Halloween '09

-
Happy Halloween everyone! So this Halloween Roberto and I decided to dress up as a 70s couple. Roberto wore his Afro wig and collared shirt and I dressed up as a hippie. Our ward had a party last night and it was so much fun. We had food and music, which we provided since Roberto has a sound system, and we danced the night away. Tonight we have another get together with some neighbors. I don't think I've ever had a Halloween as eventful as this one. It's FUN!


I also got a chance to carve a pumpkin this year, ALL BY MYSELF! I couldn't believe how good it turned out. Roberto was at work and I knew we wouldn't have enough time to do it together once he got back since we were taking it to the party. I started out with one pattern and ended up doing something totally different. LOL. It was a little hard at first getting the top off of the pumpkin, but after that it wasn't that bad, even fun. Here's how it turned out:

Hope your Halloween is great!

Hello there to all our family and friends. This is our first blog and we are excited to join all you bloggers out there! Since this is the first post, I thought I would just give a quick summary of our life right now. Roberto and I are currently in Rexburg, Idaho where we are both attending BYU-Idaho. This time of year we are off from school, so Roberto is working, doing landscaping and taking two night classes and I am looking for a job. We have been married for a little over a year and we are loving every moment together. Looking for a job in Rexburg has been tough (I've been looking since July), but in the mean time it has been a great opportunity for me to learn and grow from those around me. Recently I was able to find a temporary position for someone handing out flyers for their new website. Their paying me $50 bucks to do it! So I'm glad it's something. Other than that, I usually visit other people who are home all day, so if you want company, let me know! :) Roberto

I really don't want to talk about this because I feel like a broken record. Some of you may already know about this struggle I am about to spill over about. Why am I writing this? I don't know for sure really. Maybe it's for me. Maybe it's for you. Well, here it goes. Why is the title of my post "2 years ago"? Well, that's because that's how long I've been waiting. That's how long I've been wanting. Yes, I want another child. Why hasn't it happened yet? I'm not sure. A LOT has happened in the past 2 years. My body has gone through A LOT just this past year alone (Addison's). I understand that. Kind of. But it still doesn't change how I feel about having another baby. This past weekend we had Stake Conference (it's a bigger church meeting) and at the Saturday evening session, a woman shared a story about her daughter, who had to wait 11 years to adopt her 2 children and have them sealed to her in the temple. She als
