I love the fall!!! I haven't posted for quite some time. We had a baby shower for my cute friend Shar and it was such a blast. We were able to hang out with friends who we haven't seen in a long time and we were able to celebrate Shar's baby Ella, talk with our great friend Erin who recently lost her husband to Leukemia just a few days after their son was born, and catch up with old friends. It was an amazing night of re-bonding for great friends. Also, here are some fun crafts I've been working on and our annual family pumpkin carving night. We had a blast, we miss the Fryer's every year. We are getting a little more technical with our pumpkins now thanks to templates haha Life is great at the Hoffmann house, Austin is just studying all the time and working, and I still work full time. We're just enjoying life and are preparing for our next cruise in December. Can't wait! I don't really have much to say other then we've had an excellent fall, lots of fun times going to dinner, movies, playing games with friends, homework and crafting. Living life to the fullest :) I've been trying to get all my Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving this year, so if you read this let me know what you'd like ha ha I haven't had a lot of success. I've also become slightly addicted to PINTEREST. If you haven't heard of it or joined, send me a comment with your email and I will invite you. It's pretty much the most brilliant website ever. Hope all is well for any of you who read our blog.

Chillin at the cabin in Bear Lake! the cabin next to ours

was having a family reunion and there were like 200 people

there, it was crazy. We couldn't help but watch, and they were

kinda taking over our yard, so we just relaxed and hung out on

the patio. We had so much fun!

I haven't posted in a while, but Austin and I have been having a great summer. Austin had the 4th of July off for the first time since I met him 5 years ago, so we got to enjoy the day at the parade, Cherry Days, we went to a movie with some friends and then a BBQ at the Greenwell's. I love the 4th of July, it's one of my favorite holidays. It was very fun and the Fryer's were in town. We spent a lot of time with them. We went to Bear Lake at the end of July with my family and it was a blast! Then my brother Scotty graduated from the police academy at Weber State University last week, it was really fun to be able to go support him and see him graduate. We're really proud of him. Only 2 semesters left and Austin will graduate. Can't wait!!! Sorry that's just a quick recap of the summer. We're looking forward to the fall and our cruise in December.

Celebrating some of the March/April Birthdays. We have lots

Wow it's been a long time since I posted anything. Where to begin. Spring has been good for us at the Hoffmann Home. Just working, school, and a little playing in between. Austin only has a few more semesters left of school HALLELUJAH! then maybe we can have a baby haha We had a fun Easter with the fam, celebrated several Birthdays, went to Cancun, and Austin and I recently celebrated our 3rd Anniversary. I can't believe how quickly the time goes. I can remember our wedding day like it was yesterday. We're still loving every minute of it and looking forward to many more years together. Hope you are all doing well, sorry it's so brief I'm more of a picture person then a words person :)
