Aw, Man!

Well, Dustin got laid off of his job today with M13 Construction. I guess they usually have 10-12 big jobs at a time, and now they only have 2. Dustin's boss typed up a really good recommendation letter stating that Dustin was a fabulous employee with many great skills, and that M13 was sad that they had to let him go due to the financial integrity of the company. They said, however, that if things pick up, they would love to have him back. So yeah, we're hoping things will pick back up!
In the mean time, we're actually not too worried. We've been through this before (but who's counting??) and we know that we'll get through it, yet again! Heavenly Father has always blessed us so much. We've never had a time when we didn't have food, a nice place to live, a car, and other things of that nature. Plus, we have too much to be grateful for to complain about anything, like our health, our constant safety, our family and friends, our testimonies, a happy baby girl that always makes us smile, etc.. So we'll just do what we did before: get unemployment, sell plasma twice a week, and I'll pick up a few more hours at the Temple. Please don't worry, because we honestly aren't.
We're excited to go up to Idaho for Thanksgiving. It's nice to be around our families, and we haven't been up there for over 2 months now. It'll be nice to have a break and laugh a lot!
We hope all of you have a wonderful holiday!

Go Cougs!

Dustin and I have never attended BYU, but we did attend BYU-I and there are no real sports there, so we really enjoy going to BYU football games. We got to go to the sold-out one today, thanks to KSL.com/classifieds. We got a great deal on some really good seats that a kid was selling. They were in a student section, so we were standing the whole time and we were the only ones not dressed head to toe in official BYU Football clothing (we were still wearing navy and white though). It was a blast! Cougers won somthing like 41 to 7. Lillie was tired the whole time. To tell you the truth, we will probably never bring her to a game again. Who knows, maybe by next season she will be old enough to behave? just kidding. She mostly just ate popcorn and sucked on those 2 fingers.

After the game we went over to a friends house and I got some pictures of Lillie playing in the leaves. That little stinker wouldn't look at the darn camera! I still like the pics though. We're having a great weekend!

Halloween!

For Halloween Lillie was a pink poodle. She was pretty cute! I can't even believe it's already her second Halloween.

When we got home Lillie ate a bunch of smarties and a few suckers. She was definatly on a sugar high! She had a good time though, I think.
