halloween.

i just love the month of october and i love halloween! this past month was filled with halloween activities. i went to the haunted mill in rexburg with a large group of friends. it was super scary, but not nearly as frightening as the haunted house i attended the next weekend in salt lake city. it was called nightmare on 13th street and has been rated number one scariest haunted house in america by travel channel! it was forty-five minutes of pure terror and i can't believe i made it out alive! i guess i hadn't been scared enough because the following day we went to lagoon frightmares. it was a blast! i was a scuba diver for halloween this year. my costume was fun. it even had live gold fish in the tanks. i had an awesome halloween and i hope everyone else did as well!! :]















I also got a special halloween surprise...pictures from daniel!! hurray!! he got transferred to a new area, and is continuing to do well. i can't believe how fast time is flying by! i will get to talk to him on the phone is less than two months!! i miss him and love him!

mullet man.

a couple weeks ago i purchased some hair extensions. i haven't ever had extensions before, but they are pretty fun. my brother-in-law probably enjoyed them the most though!!

fall fun.

i absolutely love the fall and all of the fun activities that accompany it! i truly enjoy school and i love being a college student. work has also been a blast. i love all my kids. life is great!

back to schooooool.

summer has officially ended and school has officially started! i truly love this time of year, and i really look forward to attending school and going back to work. it's only the first week of school and i'm already swamped with things to do! my classes are all math and sciences. each class is going to require lots of studying and hard work, but i think i can handle it! i also went back to work for the after school program again this week at indian hills elementary. it is a blast! i loved seeing my kids again from last year and it's always exciting to meet the new kids. they're all absolutely adorable! the first day of school at after school adventures is always crazy. i was trying to get everything organized and meet each kid. an adorable second grader walked in and introduced himself. i told him my name and explained that we were happy to have him apart of the after school program. he quickly replied, "hhhmm....you're a pretty cute teacher!" me and my co-worker thought it was super funny. later in the day we were taking all of the kids outside to play. i was holding the door open as each kid left the room when this same little second grader turned and said, "thanks, hottie!" hahahaha! it was hilarious! i come home from work every day with silly stories about my kids. they say the funniest things. my job only motivates me even more to succeed in school and become a teacher! here's some pictures from the last week of summer and the after school program last year....









daniel has been gone for seven months today! he has been transferred to a new area called dunkerque. he seems to really enjoy the area and his new companion. i got a letter and some pictures from him yesterday! it sounds like he's really doing great, and having some fun along the way!

BOATiNG.

the moisture pocatello and eastern idaho have received this year has been such a blessing in so many ways, especially for BOATiNG!! my family and i have certainly enjoyed the full reservoirs this year. we have gone boating at least once a week and sometimes more. i love everything about it and i will definitely miss it when the summer ends. i have made so many memories boating and i know there are many more to come!

THREE YEARS.

daniel and i have officially been together longer than we will be apart! we have been together for three years today! i'm so grateful for daniel and i couldn't be happier to have him in my life! we have been through so much together the past three years. he's the best ever! i got my birthday package from him on saturday finally. he sent me a shirt, chocolate, pictures, and a tape! i loved it all. i miss him and love him! here's a picture from our first date and the cover of his photo album i made him for his mission....

SiX MONTHS.

daniel has been serving for six months today! i'm so happy and proud of my elder spicer! it is truly an accomplishment to make it six months. he is such a great missionary and i think he is really loving the work of the lord even though it can be very tough. daniel is such a great example to me and i know i have been blessed to have him in my life. i love the opportunity i have to share this special time in his life with him through letters, tapes, pictures, and emails. i'm looking forward to the next year and a half and the many adventures that will come for the both of us! goooo daniel! hahahaha.
