Fall Love

It's about time I show you our fall decorations for this year!

Let's take it from the outside in, shall we?

First off, this tree is about ready to lose all its leaves, especially with the cold, rainy, snowy weather we've been having the past few days. But those golden leaves sure are pretty!

Our front door.
Simple and welcoming.

Cute pumpkins. The itty bitty one was grown in our garden.
The cyclops we just carved on Saturday night with some friends.

(We think he looks like "Mike Wasowski" from Monsters, inc.)

What do you think?


Pretty fall door plaque from Tai Pan. Got a great deal on it during the Girl's night sale while all the men were in Priesthood Meeting for General Conference.

Tissue paper ghosts and paper strip pumpkins for the stairs.
I still need to add about 4 more pumpkins...

Isn't that just the cutest thing you've ever seen?

Larger paper strip pumpkins for extra decoration. I love 'em.

And so easy (and cheap) to make! I think I spent about $2.00 total on the supplies.

Creepy little bat potholder in our kitchen. He's hanging there keeping an eye on us throughout the season. Glows in the dark too, talk about scary!


And lastly, Michael and I went to our first USU Football game of the season together. One Saturday I didn't have to work during, so we went...in the freezing rain. Only stayed until just before halftime, then left because we were soaked. USU got stomped on by Hawai'i. 45-7. Ouch.

No matter, fall is still beautiful and it reminds us what we should be thankful for, and what blessings we have. Gotta love that.

USU vs. Nevada

Anybody who's been to an Aggie game recently, has beheld this chant in the last few minutes of a winning game. With a 4,000+ student section, it's pretty brutal and very much "in your face" for the losing team. Show me some True Blooded Aggies!

Aggie Basketball

For the first day of the new semester, Utah State brought it home with a basketball game against Hawaii. It was good to be back in the Spectrum with all the Aggie fans, cheering on our boys to a sweet victory. Michael and I LOVE Aggie Basketball and were so happy to be back in the midst of friends and a large student section. It felt like coming home.

The halftime show featured the Utah State Dance Company dancing to a mix of Michael Jackson classics. It was pretty cool and very Michael-esque!

And here we have the final score. Yeah, we creamed them by a whole 44 points. Not much of a game for the poor Hawaii boys. Better luck next time!


And here's a video of me "dancing" and "cheering" along to the USU Basketball Band. Not my fault. Michael made me do it. :)
