Uhh... Ummm... Uhhh

So at BYU-Idaho every Tuesday we have a Devotional where a speaker comes from different schools, and from around the area to speak to us about religious things. Anway, the speaker today was President Young, the President of University of Utah. And the first thing Paxton noticed was that he would say Uhh and Umm A LOT! He automatically started counting how many times he said it. Here is the paper where he kept tally. If you can't read it, he said Uh or Um 210 times in a 43 minute talk. And of course, Paxton, being the accountant, had to figure out how many times a minute and second that would be. So it is 4.8 times per minute and once per 12.5 seconds! haha. So funny. At first I couldn't even listen to the talk, Pax was distracting me. AND when he pointed it out to me, that's all I could hear at first. I got over that, and it really was a good talk. Anyway, we thought it was pretty funny.
I have a basketball game tonight and a volleyball game tomorrow night! I'm so excited to be playing again! Yay!
And Paxton will be tutoring students tonight, as usual, working so hard.
SCHOOL SCHOOL- that's all we're up to now-a-days!

My newest found hobby!

I decided to start up cross stitching, crocheting, and hopefully scrapbooking. I often get bored after I get my homework finished, so I normally watch TV.. but a week ago Saturday I went out and bought this little kit for cross-stitching. So I got it Saturday and finished it in two days. Once I start doing something like that, I don't ever want to stop. Anyway, so here is my beautiful little creation: I stitched the leaves, and tied on the strings and everything. Cute eh? I like it. Hopefully I'll get more cute patterns, and materials for scrapbooking. We'll see...

Who's This Guy?

You're probably thinking, "HOW DID HE GET SO SUPER BUFF" Well, the secret: Weight Lifting class Mondays and Wednesdays. We actualy both have a weight lifting class Mondays and Wednesdays. It's a lot of fun and keeps us healthy and in shape. What he really needs to work on is that haircut of his. He says that he's only 155 lbs. dripping wet but he's still pretty wiry.

Date Night

Our Date Night consisted of eating out at Winger's, and driving up to the Rexburg temple and checking out it's development.
Pax took a picture of me with the dessert bowl, well because I ate mostly all of it. Pax had probably 1/3 and I had the rest! I can't help it, I LOVE sweets!

Here's Pax rollin up his sleeves to dig into Winger's STICKY FINGERS! Yummmm..

oops- eyes are closed.

Well, there's our date night. This was about a month ago. Better late than never eh??
LOVE YA'LL!

Hittin the Books, Rockin our Socks!

Well, hello everyone. Just wanted to post some fun pics of us and tell you what's been keeping us super busy! We're both tutoring Accouting(Pax) and Anatomy/Physiology(Abs) like crazy- working about 12,13,15,18 hours a week! And then on top of that, we work on our own homework for our classes. We stay busy, get exhausted, cranky, giggly, and silly- as you can see above. We still have fun and make time for eachother! It's so great!
Now these next few pictures illustrate Paxton's goofiness- I LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM!

He looks like he's having a rough time with homework, but oh no, he's not. He fakes it because he's so humble. He's such a smarty farty pants! And I mean EVERY word of that! He knew I was taking a pic of him, so of course he can't smile like normal, but he makes painful faces...

aww.. poor boy looks like he wants his mommy! Ann, where are you?!!

And the following are pictures of me being goofy. This first one is a result of the long, exhausting, 12 hours days on campus everyday! We both are pooped by nighttime. Gotta love it eh?

Watch out- i might fling it at ya!

....overwhelmed...

Here we are, ready for church, looking ridiculously good-looking!!! We like to take pictures of us because we can't get enough of ourselves in the mirror. We like to see us on camera too! ha. I'm kidding.

Alrighty, well, hope all is well with everyone else- we miss ya'll! We'll try and keep update with our busy lives!
LOVE YA

It's Dragging...

Well hello. It is a quiet, relaxed Sunday afternoon, Pax is taking a nap, which is probably what I should do too, but I am sitting in the rocking recliner, updating our lovely blog.
Paxton taught the Priesthood lesson today in church, I got to hear some of it this morning. While I was making yummy biscuits for breakfast, he was rehearsing his lesson outloud. He made a powerpoint for the lesson- which shows how organized and prepared he was for it. He is always like that- i love it.
Meanwhile, we are both in school, almost done. It has only been 1 1/2 weeks into school and I'm already wishing it were nearing to the end. I think now that since we've known what our plans are-- to move to Dallas in April and graduate, I've been anticipating it for so long now-- i just want it to happen. I guess I should just enjoy the time in Rexburg when i can, but it's kind of hard to enjoy it here when it's -15 degrees outside! BUURRRRRRR!
We actually went to this cool show- a magician/entertainer came to the school- he was called The Great Kaplan. Anyway, he was very entertaining. He juggled with regular balls, huge bean bags, bowling pins- with a sword balanced on his forehead, and he also juggled ping pong balls in his mouth. It was hilarious. It was entertaining. He did a few magic tricks which were pretty obvious-- some we still didnt know how he did it, but it was funny because Paxton was trying to figure out everyone and wasnt very impressed with most of them.. cuz they were so obvious. This reminds me- has anyone seen The Illusionist? It's a bit like the Prestige but different though. We saw it last night and liked it lots. There were lots of magic tricks in that one.
Anyway, we love you all and miss you!!

First Day of School

Our first day of school was on Thursday! Yep, that's right, starting up another semester. Our last semester that is!! We both graduate in April, Abby with a General Associates and me with a BS in Accounting. We are so happy it's almost done and then we can move to Dallas!! So here are some pics of our first day of school...
