I just wanted to give a shout out to one of my best friends Brittany Allred! Her and Jeff Gibson got married today and I so wish I could have made it. Brittany is such a beautiful person inside and out. A true friend with a compassionate heart. Headstrong and passionate. She has your back no matter what. I'm lucky to have her in my life. Love you Britt! Congratulations!!!

Tis the Season...

Thanksgiving

2011-12-03T13:11:00.004-07:00

Thanksgiving this year consisted of my mother in law, sisters in law, and myself running the Human Race 5K, and the boys playing in their annual turkey bowl. The weather wasn't too bad, a little chilly but at least there was no snow. After that we enjoyed a nap, and then headed to G&G Schroeder's house for some delicious thanksgiving dinner, games of Catch Phrase, and awesome company.
We're so thankful for all the many gifts and blessings in our lives: the gospel, each other, loving families, jobs, a home to call our own, health, educations, and our 2 cute dogs... just to name a few.

P.S.
I FINALLY can put the Christmas decorations out now! :)

Halloween 2011

Brett: Ringmaster Lynette: Tiger

Makena: Witch

AZ: We took a weekend trip to AZ the end of October to visit Brett's grandparents. Brett's parents and siblings went down there too, and we had a great time. We golfed, had a family dinner with Brett's cousins, aunts and uncles that live in Phoenix, went to a Pumpkin Farm with a corn maze, a petting zoo, and random activities, and just relaxed in the 85 degree weather. We also got to stop in and see our friends Danny and Cassie Hansen who just moved to AZ for Danny's Podiatry School. We had fun hanging out and eating delicious homemade chocolate rolo cookies, and getting a personal tour of the Midwestern Campus.

Our trip was short but enjoyable for the most part...the last night in AZ I got sick, and the plane ride back to UT Brett got sick. It was either the 24hr flu or food poisoning. But we are both feeling fine now.

It was nice for Brett and myself to be able to visit with G&G Matthews. Brett hadn't seen them since our wedding, so it was a much needed visit (I'll post the pics of Brett with them when I get the pics from my mother-in-law) .

FALL: I realized that the only "good" pics Brett and I had together were either form our engagements or our wedding day...4 years ago. I thought it would be nice to get some updated photos for memories and also for home decor (which I suck at by the way). Anyways, I asked Sara and Josh (Brett's sis and husband) if they could take some pics of us and they willing obliged. It was fun and we are really happy with how they turned out. Thanks Sara and Josh!

HALLOWEEN: We came up with our costumes in about 10mins with stuff around the house and from our Halloween box. We handed out candy to our few trick or treaters, then got dress up for the Bulton's Annual Halloween Party. It was a fun night!

The Dirty Dash

2011-10-21T18:37:00.004-06:00

Last month I actually paid to play in the mud...like who does that?! Well let me just tell you that it was soooo worth it! Some friends and I signed up to run The Dirty Dash 10k in Solider Hallow, UT. It is an event that you can do on your own, or enter as a team like we did. There are different obstacles that you encounter along the way. For instance mud pits, mud walls, mud tunnels, 1/2 mile of muddy water up to your waist, mud hills, rope ladders, and the famous giant slip and slide. We had mud EVERYWHERE by the time we crossed the finish line.
If anyone is interested in participating in The Dirty Dash next year click on it. They go to different states like Utah, Idaho, and Washington to name a few. I highly recommend it to anyone, regardless of your interest in running (cuz you could walk the whole thing if you'd like :)). It is just so much fun! But be warned, your clothes and shoes will never be the same (we donated our shoes afterwards), so wear something you don't care about.

Me, Carlie, Jodi, & Diesel

Our team name was Fast, Easy, Cheap. It was based off a t-shirt that Carlie and Jodi got from the SVU bookstore one year when they were promoting their text book sales. Pretty funny if you ask me. :)

LA...LA, L-L-A...LA

2011-09-14T23:14:00.000-06:00

Spur of the moment, Brett and I decided to join our friends on a trip to LA to see Utah play USC. We had so much fun and enjoyed the time we had to spend out of our daily routine with each other.

As soon as we got into town we drove straight to Huntington Beach, CA. It was beautiful! I am in love with the beach. There is just something about sitting in the sand, staring out at nothing but blue ocean and clear skis. We enjoyed throwing the football around, splashing in the waves, and relaxing on the sand. Even though the water was cold, you just can't beat the ocean!

The beach was not crowded at all. Funny story. Brett and the guys were playing football in the surf, and while Brett was diving for the ball Carter tried to swipe at it, which resulted in Brett's heel to his eye. Carter had a nice shiner for the whole vacation.

In front of the Angeles stadium. We were able to go to a Angeles Yankees game on Friday night.

The game was tied going into the bottom of the 9th inning. Angeles had the bases loaded and they hit a sacrifice fly to center field to win the game. It was the only exciting 10 seconds of the whole 3 hour game...:)

It looks like Brett is wearing the hat ha ha!

The Coliseum is HUGE! Our original tickets were right above the USC student section, so we stayed there for the first quarter and then moved to the Utah fan section...much better. It was a really intense game. It came down to the wire, although the final score says otherwise.

On our way home from the football game we decided to see the Staples Center (booo Lakers) and also the HOLLYWOOD sign just so we could say we did. :)

Overall our quick trip was just what we needed. We were able to spend 2 full days together enjoying the beach and sports, now what could be better?

We took a trip up to Calgary again this summer and had a blast as usual. Sadly we missed the Canada Day celebrations in Raymond, but fortunately were still able to see family. We participated in a lot of activities that were tons of fun. We went golfing in Raymond and Cochrane, we took in the sites of downtown Calgary, I played in a basketball tourney with my old high school teammates and we WON, we rode the Rhino, hit up the Calgary Stampede including the rodeo and the grandstand show, and ate way too much yummy food! Here is our adventure in pictures:

Well Nadine, Makena, and I headed down to st. george on monday to coach our skyline teams at the dixie camp. Dean coaches the sophs and I coach JV. It was fun and so hott! The camp was until friday, but then we played in the utah summer games this weekend. It was really great to get with my girls from college and play. Brett came down wednesday night and managed to get a lot of golfing in. I was even able to get 9 in between coaching and playing basketball, so it was nice.
We are headed home now, but enjoyed our mini vaycay full of basketball, swimming, golf, and yummy food!

Shout Out...

2011-06-16T18:03:00.003-06:00

To my little sister Breeze who finished her first marathon in just over 5 hours! I'm so impressed! She trained hard for the Utah Valley Marathon and rocked it! I will go on record and say I will never voluntarily run 26.2 miles, one half marathon is good enough for me. We're so proud of you Breeze!!!

Minutes after crossing the finish line and she doesn't even look exhausted....what gives??? :)

Hawaii 2011

2011-05-16T10:37:00.009-06:00

Hawaii was wonderful! We had so much fun just spending time together and relaxing on the beach. We stayed in Waikiki, but spent most of our time on the North Shore snorkeling, trying surfing, and just lying on the beach. We were able to go to the Dole Pineapple Plantation, Pearl Harbor, Polynesian Cultural Center, took a tour of BYUH, and did a session at the Laie Hawaii Temple...so beautiful! The weather was perfect. We had all but one sunny day (the day we left it poured all day long). This vacation was so fun! I enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks for an amazing 25th birthday present Brett!!! Love you!

ALOHA

2011-03-20T19:21:00.003-06:00

This year we celebrated my 25th birthday "Aloha" style! It was sooo fun! Brett and my family got all these Luau decorations and decorated the house. We had a cutout photo opt, a tiki bar, the limbo, a pineapple pinata, and lots of great company and food.

Apparently Brett is way more creative and sentimental then I give him credit for. He planned this Luau party as a theme for my birthday gift...that's right, we're going to HAWAII!! I am soo excited and cannot wait until the end of April.

Brett wrapped up a pineapple, and taped on the side of it was a note that said " Come pick a fresh one with me!" It was very sweet!

I had a wonderful time and appreciate all the hard work that went into making this birthday special and memorable!

I know it has been almost a month since your birthday on Feb. 19th, but I still wanted to wish you Happy Birthday! You have always been there for me and all of your kids when we needed you, and even when we thought we didn't (but you knew better) :). You are such a great example to me of service, love, patience, faith, humility, charity, selflessness and the list can go on and on.

Thank you for loving me beyond measure....I love you mom!!!

Christmas 2010

2011-01-04T22:23:00.004-07:00

This Christmas Brett and I were lucky enough to have the best of both worlds. My family came down to Utah, so we were able to enjoy the holidays with both families. My family stayed with Brett and I, so we had a full house, which was so much fun!

Looks like Santa stopped at our place

On New Years Eve day the whole family decided to go sledding at the hill across from our house. It was cold, but we had a blast!

We didn't have enough sleds so we brought the dogs' pool, it worked pretty well.

Brett decided to take Millie for a ride, she wasn't too excited about it.

Our crazy fun family!

Prior to this picture we were all gettin' down with the Dance Kinect for XBOX...priceless!

Brett and I were so spoiled this Christmas! We enjoyed every bit of it, and will have great memories to last us forever. I loved having my family around!

Christmas Tree

2010-11-28T21:18:00.004-07:00

We officially have our Christmas tree up! I went out and got it from a tree lot on Saturday while Brett was at work. He had total faith in me that I'd pick an awesome tree, and I have to admit, I delivered. :) We finished decorating it tonight, and we're happy with the end result.
We are excited to celebrate our first Christmas in our own home. Brett and I are so blessed, and we are very grateful for the blessings we enjoy.

Next year we've already decided that we are going to get a permit to cut down a tree. We will make a little family adventure out of it! :)

Halloween 2010

Mad Hatter and Alice

Halloween was a fun one. We went to Brett's families annual Halloween party at the Bulton's, always a good time with great food. Then later that evening we went to Evil Edwards Halloween Bash put on by our friends. They had a DJ there, good food, and fun games. We danced like crazy...to the point where Brett was sweating off his Mad Hatter makeup! :)

Weekend in the BEEV

2010-10-24T22:26:00.002-06:00

The beginning of this month I went out to Virginia for Homecoming weekend. It was a girls weekend so I was ridin' solo. Just for the record, I hate flying without Brett, especially on a red eye. Anyways, it was a BLAST! We had so much fun catching up with each other, reminiscing about some of the best times in our lives, playing ball with one another again, and just laughing until it hurt. I love my girls!

Nothing beats Don T's

(We beat the current team by 15...it was legit...we've still got it ha ha!)

It was a nice to catch up with old and new friends, and just remember what it was like to be back at school. I love SVU and the wonderful experiences that I've encountered, which have helped mold me into the person I am today.

P.S. But it was REALLY weird being there without Brett, since that was where we had spent the first 4 years of our relationship.

Our Home

2010-10-05T15:12:00.005-06:00

Here are some pictures of our house. It was built in the 70's, and everything in the house, except the kitchen, was pretty much from that era when we bought it.

I know it has been way too long since I last said I would put them up. I wanted the house to be completely done and decorated before I posted these, but reality hit me, and who even knows when everything will be done.

I wish I had my before photos to show the difference, but I don't have them with me. Anyways, we still have a lot of work to do, but we've made progress.

We closed on the house in January, and that night we went to work tearing down wallpaper and putting up can lights. I swear we did more work in the 3 weeks before we moved in, than the 8 months we have lived here. :) But overall I'm impressed with what we have accomplished.

The Kitchen

The Dining room. We replaced all the sliding glass doors with french doors, so much better for many reasons.

Living room

The living room again.

The entry way

Master Bedroom. We put those french doors in, but we need to still finish the trim and baseboards.

The Basement.

This will be a long process to finish, considering we still have work to do upstairs.

The basement kitchen

As you can see, our house is still in progress. I wish I had my before pictures to show ya'll just how much we have accomplished. It's definitely been a ride with a lot of ups and downs, but mostly ups. You don't realize how long it takes until you're in the thick of it.

I'll eventually get around to posting the befores (when I get them off moms camera), along with the new afters, once I've started to decorate the house.

We're grateful to have a place to call our own, and we feel very blessed. We love our neighbours, our ward, and everything about our location. As Brett would put it, "We're living the American dream."

October

2010-10-03T22:08:00.003-06:00

I was at the store a couple of weeks ago and I saw a really cute Halloween Advent calender that I wanted to purchase. The price was outrageous and since I'm sort of a "do it yourself" kinda girl, that's what I did. I had most of the materials on hand, I just had to go out and get some Halloween cut outs. I thought this calender would be really fun, especially for my 2yr old niece, Makena, who has been living with us.
It was really fun to make the calender, and to come up with an activity to do everyday leading up to Halloween.

Makena is totally sold on the idea of the Advent calender and gets so excited about the activity of the day. I'm pretty impressed with it myself, even though it took longer to do than I thought it would. Maybe I'll be up for it again come Christmas?

September 24th 2010...

2010-09-27T22:04:00.003-06:00

...is when Brett celebrated his 29th birthday and my dad celebrated his 49th birthday!

Brett and I, and a bunch of our friends went out to eat at a legit BBQ joint called Pats. They had a live band that sang Happy Birthday to Brett, it was great. Then we all decided to go bowling and had fun doing that. We had an awesome time, thanks to everyone that came!

Brett and Dad you are both amazing and I love you both so much!

Happy Birthday!!!

Another Addition

2010-08-26T22:58:00.004-06:00

We did it again....we got another PUPPY!!!

Millie is such a feisty lil' pup! She will not let Otis push her around. Any toy that Otis has, Millie will try and rip it right out of his mouth. It is so funny!

Otis and Millie chewing on raw hides.

We love the German shepherd/black lab mix.

Otis has been so good to Millie. She already has him whipped:)

They are so cute together. Millie is Otis' little shadow, she follows him everywhere.

Otis is so kind to share his bed with her, even though her bed is right beside his.

We love our pups (yes Otis is still a pup at 14mths, even if he doesn't look it) soooo much! Millie is about 11 weeks old and is just a bit smaller than Otis was at that age. We are still working on potty training, but it's coming along pretty well. She is definitely more stubborn and aggressive than Otis ever was or is. They should balance each other out just fine. They get along great, however, Otis was kind of jealous at first. But now he just sees Millie as someone to tease and play with. They are best buds!

Oh Otis

2010-08-10T11:35:00.002-06:00

The other week Brett and I were working on our sprinkler system. Some of the pipes underground were cracked causing water to just pool around the sprinklers. While we were fixing them, I walked out of the garage to find this....

Muddy water all over our sidewalk...

and a huge hole where the sprinkler once was.

Of course I knew who the culprit was, I just had to find him!
I followed the muddy prints to the opposite side of the yard, and lying there all smug, in his own sense of accomplishment, I found him!

Guilty as charged!

But how could I get mad at such a cute face?

Oh Otis...

3 Years!

2010-08-10T11:19:00.003-06:00

On August 2nd Brett and I celebrated 3 years of marriage! Its been great! In the last 3 years we've graduated from University, became proud parents to a lovable black lab/german shepard mix, and bought our first home. Life has been good to us thus far and we are so grateful.

LOVE YOU BABE!

Trip to Canada

2010-07-20T18:49:00.005-06:00

For the 1st of July Brett and I headed up to Canada for the Raymond Parade, and to visit with family. My Grandma Adams lives in Raymond, and ever since I can remember, we would go there every summer to celebrate Canada Day.
We had a lot of fun celebrating Canada's Birthday! We went to the parade, we had a BBQ with family and friends, we went fishing and to the park, we roasted marshmallows, and to top it off we went to the rodeo grounds to watch fireworks.
Like always, our trips up to Canada are way too short, but nevertheless, we are just grateful to be able to make it up there once in a while.

On our way home we decided to take a little detour and go through Glacier National Park. I had been there before, but Brett never had. It was so beautiful and clean! It really just made me appreciate the beauty of nature. I just love everything about the mountains; the trees, the waterfalls, the animals, the smell of fresh air...they all fit together so perfectly!

Lake Powell

2010-06-21T18:25:00.004-06:00

Brett and I, Lacey, Reese, and their 2 kids, and my in-laws all headed down to Lake Powell for the weekend. It was soooo wonderful! The weather was excellent, 95 degrees everyday, and the water was just right. We drove there Wednesday night, spent 3 days on the week, and left for home on Sunday. We had tons of fun playing in the water, going for boat rides, riding the sea-doos, and eating lots. I can't wait to go back in August!

2010-05-09T10:39:00.010-06:00

To my mother and mother-in-law,

Thank you for all of your love and support through our lives. We are who we are because of your unselfish love and amazing example. We love you both forever and ever!

"All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother." - Abraham Lincoln

"I surely know that there is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood." - M. Russell Ballard

There is just no way to describe the love and gratitude I feel towards you mom. You are my everything. Some may feel it's a shame to turn out like their mother's, but I hope to be just like you. I love you mom!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's in my life!

It's About Time

2010-04-18T15:04:00.003-06:00

Well it has almost been 3 months now since Brett and I purchased our first home. I failed to mention it earlier because I wanted to put before and after pictures up with this post, but I've realized that it's going to take longer than I thought to do that. But I promise that I will post some eventually.

We have been very busy with updating our home, and have had a lot of help from our families, THANK YOU!!! We have pretty much finished remodeling the upstairs, and soon will start on the basement. I must say, it has all come along very nicely.

It is definitely nice to have our own place to call home. We bought our house in Cottonwood Heights, Utah, and just love the area. Most of our neighbors are all elderly, but they are the sweetest people. We always enjoy visiting with them, and all the cakes, breads, and cookies they bring us are a bonus!
Otis loves having a dog park right across the street to play at. We usually take him there everyday, and sometimes he takes himself there too...(the yard is our next project, including the hole under the fence :p )

Elite 8 Game

2010-03-28T21:37:00.002-06:00

On Saturday Brett and I, along with Lacey and Reese, went to the Elite 8 game here in SLC. The match up was Kansas State vs. Butler. Overall it really didn't matter to me who won this game, but for the purpose of my bracket, I was cheering for K State. As you all probably know by now, Butler won and they are now going to the Final Four. It was an exciting game, and I was surprised at how many Butler fans were in the arena.

We had such a great time! I can't wait to go again in 2013 when SLC hosts the 1st and 2nd NCAA Tourney games!

March Madness!!

2010-03-22T14:29:00.005-06:00

March is pretty much my favorite month! The reasons being first and fore most...March Madness!!! I just love college basketball and I can't get enough of it this month. Secondly, the change from winter to spring is exhilarating! The flowers start to blossom, the grass begins to turn green, and life just gets a little sweeter. Then lastly its my birthday:) Who doesn't love celebrating their birthday?? Oh March is great!

For my birthday last week, Brett stayed home from work and made me breakfast in bed. Then we got ready for the day and headed out to Park City with my grandma and mom. We shopped at the outlet mall, walked along main street, and ate lunch at the Red Banjo. It was a lot of fun.

Later that night grandma and mom made a delicious birthday dinner for our families to enjoy. We had a good time visiting, eating, and playing games.

Brett surprised me with the best present ever, 2 tickets to the Men's Basketball NCAA Elite 8 game here in Salt Lake this weekend! I'm so excited for it!! I was really hoping that Duke would be in the West division so we could see them play, but they are in the South division instead. Oh well, it will still be amazing! I've picked Syracuse and Kansas State to make it to the Elite 8 game for the West division, and so far I'm right on track.

Brett also got me a diamond necklace and some clothes, he spoils me too much!

OH CANADA!!

2010-02-28T17:13:00.003-07:00

I just wanted to give a little shout out to my homeland CANADA! Way to represent on our home soil and win the most Olympic GOLD medals! It was so exciting to see CANADA'S Men's and Women's teams win the GOLD.

No discredit to USA though, they put up a tough fight, and did win the most medals overall.

I would like to leave you with a little tribute to The Great White North:

Go BIG or Go Home

There is nothing better than playing fetch with a tree branch....life's good!

Where'd the Holidays Go?

2010-01-04T15:55:00.005-07:00

Christmas was great! Brett and I drove 14hrs to surprise my family up in Canada. We left the 23rd right after work and got there Christmas Eve afternoon. It was so fun to see the look on my families faces when they saw us. No on had a clue that we were going to be there, it was totally worth the drive.

We spent Christmas at my grandparents house (my mom's parents) and all my cousins, uncles, and aunts were there. It was the first time in a while that we all were together. So we spent a lot of time playing games, eating delicious food, and just chillin.

Brett and I were able to stay for 5 days that just seemed to go by way too fast. I would post pictures of the festivities, however we lost our camera somewhere in the house and had to leave before we could find it. But isn't it funny that as soon as we left (well more like 4 hrs after leaving) my mom calls us telling us she had found our camera. So I guess she will just have to mail it to us or something.

Anyways, I love being able to spend time with family. I feel blessed to have the families that I do have. Now if we all could just live a little closer...

New years was spent with my brother in law and my sisters in law, as well as my soon to be brother in law. We all went out for dinner then came back to the house and played some games. My mother in law got this new game for Christmas called Witts and Wagers, its really fun. So we spent most of the evening playing that game. It was a good low key new years.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2009-12-13T16:59:00.003-07:00

Love,

Brett, Lynette, & Otis

THANKSGIVING

2009-11-29T17:58:00.002-07:00

This Thanksgiving we had a wonderful dinner with Brett's family at G&G Schroeder's. Its always nice to get together with family and celebrate all of the things that you are thankful for. I am grateful for many things in my life, including my family and the health of myself and my loved ones.

The morning of Thanksgiving Sara, Janice, and I ran a 5K, and although it was freezing, we still had fun.

SVU Homecoming

2009-11-07T15:32:00.004-07:00

Almost a month ago, Brett and I went back to the Beev for homecoming. Some of our really good friends that we graduated with live too far to see often, so we all planned to go back SVU this year. It was a lot of fun to visit with old friends and to see the place we called home for 4 years. Brett and his friends played in an Alumni Golf Tournament and they won. We both played in our Alumni Basketball games, it made me realize how much I miss my girls.

The campus had changed a lot. The church building that had just began groundbreaking the last month we lived there is now up and running, they built a new football field, they turned the pool into a cafe, and the new dorms are now finished.

Some of the best years of our lives so far have been at SVU. That is where we met, where we got to play the sport that we love while getting an education, it is where we've met some of our best friends, and where we've made memories to last a life time. We definitely miss being back there, but we are happy to have opened a new chapter in our lives.

Like always, I brought my camera and took zero pictures. These were courtesy of Anna, thanks girl!

To the 2 Favorite Men in my Life

2009-09-24T19:24:00.006-06:00

Happy 28th Birthday Brett & Happy 48th Birthday Dad!!

It is awesome that the two men I love the most in my life have the same birthday.

Dad, thanks for being the best dad a girl could ever have. I love you dad!

Brett, thank you for being such a wonderful husband and best friend! You mean the world to me and I'm grateful for you in my life. I love you soooo much babe!

I didn't have an 8 so I just did 24+4=28 :)

For Brett's birthday I decided to do a Murder Mystery Party. It turned out really well and was so fun! Everyone really got into their characters, which made it such a success. I would highly recommend hosting a party like this. Thanks to Janice for all her help with the party and hosting it. Everyone had a BLAST!

We are dressed in our CLUE character costumes

Mini Getaway

2009-09-20T18:06:00.003-06:00

Last week Brett, myself and his family went to St. George for the weekend. The weather was beautiful and it was just nice to getaway and relax for a couple of days.

We went swimming, played games, golfed, went on walks, and even made it to Las Vegas for a day where we got to watch the Blue Man Group. Brett and I hope that we can do this at least once a year.

The view from our bedroom in the condo.

Brett and I with the Blue Man Group...it was such an awesome show!

Otis was so cute playing in his water dish

Mark Twain and The Mississippi

2009-08-11T11:27:00.005-06:00

Brett and I went to Missouri for the last week in July and had so much fun! I love the time we get to spend with family. Scroll down to see the fun things that we did.

On our way to Nauvoo we stopped in Hannibal, MO to see the place where Mark Twain grew up. For those of you who don't know or forget, Mark Twain is the author of the famous novels, 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn', and 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer'.

Nauvoo and Carthage

2009-08-11T10:45:00.005-06:00

We travelled about 3 hours from the lake to go to Nauvoo and Carthage. Brett and I have both been before, but never together. It was nice to walk around and see the Church history of Nauvoo and Carthage together. We even got to do a session in the Nauvoo Temple with my parents while we were there. The Nauvoo Temple is so beautiful inside and out. I just love the history behind these two sacred places.

Boating at Lake Ozark, MO

2009-08-11T10:12:00.005-06:00

Here is a ton of pictures of us boating on the lake. We all had so much fun!

Me and Milo

I almost got Brett at the peak of his jump, but I didn't know my moms camera had a slight delay, so the picture is of him landing the jump.

Brett wanted a turn by himself. I think he got tired of my hair whipping him in the face.

Now that's a face of enjoyment:)

It's Finally Time!

2009-08-09T22:07:00.007-06:00

Well Brett and I decided that it was finally time to take this step in our relationship, so we....

GOT A PUPPY

His name is Otis and he is a Black Lab/German Shepherd mix. Otis is 8 weeks old, and very loving.

No, Brett is not choking him. Brett is just trying to get Otis to look at the camera, but he is too busy playing with his toy.

.Otis is great at travelling in the car. He will whine a little bit at first, but then he stops and curls up at my feet for the whole ride.

Otis loves to bite my toes and chew on anything he can. He is starting to learn his name and is almost house broke. Otis loves playing with Brett! He is a little clumsy and will grow into his huge paws soon. We sure love our new puppy!

P.S.

We named him Otis as a tribute to my brothers dog Milo, who died Aug.3, 2009 at the age of 2. We know that Milo and Otis would've been instant best friends.

We love and miss you sooo much little Milo!

Happy Birthday USA

2009-07-07T13:16:00.004-06:00

July 4th was really great! We had a pool party/BBQ in the afternoon, then we went to the Oakley Rodeo that night. Everyone had so much fun eating, swimming, and celebrating our Independence.
The guys playing pool ball...it got crazy!

Brett grillin the chicken and burgers

More pool ball, they couldn't get enough

Gotta love them cowboys

No 4th of July would be complete without some fireworks!

Pioneer Trek

2009-07-01T12:16:00.004-06:00

In January Brett and I were asked if we would be interested in being a Ma and Pa for the upcoming stake Pioneer Trek, and we were. Both of us were really excited to have this calling and knew that it would be a blast. Although I had gone on trek before as a youth (Brett never did), I knew that it would be a different experience since we were going to be the ones in charge.

Our Ma and Pa family
All the Mas and Pas

Two weeks prior to the official trek, just the Mas and Pas went on a mini trek. Since it had been raining for basically the whole month of June here in Utah, our mini trek was quite the adventure. Everything was so muddy that it was difficult to push and pull the handcart. Our shoes were caked with mud and weighed an extra 5lbs each. By the time we finished our mini trek (5 miles round trip), we were filthy. We knew that if the trails didn't dry up within the next couple of weeks that the kids would probably be miserable. Luckily our prayers were answered and the trails were dry come Thursday morning. In my opinion, the weather was perfect for our first day of trek. The sun was shinning and the temperature was in the high 80's.

To make a long story short, the trek went from Thursday morning to Saturday afternoon. We had a great group of 8 kids, that worked hard and enjoyed themselves. We were family #5 and also the orange family. The kids decided to name our family the High 5's. Our family was the best! We never heard the kids complain and we could joke around with them and just have fun. We were all competitive too, which resulted in many first place finishes in the games that we played. The kids loved it!

Max, JP, and Scott playing their harmonicas

Overall, Brett and I really grew to love our "children" during our 3 days with them. We grew spiritually together as a family, and the kids learned things about themselves that they didn't know before. We all got a glimpse of what it was like for the pioneers who travelled in faith, for 1300 miles to build Zion. We are both very grateful for this opportunity that we had and hope that we can do it again sometime.

Funny

Appreciated

Talented

Hard-working

I also want to wish my father in law an awesome day and say thanks for raising such an incredible son. Also to my grandpas, Happy Father's Day...Love you all!

Calf Creek

2009-05-27T00:17:00.007-06:00

Over Memorial weekend me and Brett, and a bunch of friends went down to Escalante Utah, and camped at Calf Creek. We had a great time despite the rain that constantly fell from Friday night to Saturday afternoon. We did manage to have some sunshine throughout Sunday morning and afternoon.

We hiked lower falls on Saturday, which was really neat. Along the trail there were many things to look at including thousand year old pictographs. When we finally made it to the base of the waterfall, it was at least 10 degrees cooler because of the mist coming off the falls. Brett ran and jumped in, but it was way to cold for me!

On Sunday morning we got up early, ate breakfast, then headed out to hike upper falls. I liked this hike the best. It was shorter, but more intense because of the steep sandstone terrain. When we got to the upper part of the falls, there was a place where we could cliff jump. This was so fun even though the icy water literally took your breath away. We jumped a couple times and then started to hike back because of monstrous rain clouds heading our way.

We originally were going to stay Sunday night, but no one wanted to spend another night in the rain. We were lucky because we were able to pack up camp and get on the road right before the major down pouring began.

Overall, it was a great weekend spent with awesome company, doing fun activities. What a great way to kick off summer 2k9!

Mother's Day SHOUT Out!

2009-05-10T19:44:00.008-06:00

We just want to wish our mom's and grandma's a very Happy Mother's Day! We hope they got spoiled because they really do deserve it!

We are so grateful to the Mother's in our life and all that they've done and continue to do for us.

LOVE YOU!

Home SWEET Home

2009-04-22T23:21:00.008-06:00

The last 10 days I was in Missouri visiting my family. We were all there (except Brett) for the first time in 2 years. My cute little niece Makena was there, which meant there was never a dull moment. She is 10 1/2 months and already walking everywhere! She has the biggest, most beautiful blue eyes, and cheeks that beg you to kiss them! :) I love that little sweetie so much!

Anyways, we celebrated Easter together when I got there on Wednesday and had a yummy turkey dinner thanks to mom.

We watched a lot of Hockey (GO FLAMES GO), we played games, went shopping, took Makena to the park, went on walks, and just had fun hanging out, reminiscing about childhood memories.

(Mommy & Makena)

I love my family so much and wish I could live closer to them. Its always nice to go home to loving parents and siblings. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family. I can't wait for the day (not anytime soon :D) when Brett and I expand our little family!

Girls Getaway

2009-04-02T23:49:00.013-06:00

The last week of March, the girls (mother in law, sisters in law, cousin and aunt in law) took a road trip to Arizona to visit G&G Matthews and to relax. It was great! The weather was perfect and the company was even better.
We really took advantage of the sunshine by...

swimming,

going to the zoo,

enjoying morning runs,
(didn't have any pics of us running, so here is one of the boys and me after running)

devouring melting ice cream,

and eating way too much!

But the best part was being able to visit with G&G. They are so cute and even though we wore them out, I know they loved having us.

This has become an annual girls trip, ( I missed last year because I was still at school) that I'll never pass up!

McKaylee's Baby Blessing

2009-03-23T17:49:00.003-06:00

On Sunday was our newest niece's baby blessing. She looked so precious and sweet! Her daddy Josh (Brett's older brother) gave her a beautiful blessing. It was nice to be with family and friends for such a special occasion.

Hair Cut!

2009-03-23T17:23:00.005-06:00

BEFORE...

My hair is so long you can't even see the bottom of it in this picture.

AFTER...

I had 10 inches taken off and I felt naked! I had to remind myself that my hair length is still considered long.

Ultimately, the last time my hair was this short, I was in Grade 8! For most of my life I have had long hair and I just love it long. However, lately I had been feeling like I just wanted a change. So on Friday I told Traci (my aunt and hair dresser) to just cut it an inch below my shoulders and layer it. She kept asking me "are you sure?"
Well I am pleased with the end product. I no longer have to use a palm full of shampoo and conditioner, half the day isn't spent blow drying my hair, and I instantly lost about 5 pounds! :)

P.S. I can't wait for it to grow out and for me to get a tan!

Draper Temple

2009-03-11T19:41:00.003-06:00

On Tuesday Brett, myself, and his family went to the Draper Temple open house. It was Beautiful! I had never been to a temple open house before, so it was neat to be able to walk through the temple with those who have not yet been through it.
One of the things that I love about living in Utah, is that Brett and I have so many temples available for us to attend. When we were back in Virginia going to school, the closest temple to us was the D.C. Temple, which was 3.5 hours away, but worth the drive.
I am so grateful for temples that allow us to feel at peace amongst all the calamities of the world.

xoxo Love Day! xoxo

2009-02-15T13:44:00.007-07:00

Well our Valentines day was great! Brett had to work in the morning, but when he did get home in the afternoon he brought me a 'Lucky Bamboo' plant. I had told him earlier in the week, while we were grocery shopping, that I would rather have a neat looking bamboo plant than flowers. He was listening because that is what I got and I was really happy.

Then later that evening we went out to dinner at Tsunami. It's a really great Japanese-inspired sushi restaurant! We filled up on Don Juan, T.N.T., and Philly sushi rolls, with some pot stickers on the side....mmmm yummy!

We then headed back home for chocolate fondue and to watch the NBA dunk competition. :) We dipped strawberries, apples, bananas, and pretzels. It was so delicious!!

Oh and just a little side note that Brett and I now laugh at:

On Feb.12th Brett wanted me to come with him to pick out my V-day present. I like surprises so I was kind of bummed that he wasn't picking it out for me, but I decided to go anyways. It was later in the evening when we drove to this strip mall and the only store that I could consider Brett getting me something from was Big 5 Sporting Goods. So me, in a really excited voice said "Babe are you getting me Rollerblades?! Sweet, I can't wait! I really wanted new Rollerblades! Thanks love!" Then I look at Brett and see his awkward expression and realize that I am not getting Rollerblades, and that we are pulling up to Jared's Galleria. You think that I would be more excited for Jared's than Big 5, but no, I was a little sad that I wasn't getting Rollerblades, and Brett was a little sad that I was more excited over Rollerblades than diamonds. But Brett really wanted to be romantic and get me diamond earrings, so I couldn't help but love his sweet idea. Brett is such a sweetheart and he can't help but want the best for me, and me for him. I am so grateful to him and how hard he works for our little family. I love him so much! Thanks for making Love Day so special! Love you babe!!

"Not Security Guard...Security Officer"

2009-01-24T01:00:00.004-07:00

Tonight Brett and I saw the movie 'Paul Blart: Mall Cop' and we highly recommend it. This movie kept us laughing the whole hour and 40 mins. It was good, clean humor. So for your next date night, we definitely suggest...
Paul Blart: Mall Cop! :)

Christmas '08 & New Years '09

2009-01-05T00:13:00.004-07:00

This Christmas we had the best of both worlds. My parents flew in from Missouri on the 22nd, so we were able to spend Christmas with both Brett's family and my family. We had a wonderful time visiting family Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We definitely were spoiled!

Right after Christmas Brett and I, along with my family, drove up to Canada. I was so excited to go back to my roots, especially during the holiday season because 2004 was the last Christmas I had spent up in Calgary. We were able to stay for a week, spending time with my extended family. It was so great to see grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins. It truly was the best Christmas/New Years ever!

We love our families so much and feel so blessed to have them in our lives. A loving family is truly one of the best gifts anyone could ever have...and lucky us, we've got two!

Enjoy the pictures from Christmas in Utah and New Years in Calgary.

On Saturday Brett and I went snowboarding with Greg & Alyssa, Bree and Marshall. It was so much fun!! It was my second time ever snowboarding (1st time was 8yrs ago), and Bretts third time ever. I was kind of timid at first, but by the end of the day I let loose. We spent the whole day on the slopes having fun and falling on our butts!

Brett was able to take a quick video of me going down the hill on my second run of the day, while he was going down too. Brett is pretty awesome like that! :)

I stopped halfway down the hill to take this video of Brett.

Twin Falls Idaho

2008-12-08T13:55:00.005-07:00

On Saturday Brett, BreeAnn, and I went to Twin Falls for the day to watch Nadine play basketball. It was a beautiful day and the drive wasn't too long. We had never been to Twin Falls before, so we were excited to see the Snake River and the new Temple. It was also nice to visit with Nadine and Makena, (even if it wasn't for long), since we wont be seeing them at Christmas. But anyways it was a fun day!

On the morning of Thanksgiving, Brett and a bunch of his friends got together to play some Turkey Bowl. The guys were all excited and the weather was not too cold. Brett's team won, he caught the winning touchdown! It was fun to watch these "old" men relive their glory days of high school football. :) However, come this morning reality hit Brett (and I'm sure some of the other guys), as he tried to get out of bed and couldn't move his sore body!

Later that afternoon, we were able to get together with Brett's family and my brother and sister, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. It was so yummy!
Brett and I are so thankful for the people in our lives and the blessing that we have recieved time and time again.

JAZZ vs SUNS

2008-11-18T12:33:00.007-07:00

Last night Brett and I, Lacey and Reese, and Sara and Steve all went to the Jazz vs Suns game, thanks to Steve. We had a BLAST! As you know, Brett and I love basketball, and it just so happened to be my favorite team (suns) vs Brett's favorite team (jazz). It was a close game up until the last 5 mins of the 4th quarter, then the jazz took the lead and never looked back...sadly:(
But overall, we all had a great time and awesome seats! Thanks Steve and Happy Birthday!

My boy Nash warmin' up

Shaq is HUGE!

We're lovin' the game!

Suns D'n it up

We had so much fun!

P.S.
Yes I know that the pictures depict the Suns in action...I'm a little biased towards them. However, I'm sure if Brett were posting about this game, then the pictures would favor the Jazz. But he is not and I am so...
GO SUNS GO! :)

Family Time

2008-11-10T12:43:00.000-07:00

My sister Nadine and my neice Makena were also in town this weekend, along with my mom. Brett and I were able to see them on Saturday night at Beaus hockey game. Nadine and Makena live in Lethbridge (which is in Canada) so we don't get to see them often. It was good to see them...I just love Makena so much and miss her every day!!

CaBiN FuN!!

2008-11-10T12:23:00.000-07:00

This last weekend me, Brett, and a bunch of his friends went up to Danny's parents cabin and had a BLAST! We rocked out to Rock Band, we had a Table Tennis Tournament, we went 4 wheeling and hot tubbing, we played a little pool and skeet ball, and we also watched some college football. Basically we just had a fun, relaxing weekend, that we wish we could have every weekend. Here are some pictures that we think ya'll will enjoy!

Facebook Update

2008-11-06T22:50:00.000-07:00

Thanks to Patrick (the facebook guy) my facebook account is fixed. I'm still debating whether or not I want to keep it, but for now I still have it.
Anyways, Brett and I are doing great and are loving the snow!

HALLOWEEN

2008-11-02T14:01:00.000-07:00

For the last month Brett (with a little help from me and his dad) has been working on a project...a Go Kart. He painted it white and then he spray painted metallic blue flames on the hood.

His whole plan was to get it ready in time for Halloween, so that we could drive it around and pass out candy to the kids. We also thought that it'd be fun to dress up as dead Danny and Sandy from Grease. So here are a few pictures from Halloween night!

Brett wanted me to post the cupcakes that I made for our ward Halloween party...they were Frankensteins if you can't tell. :)

We also carved pumpkins for family home evening. We both decided to freehand the faces for our pumpkins. Brett decided to do the Grim Reeper and I decided to do a Witch. They turned out pretty good, especially Bretts!

We hope ya'll had a fun Halloween!!

We love these!!!!

2008-10-29T18:52:00.000-06:00

I think these are realy funny. We love when we see them on America's Funniest Videos. Hope ya'll enjoy.

FACEBOOK HACKER

2008-10-27T21:27:00.000-06:00

So last night around 8pm I get a text from my friend asking me why I posted a giftcard from Maceys on her facebook wall. I told her I had no idea what she was talking about, so I logged on to my facebook and sure enough I had sent her, along with the rest of my friends, a Maceys giftcard. I thought maybe I clicked something while I was last on there and it sent this mass post, so I wasn't too worried about it. However, today when I tried to log on to my facebook it said that my password was incorrect....WHAT???
Brett is the only other person with my password and he didn't change it so I guess someone hacked into my account. I can't change my password back because my account email address no longer exists. So anyways, I've been trying to fix this problem since I found out, but really there is nothing I can do but email facebook and hope they get back to me. This makes me really angry and I just wonder who would want to hack into my facebook?
So if you happen to get a random post or anything like that please let me know and remember it is not from me.

We are an Uncle and Aunt over again

2008-10-26T18:30:00.000-06:00

So my brother and sister-in-law Heather just had their second daughter Makaylee. She is so cute.

In our lives, I can't wait for Halloween. I think it is my favorite holiday. I think it will be fun this year if we get our act together and everything done before Friday. There will be a lot of pictures. Hopefully eveything works out.

BYU vs UTAH

2008-10-06T21:46:00.001-06:00

Last Friday Brett and I went to watch my brother Beaus hockey game, he plays defense for BYU. We had a lot of fun as we watched BYU kick the UTES trash 13-4. Beau scored his first goal of the season, which was pretty cool. We are so excied to watch more of his games this year...I've really missed watching hockey!
