Bragging about Brandon!

okay so i feel like i might brag a little too much about Brandon but.... i have too because 1. he won't do it himself. he has some sort of problem talking about himself(a problem everyone knows i don't have! lol) and 2. because he is so awesome!

So on Friday Brandon took the GMAT exam. Brandon took it so he could apply for a scholorship, because the scholorship requires it. the test is scored from 200-800. brandon told me that above 700 and below 300 are uncommon. and Brandon got a 720. he is in the top 5% of anyone who has taken the test. I am so proud of him. He is such a smartie pants but i love it. he is amazing!
I LOVE YOU Brandon! good job honey!

Oak Creek Canyon!

For valentines Day this year brandon and i decided to go on a camping trip. For christmas we bought ourselves camping stuff so we figured we should test it all out. well little did we know that a huge snow storm was coming our way the week before we were to leave. so we got a little worried that we wouldn't be able to drive to our campsite. we decided to go anyway. we had a lot of fun. But was it cold! we had to go buy me toe warmers because my toes kept freezing. we now have a list of things to buy for snow camping;) we will be better prepared next time.
our campsite was great we want to plan another trip and bring a group up so if anyone is interested in going on a group caming trip let me know.
anyway we had so much fun.
here are some pics from our trip.

superbowl party

we went to Joann and Dan's house for the superbowl. it was very fun. my mom got there a little late but she did manage to win the halftime pot. Go Mom! anyway we were bumbed that the Cards didn't pull off a win but they sure did give the steelers a run for their money. here are some pics from the night.

Masters Here we come!

So we got some exciting news this week. Brandon got accepted into the Masters program at ASU's WP Carey School of Business. i am so proud of him and all the hard work he has done. He will gradate this May with his Bachelors degree in Accounting. then he will have a 6 week internship this summer with CBIZ (an accounting firm in Phx), and then he will start the masters program in the fall. i am so excited for him to almost be done! he has worked so hard over the past couple years. and he has accomplished some great things. I love you Brand!

And the other fun news is... we got a New CAR!!!! hallelujah! we got a 2008 Nissan Altima! it is black. this is pretty much the car i have wanted for a while. so knock on wood but hopefully this is the end of MY bad luck with cars. hehe
