VeGaS!

Last weekend Jade and I went to our first show in Las Vegas. Criss Angel Believe! It was so AMAZING! We have been watching his show MindFreak on A&E for the last few years and we finally spent the money to go see his show. I am so glad that we went, it was the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life! I love Criss Angel! :)

Here are some of the Cirque De Soleil characters that were part of the show. They did some really awesome dances! 

After the show we spent the rest of the weekend with my sister in-law Ashlee, her husband Elliott, and their two boys Gavin and Grady. Gavin and Jade are so cute together. They both love each other so much :) We always love staying with Ashlee and her family, they are the best! 

My Etsy

So I have been quite busy the last month with school starting and my new found hobby. While I was home in Wyoming I finally learned how to sew from my Mom. I learned how to make these adorable purses and started my own Etsy site. Below is a picture of all the bags I have made so far, but I would love for you to check out my site and you can see them better from there. It is http://www.modernessence.etsy.com 

Our Trip to Yellowstone

At the beginning of August Jade and I decided to go home for a few weeks before school started. We actually stayed pretty busy while we were there. The first week we were home my Dad's side of the family came up to visit and we all took a trip to Yellowstone. Im pretty sure we saw everything there was to see, and it was a lot of fun once I stopped worrying about being attacked by a bear.  Here are some pictures of our trip.
