I am having a hard time!!!

2010-12-20T00:30:00.000-08:00

So I was looking through my pictures today! Oh my gosh!!!! It is so depressing. My face is so round compared to what it used to be! I was hoping with this pregnancy I would only gain weight in my belly. WRONG! I am having a really hard time with this. I just want my body back! I want my baby here! I still have three months left in this pregnancy and it seems like a life time! I hate looking in the mirror sometimes! Is that so awful or what?? I know I am pregnant and its just part of the process but I dunno. I just hope I can lose it at a reasonable pace afterwords. Anyways, I was looking through all of our old posts and realized I never posted my bridals. So I thought in my sadness I would post pictures of how I used to look. Have myself a little pity party!!!! HA HA HA!

Sick of all the pictures yet! ha ha! Me also! I got extremely carried away! I really hope I can one day look like this again! Until then I suppose I will just have to learn patience! :(

Gender Reveal Party!

2010-12-15T23:42:00.000-08:00

OK! Sorry, I have been so busy and it is so hard to find time to write. I really need to make it more of a habit to write. My sister in-law (love you Kelli) always does books of her blog. I want to do that as a kind of scrapbook of each year. I just think it would be so fun and an easy way to keep memories! Hopefully I can make more time to write on here more often. Anyways.... We were so excited to find out if our baby was a boy or girl. We decided to have a gender reveal party and to make it more intense not even find out ourselves before hand. That day when we went to the doctor we asked him to write down the sex and put it in an envelope. Then we gave the envelope to one of the nurses and had her call my friend Anna. She was waiting to hear from the nurse and was going to make the filling for the cake either pink or blue according to the answer. We had everyone over for pizza and when everyone had eaten we cut the cake together!

The cake is decorated like a girl cake cause that all we had to decorate it with. We just improvised and I think it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself!

Pink inside! ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!

We are so excited you have absolutely no idea!! We have already bought a lot of adorable clothes. I am so excited to have a little girl to play with and dress up! I know AJ is very excited for his little girl to come. I really hope she is a daddy's girl. How could she not be with AJ as a dad?

The name I am pretty sure we have decided on is:

PRESLEY LYNN WEBB

March 24th will not come soon enough! We can't wait to see our little girl!

2010-08-10T23:01:00.000-07:00

DREAM HOME!

2010-06-08T21:35:00.000-07:00

We started looking at houses just to see what was on the market, maybe there would be something we would like! We found the cutest house ever!

There isn't a garage but we are sure we can easily build that on later.

This is the front room, we think we will do most of our entertaining in this room! We were thinking a leopard skin couch and a black leather love sac, maybe some nice black and white European photography. This room is the one that sold it for us for sure!

And at dinner time what better place to eat then right underneath this beautiful chandelier? We love the romantic flower pattern, we are trying to find a matching table cloth, keep your eyes peeled for us!

a projector on the ceiling and some surround sound will make this room the place to be! We are really hoping that couch comes with it, it makes the room! If not we found a nice tiger skin to put in front of the giraffe style fireplace. We can't wait to snuggle up and watch in our little home theater room!

This would be our bedroom, with a great view from both windows and that comfy carpet, how could you go wrong? Not to mention the wood paneling that gives it that outdoorsy feel!

There is a quick tour of our dream house! We are planning to make an offer soon, cross your fingers for us!!!

I saw this picture and thought it was really funny! Mind you I love Apple, I still think this is awesome!

What happens when you microwave a peep!?

2010-04-30T10:45:00.001-07:00

I know you are all thinking, what the what?!? But I am done with school for a whole week! Thats right you heard me a week! I turned in my last final yesterday and summer classes start on Wednesday! THANKS FOR THE BREAK!!!! So while I'm done I have extra room for weirdness in my brain, for the next 5 days that is. Anyways I was talking to Jenny, complaining that Jason was graduating today and I was eating peeps. I always open peeps when I get them and then eat them a couple of weeks later. I like when they are crunchy! Anyways she told me its funny to microwave them cause they expand. And then I started wondering if peeps will still expand if they are old or what would happen. I decided that it would be important to document this in case I discover a scientific anomaly having to do with old peeps and microwaves. So here are my findings. Pardon the camera work, it was done with my Palm Pre. Enjoy!

Sherwood!

2010-04-11T00:51:00.000-07:00

AJ and Justin love the band Sherwood! So obviously when they found out they were coming to concert to provo we bought tickets! (yes that is how much they love Sherwood.... they would go to Provo) I was excited when I found out it was going to be in a club setting because even though I don't know much of their music, concerts are usually fun in small intimate settings. Before the concert we met the boys at In and Out burger. Allie and I had a good talk on the way down and it made me feel a lot closer to her. Which I was really happy about! In and out was delicious though that was kinda a given. At the concert the opening act was amazing. So you think I would remember his name but sadly I don't. I seriously don't remember anything these days. Am I that old? I am only 21! I can't imagine what it will be like when I am 50. I really enjoyed him though. I wanted to buy his CD kind of and I probably should have. He kinda reminded me of John Mayer but he was just a local artist that I guess plays at that venue all the time! Sherwood definitely put on a good show. My favorite part had to be when they sang a cover of Party In The USA. It was hilarious. The lead singer of Sherwood was standing in the back during some of the other bands just hanging out. I kept telling the boys they should go get him to sign Justin's head! They wussed out! That would of been the best picture ever dang it! OH and one last thing I forgot. The lead singer of one of the other bands looked just like AJ's cousin Andy. It was sooo creepy!

The singer that looked like Andy.

The Drummer touched my shoulder!

I was completely exhausted in this picture if you can't tell.... I kept rubbing my face trying to wake up!

AJ's car hit 100000 miles on the way home.... we missed it by one mile dang it!

of course!

Mustache Bash!

2010-04-08T02:57:00.000-07:00

All I have to say is BEST PARTY EVER!.............. OK I lied that isn't all I have to say! First of all everyone looked ridiculous! Even AJ with his natural mustache though he argues that he looked fantastic. Sorry baby! For food we ate mustache shaped lollipops, mustache shaped cookies, deviled eggs with mustaches, and pizza with a peperoni mustache. We also ate pull and peel licorice in mustache shape and mountain dew cake! Which reminds me I need to get that recipe from Jenny cause OH MY GOSH! It was sooooo amazing! I made AJ eat it for breakfast cause it was tempting me! Brady brought the Wii over and we played Super Mario Brothers and Mario Kart (you know.... because the mustaches). It was a lot of fun even though Jason would always try to kill all of us in Super Mario Brothers (Note to Jason: We were all on the same team)! After playing the Wii for a while we played spoons... but instead of spoons..... you guessed it mustaches! It is actually a really fun game. I told AJ we should play it next time we go to our parents houses. Then we played Funglish, if you haven't played/ and or heard of this game you need to go buy it. I love it! AJ and I dominated even with Brady and Emily trying to mess with us. That is right bramily (see what I did there) bring it ...! All and all it was two words...... legend ......... Dairy ........... that's right LEGENDARY!

F.Y.I. (We have decided to make this an annual event...... please mark your calendars next year to grow a mustache in march.... No matter how ridiculous you look)

Oh yes and I forgot we also gave out some awesome prizes!

Jason and Jenny won most artistic. They got a giant poster of AJ! I am jealous.

Allie won best girl mustache and received the I love mustaches tote! Alton won most pathetic and he received mustache cling on things you put on the mirror.

Emily won hairiest mustache and got a sweet switchblade mustache comb. Brady won creepiest and received I love mustache undies. HA HA HA

AJ won best overall and got this awesome T shirt! We totally rigged it! ;) just kidding.

I was really sad I didn't get my camera out until the very end!

Uni-brow with my mustache suckers

We are kinda weirdos but hence the weird stuff by Denise and AJ!

Happy Birthday AJ!

2010-04-07T18:37:00.000-07:00

AJ you are everything I have ever wanted in a husband. My whole life I thought I would have to settle and my standards were too high. You are proof that you don't have to settle! You are my soul mate and I don't care how corny it sounds. You are mine, there is no other person on this earth that could make me this happy. I know with all my heart that heavenly father brought us together. We both had awful trials to go through before meeting each other but like you always say. I would go through all of those trials a million times over if it meant you were the reward. AJ you are so kind and loving. You never lose your temper and you always treat me with such respect. Not just anyone could make me feel this much like a princess. So far every day of our life together has been so amazing. I can't wait for all the new adventures and surprises we have waiting around the corner. Thank you for being the perfect husband. I love you! Happy Birthday sweet heart.!!!!!

P.S. (you are the biggest weirdo I have ever met :D )

Disney on Ice!

2010-04-05T20:20:00.000-07:00

AJ's family was nice enough to invite us with them to Disney on Ice! Even though we are childless we definitely enjoyed it! The look on Lincoln's face was priceless when the cars came out OH MY GOSH! I love spending time with his family. OK... So... I feel like such a dork admitting this but there were the cutest little flower hats that came on top of a bag of cotton candy and I wanted one sooo bad! I resisted though.. I was not going to spend ten bucks on a flower hat that I would never use and cotton candy that would make me fat! Luckily Kenny got one (much more practical for her) so I was able to get a picture in the hat! I was so happy! It's funny that a picture in a flower hat could make me so happy! ( I may have kinda talked kenny in to getting it though)

Two with the hat cause I loved it so much!

Kenny posing she is sooooo adorable.

Honeymoon!

2010-04-04T02:04:00.000-07:00

I realized I never posted anything about our honeymoon! What is wrong with me! We went to Cancun. Which is extremely different than I thought it was. I always picture mtv spring break when I think of Cancun. It was surprisingly a really relaxing nice getaway! Our hotel was GORGEOUS. They had the best Pina coladas ever (non-alcoholic of course). We limited ourselves to one a day but oh man I could of easily had ten a day! Our Balcony had a beautiful view of the beach and the best shower ever. It also had a baday.... kinda weird! We had so much fun. The only bummer thing is it was pretty cold when we were down there. We couldn't really lay out without freezing. It was weird though the water was still way warm. We could play in the water all day but laying out was not all that fun. One night it was raining and we decided to take a walk on the beach. It is one of my favorite memories. Sucking down Pina coladas and walking along the beach having randomly big waves soak our clothes. It was the best. OH YA and on our wedding night we stayed at the anniversary inn in the Swiss Family Robinson suite. The "waterfall" that went in to the jacuzzi tub was pretty funny. It was kinda fun to spend our first night married in a tree house bed I must say!

AJ hanging from the tree house!

AJ laying in our treehouse bed!

Me bein a dork as usual

Just arriving in Cancun

AJ Takes FOREVER putting on sunscreen! So I had to take a picture so I could remember.

These next few pictures are just of our beautiful hotel

Pina coladas on the beach!

poolside

Early morning going to inga pirca

This place was SOOO COOL. I have always wanted to go to Mayan ruins.

Littlest old woman ever!

xehlha! It was so gorgeous. We snorkled that whole channel and saw some super awesome fish! There was this Giant one that AJ followed around for about five mintues!

More pina coladas at xehlha! So funny story... when you come in to the park there are people with parrots and iguanas that you can get pictures with. So AJ and I get tons of pictures with them. The last picture AJ got with a bird on his head and one on his arm. At the beginning of the picture he felt something warm go down his back. Oh ya ....bird poop all the way down his back. He was freaking out and I couldn't walk with him to help him get cleaned off because I was hysterically laughing. I'm such a jerk.

After a few hours of snorkeling. See it was kinda overcast. That is pretty much how it was the whole time we were there. It was kinda cold.

Exploring the Trails.

You jump off that cliff in to the water right there. Then you can tube down that river. There was also a bike trail. It was way fun you could get goin pretty fast.

These animals were way weird looking and kinda freaky. They would make really high pitched sounds.

hammock lounging still at xehlha ..... I swear the best day ever!

hanging out around the city

Last day packin up!

picture from our balcony

view from our balcony!

We were sad to leave but excited to get back and really start our life together. Our plane ended up being five hours late and we missed our connecting flight and didn't have our bags!!!! That was the longest most exhausting day of my life. I am just glad I was stuck with AJ he made it way better. Now we are home and you know the rest. We are happier than we have ever been.

Memoirs of a Mustache

2010-03-27T08:00:00.000-07:00

Oh how accustomed I have become, to people looking at me like I'm scum.
The adventures and the stories will never be forgotten, that upper lip warmer cannot be boughten.
It is true the month is nearly passed, the misplaced eyebrow I've worn each day, will meet its last.
Tears will be shed for the little muzzy, that dot and dash we all love to see.
The soup strainer's days are numbered and few, and the massacre of the upper lip plumage shall be true.
But oh... the wondrous life that mouser has had, the people that face fungus has made so darn mad.
The changes on the world that old lip tickler has created. Alas this stache will soon be cremated!
In our hearts the nose neighbor will live on, whether fu manchu, walrus or as the chevron.
All enemies the lip patch does somehow thwart, and why can't each man a face hog sport?
So clean your clothes and give em some starch, and be ready to plant some lip spinach next March!
Although the flavor saver will end on this day, you have not seen the last of my tash I say!
"Long live the cookie duster" said with a sigh, next year we'll bring back the Magnum PI
So now its the end of this face furniture freestyle, with love and respect to that hairy lip pile.

Test drama!

2010-03-04T13:47:00.000-08:00

A few weeks ago I had scheduled my practical test for my esthetician license. I scheduled it for a Wednesday at 5 at night (so I thought) so I could take it after work that day! The night before AJ and I went over everything, to make sure I had all the little steps down, til about 12:30. I was so excited and nervous as I went over to the test center. As I pull up I noticed there are absolutely no cars in the parking lot. So of course I start to panic a little bit. I walked to the front and tried the door just to find it was locked! I was really early so I told myself they just haven't opened the center up yet. Starting to feel my anxiety bubbling up I hurry and pull out my phone to look up there website! After searching frantically for a number I could call with no success I logged in to look and see all the specifics of the test (date, time, place). I pulled up my schedule and find the test just to see it says I was absent! I look over at the date and the test was on Tuesday!!!!!! I thought I had scheduled it for Wednesday from the beginning! As I realize what has happened I start to cry and freak out in a mini panic attack. I was sure they wouldn't let me make it up for a month and I would have to pay another 90 dollars ( because that is what they make you do if you fail). I called AJ pretty much hysterical and explain what happened. Of course AJ being the amazing man that he is talks to me, calms me down and explains that everything will be alright we just need to deal with it! So I go back to our apartment and start deep cleaning.Trying to get my mind off of things until tommorow when I can call the headquarters and hopefully talk them into letting me take it sooner. Later that night my friend from school texts me to ask how I did! Embarrassed out of my mind I tell her the whole story and how I now have to wait a month! She then precedes to tell me she missed her first test cause of traffic. She explains that I will have to pay another 90 dollars but I can take the test as soon as possible! It still stinks that I have to pay the money but at least I can take the test next week! AJ being the positive bug he is told me it was a good thing cause now I have even more time to prepare! So I better pass with this extra time I gave myself! I am so grateful Heavenly father blessed me with such an amazing husband that knows just what to say and just how to make me feel better! So anyways everyone better wish me luck for next week! I hope I can get the date right this time!

Facial Hair and Dex

2010-02-25T15:02:00.000-08:00

Well Denise has been posting a lot so I thought maybe I'd help her out and update everyone on what I have been up to recently. The title of the post may seem random... but it isn't I promise I'll tie it all together as soon as I can.

Well this semester I decided to take only 3 classes rather than the 6 that I was originally signed up for, I did that so I could spend extra time with my wonderful wife. I also signed up for a couple of organizations on campus, one is called DEX and the other is PBL. Dex is the college version of DECA and PBL is the college version of FBLA. This last weekend we had a the DEX state competition and my friend Jason and I signed up for the web design team competition. We are working on a website for our senior project together and decided to finish it in time for the competition and submit it. We didn't get it done in time and so we turned in another site for the state competition. Our plan was that if we qualified for Nationals we would finish our other site and submit it at Nationals. To qualify for Nationals you had to place in the top 4.

Also at the competition is when DEX elects new leadership, Jason is the current VP of Technology for DEX and he graduates at the end of the semester, because I didn't take summer and only took a half load this semester I will be graduating next Spring so I still have another year of school and competitions etc. I decided to run for the position that Jason is in right now and just see how it works out.

I WON! I was however the only one who ran ;) but even still they could have voted no to me and they didn't so I still beat the alternative right? Also Jason and I presented our website at the conference and we won 1st place, one of the judges even left his contact information for us to contact him about a job once we finish school. It was pretty exciting! And that means we qualified for Nationals! So in April we will be flying out to Louisville to compete in the National DEX web design competition.

Ok now the facial hair, I haven't shaved since the wedding day, for a little while I was sporting a pretty thick beard but last night I trimmed it down to a goatee and mustache. I am doing this because Denise and I have planned to throw a little party at the end of March... Its a MUSTACHE PARTY!!! And its gonna be awesome! To prepare for such an event I wanted to get myself in prime mustache shape. And on Monday I will be shaving off the goatee and Mustache March will officially begin! Thats right Tom Selleck get ready to eat your heart out! Or just lick the mustache off your lip! I am super excited about the party, I think Denise is excited too because she started looking at mustache stuff for the party one day and was sending me all these awesome ideas! Its gonna rock!

Well here are some pictures really fast of me at the DEX competition, you'll notice the beard, I'm sure that we'll get some pictures up between now and the party and also pictures of the party. Its gonna be legen...

Wait for it!!!!

Wait For It!!!!

WAIT FOR IT!!!!

DARY!!!

Ok so here is UVU's Chapter

(The competition was at Weber thus the banner in the background)

Here is Jason and I waiting for the winners to be announced

And here we are on the podium after the winners were announced

More wedding pictures!

2010-02-20T23:26:00.000-08:00

As promised i am posting more wedding pictures! Just random ones I thought were adorable!

Cutting the cake

All the nieces and nephews!

Kenny had gotten in her pajamas and Heidi told her to not come downstairs without her dress on! The result: Kenny comes down with the dress over the top of her pajamas SOOOO FUNNY!

Kenny sue!

Lincoln poo!

Cute Chocolate on Tater Tots face!

Beautiful Ry! She is getting so freaking old!

O i love little delaney!

Ooo so cute little brothers!

So cute of both of them!

Such a beautiful picture!

Ok so turns out I just wanted to post a few pictures of my nieces and nephews! But can you blame me they are adorable! This obviously isn't all of the cute pictures or even a picture of every single one of them but my computer is taking forever to load! So I am giving up on posting all of them!

Wedding time!

2010-02-14T22:03:00.000-08:00

So mostly I was thinking instead of telling the story of my wedding I would just post some pictures and explain. All i can really say is it was the most wonderful day of my life. It was literally magical. Having AJ as my husband is better than a dream come true. I never imagined that such a perfect man would exist for me!

Kenny... The first one to give us a hug coming out of the temple!

AJ trying to keep our noses warm! It was freezing at the temple!

He looks better with the bouquet than I do!

Cute and Corny! Love it!

I like this one.

The back of my dress was my favorite!

By far my favorite picture! If you weren't at the wedding my shoes were purple converses that said bride! AJ's were black with red stitching that said groom. Justin, Brady, and Leroy all had black ones just like AJ that said groomsmen. The fathers also wore them! It was seriously one of my favorite details.

I am such a detail freak as you can probably tell! I just love pictures like this!

My Dad is so sweet! Carrying my train for me! Oh my gosh..... It was soooooo cold! I literally could not feel my toes after a good 5 minutes of being back in the temple! I kept using that gray blanket to stay warm and needless to say I would of died without it. The only thing that was kinda stinky was that blanket made my hair so frizzy for the pictures! Luckily my husband is a photo shop genius so any I want to print I can just ask him to fix!

Frizzy example!

Classic of course!

There is one more just like this that I can't decide which i like better! I think I am going to get one of them printed! I might make Aj make the sky more blue though! Is that cheating?

Getting dressed for the reception with my mommy!

Kinda corny but fun!

Classic getting ready pictures

At the Reception Center

My Cake

AJ's sweet utah helmet grooms cake! Thanks so much Ashley you are so sweet for doing this for him!

It was perfect! My little Nephew poked eyes in the head while we were taking pictures... it was pretty hilarious! It didn't even look like a cake it looked like a real helmet! At the end of the reception Aj took my nephew back to the cake and together they carved a mouth to go with the eyes! How adorable is that!

Here is a picture of them doing that together!

Here is a good picture of the eyes! So hilarious!

We're dorks!

All of my beautiful bridesmaids!

Classic AJ

So cute!

I love my Mommy!

Aj and his beautiful mommy!

So adorable!

I love my daddy so much!

Classic us!

Aj's wonderful family! Which I am so happy to be a part of! I never thought my in laws would be so nice and fun! I lucked out big time! Sweetest family ever!

My wonderful family that does so much for me! I love them so much! I lucked out with them too! I actually have a normal non-dysfunctional family which is hard to come by these days! I love you guys! Thanks for all you did for the wedding!

There are pretty much a million more pictures I want to post but I am officially sick of uploading pictuzres. Sorry they are a bit out of order! So I will do another post with just pictures. So a few candids maybe and what-nots of the wedding to come when i am more in the mood!

We love you all and thank you so much for all your love and support in this wedding! Just to sum it up.... Happiest day of our lives....... we couldn't have asked for a better day or anything! Thank you everyone!

Soon to come!

2010-01-29T01:15:00.000-08:00

I promise as soon as a get two seconds which will be in a few days! I will blog my little heart out! With pictures from the honeymoon and hopefully the wedding pretty soon! We are so extremely happy together and are so happy to be married! I have to say now being married our extremely weird sides have come out and we truely are a match made in heaven. I wish there was more time in a day so i could spend more time just being around him! (Hopefully it stays that way and i don't get sick of him ;)!!!) Love you all and thanks for coming to the wedding those of you who made it!

Denise... I love you!

2009-12-15T00:49:00.000-08:00

So today is just one of those days where you take a minute, sit back and think about how blessed your life really is. Am I the only one who does that? Probably not, I'm sure a lot of people do it. Well today I was doing that, for the bettter part of the day one blessing kept coming to my mind, Denise Marie Mullins.
When Denise and I met there was just something about her that made me want to be with her for the rest of my life and for forever. I could talk to her, I could joke with her, and I could be my really random weird self with her. It was so great! On our first date I picked her up and before we had even made it down the street she had grabbed my iPod turned on Aerosmith and started scream singing it at the top of her lungs telling me and Brady that we needed to join in. I pulled a Mosby and immediately I fell for her. She told me she was terrible at bowling that night, but I believe in the first game she killed me, I kept telling her that she was telling me she was bad just so that I'd go easy on her and then she could beat me. She swore that she had never bowled that well in her life, she proved it on the second game ;)
Denise convinced me one day to buy a game called Left 4 Dead, and to get xbox live again so we could play it online. I did as I was told and we would spend hours sitting on my couch killing zombies together. We even bought huge safety pins so we could build a fort around the living room and play Left 4 Dead in our fort but I ended up moving before we could do that. We saved the pins though and will get to use them in the living room in our own home in January.
So many things about Denise led me to fall in love with her, but the thing that I saw in her that really made it all happen was her love for the Gospel, for the Savior and for our Father in Heaven. From the very first day that I talked to Denise she has helped me want to be a better person. She has lifted me up and helped me to become stronger and closer to my Heavenly Father.
Denise, I cannot express in words the love that I feel for you in my heart. You are my everything, I have never been so happy and so in love! Whether its walking around ikea, playing xbox, watching football or reading our scriptures I love what we are doing because its with you. In a few weeks we will be sealed together for all of eternity, I cannot wait to be with you forever, to have little BTWs running around us making us crazy. You are the most amazing person that I have ever met and I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for putting me on the path to find you and to find the happiness and love that you have given to me.
Thank you for making me a better person, for picking me up and helping me to be who I am today. Thank you for loving everything about me, including the weird stuff, like when I rap songs that shouldn't be rapped or when I quote movies over and over, or continuously annoy you until you're probably wondering why you ever agreed to go on a second date with me. Each morning I wake up and look around my room at 61 sticky notes, each one stating a different reason that you love me, and I think about how lucky I am to have been through all of the trials I have been through in order to finally get to you.
I love you Denise, I will always love you and I will do everything that I can to show you that I love you, each and every day.

Love,

AJ

IKEA DATE!

2009-12-13T20:56:00.000-08:00

So Friday night we decided we needed to get out and do something just us! We have been so busy planning and doing family things we hadn't done anything in a while. (plus we are trying to save money). So we decided to go down to eat at In & Out Burger in Draper. Which was extremely quick (and oh so delicious) especially for a friday night! We were literally in and out! (HA HA HA) Then we decided to go walk around Ikea, which was a blast. We didn't realize they closed at 9! We had only walked around about a third of the store when they started to kick everyone out! We were super bummed. So we walked around Walmart instead! We had a sword fight with these awesome toy swords that feel really hard and hit against each other hard but don't hurt you! They were AWESOME!

P.S. ( moral of the story is we really want those swords for christmas! I mean how awesome would it be to come home from work to find your spouse waiting with a sword ready to have a sword fight! I KNOW RIGHT!)

Aj really knows how to ride the lady bugs!

Me just being a weirdo!

Park City Madness!

2009-12-05T21:46:00.000-08:00

So during Thanksgiving we all went and stayed up in a condo in park city with AJ's Aunt and Uncle, His parents, And his little brother Brady! I really wanted to go to the Tanger Outlets Midnight Madness thing. So AJ, Brady, and I went over at about 11 figuring it would be packed and an hour early would be best. To our surprise almost all the stores were already open and doing their sales! So we got all the deals with none of the crowds. We ended up staying until about 2 in the morning wandering around looking at the deals! (Only bought about 4 presents though). At 2 it got a bit insane. I saw a man trying to run over a guy standing in a parking stall trying to save it. IT WAS CRAZY! So we headed back to the condo and slept! The next day we shopped probably until about 6! Not really buying anything more just trying on stuff and going in all the cool stores on main street in park city! It was a really fun day! We went to baja cantina one of my families favorite restaurants! Which i have some fun pictures from! I'm so glad that AJ's family let me come up with them!

Bev and Stevie boy!

The whole gang!

Lynette and Allen

Photo Booth Fun

2009-11-15T22:25:00.000-08:00

Denise and I got a little carried away with the photo booth app on my laptop today. We were working on the wedding invitation and got a little bored so we did this in between.

So blessed and grateful!!!!

2009-11-11T23:13:00.000-08:00

I just wanted to say I AM SO GRATEFUL!!! I can't believe how lucky I am to have met AJ! I know without a doubt that there is not one person in this whole universe that could be more perfect for me in every way! Though that isn't what i wanted to talk about. I just wanted to take a minute to say I am so unbelievably grateful that he has such a kind, nice, caring family! They are so giving and unselfish it is ridiculous. So a few nights ago I was just talking to Lynette about my brothers fiance and how I wanted to give her bracelet to put on this watch face I already had! Of course, being the wonderfully nice person she is, she offers to let me use her beads. It was late and she was getting ready to go to St. George with Heidi, So of course I wasn't expecting to do it that night. She totally just gets all the stuff out and starts helping me make one. She even enlisted the help of Allen several times, who jumped up and helped even though he was in the middle of watching his show. It was just so kind to take the time to do that. That is just one of the many many nice things they have done. You know there is this stigma that says your supposed to not really like your future in laws........I must say i love every single one of them. I am so glad they are now a part of my life! They are kind and giving and completely accept me into the family. I am gaining not only the perfect husband from this marriage, But the perfect second family I LOVE THEM! On a similar note Kamie invited me to go to Bunko on tuesday, which i have never played before(she was right im hooked after one time). I won this adorable sign to put in my house. The food was SOOO good and Kamie's friends were hilarious and so nice. It was a blast. I really need to start up a bunko group with some of my friends! Anyone in???

That picture is the sign I won at bunko!

p.s.( this is my very first blog post and i have no idea how to do it. So please don't judge)

Fatal Error!

2009-11-10T14:29:00.000-08:00

Phew! Horrific story time! Hold on to your seat/mouse/keyboard/whatever! So everyone should know that I am kinda into computers and technology. If you read my blog at all about a year ago you would have seen a post called Mac Daddy. This was the post where I got my new macbook, I was super excited about it! Well that macbook has served me well for the past year until this last Saturday. (*Note - I run the macbook night and day, probably push the ram too far a lot of the time). On Saturday I was copying some files to a hard drive and the transfer stalled so I tried to quit the transfer and restart it, but the macbook wasn't responding to me. So I switched it off and switched it back on, it went to the white startup screen and hung, and hung, and hung. So switched it off and back on and it went to the startup screen and hung for a minute then shut off. I was a little nervous but thought it had to be ok. So I let it sit for a few hours before I tried again, the result? Same thing happened. So I removed the battery... no help. Denise found some trouble shooting ideas for me and I tried all of them to no avail.
Finally frustrated and nervous that I was going to have to buy a new macbook and start all over I made an appointment at the genius bar, after waiting for about 30 minutes one of the geniuses plugged an external drive in and booted OS X on my machine, he said that the drive was somehow corrupted and would need to be wiped clean.
72 hours later, my drive has been backed up the hard drive wiped and OS X reinstalled, now I'm just finishing installing the last of the software that I need in order to finish some work that I am over due on. Sorry!
I share this story because of how stressed out it made me, with the car problems I just had and the wedding coming up soon, the last thing Denise and I needed was to have to shell out some major bucks for a new macbook (although Denise told me if I had to buy a new one to get a macbook pro so that we wouldn't have to worry about me overworking it (She's awesome!), so that was the drawback of me being able to fix it :D ). The macbook being fixed was an answer to our prayers, literally!
Now I've been trying to convince her since we basically saved $1700 on me not buying a new laptop that we should get a mac mini, I mean come on its only $700, thats a huge saving! :) Love you Denise! Thanks for being patient with my expensive problems! :)

Best Fiance... EVER!

2009-11-09T08:13:00.000-08:00

Ok so I thought I would take a minute to tell everyone how awesome my fiance is, the other day I came home from work and she was at my house. I walked down into my room and I found sticky notes all over my room.

Each sticky note had a reason that she loves me, or something that she loves about me. Come on! I'm not that lovable... so to fill out this many sticky notes about me, is... well its pretty much a miracle right? And then a couple of days later she gave me a present that she bought for where ever we end up living.

I saw this door mat at the store when we were shopping and I carried it around the store with us then I decided not to buy it, so she went back to the store and got it for me. She is the best!

Denise I love you! I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you! Thank you!

Ok now everyone get back to work! :)
