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!!!
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.
Our first home together! On Golden Park Dr!!! We enjoyed it, it was a nice little neighborhood. These are just random pics of the house, it was cute for our first place together! It'll improve as time goes on!!!
The first sunny day of the season I took my nieces to the park!!! There were absolutely no parking spots. But that's ok, it was a nice day and Ashlyn and Aidyn had a blast! They were way excited to get to ride their bikes for the first time too!!!
So this is the last sleepover we had with my nieces, Ashlyn and Aidyn!!! It's also packing time! So Kass came over and helped me go through all of the baby clothes, sorting them by sizes and ugliness! Kalin (my sister-in-law) gives me hand-me-downs so I can start getting stuff together for the day when I might get prego...that's NOT an announcement btw. So, yes...Kass went through them and all the clothes that went into the UGLY pile, Ashlyn had to take out and try it on, hence the cute little dress with the funky built-in-shoes tights!!! Oh, and that hat she has on was hilarious!!! She had the hat on, and for some reason was so mad at Uncle Brandon that she screamed at the top of her lungs and hit him. I tried to be serious with her while putting her in time out, but she looked so funky in that hat, I couldn't help but burst out in laughter and she knew it was funny so she kept making this face that made me laugh even harder...I guess you had to be there... Anyways it was a blast! We packed, made a barbie cake, the nieces took baths, etc. It was fun like always!!!
ASHLYN & AIDYN I LOVE YOU AND AM GOING TO MISS YOU!!! But no worries, I'll be back soon enough!!!
I have to tell you the story behind "THE BLUE SHORTS!" They were bought one day for Brandon and according to a very reliable resource (his mom- Thank you Deanne!!!) we have come to find out that these shorts are his pride and joy!!! He seriously wore them for a week straight! They are reversible so he could turn them inside out every other day! He loves these nasty things more than anything you could ever imagine!!! He even packed them to take them on his mission, but his mom, the WONDERFUL woman than she is, stole them from his bag so he didn't ruin them while doing service on his mission. But he couldn't believe that his mom would do such a thing hehe
So you know how you have to have something borrowed, somtehing blue, something old, something new...Well if ya know me, I'm pretty random and love doing crazy things, so I decided to wear his BLUE shorts, as my something blue, under my wedding dress!!! It was pretty funny!
Anyways, my thought was to play a little joke and throw them away, but he would get sad whenever I would get ready to throw them away and I didn't have the heart to do it. So we each took turns hiding them, I would hide them but he would find and it went back and forth for a while. So I finally had to do something with them before we moved out of our house...so I did...and here's how it goes...
TOM(my lil bro) BUILDS THE FIRE
I THROW THEM IN THE FIRE (Ashlyn tries to get them out of the fire, she feels bad for her Uncle Brandon)
Kass wanted to make dinner for the four of us...and...well...we are pretty random. We start out playing Mexcian Train Dominoes, which leads to Broc getting out the nerf guns, which leads to...Broc entertaining us as the American Boy! (Sorry, it starts out sideways, but just watch, it turns around real quick!!!)
My hubby decided to go race for the first time at the fairgrounds in Jackson County! Not only did he race, but we had Mont, Broc, Parker, & Richard! It was a total blast! I took my nieces with me...neither of them could handle the noise at first but by the end they both wanted to be on the fence watching their Uncle Brandon's every move! Aidyn also decided that she wants to race just like the other girls there! It was adorable! Brandon won the first race, with his dad and then Richard following behind him! So the second race he had a closer race with a random guy. He was ahead all the way up to the last lap...then the guy right behind him decided to be an idiot and got tangled up with Brandon...you can see the video below, where he does a kart wheel!!! I am so happy his parents gave him a way early birthday present...a camcorder!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Thanks to them, I got it all on video....but after that last race, I lost all of the pics I took with our digital camera because I ran after Brandon..due to him being so incredibly happy, and well I ran and the camera must have fallen out somewhere along the way. So, no pics of the nieces or of anybody for that matter...just the videos of him racing!!!
Brandon & I were married 18 July 2008!!! We are loving every bit of marriage and are so thankful for being able to be sealed for time and all eternity in the Portland Temple! We love spending time with our family's and can't wait to start a family of our own!
