Who COULDN'T love this?!

That's what I thought. ;)

Lately..

When I first started this blog, I thought that I would always have something interesting to write about. But as I started to really think about what we do in our day to day lives... I found that we truly aren't that interesting, and there really isn't anything interesting to write about. Hmm. I've found myself in a pickle.

So, I'll try to give you a quick (and trust me, it's quick) update on what's been going on in the Teran household.

• We both have callings now, and we both are back in Primary. I have to admit, at first we weren't particularly psyched, but we decided to give it our best shot. I'm the primary pianist, and he is teaching alongside another teacher of the 4-5 year olds. Playing in front of people has never been a strong suit of mine, but I've found that it is forcing me to practice- and that the kids don't listen to me anyway. :)
• I got a little promotion at work. It gave me a small raise, and I'm not complaining. Anything is better than nothing at this point.
• I decided to go to school, and even though I'm only taking one class- it makes me feel somewhat accomplished. I've been talking about going to college for a while now, and one class is better than no class! :)
• Alex and I are going to be lumberjacks for Halloween. I'm not one who generally enjoys dressing up for the holiday, but decided to give it a shot. Besides, it just means that the holidays are coming up!! I felt the urge to put on Christmas music.... but I restrained myself. Proud?

And truly, that is the updates of our lives. We're just living the routine life, and loving it. It's nice to have time to spend together and just enjoy this phase in our lives. I have no idea what will happen in the next few years, or where we'll be... but I'm excited for the journey.

Until next time....

A Change Of Seasons

Well, it's offically fall. We have autumn scents burning non-stop, and I've been trying to bake a little more often than usual. Due to it being our vacation (we have had this week off together) I thought it would be the opportune time to start my baking frenzy, but on Monday morning, I woke up with a horrible cold. I'm just now starting to feel better.... I've felt lousy all week. I was determined, however, to not let it get me down! :)

This week has been filled with:

• TaiPan
• Rolo Cookies
• Rolls :)
• Shooting guns. (Yep, you read correctly. I have to admit, I did enjoy it!)
• A photography exhibit downtown- followed by eating at a cute, delicious cafe.
• Deseret Book (where I finally purchased a journal... I've been dying to get one for the longest time, and I have been faithfully writing since!)
• IKEA
• Going on a mini hike in the canyons (and believe me when I say it was mini... my head felt as if it would explode.)
• Out to lunch with a good friend
• Getting excited for the holidays!
• Staying up late and sleeping in. :)

I'm thinking that when I go back to work on Tuesday, I'll feel refreshed and energized. It was a much needed break! I've been lovin' all this quality time with Al. I've been bad haven't taken any pictures thus far.. hopefully I'll manage to take a couple before the vacation is officially over.
