divine design

All I have to say is that Heavenly Father is one smart man.
It completely amazes me how He could create snowflakes, cell division, and electricity.
It is amazing to me, because he could have made it magic haha... like everything just magically worked, but everything that happens has a science behind it and is so intricate. The gospel is true, and the divine design is just more proof of it. Heavenly Father didn't just flick his finger and everything was created.. He thought it out. He planned it all. And NOTHING was an accident.

It's beginning to look alot like... COLD.

It is a getting really cold in Rexburg. The windshield has ice over it every morning, i wear scarves every day for warmth instead of just for style, we turn the heater on every day, and the pink snuggie has become a favorite of Chase. Lately we've been obsessed with 30 Rock on Netflix. We literally laugh out loud. We are also obsessed with a new recipe.. called chicken scalopini. It's chicken coated in italian bread crumbs with a lemony chicken sauce over it... i'm salivating. I seriously want to eat it every night. But i also made banana bread yesterday... actually because we didn't have any bread pans, they were banana muffins. So delicious. Also, in our lovely little apartment i regret to inform you that we have only a standing shower. In these cold Rexburg days my greatest desire is to plunge into a nice hot bubbly bath. BUT not to worry! My parents are going on a mexican cruise with Lindsey and Shawn next week... and you may be wondering why i'm telling you this in such a joyful manner... Chase and I will be stuck in the cold while they're enjoying warm Mexico.. WELL we get to house sit... which means the point of this horribly structured sentence is.... JACUZZI BATHTUB EVERY NIGHT!

Well, Utah this weekend. Jake's basketball game, BYU football game, and seeing family! YAY!

Below are two old pictures from conference, and pictures from this last week! :)

A couple old ones from general conference:

Halloween!

Chase's and Ali's, Lindsey's and Travis', Brandon's and Robyn's, and Brad's and Haley's

Peter Pan and Tiger Lily! (not the most flattering picture of us, but it shows our costumes nicely! ha)

Chase up to bat at his softball game!

HOME RUN! ...ok maybe not.. but he at least got to first! He was the pitcher anyway!

Our mini white pizzas! They were so delicious.. and EASY!

On Saturday, for Halloween we didn't really go and do anything.. so we stayed in and i made yummy baked apples with homemade carmel sauce! they were what you call.... delicious!

And the best way we celebrated the "day of the dead", our fishy died. Sorry, this is a bit nasty maybe.. but it had to be documented!
