Sun & Fun

We are off to sunny St. George tomorrow! We are so excited to take a break and enjoy the sun. We're gonna lay out at the pool, go golfing, go out to eat and who knows what else. I really am excited, even if it is just for a couple days. School starts next week, so we might as well take advantage of not having homework, right? Other exciting news:

Our new car

Our old car, Brady loved this car SO much!

A couple weeks ago we took advantage of the "cash for clunkers" program and got ourselves a new Nissan Sentra. We love it! It's so cute and fun--we were both sad to see the Chrysler New Yorker Fifth Avenue go (it was Brady's favorite car, next to the Dodge Spirit he drove when he was 16), but this will be a good change and will last us a long time. I even asked the salesman if it could fit 2 car seats in the back. I'm just thinking ahead for when that time comes. :)

Time to Play Catch Up

It has been a long time since I've updated our blog. Lots of fun stuff has been going on. We are both in summer school, which is time consuming, but it's good because we are both busy and feel very productive. I cut a few inches off my hair and cut my bangs again, it's a nice change, but I'm still in the midst of getting used to the length. Here are just some pictures of us...

Brady thought the fake tattoo on his arm was pretty sweet. Thank goodness it's not real.

Our cute nephew Brigden was born and we already love him so much! When I look at this picture I can't help but imagine us with a little baby (whenever that might be). How exciting! Brigden is so sweet and I love holding him. Maybe it's the "mother" in me, but I can just hold him and stare at him, he is so precious. Congrats Phil and Alesha!

We've been enjoying spending time with our family this summer. This is obviously before Alesha delivered, but she looks cute as ever pregnant.

A couple weeks ago, Brady and I went to Abravanel Hall to see Joel McHale from The Soup. Oh my gosh, he is hilarious!! We watch The Soup every Saturday morning and had such a fun time seeing him in person.

While we were waiting outside of Abravanel Hall, Brady fell asleep on the grass. I could do nothing but take pictures of us! It was such a nice night and we had such a great time!

Here is Joel signing autographs. You only were able to get a picture with him and an autograph if you bought a t-shirt and they only accept cash. We, of course, didn't have any cash so we had to sneak pictures of him before we got kicked out. Oops!

Joel again signing away...

My friend, Sarah, moved to Arizona last year to be with her boyfriend (now fiance) and she came up over Memorial Day weekend so we all went to dinner together. We went to The Pie--yummy--and had a great time. I miss her so much. I was great to get together and catch up.

We were missing quite a few girls (Mindy, Missy, Chelsie, Mekensy, etc.) but we had a great time!

I also was able to meet up with another of my friends who moved to Arizona a few years ago. Carlyn and I were the best of friends when we worked at Electric Beach and then we just drifted apart. It has been so great to spend time with my friends this summer!!

My work had its annual Summer Party last weekend at Sugar House Park and it was so much fun. Here are the committee members...

Brady climbing the enormous rock wall! I totally chickend out because it was way too high for me. I was the supportive wife who took the pictures.

Me and Katie at the "Howdy Y'all" sign as you walked into our pavillion.

The summer so far has been really good! I'm glad it's finally starting to be nicer weather and we can actually enjoy it, geez!

Well, On Second Thought...

As you can see from last post-heading, I thought I was back in action with this blog stuff, but I guess I was wrong. It's been two months since then and I have no new posts! I am really bad at this--why??

Brady and I were looking at our blog the other night and I realized how much I love doing this. It is a great way to "scrapbook" my pictures and "journal" what's going on in our lives. It's been hard because I got signed up with Facebook and I feel like doing both is just way too much (it's really not, I'm just lazy) and it's repetitive. But for my own sake, I am going to start this again. I am going to do one final "catch up" post and then I'll be back on track. For those of you who care, check back, probably tomorrow, and you can see what us Morlock's have been up to.

Be in touch!!

I'm Back!

Okay, I'm back in action with this blog stuff. Now that the semester is just about over, I feel like I have time to spend updating this thing. Brady and I have been really great--just working and doing the school thing. We went to a couple Jazz playoff games and had a blast! I almost lost my voice from screaming and my throat hurt for 2 days afterwards! We had so much fun. Here are some pictures.... Eating at Rumbis before one of the games

Me and Katie

We snuck down to the 10th row at the end of the 4th quarter when people were leaving; if only our seats were this close!

On the court afterwards. How cool.

Go D-Will!

One thing that wer're looking forward to this summer is going to see Joel McHale in June at Abravanel Hall. I don't know how many of you watch The Soup on E!, but he is so funny! We watch his show every Saturday morning and when he said he was coming to Utah, we had to get tickets. We are so excited! Oh also, we finally got a new computer and we love it.

*LIFE IS GOOD*

Small Update

I feel like I'm always trying to play catch up with my blog--I am such a slacker! Not too much has gone on since my last post, and I don't have any pictures to post either, I'm really boring. School for Brady and I is going well and I think I'm getting really good grades...my fingers are crossed! We are getting ready to register for summer semester--the sooner we get done with school, the better, although we have a ways to go. Once I take some new pictures, I'll post them, but until next time......

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. :)

Dang Computer!

I'm so bugged because our computer completely stopped working last week (I'm using my parents computer right now)...hence, the reason I haven't posted anything in a couple weeks. What a hassle! We're going to see if my brother can fix it, but if not, a new computer is on its way. I'll post something fun as soon as we are up and running. I have some fun pictures of the last week or two, so keep checking in with us!
