Craft Room

okay so i dont think i posted anything about Bandon and I moving out of our apartment and into his Brothers condo. so anyway we moved and now we have a 3 bedroom place. which we love all the space!!! Brandon has "The Den" as he calls it, and i have "The Craft Room" which up until yesterday has been more of the crap room. ;>
I am very excited i was driving home from Joann's Fabric getting things for my latest project and i there was a garage sale on the side of the road. i glanced over and saw the mst amazing hutch. so of course i pulled a U-Turn. I asked them how much this hutch was and they told me $30 fr the set it also came with a little side table. So long story short i hurried home got Brandon went to the ATM and got my hutch. here it is....


i am so excited it finnishes off this room so perfectly. and now it is a true craft room.

Lamborghini

Yes that is me sitting in a Lamborghini. and brandon standing next to a Lamborghini.

Ok so here is the story......

So my cousin Alyssa just got married. Her and her husband met up at BYU. The story goes that their first conversation was over a Car and Driver magazine. So my uncle knew some people with some very cool cars and so he surprised Alyssa nad Tyler with a lawn full of cars at their reception. it was pretty crazy.

Anyway i was lucky enough to get to sit in the Lamborghini and take my picture.

3 year anniversary Trip

Sedona, Flagstaff, Urgent Care, Grand Canyon, Pine, Home.


Brandon planned a surprise trip for us to go up north. it was very fun. we had a few set backs though. i got very sick.


We left on Friday afternoon. we drove through sedona just to see what it was like . neither Brandon or i have been there. it was so pretty. we are already wanting to plan another trip to go back. here are some pics..



then we went to flagstaff where we stayed at the little america Hotel http://www.littleamerica.com/flagstaff/. it was very nice. here are some pictures of our room. we had a forest view it is definitely a place we will go back to.


we went to dinner at Brandy's Restaurant(http://www.brandysrestaurant.com/) it was very good.there was so much food we couldn't eat it all.


the next morning we had breakfast delivered to our room b/c i wasn't feeling very well i had a fever the night before etc.. our food was very good. here we are eating bfast. we are such dorks;)











we got ready and checked out of the hotel and headed up to the Grand Canyon. just as we got outside of flagstaff my back really started to hurt. we stopped in Williams because there was no way i could make a 2hr drive to the Grand canyon. we are so lucky we found an urgent care and we found out i had a kidney infection. the dr gave me antibiotics and pain meds to get through the weekend.










after our little detour we were ff to the G.C. here are some of our pics. the 1st few i look terrible b/c the meds haven't quite kicked in yet. by the end of our G.C. trip i could smile.
































we took the scenic route through the grand canyon then we drove back through flagstaff and down to our cabin in Pine. where we stayed the night at grandma and grandpas. i was still pretty sick so it was nice to have grandma there to take care f me. she is very good at doing that. thanks grandma your the best. don't get me wrong Brandon is a good Dr but gmas have a special touch.

that was the end of our trip. we drove home Sunday afternoon.


Despite all our little set backs with me being sick we had a great trip. i still can't believe we have been married for 3 years. I Love Brandon so much and am so grateful for him.

Labor Day Weekend!

We had a fun weekend on saturday we went to a surprise party for my mom's best friend & my second mom Joann! she was very surprised. it was fun.
Happy Birthday JoAnn!

After the party we drove up to our cabin. on our way up we almost hit an elk. the stupid thing was standing in the middle of the road and wouldn't move. i am just glad i wasn't driving because it scared the crap out of me. that was the highlight of the drive along with singing disney songs;) Brandonn is a great singer ;)
here are some pics of our fun weekend
