Picture Scavenger Hunt


For those of you who may be looking at this and wonder what the heck we are doing here's the scoop. Aaron and I along with Amy/Scott, Weldon/Julie and Teresa/Mike all went on a date together. Since we all live in different cities and states this is what we came up with.

Each of us came up with 5 things to go out and take pictures of, making a list of 20 total items. (our list is in a previous entry). Then we all went out to shoot our interpretation of each item, and then blogged it for all to see. Can't wait to see what everyone else did!


1. A STACK OF 10 ITEMS



2. BARK


3. SLIDING HEADFIRST DOWN A SLIDE

Thanks goodness it wasn't raining today!!!!!!


4. WOW


Walking On Water. Okay, it was really more like walking through water, so I guess you could say - WOW they are dedicated, or WOW they are crazy, but WOW it was a different run!


Of course we had to get this one, because we are sure this is what Scott was thinking. Aaron has his game face on.


5. SOMETHING WITH A HORN


6. WOOD

Okay, we broke the rules a little on this pic, but in order to capture the little guy we had to move fast and didn't have time to get one of us in there.

7. PICK OUT SOME LINGERIE FOR YOUR PARTNER AND TAKE A PIC OF IT

Just the look on Aaron's face is good enough for me!

So naughty!


8. DEAD END


Today was the first day of sun after two straight days of torrential downpour. This was our run this morning, and as you can tell from the picture up above, yes - we just ran through the water. Some of it was 4-5 inches deep. We were pretty wet!


9. HAVE SOMEONE TAKE A PICTURE OF THE TWO OF YOU EACH WEARING SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T BELONG TO EITHER OF YOU.

I think the pink ears suit Aaron. Maybe for Christmas.......


10. A BUBBLE


11. SIGNS AROUND TOWN WITH LETTERS OF YOUR NAME IN THEM

12. GARBAGE

Posing in front of Amy's weekly intake - Aaron did this one specifically for her


13. SOMETHING WITH THREE LEGS

we're so good we got THREE things with THREE legs


14. SOMETHING WITH A "Z" IN IT BESIDES PIZZA

You can figure it out :o)


15. BUY AS MUCH AS YOU CAN FOR $1.00 AND TAKE A PIC OF IT. HOW MUCH CAN YOU DO?

What can we say? We were hungry!


16. FEAR

Be afraid...........very afraid


17. KNOCK ON SOMEONES DOOR AND TAKE THEIR PIC THE SECOND THEY OPEN THE DOOR

This is Karen Halversen and her dog Schatzee.


18. A SPIRAL


19. HOT

We got two on this one. Aaron wanted me to take a pic with the "Hotties Hand Warmers" because I'm a hottie. (His words :o)



20. A CACTUS


We had a lot of fun doing this, and hope you guys did too! It was fun to all be "on a date together" but still be able to sleep in our own beds at the end of the day instead of someones rec. room!

Aaron's Music Update


Here is the poster for the movie Aaron's song "Cowboy On" will be in. The filming is done, and it is in the film festival right now. We actually have a copy of the movie, but we cannot post it until the festival is over, just part of their rules. So, look for it in the near future! It's a total morning seminary video!

If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you will be able to read Aaron's credit. Last name, second line. Fun!! Can't wait to show everyone the video!!!


Plus, Dale Vaughn just released his first album with Aaron's "Aint Suppose To Be Pretty". The name of the album is Hometown Feel. Go to this link - dalevaughn.com, click on the sample #1 on the left, and Aaron's song is first. Yea!!! You can order the CD by clicking on the Merchandise tab if you like his stuff. We know at least one song is good :o).

My New Do


So, I was getting to the point where I was either going to have to perm my hair or chop it off. It was getting so long that it was hard to style and I couldn't get it to look good without spending a bunch of time curling it. Well, since I was curling it anyway, and I love long hair, perm it was.

I have to admit, the first two days I HATED IT!!!!! I thought "What did I do! I look terrible instead of better." But, as perms go, after a couple days, and playing around with different products and style techniques I LOVE IT. It's curlier than I was imagining, but that just makes it more fun. Totally opposite what I normally have. Now Jess and I will look even more alike than we already do. Good thing she's cute!

Wet Game!


Well, November weather is here in full force now. Yea us. We knew the comfortable soccer games were going to come to an end, but that doesn't mean we have to like it! We played another select team today - not a good game. That seems to be par for the course this year though. Jess was in the net the whole game this week.

Final Score: 1 - 4


One of her awesome saves


We were pretty cold and miserable!

Halloween Party!


We had a blast at the Jensen's for our combined Halloween Party! The theme was Music, so we all dressed up as an era of music fads. It was way fun putting together our costumes! I think we all turned out GREAT!







Jess with her friend Caitlyn


Jess lost her Goth Pout in this pic. She couldn't hold it any longer.


Alison and I had the same idea. Funny! I guess great minds think alike.

Giving up! The mustache turned into the absent chest hair :o)


What we did:
Rock Band





Real Band


Pool


Guitar Hero Competition
(Jeff won the hard, Jess rocked on Expert. No one can touch that girl!)





Look at Jess taking Aaron's picture taking a picture :o)
