Gordon family reunion





I definitely scored on the whole mother and father in law boat! These two are incredible and have so much love. I am truly grateful for such caring people who have been an amazing influence.

Hobble Creek



Shaun and I decided that we wanted to go up to Hobble Creek Canyon. Neither of us had been up there so we thought we would go and adventure! We drove up to the canyon and decided to take a left turn. This side of the canyon was full of absolutely gorgeous houses that were easily million dollar homes. We spend the day daydreaming about living in these beautiful homes. We then drove up a little further past these homes and up the canyon. We managed to see 6 deer run past us. It was a lovely drive up the canyon.


After going up the left side of the canyon we then decided to go back to the fork and go up the right side. We went up the canyon a ways and then we stopped about 3/4 of the way up and had a little picnic on the bridge. We were eating for about 10 minutes when it started to rain. We quickly grabbed our things and headed back to the car.  We had a fun drive up the Canyon and just being outdoors. 

                         I love our Saturday Adventures!

Happy Halloween



This was our first Halloween together as a married couple! We decided to be The man in the Yellow Hat and Curious George! I love being Shaun's little side kick :) As a newly wed couple it is not always easy to find something to do on Halloween. It is not like we would go to some huge singles party here in Provo or hand out candy to our neighbors (since most of our neighbors are college kids themselves. We were invited by a girl in my class Katrina to come to a Murder Mystery date! I have always wanted to go to one of these! So we were all assigned a character I was Dr. Frost and Shaun was Dirte. We are all supposed to act like our characters and just act like we were at a party. We all were having conversations and trying to find out clues about each other. There were about 8 couples there! 


Bottom line --I was the killer! 


It was a blast having Derek and Amanda there! We also invited Taylor and Thomas (Taylor is Amandas cousin) Thomas made the perfect cop! It was a night full of laughter and mystery! 

Welp this happened :)

Halloween 2015

 This is how we do Halloween at UCDH! We all have these ugly tan scrubs...so we decided to use them to our advantage and dress up as inmates! It was hilarious and our teachers got a kick out of it as well. Some of my favorite characters were Pooh-bear of course! We also had a Loofa, which I thought was hilarious! Most of us were inmates and boy some of them looked too good :) With fake tattoos and piercings we could have had anyone fooled :) The funny thing is that we had people touring our school to see if they wanted to be future students. I wonder what they were thinking when they saw us !

Courtneys Tattoo was my favorite! You can't read mine but it says, "Shaun" with a heart around it.

We had Ester Wilkins "Aka Dental Hygiene Queen" jump in the middle of our picture :) 
This picture pretty much sums it up!

Happy Halloween! Now back to studying :)

Ward party and halloween ski lift



Shaun and I dressed up for our ward Halloween Party. We were The man in the Yellow hat and I was Curious George! You can't totally see my outfit below because I was freezing! First we went to the ward party and then we headed over to our friends house Carter and Kate Babcock. We then ate dinner with them and then we were headed to the mountains. Shaun surprised me and we went on the Sundance Halloween Ski lift! I have been wanting to go on this for as long as I can remember! So I was very happy with this surprise! I lost my tail on the lift! lol It was absolutely beautiful looking up above seeing all the lights of the cabins! After that we went to Carter and Kate's house and watched some movie. Honestly I can't remember because I fell asleep. That happens a lot :)

Sundance Ski Lift! 




The Gorilla in the background successfully scared me 3 times that night, and this was one of them!

Fall Photo Shoot














Today we had a little Senior photo shoot up the Canyon at Sundance! Lauren is Brittani's friend who is starting up her photography business. She is incredible and so much fun to work with!  I am so grateful for these girls. Each one of them has something special that they bring to our friendship. They are all so sweet and loving! I have truly enjoyed getting to know them over the past year and look forward to many more memories! We graduate in April 2015, so little less than 6 months! These girls have been along the ride for every step of the way!
