Cute...

In a previous blog I posted a photo of my handsome man with a few of his friends- and they are all wearing matching t-shirts. They totally crack me up. Well...in my husbands words: *NERD ALERT* the NEW halo game came out this week and my husband and his friend Eric took a day off work to play! These are their NEW shirts for the occasion:




Gotta love it.

One Year

I can't believe that my man and I have been married for one year all ready! It feels like we were married just a couple months ago. September is the month of the big day and we decided to celebrate all weekend!


Friday Night: Our favorite author was in Salt Lake for a book reading and signing. Terry Brooks (author of the Shannara series) is so funny and clever and just a great author. If you haven't tried his books- you definitely should. It was awesome and so so fun to hear him read a section of his new book coming out next year! And it was great to meet him and get my favorite book of his signed.

Us with Terry Brooks!




Saturday was our actual anniversary. We went out to eat at Tucano's in Provo. That is where we met 4 years ago! Love it. We then stayed at a bed and breakfast called Somewhere Inn Time.



We stayed in the coolest room called "Sleepy Hollow". (MUCH better than the free room we stayed in the night we were married. Ha ha) It had a huge jacuzzi tub that overlooked the back yard and gazebo. It also had a huge TV and couch so we enjoyed watching The Dark Knight and eating a delicious cake I surprised Scott with.


Awesome Room


Fabulous Gifts we surprised each other with. Scott got a car cover for his Mustang and I got a wedding print for our home




Amazing Jacuzzi Tub
Yummy Cake

I had a fabulous weekend with my hubby. I love you so much Scott and can't wait for our next years of marriage. You are the absolute best husband I could ever ask for! Happy One Year Anniversary!!

More Completed Projects

We have been in our home officially over one year! I can't believe how fast the time flies and I can't believe how different our home looks! It is so fun to add your own personal touch to your very own home.







I have had many projects I have wanted to do since we moved in and I have never finished them. One of my main projects for our downstairs huge blank wall- is done! Doesn't look too impressive but it took a lot of time and a lot of my husbands skill for being a perfectionist :)

Voila! Family Wall!






Most of the pictures are from our wedding last September but there are a few pictures not from the wedding because my brother got home from his mission and we have a new niece. But it turned out pretty well and we will just continue to add to it!

Schmidty!

As most of you know, I play the piano. (Or TRY to, anyway) And one of my favorite pianists is Jon Schmidt. His "Waterfall" song is one of my all time favorite songs to play. Well on Saturday my Honey and I went to see him in concert at the Thanksgiving Point Waterfall Amphitheater! I could not believe how many people were there

My man was kind enough to let me drag him out there. But I think he had a good time as well.

The concert was a lot of fun and Jon Schmidt is pretty funny in concert.

Before we went to the concert Scott found a new tree for our backyard. (Still doing lots of work on the yard and fixing it up. We cut down a HUGE apple tree and are planting this new tree) We only own small sporty cars. But the people at the nursery said they could get the tree to fit in the Mazda. This is how Scott drove home. Hysterical.

The Gals

The past few years my old girlfriends and I have somewhat drifted apart. Sad stuff. But I still love them and consider them my best friends.



This weekend we all got together and went to a reception and then went out to eat. We had such good laughs talking about our High School Days and remembering all the random, hysterical stuff we used to do together. I miss these girls and I had such a great time spending the evening with them!








Note to my girls: If you are reading this- We need to get together again soon!! And I mean it! Love you all!




Since we had a girls night out... the boys decided to play some halo. Before I left for my evening all the guys showed up and I was laughing SO hard because they were ALL in the exact same shirt. UNPLANNED- supposedly. It is a shirt that Eric aka Wiggles Brown designed and made for them. It is their halo shirts and it has a picture of Master Cheif (whoever THAT is).



Very cute you guys!
