Fun with the Fam


Well, over the past little while there's been some events that were tons of fun!  The Mother's Day bash was loads of fun with good food and even better company.  I love you mom!  





Then there was Paige's wedding.  She looked SO beautiful and so happy.  It was the first wedding I'd been to since my own so it was kind of exciting for me!  :)  I had lots of fun hanging out with Mudder and Stephy and Ty guy all day.  He is so dang cute!!!  (Apparently since he's the only one I took any pictures of! haha.  Sorry Steph and Mom!)

We are so lucky to be a part of such a fantastic family!  We love all of you guys so much!

In With The New!

About a week later, Braden's brother found us a sweet deal on a pickup at an auction in Salt Lake City so we went down and got it.  It was pretty much what we sold Rhonda for so it worked out perfectly!  Then, we found a 4-wheeler for about the same price as my dirt bike that we sold....  Just lucky I guess!  So now we have a new pick-up and a sweet four wheeler!  Yay!  The truck's name is King Julian (in honor of our favorite character on our fave movie - Madagascar 2) and the four-wheeler's name is Stella.  We love our two newest family members!  :)  Here's a picture of Stella.  I don't have any of the truck yet but I'll post some once I get them.  


Selling frenzy

We'd been trying to sell my car for a while so that we could buy a truck for our motorcycles an toys.  So when we came back from break we started selling everything.  We sold my car (Rhonda, you will be missed). 




Then we sold my motorcycle (which will not be missed! haha).  Here's some tribute photos!  :)  Out with the old!  










We kept Braden's dirt bike though... Who would get rid of such a beautiful bike!?  




Spring Break


















Wow, so time flies right by and you don't even notice. Time for some catching up. The next fun thing that we did was take a trip for spring break. We drove and drove and drove to St. George to escape the cold. We stayed one night with Grandma and Grandpa Stoddard before they had to go back home so that was fun. We hiked in snow canyon and just kind of hung out, played tennis, swam, and chilled. It was really fun!
























Then we decided to go to Vegas for a few days. We walked all over the strip, went to in and out burger (yummy!), went to the temple, and stayed at the Stratosphere. It was a lot of fun. On the way home we stopped at Braden's favorite motorcycle shop in Payson so that kind of compensated for all the time I spent shopping in Vegas! :) We had a blast, just the two of us for four days.

Joining the Realm of Blogging

Well, Everyone's been saying how much fun blogging is because it helps you stay in touch so we've decided to play too. I hope this helps us stay in touch with you all better!
Well, Braden and I haven't been Braden and I for too long.  We've only been through a few things worth reporting so far!  :)  First of course, was our wedding day!  Happiest day of my life!  I really couldn't wipe my smile off all day!  And for that matter, I still can't!  We're still living the life of newlywed-ness... ya know, no money, no food, lots of homework, and lots of work to pay the bills.... but it really is bliss!  :)  















Then, we went to Belize!  :)  We joined Whitney and my parents on a little Christmas vacation to the greatest place on earth!  It was fun to finally introduce my new hubby to my brother... kind of a weird concept really.  It was such a fun trip though!  Thanks dad and mom for letting us come!  And Steve and Jess, we miss you lots and can't wait to see you again!
















And well, here we are now 4 months down the road just living life to the fullest!
