Dear Jacob,

I have been on your side from the beginning. And although I dont know the outcome because I still havent finished Breaking Dawn because the part Im at is so dumb I cant move past it, you have for sure won in my book.

This movie looks a million times better than the first one and I am counting down the days until I see it (exept I dont have time to it until next week).

Love Sarah

PS-you're hot.

Our Halloween lasted for about a week this year....

The Monday before Halloween we had a family party with Alan's side of the family. I have to thank Alan's mom for helping us throw together a costume last minute--we had zero time to find anything this year so of course Becky came to the rescue! She put us together costumes for Michael and Latoya Jackson! Al secretly idols MJ so I know he was loving every second of being him.

Maddie, me, Al and Al's mom, Becky.

Al's sister Maddie was the CUTEST wonderwoman-her mom made the entire costume from scratch of course, Becky's amazing!

Me and my gorgeous sister-in-law

My work celebrated Halloween that Friday and it was probably the most fun and funniest day of work I'll ever have! Everyone got so into it and no one really worked that day. We had a huge Spaghetti Factory lunch, tons of candy and lots of trick-or-treaters. I was laughing the whole day!

Some office girls
I love his Buddy The Elf costume, it was perfect and he was acting like Buddy all day!

Oh Brett! Funniest costume ever!
Me and my boss Bill in his real army attire--love him.

That night Megan and Annie had their annual Halloween party. Everyone's costumes were hilarious as usual and Im pretty sure we were all delirious by the end of the night from playing way too much Mafia!

Me and Al as Latoya and MJ again, Im thinking that I look more like a 50 year old who goes tanning too much??

Ya, definitely a 50 year old who tans too much.

The whole group!

Thanks Meg and Annie for pulling it off once again!

benj & rachel's wedding

My big brother Ben got married on 10.24.09 and I couldn't be happier for him and Rachel. They really do make the perfect pair and I am so happy that they found each other. Rachel is so darling, she is the nicest, most free-spirited person I have ever met and she is so good for Ben.

The night before the big day they had a wedding dinner at The Lion House. It was so fun getting together with all of our friends and family to celebrate and reminisce. Not to mention how great the food was, Im pretty sure I ate the whole basket of rolls myself!

The cute couple!

Bagley Girls

Meg and Jon...next Bagley wedding??

Buddy giving a little speech as the best man.

My cutest dad giving the best speech/advice I have ever heard, I really wish I would have recorded it. It was SO cute, Al better have been listening very carefully!

The funnest part of the night was hanging out with the Bagley cousins! I dont get to see them too often (minus the blogging world) so it was fun staying late, talking and singing songs like old times.

Benj at the piano playing all the Grandpa Jiggs classics.

Benji & Rachel

Mr. & Mrs. Bagley!

Bagley siblings....not sure what setting my camera was on for this one??

Love the gorgeous Draper Temple.

Mom & Dad

All the Bagley girls with Elaine Dalton and some of my mom's fellow Young Women Board members.

Congrats Benj and Rach, I couldnt be more happy for you, love ya!
