Hello there! Sorry for the break I'm sure everyone is sick of looking at the pumpkin. Things have been crazy busy for us lately with nothing going on that would warrant a photo opt. Preston has started his schooling to become a commercial helicopter pilot and is doing fantastic! He is also still running our business and refereeing basketball, it's a lot on his plate and I am very grateful for such an amazing husband! I do have to tell everyone that the Young Women that I coach went undefeated the whole season of Volleyball and we just went to region and won 2nd place! I love my calling SO much and I would do anything for the girls, they are just amazing! I am still the manager at Anytime Fitness and trying to gear up for a figure competition in the Spring. We are super excited for Thanksgiving and for all the fun the holidays are going to bring. Sorry we aren't that exciting here in the Jugler home just working to the point of exhaustion, but I promise as the photo opts happen to download my pics for all of you to see.

SPOOKTACULAR

HaPpY HaLlOwEen!!! I really enjoy this time of year when the air is crisp and ghosts and goblins run amuck. I had a member at the gym I manage ask me a question today that made me think. She asked me how in the world I could enjoy Halloween without eating any candy (for those of you that don't know I haven't eaten sugar for 2 years) or any other tasty fall treats? My response was simple, "Well, the fact that I wont be eating any candy doesn't change the feeling in the air." This response didn't seem to be the answer she was wanting to hear because she said that not being able to enjoy the "sweets" takes away the fun of the holiday. Her question made me think about why I enjoy this time of year. I started to remember Halloween growing up when the biggest crisis in my life was what I was going to be for Halloween and all the fun memories of trick-or-treating in my grandparents old neighborhood (the one where you got the KING size candy bars). So, after going down memory lane I realized that none of those memories were about the "treats" they were about the feeling in the air and about my family. I enjoy the holiday by making memories that last forever and being grateful for the leaves that change color and fall to the ground, spook allies, pumpkin mazes, babies in costumes, and a million other great things! I hope all of you make sure it is about the memories and not the goodies. Happy Halloween!

Helicopter School

Announcement time! No we aren't pregnant but we have even better news! Preston was accepted into Helicopter School!!! His professional flight instruction is through a school located here at the Ogden airport called High Desert Helicopters. He starts school this Monday which will consist of ground school 2 times a week and flying lessons everyday. Our goal is for him to graduate in 6 months. I am so proud of him it is going to take a lot of work and dedication but no one is better suited for the job!
Just a side note, helicopter pilots are in VERY high demand all over the country right now because all the pilots that are in the field are old war vets. that are retiring. There are hundreds of jobs all over the country for us to chose from.
We are just so grateful and excited for this opportunity!!! And I will keep you posted on his progress.

Thriller

My family is centered around traditions, pretty much base our lives around them. Well one of the newer traditions is for a bunch of us cousins to get together and go see Thriller put on by The Odyssey Dance Theater. We go to dinner and then go and watch the show. It is such a blessing to have such a tight extended family and Saturday night was a blast with the girls!


Posing for a picture with a couple of our zombie friends!

Um...Correction Please!

So, on my last post I stated that my sister is expecting to add another boy to her family and due to her always being right about the sex of all her babies, I happily went along with the whole having another boy thing. Well, today to every one's surprise (especially hers) she is actually going to have another GIRL!!! Sorry Heather I guess knowing 3 out of four isn't bad, right?

Nieces, Nephews and Kisses oh My!

I just had to gush about my sisters wonderful family. These are some of her family photos and I just died when I saw them! If anything makes me want to be a mom more it's seeing my sister and her adorable little family. My sister is one of the best moms I know, she home schools her kids and takes care of them while her hubby Nash is going to school to be a Physical Therapist. I just wanted to show off how cute they are and let them know how much I admire and love them!

Side Note: I say nephew's because my sister is expecting another baby and is sure that it's a boy!

FALL

I love Autumn, it is my favorite time of year. The leaves start to change color to vibrant reds, oranges and yellows, the air becomes crisp and cool and I enjoy the smell in the air that signifies a change from the unbearable heat. It becomes so pretty here as the season changes and the whole landscape changes in a matter of days. It is the best time to take breathtaking photos. I love pumpkins and corn mazes and Halloween.I can finally wear comfy jeans and cozy sweaters, at night I can curl up in blankets and am able to cuddle with my honey without heatstroke! Yes Autumn is my favorite time of year!

August Full of Fun!!!

See I kept my promise and did a post and a long post at that! So, like I said earlier I really didn't do anything this summer, everything that happened was in the month of August!!! We had all the birthdays in August...Me on the 4th, Anya the 14th, Preston the 20th, Heather the 21st, Mom the 24th. So it was the typical Christmas in August. We also went to the family reunion at Bear Lake, and then there were weddings and parties and dinners.
Now that it is starting to cool down and my hours have changed at the gym I am hoping that more fun is awaiting us! So here are all my pictures from our summer full of fun.



Ashley's Wedding!!!
My best friend Ashley got married on August 29th and I was able to go to her sealing in the Logan temple. She was so gorgeous and Brett was so handsome. It was a perfect day for them and the reception was just breath taking! This is just a shout out to my very bestest SAAB and to say how incredibly happy I am that she has found her eternal love and is happy. No one deserves it more! Love ya Ashley!!!




Here are some cute pictures from mom's birthday dinner at The Oak's Preston and I took her out to dinner since dad was in Isreal.




Bear Lake!!!
My favortie place in the world is Bear Lake! Every summer we have a huge family reunion and get to spend time with all the cousins and family while we are camping and sunning ourselves down on the beach. This was the only vacation I was able to take this summer so we went longer than usual and spent 6 days camping. It was so fun we got to play with tatter tots all day long and hang out with the family. We had a BLAST!


Anya and Emory being cute in front of Minitonka Cave, we went there for Anya's birthday which was on August 14th!


Mom and the three cutest tatter tots I have ever seen!

This is a picture of the floating train we made by having all the adults grab a kid and then hook onto eachother! As you can see I was the watchman and also the person to pull the train around.


Ok this is a funny story. At the begining of our camping trip I was playing on one of my mom's razor(skooter) bikes...well long story short I fell very dramatically and took and beating and gashed open my hand and banged up my knee. Well, when my little tatter tot Emory saw that aunt Tara had cool bandaids he wanted one too! So the next thing we know he was out in the middle of the road scrapping his hand on the concret to make himself bleed so he could get a cool bandaid like me! So this is a picture of Emory and I with our way cool skull with lighting coming out of his eyes matching bandaids!!! I love that kid!




24th Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday to ME! On August 4th I turned 24! Preston bought me a huge bouqute of flowers made out of fruit (it was yummy), and my parents took Preston and I to a James Taylor concert, it was so much fun to sit out side and listen to the music.
