Shout outs!!!

Since I haven't blogged in forever and a day, I decided it's time for a new one (getting sick of staring at the dinner picture! haha) Well not a whole lot's been happening. I wanted to do a quick shout out to one of my BFF's Sara aka Bubba...she's getting married in December and I couldn't be more excited for her! I thought I had a picture to post, but alas, I couldn't find it, so oh well. We grew up together on the swim team and totally brought comic relief to the team. example: at state championships one year we decided it'd be funny to trip ourselves on our way out of the locker room onto the pool deck in front of everyone, so we did. haha, don't worry I had on these neon green pj pants with hot pink fish so you could've seen it from a mile away. We were crazy but we sure had fun!
Also, another shout out to my mom who ran, well walked, the MARATHON! Which is something I could never do, I wouldn't even make it one mile. I get winded after like a minute of running! It'd be pretty cool if I could swim it...haha.
But Anyways, Happy Halloween! Don't eat too much candy or you'll end up like this poor little pumpkin man!

Let them eat cake!!

For more celebrating of our anniversary we made a yummy yummy candlelit dinner and for dessert we got to eat the famous cake from a year ago! We were both pretty scared to try it but it actually turned out pretty good. We both only had one bite, but that was about as adventuresome as we were feeling. A year in the freezer kinda makes me nervous about eating it! Marriage is fantastic!



My sweet Brandon is just so stinking cute!!!!

Happy Anniversary!!!

My sweet Brandon and I have been married a whole year!!! So hard to believe!! It was fun to reminisce about our wedding day and how awesome it was. Everything was perfect, nothing went wrong and it was by far the happiest day ever. To celebrate we went to California for a couple of days and just relaxed and saw my favorite broadway show "wicked". Hurray for anniversarys! Brandon spoiled me big time by buying me diamond earrings and a bouquet of my favorite flowers!

Our Home

Here are some pictures that I took of our lovely new home. Enjoy! (this is for you Syd! :)

SO EXCITING!

I have decided that I have the BEST Aunt and Uncle in the world. They had bought my grandma a really nice house down here in st. george a few years ago, and unfortunatly a couple of weeks ago she had to be moved into a assisted living center. After that my aunt and uncle didn't want to sell the house or rent it out to anyone they didn't know, so they were kind enough to offer it to me and Brandon to move into! They told us that we could pay the same amount of rent that we did at our apartment so not to get us too stressed about having to pay a higher payment! So we're are moving into a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house for the same price as our apartment! We feel so blessed and so grateful to them for giving us this awesome opportunity! We couldn't be more excited! Finally we can watch movies at the volume that we want and we can stomp on the ground and jump up and down without having to worry about making the neighbors mad! It'll be a lot more responsibility for us because of yard work, a few more payments, but I know that we can handle. Did I mention that our kitchen will be HUGE!!! And we have a GARAGE!!! As you can see...we are very excited (but I'm not very excited about the packing and acutally moving part, the mess drives me nuts!)

Wedding & Baptism

We went up north again this weekend for my cousin Megan's wedding. It was an awesome day (very hot though) She got married in the Salt Lake temple on the 31st. It was fun cause I've never been in the Salt Lake Temple, so it was a fun experience. She got married in the morning and my family went on a tour of the conference center in between the wedding and the luncheon. We'd never been in there before so it was a neat experience to go in and explore! Then on Saturday our nephew Jordan got baptized so we cruised on over there for that. Then we had to rush home on saturday night so we could get up early Sunday morning for my nieces baby blessing! Phew! Busy busy weekend!!!!
