Just a little thing I like to call a LONG post. Sorry Guys.

So I am going to post about three different nights into one post, so here goes.......
First on the list, we had Wren's family over for his mom's birthday dinner last night. It was so much fun! I made rice and enchilada's (okay I have no idea how to spell that?) Willow brought an amazing salad and we just hung out and talked. They also are having a guy, named Denny from Brasil, staying with them. We love Denny so much and he makes family gatherings complete! He is so funny and he is our brand new brother ;) Welcome to the family Denny!
Next in this FABULOUS list of events, ha ha, our bestest friend Chanty Panty and her husband Miguel are in town from Indiana. Oh my gosh, it was SOOOOOO good to see them!!! We had so much fun catching up, and when Michy, Chanty, S-bob (Sara was there too, she's just not in the pictures)and Savvy get together, it's trouble. We seriuosly can drag any story on for a VERY long time, a much TOO long of time, thank you very much. We pride ourselves on this one fact alone. We also love to laugh and laugh and laugh. And our husbands LOVE us SO much when we do these wonderfully comical things, huh guys????? Our husbands are also best friends for life with each other because of us, they can thank us for it later. Anyway, we cannot even wait for them to move back, we miss having them here, but it was so fun to see them! See you two on spring break people!
Last, Sara and Dev, Mich and Mark, and Wren and I went up to Snowbird last week to go hot tubbing. It was SO much fun, but so so friggin cold! It was well below zero. Anyway, the hot tubs are outside and getting to and from the hot tubs from inside was the hardest part, it was seriously so undescribeabely (I don't know how to spell that one either???) cold. But as we were sitting there, we felt our hair getting harder and harder. We didn't even get out hair wet, but somehow it was literally freezing into strands. Everyone kept laughing at my hair, so Wren gunned it to my purse and got our camera to take a picture of it so I could see it. Well then, like always, we got a little camera happy, and well, have a look for yourself, it was so CRAZY, and I'm sure completely unhealthy! Anyway, it was so much fun. After we were done, and all felt a little under the weather (literally) we drove down the canyon, it was so icy by the way and I almost had a heart attack from fear (my poor husband) But when we got down, we went to scone cutter and got sconed!!!! And we got hot chocolate and had some interesting conversations ;) ha ha. It was such a fun night and we love all our family and friends SO much!!!!!! Thanks for the fun week everyone!

Christmas time baby!

We had such a fabulous Christmas this year! We got to spend lots of time with both of our families. It was definitely crazy but so much fun! We started Christmas Eve night by going to dinner with my family at the Olive Garden. It was DELICIOUS people! After, we went over to Wren's parents house. His mom always does a really neat lesson and we exchange gifts with the siblings. Everyone gave such fun things. It was so much fun! When we finished up there, Wren and I came back to our apartment and opened the presents we got for each other. It was way fun spending our first Christmas together! Then on Christmas Day, we went to Wren's house and opened presents from his mom and dad. They are way too sweet and gave us FAR too much. Willow and Carter started breakfast and we rushed up to my families house to open gifts with them. It's always a comical time on Christmas morning with my family since all of us are SO not morning people. But it was fun to get presents from my brothers and sisters, they are so sweet. My parents gave us way too much as well. We always say how lucky we are to have such neat parents. After this, we went back to Wren's house to eat a fabulous breakfast and talk to Wren's brother McKinley who is on his mission in Brasil. It was so fun to talk to him and to hear Wren speak Portuguese with him. They are talented boys. Next we went to my grandparents and ate way too much, followed by seeing the movie Valkyrie with Adam and Em's family. We had such a fun Christmas this year thanks to our wonderful families! We hope everyone had tons of fun as well and we love you all very much! HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Last night, Wren and I went to see the lights with one of Wren's favorite missionary companions, Jason and his wife Andrea. It was so much fun. We love talking with them and I love Andrea, she is so cute. They are living in Spain right now, and Wren and I are pretty dead set on flying out there and staying with them in March or April. They live right on the beach and have an extra bedroom for us! Andrea said they have amazing shopping. How much freakin fun would that be????? So everyone be on the lookout for cheap flights to Spain mmmkay? After looking at the lights, we went down to this really cute coffee shop and got hot chocolate and just talked. It was the perfect night. I dressed perfect for the occasion, I layered and layered and layered, normally I would have been completely unprepared and would have froze my butt off, but nope, not me, I'm a smart lady now, thanks to my smart husband, and I think that attributed to such a warm, fun night! Anyway, it really gave us that Christmas spirit and we are SO excited for tonight and tommorrow. I can't wait to give Wren his presents! I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday, I love you all! Merry Christmas People!

~Christmas Party~

So a couple of days ago, I had all of our friends over for a Christmas party. It was so much fun! I love them all so much. My amazing manager made Chili for our party, which was to die for, and everyone else brought lots of other yummy things. We had a fun gift exchange and I made a slideshow of pictures of us over the last three years. I love talking and laughing with all of them, my stomach hurts so bad from laughing by the end of the night! Even though most of them don't have blogspots (which is way annoying by the way) I still want to say how much I love all of you and I don't know what I would even do without you guys! Your the best!

Happy Holidays

So I haven't really put anything too interesting on here for awhile. I just keep forgetting to take pictures. We have had lot's of fun decorating out tree and christmas shopping these last couple weeks. We're so excited for christmas. School is finally over and I can't even tell you how happy we are! We have a whole month off and we keep saying we won't even know what to do when we get home from work??? But I know what we'll do....watch lots and lots of DVR! Ha ha I have been recording Oprah everyday and Wren seriously loves Oprah now, his excuse is that it helps us learn a lot about the world, but I know he secretly just likes her. It is the funniest thing, but I definitley am not complaining when he begs me to watch it, but sometimes....... I'm like, no Wren, we need to play xbox and watch Simpsons ;) Ha, KIDDING, I would never put myself through that. Okay well, anyway. I'm going to post some pictures below of my little sister Katelyn's birthday party. My family went ice skating down at the Galivan Center a couple of weeks ago and ate pizza. It was really fun even though it is was frickin freazing! My baby sister is getting so old, I cannot even believe it! it seems like just yeterday she was born. I babysat her, and my other sister and brother all the time. It's sad how time flies by. When we were little my dad would take us to do the funnest things everyday when he would get home from work. We would go to the pet stores, movies, ice skating, you name it we did it. We were Salt Lake Valley travelers we were! (When I was young, I used to think I would grow up and become a figure skater one day! Ha ha Tara if you read this, member we always used to go to that one ice skating place in Bountiful? Member my second birthday party and my huge Tutu my mom made me? Ha ha those were the days, and we told everyone we were twins!?) But I love these memories I have with my dad, I love him and my mom so much! Wow, anyway, so I'm going to post a family picture we just had taken, by my mom of course(if anyone needs family pictures or a wedding done, go to my mother, she's awesome!) Well I hope everyone has a happy holiday! I'll end my novel now. Love you all!
My amazing family.
