Brandon's First Day w/ People in Denver

Brandon's first day of work selling security systems in Denver! Sounded like he had a great time...door to door all over again...you think he would have had enough of that over the 2 years he was in England. But I guess he misses it, so he wants to make people safe hehe

Easter Sunday!!!

Had a sleepover last night (due to some ppl getting to town too late to get keys to their apartments hehe), ate breakfast, wrote in journal, went to church, ate lunch, took Easter pics, played games, went to Uncle Stephen's for Easter dinner. We had delicious dinner!!!! Celebrated Carston's 2nd birthday!!! It was so adorable!!! He is just so cute and I'm so sad I didn't take my camera with me to show you just how adorable he is, but I will post some eventually this summer!!! He had an Elmo cake that Aunt Nicole made (professional) and Ashley made a pinata that he couldn't even put a dent in lol!!! Then we watched Bedtime Stories, it was a pretty cute movie, definitely worth watching at least once!!! Then made the Easter phone calls this evening, called all of my family!!! I miss everyone so much!!! I can't believe how much I miss everyone, no offense, but I didn't think I would miss everyone this much!!! It's like we are always told...we don't realize how much we miss something until we don't have it anymore... We love and miss y'all!!! Can't wait to see you again!!!

HAPPY EASTER!!!

Colorado!!!

We finally are off on our new adventure! We left on Tuesday, the 7th, to head to Centerville, UT to stay with Brandt and Kelli!!!  (BTW, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LETTING US STAY WITH YOU!!!) We stayed there Tues. and Wed. night, then left to Denver on Thursday! We are now here staying with Brandon's Uncle Stephen until we can move into our place tomorrow evening! We are having a great time seeing all of his family, we just don't enjoy the looooooong drive, but thanks to my wonderful man, he drove all the way from grants pass to centerville and centerville to denver minus about three hours!!! It's fabulous when you just get to relax, sleep, etc. 

Oh and Brandon totally made fun of me, but I thought it was sweet...when we first get off the freeway in aurora (right outside denver) we saw like a thousand prairie dogs in this dirt field! It was pretty sweet I thought, but I guess I have a lot to see in this world, if I think that is sweet, I wonder what I'll think when I see dolphins in the ocean lol

Card Making

Laura got me into this and I absolutely love it! You can make some cute stuff...I'm still in my early stages, I'll get better!!!

Auntie Bell...

The girls get antzy being in the car for ten minutes. They have never been on a long raod trip before. Aidyn slept all of about 20minutes on our way up there. The whole time I heard, "Are we there yet?" "When are we gonna see Nana?" "When do we get to see the doggies?" "I wanna go to McDonalds" You learn to ignore her after so long.




Multnomah Falls, Ashlyn hates being dirty as you will later find out, she was disgusted at how dirty her hands were after holding onto the rail lol.





On the road...jolly ranchers, Ashlyn's "tinky" (stinky) toes and Mickey D's.






At the mall!!!

This picture is for you Deanne!!!



The 5 of us got manicures!!! You can't tell but Aidyn has wax on her hands, it makes your hands so soft! She thought is was so neat, while Ashlyn thought it was disgusting and wouldn't touch it...SHE'S A CLEAN FREAK!!!


Making pendants for necklaces!!! Thanks to a very amazing person who taught me how!!!





I did my mom's hair!!! Cut about a foot off it and colored it. I can't believe she let me do her hair, but she has had a million compliments on it and is so glad she got her hair done by a non-professional!!! (Sorry these pics were late at night cuz that's the only chance we had to do it. She's a cutie though, I promise!!!)




"Auntie Bell, look it...Aidyn kissed my hand hehehehe"

Michelle's first time GOLFING!!!

This was my first time golfing! Brandon had an amazing first swing, but we hadn't actually started the game yet. Once we started the actual competetion...well lets just say he should have been pretty embarrassed, it took him...TOO many tries...to get the ball ten feet! It was so funny, I almost tinkled in my pants hehe!!!




We were absolutely freezing (if ya can't tell), but it was fun anyways!

The pond...Mont gives everybody a dollar who can get the ball over the pond. Money talks...every single one of us got it over the pond, that was the only good hit I had, and it did take some of us a few more tries to get the ball over the pond instead of in it!!!

Races...B & B won trophies!!!

They raced inside earlier in the day before the pro's raced and showed em' how racing really is supposed to look! I'm just teasing, the boyz did a great job, and so did Kass, but she took off a little early so she didn't get her trophy.
