New Moon Madness

What a weekend!! It all started friday when Sarah and I got New Moon pedicures. Soo relaxing!! That night, we went on a double date with Sarah and Ryan to go see NEW MOON!!! It really was awesome! I started reading the series back when New Moon had come out and waited anxiously for Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. I am not a huge fan of the actors in the movies, but I do love the story. My hubby was so good to go with me and be my Edward :) Saturday, we went and got some yummy In-n-Out!! We only waited a half hour in the car and boy was it worth it! I swear they put something in those burgers, because we are all craving more!

Today Derek and I are celebrating our six month anniversary. I am sooo grateful for my husband. He is perfect for me!! We have so much in common and he always makes me laugh... plus he is pretty freakin handsome!! We are so blessed in every aspect of our lives, especially in regard to our marriage. How many people get to start out their marriage knowing they will be together for eternity? I am so excited for all that the future has for us!!

The Last Few Months

So we haven't completely disappeared. We have just been spending a lot of time in this pretty building. So much has been going on this semester. Derek is doing great with his heavy course load and still working on his exercise science major. He just got a job to be a referee for the city of Provo to ref. city league basketball!! What a stud, right? I am still pursuing my English degree and working a Buckle part time. I also just started to work for the Education Department at BYU as a part-time editor! It is a dream job and a great opportunity to learn more about the career i am pursuing. Derek turned 22 at the end of September and had a great BBQ with some freinds. We have also had both of our parents out to visit: it has been such a great fall!! We are grateful that the winter has been mild thus far and are super excited to go back to Florida for Christmas. We are loving being out here at the Y and making great friends. Sorry there arent too many exciting pictures, but i will do my best to keep up a little better from now on.

Rafting the Provo River

This weekend we had the chance to raft the Provo river with Sarah, Ryan, Lara and Tyler. Lara and Tyler are in our ward and we love being able to hang out with them. (BTW Lara makes some mean enchiladas!!) So Saturday morning we roughed it up the canyon to try the perilous journey down the rapids. Ok so it really wasnt that bad. The water was freezing but it was hot enough to make up for it. The guys were great navigators and we made it safe and sound down the easy part. Then we left our hubbies to raft the bottom part of the river which turned out to be pretty dangerous. Apparently Tyler fell out and they narrowly passed under a bridge, but they survived with only minor injuries and alot more confidence. The canyon really is a beautiful place: we are so lucky to have such beautiful creations around us! Thanks to our friends for making it all happen!

The Last Month

Derek and I have been so busy! We are getting settled in to our life in Provo and really loving it. I have been working at Buckle three weeks and am really enjoying it. I am getting the hang of the store and love helping people feel better about themselves. Derek is doing great with school! He is studying hard and meeting some great friends, which always makes it easier to study. We are having so much fun and just feel blessed to have the life we do! Here are a few pictures from my most recent baking disaster and my new hair cut!

Cali with the Vorwallers

For the fourth of July we joined the Vorwallers on a road trip to California. It was such a fun weekend, even though it went way too fast! We had so much fun seeing Grandma and Grandpa Humpherys and being able to see the city! Derek had never been, so we spent the day at the Pier and driving around to all the main tourist sites. We also toured Grandpas orchard and ate the best fruit ever! However, the best part was the In'n'out we got on the way home! We were totally satisfied :) I love being married and Derek and i loved our first vaca together! Hopefully there are many more to come!

Wedding pictures are here!

So our wedding pictures are finally up! I cant upload any until i get the CD, but the website is shimerphotography.com. Megan and her husband did a great job and Derek and I couldnt be happier. It really was the perfect day! Enjoy the pictures!
