3 Things I LOVE About FALL...

Today, Joel and I enjoyed the nice day by going up the canyon to take the dogs on a walk. Being outside made me realize how much I really love Fall. First, I love all the beautiful colors! The trees are amazing right now, especially in the canyon! Second I love the weather! After a hot summer, the cool weather is a little refreshing. The last thing I love about Fall is the food! With a summer of grilled chicken and salad, its nice to be able to make a big pot of soup or chili. The only thing I don't like about Fall is winter has to follow it. Now only of we could just skip right to spring!

NERD???

So over the weekend I got some new glasses. The last time I wore glasses was about 7th grade and they were blue and purple and lasted about a month before I insisted on contacts. The only problem with contacts is sometimes when I get home from a long day my eyes hurt so I'll take my contacts out but then I'm blind. So I decided to get some new glasses. Now I realize I'm pretty nerdy at heart--I like school, I think its fun to make a budget for 6 months at a time, and I type and organize my grocery list-- but looking like a nerd I'm not quite sure I'm up to that! Joel thinks its funny to call me a nerd and four-eyes but I'm starting to get a complex. So do you think I look like a nerd? Be honest I can handle it!!!

Kaela & Joel's Day of FUN!!!

So Joel and I rarely see eachother. We both have such hectic schedules and besides Sunday we see each other only a couple hours a week. Well, he found out that he had a couple of personal days to use up before the end of the year so he decided to take Friday off since it is my day off too. We started the day off and went golfing (I know it's your grandpa's sport-but I love it!) I did pretty well. It was funny because on my first drive Joel said "Yeah, that was good but not quite as far as mine." Well when we got up to our balls mine was about fifteen feet ahead of his. It still is making me smile! After the fun golf game we went to breakfast where I got pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes! (I love pumpkin chocolate chip cookies so this was like dessert for breakfast!) Later we went and saw Forever Strong (The highland rugby movie) and I actually thought it was pretty good. We followed the movie with dinner at Red Lobster! It was a great day! I know it doesn't seem like much but for us just being together is quite a treat. I can't wait for our lives to slow down a little so we can have more days like these.
