Hmmm...

I want to start off by saying sorry for the horribly boring titles to my posts. I am really bad at coming up something cute and catchy. I was always bad at naming the albums on Facebook too. People would come up with the funniest names or something totally random and mine were always "Christmas 2010" or "Day at the Beach." Anyways...this past week has been really fun and I actually took more pictures to make up for the lack of them last week.

Yesterday Catherine and I decided to try something new and fun and go to Zumba. For those of you who don't know what this is, it is a dance workout class. They have classes all over and I had heard of it before, but would have never gone by myself. Catherine's friend Cora teaches Zumba at this new fitness place down here so we decided to give it a try.


All ready for Zumba class!



Man was that an experience!! It was so fun and surprisingly a good workout too! But the dance moves were hilarious! You should just youtube Zumba and you'll see what I mean. You really get your booty shakin'. But we just laughed the whole class and had a really good time! Can't wait to go back next Tuesday because I am going to practice some of the moves they taught us...hahaha, I'm sure Tyler will be thrilled!


Tyler and I also took Trigger to the dog beach last Saturday night. It ended up raining and storming while we were there, but then we got to see this awesome double rainbow!

If you look to the right of the main one, you can kind of see the second one too.


The beach was fun but there were lots of bugs because it had just rained and we got eaten alive! So we only stayed a few min. and then left. But Trigger had fun. We came back home and made steaks and cheese potatoes. Very good dinner!


We have been trying to make better meals for dinner lately so besides the steaks, Tyler also grilled chicken the other night...it was so yummy!! Here is a picture of our dinner that night..

Of course have to have the NC State cup! (Thanks Patty and Mitch!!)


Because our room is so small, Trigger has to go outside while we eat. He is so pathetic and always sits right by the door staring at us making us feel guilty. Poor Bear always hangs out by the door to try and make him feel better...however I think he ends up teasing him.
We also got a surprise package on Monday from my parents!! They sent us a Halloween gift box. There was lots of cool stuff in it, but my favorite was this very cute lunch bag with my new initials! Perfect to take to work each day!



And I can even bring it on my bike, which is great because I have been riding my bike to work everyday now. It fits perfect along the handle bars!




There was also some Halloween decorations...of course!! If you remember, I got some window clings for Valentine's Day, for Easter, and for spring, and now I have some for Halloween!



Mom also sent me some stuff to make spider webs. All thats missing is some lights! haha...but Tyler won't let me buy any lights yet. I guess we'll have to wait until we have our own place before we start going all out on our decorations!


Finally Bear and Trigger got new toys as well from grandma and grandpa. Bear loves his bright green fuzzy mouse and Trigger LOVES his new pumpkin. He will not put it down and it has been a week!









Thanks mom and dad for such an awesome surprise!! We all miss you and love you so much and can't wait until you come visit for Thanksgiving!!
