Thanksgiving Comfort

Thanksgiving was great for Tyler and Amy Rex. We started our day at my parents house and had dinner with my family and grandparents. It was fun cooking for the first time. I made a homemade pumpkin, pumpkin pie and I also made some stuffing from scratch. I felt like a grown up. It was fun! We also got a video of some family madness when ants started to attack the pies. Danielle was recording the whole thing with her camera and no one even knew it. I will let you know if it shows up on you tube. :)

After we finished at the Pitts house we went out ot LA to eat with the Rex's. We had so much fun at Christina and Justin's place. They have a really really cute place and we're excited that they are here and so close.

This year we are both grateful to have good family and friends around us. We are blessed with so much.

We also got a new couch on friday! Besides our desk, it is the only piece of furniture we actually bought for our place. Our wonderful family and friends gave us most of our furniture so we got really lucky, but we were excited to finally get something for ourselves. We love it! It is so comfy!

Sorry if it cuts off the couch... for some reason the blog isn't cooperating today (at least on my computer). I'll try to put the pics on later and see if it actually works.

viva la vida






So a huge blessing came into my life when Coldplay announced that they were adding one more stop to their tour. They just so happened to add a show at The Honda Center where my dad has season tickets and therefore gets tickets to pretty much every event there. Me, my sisters Kimberly and Danielle and my good friend Jessica got to go see Coldplay and it was amazing as expected. I am so amazed at how talented some people are when it comes to music. Music is such a blessing in my life. I love to basque in the goodness of creativity through music. What a talented group Coldplay is. I think they are officially my favorite band... and let me tell you, becoming my favorite band is not an easy task. Here is to Coldplay and all of their wonderous-ness. They never cease to amaze me.

Hawaii... finally

I am terrribly sorry that it took me so long to post these pictures. Life has been busy and the semester is coming to a close which means projects, papers, finals, and me being really tired and not doing anything as soon as I get a free moment. Tyler has been bugging me to get on the ball and update the blog so here it is. :) Enjoy. And if you want me to email you any of these photos just let me know!
