Its officially Falinter

Fall is my favorite time of year- I absolutely love the trees and the weather... oh and my fall clothes are way cuter than my summer clothes (probably only cause it is way easier to hide the chub among scarves and sweaters than with shorts.)

One thing that I dislike about fall is that it is so dang short! It has snowed already. What the heck? At least halloween past without a flurry. Winter will be here before we know it!

Sky and I are trying to take advantage of the gorgeous weather (and of our weekends!!) The weekends are never long enough, but it is AMAZING to spend all day everyday of Saturday and Sunday together. Hands down- best two days of the week.

This weekend was another weekend to go down in the books. Thursday was halloween. We still had school and work (obviously) but work wasn't too terrible (I mean- it ain't bad to get handed a $50 bill for dressing up!). Later that evening I convinced my cute sweetie to dress up as a cop. And I dressed up as a robber. And we went to a little get-together. Not gonna lie. We played a hilarious question game. I'm thinking I want to play again for another holiday party? We will see.

Friday evening started with a freakishly long nap (I'm pretty sure my body is still recovering from Convention- pathetic, I know) and ended with a trip to Ross and some Farr's ice cream (I am obsessed with the salted caramel fro-yo- easily my favorite dessert right now!)

Saturday morning my cute friend, Amy, came by to show me her brand-spankin new apple computer & to chat for a while. Not only did she stay and chat- but she helped do some of our dishes. Talk about a good friend right there! Sky & I then left to SLC to go on a "field trip" He had to attend a mosque for one of his classes. I didn't complain because it reminded me of the good ol' days of Jeru. We both loved it! Our outing not only included the islamic center but also; savers, kmart, taco bell, halol, nordstrom rack and Thai food.  And target. Twice. We were looking for stockings alright?

Sunday we ran to our ward to say the closing prayer in sacrament & then ran up to Saratoga springs for my neice's baby blessing. Chloe is the most precious baby ever. So stinking cute. And then we ran to Alpine to chill, do laundry and eat my mom's delicious tuna casserole and brownies. After we got home, we started working on the 2nd bedroom... one day it will be finished. One day.

Cheers for now!
love, the Steedzzz

Laterly...

Man! Time is seriously flying. I can't believe that it is already halloween today! This has been the best 70 days of my entire life.

No joke.

Being married is seriously the best thing. EVER. I have never ever been this happy in my life.

Marriage is even better than I could have ever hoped for. We have gone through a few bumps so far (who doesn't right?), but I can honestly say that I married the most amazing man.

Life is good :)

 

Alright- so this will be a bit of a throwback post to cover the last little while. Its been freaking busy (and we have been in LA-LA land..)

Here goes!

 

 

My job comes with A TON of perks.

Skylor is not a huge football watcher but he came and sat in the NuSkin suite with me for a BYU game :)

Check out these colors! I love the fall!

 

Not only does Fall bring football games, but yummy treats and wanna-be crafts that I can't afford to buy in a store.

 

I saw a spider (I want to say it looked like this... but not really) in Sams club. Took a pic. Tried to replicate. Maybe crafts aren't really my calling?

 

This is probably Skylor's favorite part of this semester so far- say goodbye to the Cam-cam...  

And hello to the Celly!!

We searched for almost a year for cars that we could love and call our own.

Finally we found Skylor a good one.

After several different... and interesting test drives, we found this bad boy.

Found it on KSL, bought it from a bunch a dudes from Russia and Ukraine.

Closed on the car & drove away without the Celly.

But only because the Russians lost the keys on accident.

Hate it when that happens.

 



 

Among some other exciting things that happened at our apartment this semester, we had to take this lovely picture of ourselves. Both sick as dogs. And locked out of our apartment.

Here's to paying $65 to getting your apartment unlocked!

 

Here is one of those "other exciting things" that happened in our beloved apartment.

Check out this freaking amazing counter top that Skylor's g-pa made for us! We are seriously so proud. And excited.

Trust me. This counter top was a HUGE blessing.

I literally had about 1 sq foot of counter space. If you can imagine, it was a little difficult to cook, wash dishes or do almost anything else in the kitchen.

We are so incredibly grateful. 

 

Remember when I was talking about the perks of my job?

Well it also includes sweet seats at the Jazz games.

I will never complain about tickets to a jazz game.

By the way, is my husband not the cutest thing ever?

 

So this Camry is actually new as well... We got rid of one Cam-cam and adopted another Camy.

And Skylor, being the sweetheart that he is, he cleaned and polished my headlights for me.

Now my car looks brand-spankin-new. I'm pretty pumped about it.

 

 

 

So let me tell you a little bit about last week.

Midterms.

Convention.

Need I say more? 

Despite all the stresses that convention brought to me- I still managed to squeeeeeze out a 98% on my Stats midterm.

Go team Hollie.

This was my view for about a week straight. Loved convention BUT I'm glad its over.

 

Till next time!

Total Bliss

This has been the best month of my entire life- how did I get so lucky!! I am so in love with my husband its insane :)

Other than being happily married- school and work pretty much take over our lives.

We are finishing our apartment, constant dish-washing, buying cars and this and that.

I am so grateful for this beautiful and crazy life that we get to live together!!


Enjoy an overload of wedding pics now :) Video to come soon!

Without these two- none of this would have been possible. Thank you for everything! I'm especially grateful that you shoved me out the door to get on a flight to Jerusalem for the semester :)

So so happy!

Just following in the footsteps and tradition of my cute sister :)

 

I'm gonna be honest. It is difficult to get a good pic of everyone in the fam at the same time...

He treats me like a princess in every way

My sweet dad learned an entire dance to perform with me for our "daddy-daughter dance"

It was the best!

Wouldn't be a hit if my awesome sibs hadn't joined in at the end!

 

Obviously the best day of my life. I don't have many comments because the pictures can speak for themselves :)
