looking forward to...

i just found this picture, and i am totally laughing...

was this really only a year and a half ago? we look like babies.
and ted is wearing that watch. if you were wondering if i threw it away when we got married, i totally did.
and the stripes!...the STRIPES! we are twins.
anyway, this weekend i am looking forward to:
1. going to the pumpkin patch with tedward, and picking out the plumpest, most awkward pumpkin in the patch.
2. going to sprinkles and picking out two cupcakes each. there must be one to eat, and one for later! i will be getting coconut, and red velvet.
3. hoping tedward picks the pumpkin flavored cupcake, so i can steal it. but it won't really be stealing, because he is sweet and gives me anything i want.
4. putting the finishing glitz and glam touches on my halloween costume. sierra and i are are making matching costumes that will be fab. you will just have to wait and see!
5. snuggling with tedward while watching "the great pumpkin charlie brown". we love charlie brown around here.
6. making lula's recipe of roasted pumpkin seeds, and dreaming that it feels like fall here in Mesa.
7. driving to sedona to enjoy the changing leaves, to take pictures, and to eat a lovely picnic. hopefully snuggling will be involved...
8. listening to more michael buble. i am clearly obsessed.
9. enjoying our last days in our first home. i can't believe we will be moving so soon. it's bittersweet.
10. watching this video over and over again...

what are you looking forward to this weekend?

We were just in Sedona last week for vacation. It was beeeutiful! I had never bee before. We also spent 4 days in Tucson. It was like summer. I loved it. My home is in Nebraska, and it's just not that nice here. I haven't seen the sun since I have been back!!!

Whitney said...

I am in need of some cute otters stat!! Your weekend sounds quite the adventure! I am looking forward to 1. No chemistry 2. Looking/searching for that perfect costume 3. Perhaps carving pumpkins with my guyfriend 4. Organizing my life. 5. Boutique's with my other friend. I love Halloween but loathe it at the same time..I can never find a good costume and I am in no way shape or form a seamstress! ugh. Enjoy your weekend!

Katie said...

Otters are adorable! I spent two hours with friends looking at videos of otters instead of studying for a final my Freshman year.

I don't think I knew you were moving. Change is exciting. :)

Baby Tedauren is too cute.

Brooklyn said...

Speaking of Charlie Browns The Great Pumpkin I have one thing to say, "I got a rock." Hahaha!!

Kate said...

Carter @ The Kitchenette said...

I'm looking forward to going to one of the last farmer's markets this year. I hope I don't buy any more squash... but I probably will. I already have like 20 pounds at home. I love squash.

And I'll probably continue my quest of stalking Craigslist for new job listings. fun times!

Britney Jean said...

your weekend sounds like so MUCH fun!

i'm looking forward to putting together my scrapbook room, going to my brother-in-law's football game and either going to a haunted house or scary movie with the husband!

And...although this isn't the weekend...carving pumpkins for FHE on Monday night. It will be my first time EVER. I know, sad. But I'm excited!

p.s. -- i didn't know you were moving. how exciting!

p.s.s. -- that movie is so sweet. made my die. no lie.

Lil' Woman said...

Sounds like a great weekend, you and the Tedward are too cute! :)

Curtis and Dani Welton said...

Wow you going to do all that in one weekend? hahah

Since the hubby is talking a class for work on Saturday, I'm going to bake the whole day! Making apple pie, chicken pot pie (to put in the freezer), chili for dinner, and if I'm feeling up to it I'll make another attempt at a loaf of bread. Awesome.

Meghan O said...

You have a fun weekend planned! Yay!

So far all I have planned for this weekend is a few things I've done today for the group I'm in. We tie-dyed shirts (my hands are VERY orange from the red, orange, and yellow dye) and Bingo tonight =)
Next weekend is my fun weekend! It's homecoming and my parents are coming to take me out to lunch!

I was Charlie Brown as the ghost for Halloween one year and I literally got a rock... it was great hahah

Nancy Face said...

Okay, that's it...I want some otters!

Nancy Face said...

I buy my pumpkins on sale at the grocery store cuz I'm a cheapskate.

Yvonne said...

What am I looking forward to--a fun night out for our anniversary and then a busy weekend full of Stake Conference ; )

Hope you and Ted have a great one.

Can't wait to see the costumes.

Cat said...

tharker said...

Sounds like a fun weekend! Love a good pumpkin patch. (and of course Michael Buble! I'm obsessed right there with ya!)

I am looking forward to the grey, drizzly days ahead...I am LOVING it!!

Heather said...

I love Charlie Brown too. I have all the holiday specials except for the Easter Begal. I want to get that one too. I watch them every time it gets close to a holiday.

Have fun! I look forward to your costume!

Mauri said...

Sounds like fun! PS make sure you check on the Sprinkles website because they only offer certain flavors on certain days...I wouldn't want you to be disappointed if you went on a day they didn't have what you wanted.

PS i'm going to the fair on Saturday but we don't have money to pay you for a photoshoot. I'm really distraught about it. Stupid bills.

Alexandria said...

I am looking forward to my birthday on Saturday AND taking my niece to the pumpkin patch!

Um. The otters holding hands was so cute I got a little sick. 'Spesh when the one came back to hold the other one's hand again. Did I shed a tear? Yes. Yes I did.

And this weekend shall be the epic-est ever. My daughter and hubby share the same birthday, so we're heading to Disneyland. She's turning 3, and it'll be her first time. We're so excited!

Enjoy your weekend!

This weekend I will be working tomorrow but it's okay because we'll be running a Halloween party and get to dress up. I have my Renaissance Faire costume so I'm good to go! After that I am driving to Philadelphia where I'll be going on another date with the guy I've been going on a date with every weekend lately! I'm excited. :) Although terrified because I have never driven to Philly either. Then I'm working on Sunday. Til close. Boo.

Oh the video isn't working for me:(
Anywho... I'm excited for the 24 inch monitor I just ordered to get here!!!! I'm peeing my pants in anticipation!

Lula! said...

Look at y'all...twinners and radiant in love.

I want toasted pumpkin seeds. Good thing I'm making some the minute I get home from church tomorrow...gotta have 'em for Caroline's b-day party.

What else am I looking forward to? Well, I wasn't excited about it, but now that it's done, I am. I FINISHED WINTERIZING THE YARD. And by winterizing, I mean I pulled up all the dead annuals, turned over all the mulched areas & added compost to my raised beds. I worked like a dog today. And now I'm tired. Tonight I will snuggle with my babies and my husband...and then go to sleep before 10 pm. Awesome.

RatalieNose said...
