Brent's Wedding and Family Ski Trip!

Hey There!

School is done, my brother is married, and everyone has sore muscles!

This weekend was Brent and Brandi's Wedding. It was beautiful! I can not believe how well Brandi and her mom pulled off the purple, orange, lime green color scheme. They both just looked really happy all day:) Congratulations to them! It was so much fun seeing aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents! I also enjoyed being able to tell an embarrassing story about Brent at the Luncheon, good times.

My family decided to stay a couple extra days to spend some time with me and Brett.

On Sunday my family as well as my Uncle Rob and his family came to church with us. It was fun having all the kids around and after church I had my first opportunity to feed 13 people! (I've fed 7 before, but this was a whole other level) I think it went pretty well despite the large number of people in our little apartment. We then went and played games over at the clubhouse, a little more elbow room over there!

I'd also like to mention that my husband thought it would be a good idea to let the kids play with racquetballs in our apartment. How can you hand a ball to a 3, 5, and 7 year old who have been sitting still at church for three hours and have the balls not to be thrown at something breakable! Sigh, someday he'll learn...

Yesterday we wanted to go skiing at Kelly's Canyon, but (believe it or not) there was not enough snow. We decided then to drive the extra hour and a half to go ski at Targhee in Wyoming. Those are some great slopes! Brett was brave enough to go with my Dad and little brother Craig to the top of the mountain and they got some beautiful pictures. Pictures that were totally worth the sore calve muscles!

Today has been a lot more low key, we all went bowling this morning (Doug- my youngest brother- is a pro bowler!) and had a lot of fun there. In not too long we are going to go see Sherlock Holmes 2. They will head back tomorrow and there is snow in the forecast so we will keep their safe travel in our prayers!

Have a Merry Christmas Everyone!

Work party and finals week!

Hello!

This week was a busy one, not only are we coming up on finals week we went to Brett's work party, my cousins birthday party, and made lots of Christmas cookies!

We are very excited to be seeing family this next weekend! My older brother is getting married on Saturday, we are very excited for them and look forward to helping out with what we can. (We are also excited because we will be finished with this semester at that point.)

Brett's work party on Tuesday was a lot of fun. it was at Fat Cats (formerly known as the Rex) and we got to bowl, play mini golf, and play pool for free. They also had lots of pizza which made Brett super happy :) They also did drawings for free stuff throughout the night! Believe it or not: Brett won! He won a Picnic Table! We have NO Idea what we are going to do with it, but its always nice to win :)

Hope everyone has a great week, see some of you soon!

And I said Yes!!

Hello!

A year ago today my husband got down on one knee in the snow and asked me to marry him :)

Here's the story...

Me and Brett met at a game night at my apartment. We hit it off right away! It didn't take long before we were seeing each other every day.

On the night he asked me to marry him I was completely clueless to what was going on! We went to see the movie Tangled and then ate this really greasy cheesy pizza while playing a couple games of bowling. Afterwards we stopped by Brett's apartment to get hims some "advil"- he was really getting the ring.

He thought that I was suspicious so we drove around looking at Christmas lights for a while and then we went to Smith Park. Smith Park is where we would always go when it was warmer to sit on the bleachers and talk, it is also where we had our first kiss. We walked around the park a couple times and then he took me over to the bleacher where we had our first kiss. He said that he just wanted to give me my Christmas present early. He got down on one knee in the snow and asked me if I would Marry him... and I said Yes!

It's amazing to me that that was an entire year ago! I still think that I am the lucky one!

Arthur Christmas

Hello!

Well, the temperatures are steadily dropping here in Rexburg (as I'm sure they are everywhere else too). The fifteen minute walk from Campus to the "Free Parking Lot" is getting harder and harder, but only 2 more weeks of classes!

We have a lot going on this month! My brother's wedding, skiing with my parents, Christmas, a trip to Honeyville. Super exciting!

This week we went and Saw Arthur Christmas- very cute! Brett referred to it as "a great way to start off the Christmas season". However, we are not sure that the Justin Beiber music video before the movie was completely necessary.

Yesterday was the Ward Christmas Party which was a lot of fun, we laughed because every child that went to sit on Santa's lap cried. Felt a little bad for Santa, but it was cute!

Have a great week!
