It's Been A While

So I realize it has been a while since I have posted anything on our blog. Sorry. Life seems to have gotten busier since Fall semester started for Ben and I started working. So here is a little bit of what we have been up to.

Crafting season has commenced! Well, at least it did a few weeks ago. My lovely neighbor and I stole this idea from http://www.decorchick.com/diy/diy-fall-topiaries-a-michaels-knock-off/ to make Fall Topiaries to add a little festivities to our apartment. I am actually pretty happy with how mine turned out.


We bought an ottoman! I love it! My favorite part is that Ben sits by me more:) It opens up and has a ton of storage inside. We got it at RC Willey on an amazing sale. Sorry this isn't the best quality of picture. I took it with my phone.


My parents came out for General Conference. It was a lot of fun to go up to Salt Lake to listen to it. I realized we didn't really get a good picture of my parent's and us but I like this one of Ben and I.


This is the only picture we have of my parent's and I. Let's face it...this happens to all of us at least once during a General Conference talk. It's not that the talk is boring but that it's normally after lunch and we just need a nap.


Besides that life has been great. Ben has applied to two Ph.D. programs and has two more applications to finish. We are anxious and excited to find out where he gets in and where we will be this time next year.
