End of October!

Hello! A few updates for you all : )
Jeremy and I have had some really fun things going on lately! We spent Friday with his family, went to his sister Liz's cross country meet, his old high school homecoming game (where his sister Liz is now a Junior at), then out to a late dinner and back to his house for dessert and hanging out! We were out until about midnight with them (and apparently to him that was a big sign they approve of me!) so that was a great time to get to know them a lot more. His mom is an AMAZING hostess! Just like Mom :) with the talent of baking like Barbie. And the spunk like Liz Rice. And his Dad is just like Dave Odgers, firefigther and all :) His little sister Liz is like Abbey Wyley (basically the sweetest girl around) and his older brother Josh is like our Josh, very witty and the typical older brother: loud. It's been a lot of fun getting to know them:)
Here's some pictures from the meet:



Liz's Race starting off! She stayed towards the front the whole 23 minutes!


On Saturday we had a date night and with my roommates gone for the afternoon we decided to cook in! So we went and got stuff for spaghetti, cheesey garlic bread, and he made a green bean/sauted onion dish that was really good! (I know family, I ate onions!) We already dug in when I remembered to take a picture... so imagine this but looking even better!

An amazing surprise this week was getting a package from Aunt Jackie:) In it was a carved wooden frame that Grandpa Dean had made for me with a plaque hanging below it with my name and birth date. It meant so much to me, I teared up when I opened it. THANK YOU JACKIE!!! :) I hung it in my room with two pictures below it, one of me and grandpa when I was a baby and the other of my frame and the other grandkids' frames that Grandpa and Grandma Dean had in the house. Enjoy the picture below:)


Not much else is new! School is crazy and busy and I don't know how I accomplish my tasks in time but I do. This Friday for Halloween Jeremy's parents are throwing a party so I will be over there. Then just doing a bunch of homework!

I'll keep the updating going :) LOVE YOU!

It was thoughtful of Jackie to send you the pictures. Grandpa Dean loved you so much. Your dinner made me hungry. Thanks for the update. Luv you! Barbie
