so today is the first day of october, time is flying by! we have been married almost TWO months...scary! (hehe). nothing new is really going on here. just school, work, sleep and repeat.
today we met my dad halfway from muscatine to pick up the washer/dryer, and lawnmower from my aunt and uncle, the dishwasher we bought and the powerwasher we're borrowing from my parents. we had to drive the box truck up there, that was quite an adventure!
it's starting to get chilly here and the leaves are looking beautiful! fall is my favorite season because of the cool weather and the scenery. next weekend adam goes to indianapolis for an electrical class and i will be heading to cedar falls, ia (UNI) for their homecoming.. can't wait!! :D
anyways, tonight we are going to my friend clarissa's for dinner then we get to go grocery shopping.. (yay.. not!!!!) have a good night everyone!!

is it summer yet?
School is officially in gear, almost a month in already! Already hating my classes and teachers (UGH!), basically all of my teachers feel the need to give me so much homework that I don't have time for any of my other classes I'm taking which has been constantly stressing me out!! I'm ready for a long break again!
I started back at Home Depot this last Tuesday, asking to only work 20 or so hours a week, but guess who is getting close to THIRTY.. yeah, not too thrilled about it! I will need to be talking to them because school is definitely my priority right now. Not much has changed at work, still the same negative people and crude talking customers who have nothing to do with their time other than to come in and harass/hit on me. GAG! I stopped wearing my ring to work because I definitely don't want to get shot up at the Depot, LOL!
School has been basically kickin' my butt but besides that Adam has gotten back into his computer games (BOO!) and has been working a lot. Football has started up so he's going pretty nuts about the Ram's...can't wait for tomorrow's game..not hahah!
Adam has his Electrical class in Indiana on Oct. 8th-9th and if I'm lucky enough to get off work, I will be heading up to UNI for their Homecoming (I hope I can!!!!). I have also been extremely addicted to this website called PINTEREST. Ahhh!! It has given me so many fantastic recipes, gift ideas, ideas for when we have kids and decorating ideas! I can't wait to get started on some fun project this weekend :)
Well, I should probably get going to bed soon, tomorrow is Monday. EW!
Have a good one everyone! :)

it's been awhile..
ok, it's definitely been a long time since i've done this whole blogging thing.. lol. so much has happened since my last post. i am now MRS. dyall and we are so happy! we got married on august 6th, 2011. our parents could not have done a more fabulous job on our wedding, it was perfect and so much fun! a few days after we got married, we headed down to texas to fly to hawaii. our gift from tim was a 6-day stay in kauai, hawaii... let me just say...we LOVEEEDDD it! adam still gets sad when he sees something that reminds him of hawaii. (cuz he misses it so much- he just said)...we think it would be fun to live there, even if we have to be beach bums ;) we (emily) took about 700+ pictures (adam was maybe took 10 ha!)
there were so many wonderful fruit stands on the side of the road where we stopped and got some fresh mango, pineapple, coconut, star-fruit, drank fresh coconut milk, and papaya. i would say our favorite was definitely the fresh mango, it had a different kind of tartness and it was soo delicious! we made it around the entire island on our vacation!! some of the things we did besides swimming and hanging at the beach included a lua'u at the grand hyatt hotel that was near our condo in poipu.
the next activity was ziplining through the mountains (which happens to be the wettest place on earth) and it was next to where tropic thunder was filmed.. it had 7 different lines and it was scary but the views were amazing!
next we took a boat tour along the coast of Na Poli.. this part of the coast can't be driven around and we got to see where some of pirates of the caribbean, indiana jones, jurassic park, and popeye movies were filmed. around our boat, we saw TONS of huge sea turtles, and spinning dolphins everywhere!!! our boat was small so we also got to go inside about 3 of the sea caves out there by the super white sandy beaches were...the water was like a teal-light blue and was gorgeous! there was a waterfall in front of one of the caves and they had the newleyweds sit on the front of the boat and they slowly "christened" us underneath it, leaving us soaking wet (it was pretty funny!) towards the end of our cruise, we got to jump out of the boat and go snorkeling by some sea turtles! i definitely started feeling sea sick towards the end because while we ate lunch, we started rocking and ugh it's the worst feeling ever! tim's condo was super amazing and had a GREAT ocean view!!
if you're friends with me on facebook, check out my albums! by far the best vacation of our entire lives and we DEFINITELY had island fever, and now we're looking at when we can go back! just a warning though, hawaii is EXPENSIVE!! soo.. we need to start saving for that soon :) anyways, a week later, we were back to reality with school starting and adam starting work again. i began my first year at UMSL (univ. of missouri-st. louis) as a junior.. it's definitely a huge campus and a lot to get used to but i think i'll be ok :) i also start back up at home depot this coming week as a cashier again. life is good with my hubby and i.
sorry this is such a long post, i will definitely become regular with this!
