Thursday we looked at him again and noticed that they were coming to Cache Valley!! It was totally meant to be right!
We were both very excited! Dalan called and asked about this cute little guy. (We are becoming buds as I blog outside, who could leave this little guy alone!)
He is already making us so happy. We miss Pepper and hopefully he will help our hearts feel happy.
Everyone needs to come visit us now and meet our newest addition :) He is very alert and super friendly especially with the Littles!
Howdy.
Howdy Blog World. I just had to jump on and share. This is my project from DIY Crafts in Tree Town that I mentioned yesterday. I LOVE it!
And this picture just makes me smile. Never has my sign Buckaroos Lose Yer Shoes meant so much. This is Dalan on Lucky, or Luckily as we call him.
Just a normal day.
