October 2009

I have decided to consolidate the month of October into one post for two reasons. One - It's ridiculous to be this far behind. Two: I was without a camera for a couple of months. So all of these pictures are a collection from those I spent it with. Also after looking back this month I only did two things. Football & Halloween.

Julienne and I realized that we are Ute Football Soul Mates. We went to every game together. We shared the same level of passion and...loudness. Even though it ended up to just be the two of us almost every game...that's all we needed. And man, what a season to share!
After each game we would wind down at a neighbors house and holler with the silly fans sitting in traffic as they left the stadium.

Julienne is a Social Butterfly...if there were Queen Butterflies...she would be the Queen Social Butterfly. I have NEVER been to so many parties in my life.

And she was nice enough to bring awkward me along.

She even got me to go to the Haunted Woods up at Pioneer Village.

That's right...this is a different costume. We started going to Halloween parties three weeks before the actual holiday. And since we were continually running into the same people I had three....Yes. Three different costumes.

Four of a kind. Emmy. Amorette. Juliennie.

Most of them were dance parties. I had to rethink my ruby slippers for the next weekend.

I randomly ran into my good friend Jeanette, who had recently returned to the single scene as well. It was so good to see a familiar face for once. To say these parties were out of my comfort zone would be an understatement.

No Halloween is complete without carving pumpkins.

Mine is the toothy one on the bottom right. Who had a freakish accident and ended up with gills...or something.

Julienne and I stayed up all night making this Joker shirt for her brother. I wish I had the mad sewing skills she does. But I do make a decent assistant.

The roomies and I hit the ward festivities too.
We had been to so many parties that the actual holiday was kinda a bore. But I was super excited about being a bowler. :)

We hopped to four different parties. Finding the one with all of our wardies just at the end of the night.

It left us a little frazzled.

But I was always in good company.

Ready for another football game.

The game against TCU was a nail bitter, but thanks to their kicker...

It was just another field rushing victory.

I must say that the Oregon State game was by far the best game I have EVER been too. And I have been to ALOT of games. It was the BEST energy. It's really something that I only ever experience watching college football. I love it!

All and All, October was pretty outstanding. Sorry you get to hear about it months and months later.
