Turkey Day with the family...

Josh and I spent our Thanksgiving in California! We had a great time and wish we could have stayed longer. We loved the cool weather, colorful trees, and of course the time spent with family! We are so grateful we were able to go and enjoy the holiday with those close to us!

Enjoying our Thanksgiving feast!

Home Sweet Home

Let me take you on a tour of our apartment...some of our family and friends have asked for pictures of our home so I figured the easiest way to show everyone was to post some pictures. We live in a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment in North Miami, our apt sits right on the water which connects to the intercoastal waterways. It's a beautiful area, and a good, safe area which is so important here in Miami! It's small but perfect for us....of course we welcome any friends or family who would like to come out and experience this crazy place!! Plus, we're only about 1-2 miles from the beautiful bright blue waters of the Atlantic! You should all come and play!



This is what you see when you walk in the front door...(the speakers came out of the car I totaled in Sept and no longer sit there!)

Looking at the same area from across the room...our dining area.


Kitchen (duh)


The family room-from the kitchen


The family room at a different angle-from the dining area.



This is our extra bedroom...we use it as an office and a second bedroom if people come to visit and of course an inside storage for our bikes so they don't rust outside on the balcony!

Our new header...

Isn't our new header so fun??? Our good friend Jamie designed it for us! She's awesome with computer stuff-I think I should take some lessons from her! Well I've had a few hectic weeks with school and haven't had a chance to do much other than study. Anyway, I thought I should post some pics of Halloween before Thanksgiving comes (since it's less than a week away!). So our ward had a "trunk or treat" that we made into a carnival because it was moved inside due to a threatening tropical storm. We had a lot of fun! Hope you enjoy!

I was a mad doctor that had "body parts" for sale. The kids had to put their hands in different holes to try to find the candy-but most of the time they got brains, guts, or eyeballs!

Our friends, the Recaldes, talked Josh into being Captain Moroni! He loved wearing a "dress"! He held arm-wrestling competitions with the kids and missionaries!


Josh doused me in blood and glued a gunshot wound to my face. He's also the one who did all the hard work for our "trunk" that turned out to be a table due to the storm.

Haha! This was at the youth mult-stake Halloween dance. We went to chaparone as well as drive most of the youth to the dance. I was a big fat mechanic and Josh was "Josh Clark"-so original!

Hello Everyone!!

We finally joined the blog network, and I (Lindsey) am so much more excited about it than Josh is! It's so great to be a girl huh? So I'm very new at this so it might take me a bit to get this up and running, please be patient with me!! The following are a few pictures from our first year in Florida, and also our first year of marriage!

Visiting Animal Kingdom, Disney World in August-also our 1st anniversary!

I found a starfish when I was kyaking with our stake during youth conference on Key Biscayne.

This one is from way back when we first got here, we went to a Miami Hurricane Game! It was so blasted hot and humid we were dripping!


We love going out to the Everglades and hunting for alligators. We saw this little guy while we were out biking at Shark Valley in the Everglades National Park.



Josh kyaking in the intercoastal waterways-just about a mile or so from our home.



We went to Key West for a day trip over Memorial Day weekend-it was crazy!!
