Body Worlds


This weekend Brandon and I went to the Body Worlds exhibit. We have been wanting to go for months and finally had a chance. It is really the neatest thing. These are real human bodies. And with the miracle of science they are able to preserve them through a process called plastination. Basically they are injected with a plastic like substance.

Anyway, I love the human body and I love seeing how it works. Brandon was a little nervous to go at first because he can be a little squeamish sometimes. But it was great. We spent a couple of hours winding though the exhibit. It's amazing how intricate our bodies are. Such a miracle.

Thankful


This year for Thanksgiving we got together with Brandon's family and I was in charge of cooking the dinner. Yeah! I know! I freaked out a little bit when I found out myself. But I figured it was better than the alternative...dinner at Chuck-O-Rama. We had 7 of us total so not a huge crowd. Luckily Brandon's mom came over and helped me cook. I've never cooked a turkey before! All in all everything turned out really well. I'm thankful that it did and I'm thankful that it's over!

Fall...Soon to be winter

Last week Brandon and I went on a bike ride to see all the pretty fall leaves. They were gorgeous! Luckily we went when we did because winter weather is starting to come in. I will miss our bike rides during the winter season. It was a good 10 mile ride until Brandon got two flat tires after riding over a few "goat heads." That's what Brandon called them at least. Enjoy the pics!

Halloween

This year for Halloween Brandon and I dressed up as hippies. I think the best part was scouring multiple D.I.'s for the sickest, nastiest clothes we could find. We celebrated by going to one of Brandon's cousins' house for a party. Enjoy the pics!




Ballerina?, Richard Simmons, Jane Fonda, Sarah Palin, John McCain


I can't believe she wore/found this! Hilarious!



Our pumkins.

So since I am not down in CA with the rest of my family, they send me pictures of everything I am missing out on. Here are some cute pics of my sweet little nephew Luke and the family. Miss you guys!




It's only appropriate that Luke have Oakley's like the rest of the family... I mean come on!



Cutest Peter Pan out there.



My beautiful sister...



Nana...



And Papa.

Look at this cool pumpkin stand they got. It's so cute! I have never seen anything like it!
