Dylan Makes Dinner

Dylan is making Chicken Parmigiana for dinner tonight. He has NEVER cooked for me [unless you count mac and cheese and frozen pizza] and tonight he is cooking for us and our only married friends, Katie and Ashton. Looking forward to a delicious dinner!

Salmon and Risotto

I decided to add some fish into our diet. I made Salmon with Risotto. It was my first time cooking fish and actually turned out quite well. I have been craving fish a lot lately so I'm sure I'll experiment more with it! I just prepared the fish the way the package told me and Dylan said it tasted like how they season salmon in restaurants [I don't have much experience in that area ;)] Definitely a win.

Video Chatting

Natalie left our apartment in Provo a mere 4 hours ago. Now we are chatting with her and Mom in Washington.

Family Visits

I cooked my first roast ever!

Add some homemade mashed potatoes, some green bean casserole, and some good company and we had a pretty dang good meal! 

Natalie and I wanted to do some crafting. Yes we are painting Christmas ornaments.

Dad and Mom Isaacson. They are so cute.

Dylan and I took Mom and Dad to Ikea......Mom is now an addict. We wandered the store, ate delicious meatballs, and Mom and Dad got us a pillow!

Our pantry, thanks to Mom and Dad and a Costco trip! [this is just everything that wouldn't fit in the kitchen]

They also got us a printer! Now I can print my art assignments from home and scan my sketches onto my computer!

We celebrated 2 months last week :)

Grape Juice

A good friend Laura Parkin [she use to babysit me growing up. she spoiled me rotten] has tons of grapes in her back yard. On Thursday my 2D design class was canceled so Jenny, Krista [her little sister], Jenny's girls and me all piled into Jenny's van and headed over to Laura's. Hailey was such a huge help picking grapes. She filled a whole bucket by herself! I don't know how many quarts were made that day, but I came home with 4! Actually, 2 were from last year, but still delicious.

Halloween Package from Home

Dylan's Mom sent us a little Halloween package. I now officially have seasonal decorations in my house! 

Homemade sugar cookies, kit kats, and some festive chocolate! Plus our bird (I plan to put him on my pumpkin :)

Glenda made this pillow for Dylan when he was in high school. It looks perfect on our couch!

Our little ghostie.

Thank you Mom and Dad!

Autumn Time

Autumn is my favorite time of year. Although we still don't have Autumn weather I am definitely in an Autumn mood. Dylan and I got pumpkins to carve [mine is the little one. 22.6 lbs. Dylan's was too big for the scale, so over 30 lbs] and I'm pulling out my favorite pumpkin recipes and Fall comfort foods. Now if only the weather would be more agreeable...
