Christmas Music

One of my favorite things about this time of year is Christmas music! I am one of those crazy people who love to listen to christmas music way before the month of december ever begins!! It is on the radio now which makes me SO happy!!! And tyler even lets me listen to it at home sometimes!! It just makes me feel so good!! I had to write about it because it is one of my favorite things!! So all of you out there, I hope you enjoy the sounds of christmas!!!

Tyler's new Call

This last week has been really exciting but very humbling at the same time. Tyler was called to be the 2nd counselor in our bishopbric. When we found out we were so surprised. It was a little overwhelming at first to find out but we are adjusting to it now and are getting really excited. It will be so fun for him to work with our bishop so closely. And we have a great ward so it will be so much fun to get to know everyone a little bit better and be more involved. The only sad part about it is that he won't be there in sacrament meeting to keep me warm. I guess that means that maybe i'll get a new winter coat! ha ha. Love ya ty ;) But we really are so excited for this call and can't wait to get to work and start serving!!

Happy Halloween!!

For Halloween every year my sister in law throws the best party! It is so fun to see what halloween surprise we are eating for dinner. And she always has some sort of fun game or mystery. She puts so much work into it and it is always a blast!! I stole them from our family blog.

This is most of the moss family who were at the party. Missing is Natalie and Trav.

This was eating our crazy dinner. We had witches spaghetti and fingernails, and spider cupcakes. It was so much fun and the food was delicious. Thanks for all your hard work Natalie and Kris!!

Erik and Ali

This is my future brother-in-law Erik and my darling sister Ali.

They are So in love!! We are so excited to have Erik join our family in December. I believe he is perfect for my sister. It has been really fun to be able to get to know him. Last night we were able to see one of his talents. We went and watched a play he produced called the Foreigner. It was HILARIOUS! I don't think I have laughed that hard in a while. He did a really good job on it. If you ever get a chance, you should definatly see it! WELCOME TO THE CRAZY FAMILY ERIK, AND GOOD JOB ON YOUR PLAY!

Surprise!

This last weekend I wanted to Surprise Tyler and do something really nice for him. He has been studying for the LSAT and the GRE like crazy. Sometimes it is exhausting watching him study so much! He has been working so hard so I wanted to give him a little break!

So crazy enough.. I kidnapped him on saturday morning, packed his bags for him and took off for a weekend in cedar city. I think he was pretty surprised that I had thought I could pull something like this off! He was also a good sport during the long drive down and I think actually liked the surprise trip.

We had a really good time. We went and saw a play at the shakespearean festival, watched some good movies and had a nice break from the studies!!! My favorite part of the trip was the car rides because we were able to just talk and share our feelings with no outside distractions!!

Thanks Tyler for going along with my crazy ideas!!!

Also, we couldn't have gone on this little weekend getaway without the help of my parents. So I just wanted to give a shout out to them and tell them THANK YOU again and tell them how much I love them!!! They are the best parents that I could ever ask for!

Raising the Barn

Yesterday I had my first experience of

Barn Raising.
Does anyone know what

Barn raising is?

It's where friends or family

come together to construct

a barn.

It is very intricate and detailed work.
Something that

cannot be done alone.

Yesterday Tyler and I were able

to help his parents

finsih building their barn.

His parents
are such great people and are working
so hard to capture their

dreams.

We felt so grateful to
be invloved in their Lives and in
their vision of
the future.

This past week my little brother Scott got his mission call. He is going to be serving in Tampico, Mexico (yes like the orange juice) and leaves January 13th. We are so excited for him to be able to go on a mission and be able to spread the gospel to the people of mexico. We will miss him so much but are so excited for him to serve. Congrats scottie!
