March 10th

i found out i needed surgery. so they sched me the next week. i had the surgery on thursday the 19th. i was very nervouse because like most dumb people i started looking stuff up online about the procedure and read all the worst possible senarios. word of advise don't ever do that. anywho... i am doing much better and everything went great. that weekend i lived in our recliner and watched ALOT of movies. i think i averaged 4 a day. lets just say i think i am movied out! well i guess not too much cuz i am watching a movie as i am writing this. lol here is a list of all the movies i watched that weekend and yes i know this is rediculoso:50 first dates, Mr. magoriums wonder imporium, pirates of the carabean, the time machine, my best friends wedding, iron man, transformers, australia, the holiday, death defying acts, better off dead, must love dogs, liar liar, failure to launch, guess who, somethings gotta give, elizabeth town, hitch, twilight, and last holiday. wow that was pretty pathetic....;>

i did get some beautiful flowers from family and friends this weekend here are some pics. i think i love flowers! but what girl doesn't.

i became Brace Face again. yes i got braces on. i work at a dental office in Gilbert and the Orthodontist that we refer to offers free Braces for our staff. and since i look more closely at my teeth than i ever did before i want them perfect. i guess it is the pressure of the job;> so i hopefully wont have to wear them for very long.. we will see....

so enough about me.....

now i can talk about Brandon

He is getting ready for GRADUATION!!!!!!

President Borak Obama is speaking at ASU's Graduation. I think this is very exciting. How often do you get to hear the President of the United States speak. in person. like NEVER. so My Mom. Brandon's Parents, His little brother and my Grandma will be going with me to watch the graduation. and don't worry i won't wait over a month to blog about it.

So i think that is it for an update about us. Hope everyone is doing well!

Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift!

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.
