Wow, Time To Catch Up!

Whoa, I swear that I haven't given up on this blogging thing, I just haven't had time to go to my parents house to update it! But, here I am, finally updating our blog. It's been a crazy couple weeks since my last update, so thanks to President's Day, I have a day off and some time to do this. Thanks Mr. President... Brady has been sick, seriously for the last month or so, and it morphed into Bronchitis, so sad. He's been coughing his lungs out, he had a fever, he's been throwing up and all that good stuff that goes along with being sick. When we went to Insta-Care on Friday, (thanks Karen), they did an oxygen test to see how much oxygen was in his lungs and he only had 93%; obviously it should be 100%, so no wonder he's been having a hard time breathing and going outside in the cold air! He's been on antibiotics now for 4 days and he seems to be doing better. Let's hope it just goes up from here.

On January 31st, the big UFC fight took place- Bj Penn vs. Georges St. Pierre. We had a great time hanging out with our friends and celebrating Brady's birthday. Brady wanted BJ Penn to win, but he got dominated, so needless to say, he wasn't very happy. Here is a picture of us with Brady sporting his Hawaiian lei's and his BJ Penn shirt. (BJ Penn is from Hawaii). This was obviously taken before the fight, otherwise Brady wouldn't be smiling and giving a fist-pump.

A couple weeks ago, Brady and I went to the Melting Pot and it was so much fun! I've only been there once and he'd never been, so it was fun to go together. Our reservation was at 5:30 and we didn't get done until around 8:30; if you ever plan to eat there, make sure you allot yourself enough time. The appetizers were great- cheese fondue with chips, carrots, broccoli and apples for dipping. The salad was excellent- leafy greens with black raspberry viniagarette. The main course was to die for (pictured below)- vegetables, shrimp, ravioli, lobster tail, chicken, beef, sirloin, salmon etc. The pot next to the food is what we cooked it in, it was so good! After my stomach was so full of food, the dessert came out, which I couldn't pass up, and it was by far the best part! Bananas, cheesecake, brownies, strawberries, pound cake and marshmallows all dipped in a chocolate fondue. MMMMM!
Here I am enjoying my chocolate-covered strawberries
Here is Brady showing off the dessert plate. We had already eaten a few things off of it before I realized we should take a picture.
And yes, Brady has his mustache in these pictures because these pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago. He did shave it off and he looked so handsome, but now he wants to see if he can grow a beard. Oh boy, we'll see how that goes. :)
