Color Me Mine

This past weekend my friend Marcy and I went to Color Me Mine. It's a sweet place. I love it! They have a ton of pottery that you can choose from and then paint it. I decided to go big and design a cookie jar. There are a few rough patches but for the most part it's great. Drew said that because it was a bit pricey that I had to promise to fill it with homemade cookies at all times. Do you think he'll notice that the Oreos aren't homemade? 

Marcy made a plate, and it was amazing. She's an expert. I didn't get a picture of her finished product but it was fabulous.

So anyway when you come by have yourself a little treat:)

Here's Marc. Look at that design!

Here's my cookie jar before.

After

Inner Tube Water Polo

Well we have found our new intramural sport. Inner tube water polo. We had our first game on Friday. It was pretty fun. My arms were super sore. 

I almost had to wear a shirt over my swimsuit because I forgot it's against the rules to wear a tankini at BYU, so I tucked it into the bottom. Yeah I did look pretty cool. 

I think our team is going to be pretty good. I need a few more games to practice. We are going for another shirt baby!

The Festivities

Well I realize I haven't posted in a while, so I will just give the run down of what has been goin on. 

We left Provo on the 19th to head back to Colorado for the holidays. Drew came to school with me that day. I wish I had taken pictures during the party, but I didn't. They loved "Mr. Foster." It was so cute. 

The day after we cam home we got together with a bunch of high school friends. I love having the same friends, it's so fun.

I will try and share some other moments with pictures.

Opening presents on Christmas.

Snowboarding with my mom at Breck.

Ave's game. It was so fun! 

We tried to clear out our pores.

He was trying to get away from the camera. But I finally got proof that Drew did it too!

We hung out with Emily and Kevin. It was a blast. It makes me so excited to move back.

Emily is our pen pal! Love it. 

Dinner with the fam. My niece Kyla. She is going to be a big sister!

Our anniversary dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. We then went to the Grand Hyatt in downtown Denver. It was awesome! We wrote our annual letter to each other. We've made it two years. I love this man!

We then drove up to Laramie to see the Milmonsters. Little Milmonster is adorable. I don't know why it never is normal to see my friends have babies. It is so exciting.

Now we are back in Provo and getting ready for the new year.  

Home Sweet Home

Well everyone we are headed back to Colorful Colorado. Drew got accepted to all the dental schools he interviewed at (which is amazing by the way), and one of them happened to be Colorado. We have been praying very hard that we would get in to CU. Drew is an amazing man, dental school is really hard to get into and he did very well. I kind of feel like we won the lottery. Although I am starting to think about leaving and it makes me really sad. I have really grown to love this place and all of the people around me. But I still have a few months left to enjoy it.

Anyway, besides that we went back to Colorado for Thanksgiving and it was a blast. We were able to do so many things. Just being with the whole family is so fun. I must say I am very glad we won't have to make the drive home so many times a year. The roads were AWEFUL on the drive home. At least through the mountains. All day today I was in such a good mood just because we made it home safely yesterday. I love snow... don't love to drive in it.

Also, we decorated the house tonight, which is always fun. Afterwards we relaxed by the tree with a little hot chocolate (courtesy of Mark and Liz).

I didn't get a chance to take many pictures, or let's be honest I was too lazy. But I did get a few, so enjoy.

This is my niece Kyla.

Do they come any cuter than this?

She loved walking in my shoes.

Drew loves this picture. It looks like it is on fire.

This is in our family room. Check out those blocks. I was pretty proud of myself for making them.

Slanket!

Well everyone I have my new favorite item. It is called a slanket! It stands for a sleeved blanket. It just wraps around the back. I had never heard of it before until about a week ago when I saw it in a magazine and pointed it out to Drew, and said how cool it was. As it turns out Drew and already ordered me one a few days earlier as an early Christmas gift. He had seen a picture of it in an airplane magazine a month ago. I always complain how blankets don't keep my arms warm if I need to type or work on something. He knows me so well!

Oh and if you didn't know, we keep our house pretty cold so that's why having a slanket will be so great!

Halloween Festivities

Halloween was really fun this year. First of all we went to the trunk or treat at our ward and dressed up as a fairy and an Oger (sp?). I entered my chili into the chili cook off, but sadly there was much better chili there so the prize was a no-go for us. It was a lot of fun. (captions are on the top of each picture)

We carved pumpkins. This picture is blurry I am sorry, but check out that alien

Here is my witch. It was pretty intense.

Ofcourse we cooked the seeds. SOOOO good.

At school I dressed up as a smarty pants. The kids loved it. They wanted me to raise my hand and have everyone else giving me dirty looks. Although it looks like most of them are just looking at the camera:) They are so funny.

Here's my crew, minus a few.

We had a rockin party. Our craft was making a skeleton. Very cute.

Last night we gave out a lot of candy, which is always fun, and then had some friends over and played Scattegories (which Drew and I rocked) and then watched the Skeleton Key. I thought it was a good movie. I also made some graveyard dessert. Overall Halloween was a success.

The End

Well it was a bitter sweet day today in the Foster home. If you have been following our garden from the beginning you got to see the progression of our gardening experience. It was very cold here about a week ago and it totally froze our plants, and now they are dead:( But the good news is I won't have to figure out what to do with the squash anymore. It was out of hand. Actually we still have a TON. We dug up the garden and found one last surprise as well. You can now come over and not have to leave with a zucchini every time.

Here is a normal sized zucchini next to the big mama.
