Christmas in Denver!

This year Britton and I went to Denver to spend Christmas with his family. We left Tuesday night. Our flight was supposed to leave at 6:10, but we didn't board the plane until 10:30 that night. So we had fun talking and learning how to play sudoku while we waited at the airport. Well, we then finally made it to Britton's parents house at 1:30 and went straight to bed. We had a lot of fun with family on Christmas Eve.
We had a big Christmas Eve dinner. Here is the table all decorated. (Good job Dave for folding those napkins so nicely!)

We then sat around the Christmas tree and Britton's dad read us a picture book that had the story of Christ's birth. Then we opened our PJ's to wear Christmas Eve night.



We also had a lot of fun on Christmas Day! Here is a picture of us kids in our cute pj's!

Britton's little brother Preston got Guitar Hero: World Tour for Christmas and, of course, that is pretty much what we did the WHOLE day!


The next day we all went to see the movie "Marley and Me." I loved it! I cried like a baby and Britton said that he held back his tears. After the movie we got together with some of Britton's friends that are still in Denver to catch up and play some games. We love Linsday, Ben, and Brittany!

It was fun seeing Dave and Erin again. Erin is so cute pregnant and Britton and I are excited to have a niece soon!

Christmas Before Christmas!

Every year my siblings pick names of who to give presents to. This year, Britton and I picked Derek, Linsey, Braedon and Daxton. Since we weren't going to be here for Christmas we had them come over earlier so they could open their Christmas presents. Here they are at our house opening their presents.

The BIG Game!

Well, today is the day...BYU vs. U of U! As most of you know Britton is a Utah fan and I am a BYU fan. How do we survive without killing each other? Well, we both love our teams, but we do not get fanatic about it. I think we both realize that it is "just a game."



I found this shirt at the BYU Bookstore 3 years ago. I bought one for myself and I bought one for Britton and sent it to him on his mission. This shirt describes our situation perfectly!

Carrie Underwood Concert!

Britton got us tickets to go to the Carrie Underwood concert this last Wednesday. I was so sad because I had Parent Teacher Conferences that night. I told Britton that I couldn't go. He felt so bad, but then we decided that he would go to see the opening act and then I would just hurry after PTC to meet him. I made it right in time. I got there and sat right down...not even 2 minutes later they started the countdown for Carrie to come on. I was so happy that I could go. Our seats were right next to the mini stage that Carrie would walk down to get to her other stage. She slapped our hands every time she would walk past (which was about 7-8 times). We had so much fun!

Britton got to see Little Big Town

Our New House!

Sorry this post has taken forever. We have been so busy trying to get everything moved in and organized. And on top of that, I went back on track and then had Parent Teacher Conferences. So I finally have time to actually sit down and blog about our new house. We moved into our new house on Halloween! Moving is rough, but it is so worth it when you are done. We love our new house in Riverton (especially the 2 car garage)! Our house has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a half bath. Our house is still close to where I teach and where Britton goes to work. We haven't had too much time to decorate, but that all comes with time.
