</div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
Today I received some AMAZING news. I met with my advisor to fill out an application to go to school in the Winter of 2012. As we wrote down all of my classes on a graduation plan we both realized that I was going to be done with school in JULY! I seriously cannot tell you how big my smile was, for the following reasons:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
1. I thought I was going to be done with school in December<br />2. This is my last cold season in Rexburg<br />3. I will be graduating at the end of July, aka the most beautiful time of the year in Rexburg!<br />4. It is less than ONE year away</blockquote>

<br />
November 7th was not only great because of that. I usually forget important dates, but I remembered that November 7th of 2008 was the day that Jack asked me to marry him. It has been 3 years. CRAZY! I will save this story for another time. It is GOOD!<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Childless couples</b> in Rexburg usually have nothing besides a ward activity to do for Halloween. So I decided to do something about it. A week ago, we had a lovely <b>All Hallows' Eve banquet</b> with a couple of friends. The menu involved Bread Bowls, Salad, <a href="http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/shrimp-and-corn-chowder-with-fennel-recipe-00000000028079/index.html" target="_blank">Shrimp and Corn Chowder</a> and delicious desert made by my R2D2 friend Nicole. It was so much fun!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/hallow1.png?t=1320526626" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/hallow1.png?t=1320526626" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Nicole and Eric as R2D2 and Luke Skywalker, Ashley and Mark as the hot and rebellious Grease couple, Nathalie and Austin as Cleopatra and Quailman, Jack and I as Team Zissou from the Life Aquatic. I wish I could have invited a lot more couples, but our apartment is pretty small. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/hallow2.png?t=1320526470" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/hallow2.png?t=1320526470" /></a></div>
<br />
I had so much fun putting this together. Improvised banquet table and some decor. Also the cutest caramelized apple bites made by Nicole in the pictures above. Delicious!<br />
<br />
Can't wait for Halloween next year. I want to make this a tradition. I already have some costume ideas for next year.<br />
<br />
How was your Halloween? Did you dress up? What was your costume?<br />

<br />
Jack's band, Old Money, sadly had to split up since two of the members graduated and one moved away.<br />
<br />
Well, after gathering some talented young men. They were able to get a new band going. With a new name. No, not New Money, they are actually called <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Seminole-Roots/227537423977269" target="_blank">Seminole Roots</a></b>.<br />
<br />
This weekend they are going to be playing their first official show together, and not only that, they will be playing with super talented, cool band <a href="http://www.desertnoisesmusic.com/" target="_blank">Desert Noises </a>and one that I have not listened to yet <a href="http://www.myspace.com/lakeisland" target="_blank">Lake Island</a>.<br />
<br />
Here is a poster I put together for the show.<br />

<br />
Come come come. Come give me a hug, have a pie shake at Sammy's and enjoy some good music. AND last but not least, this show is a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=193726224037484" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">charity show</a>;<b> </b>for every shake you buy $1 dollar will be donated to <a href="http://www.neweyesfortheneedy.org/" target="_blank">New Eyes for the Needy</a>.<br />

And don't you lie to me, I bet you are one too. Did you know that 8 out of 10 people hate cats? And 4 out of those eight people are haters due to being allergic to cats and the other 4 because of Lucifer from Cinderella? ( I just made all of this up, so don't quote me).<br />
<br />
But I do believe that those two, truly were the reasons why I hated cats. Cat sitting <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2011/01/very-lucky-indeed.html">Lili</a> for 6 months made me realize that the reason why people usually hate cats (their personalities) is the reason why I love them (at least most of them). Well, let me introduce you to this little guy, and you might just change your mind:<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">MEET OLIVER</span></span></h3>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Oliver is the cutest thing you will ever meet. My parents found him in their backyard and we have all fallen in love.<br />
<br />
Don't worry, this blog won't turn into a cat blog. But since I don't have any kids I feel like I should/can brag about our first pet.<br />
<br />
What about you? Are you a cat hater, or lover?<br />

Visit to UT, and I will tell you why in an upcoming post. But also to visit my family and hang out with my best friend Rebeca and her Fiance. Really short trip but we had a lot of fun.<br />
<br />
Rebeca got us tickets for BYU's Homecoming game. My first BIG football game! Even though I don't understand much of what is going on, I could clearly tell that BYU was kicking San Jose's butt and the company was great.<br />

I loved the team spirit, all the songs and traditions! It reminded me of my soccer team's (COXA!) games that my dad used to take me to.<br />

School has started, just in case you were wondering why I am so INCONSISTENT with my blog. Well, I have a lot of things to share with you guys. And it seems like this semester I will have a little bit more time. :) Did I hear Nails Nails???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well for now I leave you with this funny/gross video of Jack trying out the Neti Pot, for those of you who don't know, it is meant to clean your nostrils. Jack broke his nose a while ago, and working construction was making it really hard for him to sleep/breathe with all the dirt in his nose and all.</div>

It has been a crazy week. What did I do for labor day? Well we started with a little shopping and as we were headed home we noticed a huge thing of smoke (top left) directly towards my in-laws place. So at night we evacuated to our dear friends' house in downtown. So it wasn't that fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The good news is the house is fine and our neighborhood is safe (for now). The bad news is the state of Texas is on fire (literally). There is fire everywhere and the drought is really bad. So many people have lost their homes and some even their lives. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

I was waiting until we got back to Rexburg and developed the disposable camera pictures to post about this, but I just can't wait anymore!!! So I will just use the pictures that I had in my little point and shoot. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When Jack and I were dating, we went on a trip to the <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2011/03/nails-nails_10.html">most beautiful place</a> I have ever been to. It was an incredible adventure, and I would say that this trip was a very important event in our dating history (two days without showering, zero makeup and 13 mile hikes later can be very defining in a relationship.)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well ever since then, we have been dreaming of the day that we would pay a visit to Havasupai, AZ again. NOT Havasu Lake.... Havasupai. They are two different places. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You gotta make your reservations ahead of time, we tried last year but we failed. Called too late, but this year we made it, and we went with some of our bestest friends. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are some of the very few pics I took at one of the many breathtaking waterfalls:</div>

I slept in a hammock the whole weekend and falling asleep to that sky FULL of stars (including shooting stars every 30 seconds) was just priceless. It was the best adventure, with the best people!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Everyone should include Havasupai in their MUST visit places before they die. Ready, GO!</div>

Friday we had some burgers for lunch and watched a Pro baseball game (Astros vs Giants) in the evening. Saturday we went to a Brazilian Steak House for lunch and attended a Pro soccer game (Dynamos vs. Real Salt Lake) at night. Both were really good games, but the soccer game hit home. It had been a while since I had been to a good soccer game. :)</div>

My little brother Kevin left on his <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2011/05/kevin-william.html">mission to Brazil</a>, two weeks ago. And I already miss him. One year, eleven months and 2 weeks to go. I love him so much, and saying goodbye for two years was harder than I thought it would be.<br />
<br />
Oh and the cute dog being disciplined? That's <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2010/04/meet-polo.html">Polo</a>.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So today I had the opportunity to get a haircut. After about 5 months. Eek! I have been letting my hair grow out. But truly, I love short hair. About two years ago, I cut it really short (picture above) but unlike <a href="http://www.cowboysandcadillacsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/emma-watson-short-hair-03.jpg">this</a> lady and <a href="http://www.demeterclarc.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2010/09/TWIGGY-SURPRISE-777x1024.jpg">this</a> lady I do not think I can pull it off very well. And honestly I don't know what haircut can be pulled off when you have a jawline similar to <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrPqEg0zVQG58qCRiGc6Tuz01Zf0pvHmRS017gyOhW3QoKLEsJ1DB7j7U2h4Jz7iwKZB5DNVTCmy0eOjEEo0rrqJXoJdUptryVP4U5DPfUjdCpsndntzpHW5EPXQVbekUH8JEjsGcDfC1N/s1600/Brad-Pitt-1.jpg">this</a> guy's (he can pull it off because he is a man).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well while I figure out the perfect cut or build the courage to cut it like <a href="http://shorthairstylescuts.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Michelle-Williams-short-hairstyle.jpg">this</a>, it will keep growing and I will keep asking for "just a trim".</div>

I am a little scared to post again since it has been so long (almost 3 months, which in the blogging world probably means 3 YEARS!). And look at blogger... since when has it looked this slick and fancy?<br />
<br />
Well I decided that a nice way to ease into the blogging world would be to participate in this little thing called the August Break, I wanted to start August 1st but Jack and I are in the process of moving for the third time this year (I advise you to never do that. EVER).<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
My summer officially started yesterday, so now I can sit and enjoy my little blog that I missed so much. I will probably post one picture a day until September 15th. That way I feel like I can update my blog and still participate in the fun August break.<br />
<br />
But here is my first picture:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I think most of you have seen this picture, it was taken at Nicole and Eric's wedding in Sacramento (may 14th). Jack had just started wearing glasses and I just think he looks oh so classy in a bow tie. :)<br />

Well, my little brother Kevin is going to serve a <a href="http://mormon.org/missionary-work/">two year mission for our church</a> and so we have been trying to spend some time together before he leaves.<br />

Sorry I have completely abandoned this blog for 4 weeks now. But I promise you it is for a good cause: school, work and my husband. Well I have a little list here on a post-it note of all of the things that I NEED to tell you and post about. So stay tuned and every time I want to ignore my home work I will check one of those off my list.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">But for today I will catch you up on my nails. :) This nail polish is called Cappuccino by Risqué (again!) Like I have <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2011/02/nails-nails.html">mentioned</a> before, I love nude colors on my nails and I think they are a <a href="http://writingrainbows.blogspot.com/2011/04/top-five-friday-featuring-jenny-thomas.html">must</a> in your collection. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails16.jpg?t=1306362345" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" id=":current_picnik_image" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-drY-gpaxwX0/Td2CLKEKM8I/AAAAAAAAA2M/izSP6aXipdo/s1600/14242810251_qW7KT.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">In the picture above I have two coats of Cappuccino on. The other reason why I love nude colors is because when you are leading a busy life like I am right now, the mistakes on the application and the chipping is not as noticeable! ;)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">So many things to post about! :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />

Can you tell I fell asleep shortly after I painted my nails? </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So Jack and I came down with this ungodly Stomach Flu. Apparently it's the latest trend around Rexburg. I have been in bed with no strength in my body for thirty something hours. And I've lost 4 Lbs. Thank goodness this can't be spread via Web. Or else I wouldn't be blogging. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well this week I am wearing this beautiful blue! Me and my little sister swapped some nail polish when I went down to UT and this is one of the colors I got. It is a Brazilian nail polish called Azul Hortênsia by Risqué. Which literally translated it is called Hydrangea Blue. I disagree it really is cobalt blue. Lovely. </div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails15.png?t=1303929724" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails15.png?t=1303929724" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On the pictures above I am wearing 2 coats of nail polish, and like I said, it is not as glossy as it should be because I fell asleep shortly after. Sorry! I love how electric this color is.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well, word of advice, start taking your Airborne and Vitamin C. I don't wish this flu upon anyone. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Life has been quite boring without her around. She asked me to do a guest post on her blog about Nail Polish so I did the <b>{Top 5 Must Have Nail Polish}</b> according to me! </div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">Check <a href="http://writingrainbows.blogspot.com/2011/04/top-five-friday-featuring-jenny-thomas.html">CHECK</a> it out! </div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">And this week's nail polish is a Glittery one! Bling, bling. I was inspired by <a href="http://joannagoddard.blogspot.com/2011/04/perfect-nails.html">this</a>, and when I realized I had almost that exact same color in my collection I decided to go for it. It's called <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Gold by Love & Beauty (Forever 21)</span>.<a href="http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog_name=FOREVER21&category_name=beauty_nails&product_id=1067114195&Page=1&pgcount=25"> Here</a> is the closest one I could find on their website.</div></div><div><br />

</div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">On these pictures I have <b>3 coats</b> of glitter polish. You can put less but I wanted them to look like the picture on the link above. Also one thing that I love about this nail polish is that even with 3 coats on, the surface does not get rough. It feels as if there was a matte finish on it. :) But I have found that the more layers you put on the easier it is to chip. But It will last you a good five days! </div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

This color is the closest to the turquoise I wanted. And it is a tricky one too because it can look a lot different depending on the type of lighting. So click <a href="http://www.google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&biw=1279&bih=680&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=for+audrey+china+glaze&aq=0&aqi=g3&aql=&oq=for+audrey+china+">here</a> to see all of the results on Google. Haha But it lasted for a long time! So pretty durable. It does have a very creamy consistency. </div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well I will definitely be back with pictures of our weekend! I hope you like this color as much as I did. :)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

But ever since I started <a href="http://jacknjenny.blogspot.com/2011/02/not-giving-up.html">that little 5K program</a> I have learned to love it. <a href="http://writingrainbows.blogspot.com/">Ashley</a> and I run 3 times a week and sometimes I just want to get my running shoes on and go even if it is not a Monday, Wednesday or a Friday. We are beginning week 5 this week! Only 4 more to go! :)<br />

I did it again. Belated nails! But I have an excuse. After spending a while painting my nails with what appeared to be a fine nail polish I realized after 4 hours of drying time that it must have been expired for it wouldn't dry.<br />
<br />
So I had to wait till the next time I had more time. Here they are: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/OPI-BRIGHTS-No-Room-Blues/dp/B002A24DAE"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">No Room for the Blues by OPI</span></b></a>. Lovely isn't it? There really isn't any room for the blues. Every time I look at my nails it makes me happy. Bright and cheerful!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails12.png?t=1301112190" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails12.png?t=1301112190" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">In the picture above I have <b>two coats</b> of No Room for the Blues. Like I mentioned before. What I like about OPI is how big the brush is. And I also enjoy the creaminess of the lacquer, it is a little harder to manage but it covers really well. I should invest in more <b>OPI</b>! It did start to chip a little prematurely but it might be because I am a little <b>careless</b> sometimes.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I usually don't follow up with <b>chain games</b>. I think there has been one on facebook I did, and of course so many when I was in 7th grade. Haha I was particularly nervous about this one.

</div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well at the beginning of this year when I had a goal of writing on my <b>journal</b>, I decided I was going to start writing on cursive again because:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">1. I see less and less people writing in cursive, it seems like <b>cursive is dying</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. Because I write <b>much faster</b> that way</div><div style="text-align: justify;">3. Because I have always disliked my cursive writing and I want to <b>perfect it</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

It has been a whole week and I haven't posted. And I was a little sad for not posting a much love monday post. I promise you one next week.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So last year I asked my friend <a href="http://brynnemorley.blogspot.com/">Brynne</a> what books she liked and she said that one of her favorites was definitely <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre</span>. I trust her so I decided to read it. It was a little hard for me considering that English is my second language and I am a slow reader. But it was worth it. What a beautifully written book! I always had a highlighter with me because there were so many good quotes in it. READ IT!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Well I finished the book today and it so happened to be that my nails this week were the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">same color</span> as my book. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/china-glaze/SBS-606348,default,pd.html">Tempest by China Glaze</a> + <a href="http://www.amazon.com/essie-colour-Polish-Matte-About/dp/B002MFHZ0E">Matte About you by Essie</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails11.png?t=1300324133" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i846.photobucket.com/albums/ab27/jenny_thomas/Nails11.png?t=1300324133" /></a></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Thank you <a href="http://jarashlund.blogspot.com/">Ashley L</a> for the Nail Polish!</td></tr>
</tbody></table><div style="text-align: justify;">I am not a huge fan of iridescent nail polish on my nails (I think the ridges make it look weird), so I put a layer of matte finish on top of the purple color. I love the way it looks. I have three really thin coats of Tempest on the pictures above and one of Matte about you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now back to Jane Eyre! Did you know that the new movie came out this last Friday? I am so excited for it! (And it got 83% on <a href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/jane_eyre_2011/">Rotten Tomatoes</a>!)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Trailer time!</span><br />
