438th Christmas Party

Tonight we attended Braden's Army Christmas Party. Braden had to dress in his Class A's and I had to dress up. It was at Club Hill on Hill Air Force Base. Braden tonight was promoted to Sgt. He was really excited. Sgt. Wayment has a nice ring to it doesn't it? They showed a slideshow of pictures throughout the year in the unit and then we had a nice dinner. It turned out to be quite a lovely evening. Braden's parents attend the dinner with us as well.

Don't we make such a cute couple?

We sure do clean up nice don't we?

Ring Christmas Bells

On Dec. 13 Braden, Kinzi, Danny, and I got tickets to the Ring Christmas Bells Concert at the Conference Center. It was a really great way to enjoy Christmas music and spend time together. We had a great time. I do have to admit Danny did get a little bored so Braden and I let him play games on our phones. We also told him that if he is good then we will take him to get a treat.

Kinzi had us take her to Kristi's house after the concert so she could have a sleep over. And Braden and I decided to take Danny to Chili's. He was a little reluctant. He wanted to go to A&W not a "nice" resturant. (He's never been to Chili's) When we walked in we were just going to order dessert but we discovered that we were really hungry cause everything smelled so good. We ended up eating an appetizer, dinner, and dessert. Braden and I really enjoyed spending time with Danny. He is a really funny kid. Thanks Danny for hanging out with us.

Festival of Trees

On December 6th Braden and I took Justin to the Festival of Trees. We had a blast. There were so many cool trees and lots of activities for Justin to participate in.

Justin at the Entrance.

This tree was made with just lights. Justin thought it was really cool.

This was Braden's favorite tree. The Utah Jazz tree.

This tree was Justin's favorite. If you look closely it has balls running down it and it is all like a big wooden toy.

They had a bunch of activites for kids to do and this was Justin's favorite. He stood in the middle while they made a bubble around him. Then he got to blow and make more bubbles. It was really neat. He also enjoyed the tree you got to stick your hand in the whole and pull out a prize. Braden and I had a lot of fun. Thank you Justin for going with us.

Ready for Christmas

At our house we are all ready for Christmas. Christmas is such a fun time of year. I love the snow, the decorations, and being able to share this time with friends and family.

Utah v. BYU

UTES vs BYWho.....

This year Braden and I had the opportunity to go to the UTAH v. BYU game at Rice Eccles on Nov. 22nd. It was so much fun. We had a blast. We dressed in all of our Utah gear and showed the Utes some love. It was one of the best games all season. And by the way we bleed UTE RED!!

Look at all the RED!

The Crowd was crazy!!

First Quarter and the Utes were up by 7!

Utes won 48-24!!

Twilight

On 11/22/08 at 11:45 am...

The Colledge Girls along with Braden's Mom and April Johnson (my mom's neighbor) went to see a movie about some vampires.... Twilight!! It was the best movie ever. We have all been waiting so long to see it. We have all read the books and just loved them. It was a fun girls day out. We can't wait until the next movie comes out.

Ute Basketball Game 11/18/08

Tonight Braden and I went on a date. After he picked me up from work we ran some errands then grabbed dinner at Hires Big H. Is there anything better then hamburgers, onion rings, and shakes? After dinner we went to the Ute basketball game. Kristi gave us some tickets she got from work, so it turned out to be a pretty cheap date. :) Thanks babe for going on a date with me!! I love you!

Last night Justin and I went to Disney on Ice 100 years of magic. It was so fun. We had a blast. Our seats were on the 6th row! So we were up close and could see everything! Justin got some cotton candy and it had a crown w/ears attatched to it. And he wanted this Buzz Lightyear arm. So that is what he is wearing in this picture.
This is how close we were!

The End!

Welcome to our blog. Braden and I have been dating for almost three years. Our dog Oscar has been with us for two years. Braden and I met through a mutual friend. Our first date went great and we have spent almost everyday together since. Oscar was a nice addition to our little family. He keeps us very entertained and goes almost everywhere with us. I don't know if that turned out to be a good thing or not because now he hates it whenever we leave him. Braden is in the Army Reserve and when he is not off at drill he works for TSA (Airport Security). So if you are ever flying somewhere make sure you say hello when you go through security. As for me I work part-time for a law firm in Salt Lake City. When Braden and I aren't working we like to go to Jazz games, Bees games, movies, or out to dinner. I hope you enjoy our blog. Thanks for stopping by, come again!!
