Happy Halloween!

Okay, so this year was Brian's year to choose our costumes. Last year he was a really good sport and dressed up like this:

(yes, he is wearing tights :)

So this year was payback and of course he went extreme...

It was really embarrassing cuz we went to a party with all my friends and all the girls were in cute lady bug or pirate costumes and I showed up looking like death. Don't worry, next year is my choice and I already have some great ideas!

???

I am super confused at this point. I posted a blog with some fun wedding pics but it's under the cabo one and I have no idea why. Just an fyi for ya :)

Cabo San Lucas!!!

So my new husband and I are kinda spoiled and were able to go on a cruise to Cabo and Ensenada for our honeymoon! It was so much fun up until the last night when Brian got food poisoning. We went to get him some medicine and the medical center put us on confinement in our room until the next day so we were stuck watching Juno over and over. Good memories :)

On the beach in Cabo!


View of Cabo from the ship

Our fun little formal night!

The ship had like 7 pools (I may be exaggerating a tiny bit) so on the sea days we just layed out and ate everything we could!

In front of our fabulous little ship!

At a restaurant in Ensenada... our dinner was only $12 for both of us!

Our awesome dinner group, two were honeymooners and two were on their 7 year anniversary. The joke was always on Brian because he never liked any of the fancy food they had so he would always have to order another dish and it would always be salmon. And for dessert he would always get the chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream... good times!

Brian entered the ping pong tournament and completely dominated the first round... there were 6 :)

Our taxi ride home :(

We did a mile walk for breast cancer awareness! And yes, Brian was thrilled :)

When we were in Cabo the little kids kept begging us to buy stuff and I felt so bad so we bought like everything but then we ran out of cash and the little girl latched onto me and wouldn't let go. It's funny now, but so sad at the time.

At a restaurant in Cabo. 4 pieces of shrimp, 3 baby tacos, and a diet coke... 35 dollars!

On the beach in Cabo! The water was so warm and perfectly blue and the sand was so soft... It was perfect!

So I know these pictures aren't in any kind of order but for some reason the copy and paste is not working so here is the jist of it

Wedding Time!!!

Disclaimer: Um I have no idea how the title "wedding time" posted on my blog but it did. I also have no idea how to get rid of it so just ignore that :)

I don't have my official wedding pics yet which is such a bummer but I do have some of my family:)

My cutest Brian with his jitters

Gma W, Sar, and Mommy... my sister is making that face on purpose... she is a very special girl :)

Neal, Tiff, Mommy, and Sar

My 3 little bros, Kauner, Raym, and Randal. It was awesome how they totally bonded

Me, Savanna, Michelle, and Sicily getting manicures and pedicures before the big day!

Sarah, Sicily, Savanna, and Brian... You can tell he's happy to be there :)

Cathy, me, and Sar. Thank you so much Cathy for doing my wedding video, it is amazing!

Me and my future husband at our rehearsal. He was so funny when he first came in cuz he was all pale and clamy and a little testy. It probably didn't help that my mom kept laughing at him... it really was funny :)

Brian, me, and my grandma and grandpa Wright. My grandma made sure that I wore something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a penny in my shoe!

I should have more of everyone but I am so disorganized right now so I have no clue where they are. I just want to say thank you to Mark, Paityn, James, Sicily, Riley, Savanna, Kauner, Sar, Raym, and Randal for being in our wedding party... you guys were great! And thank you Raym for wearing your flower even though it was "for girls!"

And once again, there is no rhyme or reason to the order of the pictures :)

Wedding Time!!!

Happy 23rd Birthday To My Brian!!!

Today Brian turned the big 2-3! Happy Birthday babe! We started the day off with balloons and breakfast at Gandolfo's followed by a full day of school. Then his parents were so awesome and took us all to Chili's where we got to enjoy the fabulous chocolate molten lava cake! We then finished the day off with a couple rounds of Settlers and of course my Bri Bri won both times! And so to honor this wonderful man I thought I would share one of my favorite memories involving him: It was winter time with about a foot of snow on the ground. Me and Brian were walking out of his house and I decided to be sneaky and attempt to throw a snowball at him. Now before I tell you what happened, you must know that I had tried this about a dozen times before and never once hit him. So I sweetly call out Briiiaaan... he turns around and BAM! The snowball hit him square in between the eyes! So hilarious because he had glasses on which got all covered in snow so he couldn't see. The best part of this story is Brian's reaction, he just stood there. I'm cracking up, dancing around trying not to pee my pants and Brian is just standing there stunned! This may have been one of those stories where you had to be there, but let me tell ya, it was funny! Love you Brian!!!

Home Sweet Home... Kinda

So Brian and I are getting married on October 10th and we're in the process of finding a house! In the meantime, I needed a place to stay without getting into a contract so I decided to rent out the basement of one of my dad's houses in Orem. Now, I lived there when I was younger and it seemed nice enough, so I thought it would be quite enjoyable... I was wrong. As we walk down the steps to this humble abode I notice there is duct tape holding one of the windows together. Hmm, I'm pretty sure that's not normal. We walk into the kitchen, it needs a little paint job, ya know, 10 or so spiders here and there, the living room seems okay with the exception that the carpet is so dirty I can't walk barefoot on it... no big deal right? Next is the bathroom, just a few more spiders and a showerhead that looks as though it's coming out of the wall, which by the way only sprays the window unless I hold it. Last but not least... my room. It honestly isn't that bad, it just needs a paint job, blinds, and a little spider spray and I should be good to go :)



Notice the two steps in the closet... yep I'm livin' the good life! :)
Hopefully just another month and I can quit checking everywhere for bugs! On the plus side, it feels good to be back in Utah :)
