First, a Halloween update. Jordan and I decided to go as Astrid and Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon. It was a blast! We of course couldn't find the costumes anywhere, so I ended up making them. I was quite impressed with how Jordan's turned out, my needed a little more time and work. We also decided that long hair isn't Jordan's best look. But we still had a blast! halloween is always a fun time for us. 2 years ago on October 25th Jordan and I had our first date, and 1 year ago on October 25th Jordan proposed, October holds a lot of memories for us :)
On November 5th and 6th I performed my senior project. It was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do, and I'm so relieved I made it through. My performance consisted of me dancing at high energy by myself for 5 minutes and 30 seconds, which is a really long time for a solo! A reasonable length for a solo is probably 2-2 1/2 minutes. On top of this extremely physically demanding dance, I also got sick the week of the performance. I had lots of doubt and I came so close to just giving up. The last thing I wanted to do was make a fool of myself on stage for my senior project. But Jordan being the wonderful supportive husband he is agreed to give me a blessing, this made all the difference. By performance day I was able to do the dance, not even close to perfect, but good enough to accept. I'm so grateful for priesthood blessings. I've learned to never give up on something until you've put it completely into the Lord's hands. The weekend of the performance was also very fun because my family came into town! I love them and I had a blast with them!

Our apartment is officially decked out for Christmas! Jordan and I bought our first Christmas tree and Christmas decorations. It was so much fun! and we can't wait for Christmas.
