Christmas Photos!!!

So Thanksgiving is fast approaching and we are all beginning to think about Christmas. Luckily, for the first time EVER, we have Michael's Christmas presents already bought and we have ordered our Christmas cards (will be mailed out in about a week so everyone get us your address by sending it to geiselfamily@rocketmail.com). Life is going great! I celebrated my 24th birthday last weekend by going to see the New Moon premiere (Jacob is steemy, but Edward is the true love) and then going to Rockies, a fifties diner, and China Blue nightclub on Saturday. The local radio DJ's really hooked me up. I won the tickets to New Moon about 3 weeks ago from them and then last Friday they hooked me up with 10 VIP wristbands (normally $20/person) for China Blue's Flight Night where they took us to Miami, Moscow, and Rio changing DJ's and decor and even outfits every hour and a half. While there, the DJ's also bought me and Nicole a couple of drinks and gave me a free t-shirt. It was a blast! Now we are looking forward to the holidays that are fast approaching!

Fortunes!!!!

So today I decided to get myself some Chinese for lunch (Panda Express) and when I opened my fortune cookie, it said "New financial resources will soon become available to you." I feel this is a GREAT sign. We are actually looking at buying a great home and this makes me feel like we are on the right path. We have been meeting with realtors, lenders, and consultants all week to get things going on this. On top of this, we were using the same mortgage lenders as the owner and a friend of ours works at the title company he wants to use. Things seem to be looking up! The last time we had things fall in line like this (with a fortune cookie saying "new blessings would soon become apparent") was just before we found out we were pregnant with Michael! We're keeping our fingers crossed, this new home is brand new 1650sf, black granite counters, stainless steel appliances, wood flooring, and it's perfect size, setup, and location!

Halloween Photos

Halloween this year was a blast! We celebrated on several days too. Halloween fun began with Boo at the Zoo where we had a great morning filled with costumes, candy, and a costume contest. We carved pumpkins with grandma and grandpa Citton a few days before Halloween and had our first Pumpkin Party! We not only picked out pumpkins and carved them, but we also celebrated with pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, and pumpkin tarts! Mmmm.... On Halloween, we took Michael to BSU to trick or treat from some of the men and women's team players (basketball, wrestling, etc.) during the BSU game just next door. The team players adored his costume (of course) and he got a ton of candy. As we were leaving, he had already dug into the chocolate. :) That night, we went trick-or-treating down 2 streets. At first, he was a little leary about the whole thing, but after 15 minutes he started getting the hang of it. Halfway through, he began literally running from house to house, and by the end he had figured out the knocking and he would hold both hands out face up in front of him and yell "bye" as he was taking off to the next house. We only went down two streets (culdesacs), but he got enough to fill his entire canvas bag full of candy that mommy, daddy, and Michael will be enjoying for quite some time. It was a blast to see him get so excited! We are now looking more forward to Christmas than ever (we even finished our shopping already)!
