The Price is Right!

And we won a NEEEEEEEEWWWWW CAR!
Well, actually we bought it, but the price really was right. We traded in good ol' flipper and so this car only cost us about $5700. It's an '03 Hyundai Elantra, MANUAL transmission! We had a couple of driving lessons, as I have never driven a stick before. I somehow managed to get myself to work on Saturday, though having the car die on a hill was an exceptionally scary experience. But, now that I'm more used to the car and more able to drive it, it has affectionately been named "Frank."
The luxurious leather interior!

We didn't have anyone to take a picture of us. So we did it. As you can see, I cut my hair as soon as we were done with wedding festivities a week after the wedding. (We had a second reception in Idaho, and I kept my hair long for that.) Bryan cut his hair too. He's realizing that it's getting cold though, so it may or may not stay that short! This is proof that I did indeed marry the right man. Prestigious Ice cream! Life doesn't get any better, I tell you. (Reed's is the dairy Bryan works at, hence the free ice cream.)
For Halloween, Reed's Dairy had a painted pumpkin contest. Bryan had to work, so I painted the pumpkin. Can you believe we didn't win?! Anyway, Bryan's boss gave us $20 just for entering the contest, so I guess it was worth it. :) I'll paint a pumpkin for $20 any day!

In other news, I have another calling! I'm now a nursery leader in the ward. Bry still has yet to receive a calling, though he did get his first home teaching list yesterday. Now in addition to playing for the ward choir, I'm playing for the choir singing in stake conference on December 9th. That's a lot of choir practice on Sunday. In stake conference we weren't originally doing any Christmas music. Don't worry, I took care of that. We're singing Mack Wilberg's "Away in a Manger", and a hymnplicity arrangement of "O Come, all ye Faithful." We're also singing "Come Unto Christ", by Sally DeFord. It's not exactly Christmas, but it's about Christ, and I LOVE that song. Fun fact of the day, this is the third choir I've accompanied for that song.

That's all we've got for this week, and maybe for a while! We don't plan on buying any more cars anytime soon, but we'll find something to write about. We love you all!
