Disneyland

I somehow skipped over these pictures and didn't add them into my post below; for journaling purposes, I want to be sure they are included.

Here is pic of us in front of the Staples Center. What a fun night! At the game

We went to Disneyland on February 6th and we had such a great time. Brady's friend, Danny, called a few weeks before that and asked us if we'd be interested in going with him and his girlfriend, Erin. After talking about it, we decided we should go because A) Brady has never been and B) we thought we should go before we have kids; so we booked it! It was a nice vacation and we had a lot of fun. Here are some of the pics from the trip (I took a lot of pictures, so beware!)

This is the first day we were in California; we stopped in Hollywood--so fun!

The wax museum

Oh Marilyn...

Disneyland!!

What is Disneyland if you don't go on the teacups? As a kid, I thought these were the best thing ever, but as an adult my thoughts are a little different. I was a little sick afterwards, but it was still fun.

It rained the second day at Disneyland so we were sure to wear our jackets. It was so great though because there were literally no lines and it wasn't too cold--it was perfect!

Brady was a little disappointed in the infamous castle; he thought it was going to be much bigger.

Scary Haunted Mansion!

They really are happier than they look; just trying to be tough guys--you know how it is.

In line for the Tower of Terror; we were both so scared. I didn't talk pretty much the entire time we were in line because I was so nervous. I hate heights and I had no idea what to expect. Little did I know that it would be my favorite ride in the whole park!

In line for the Tower of Terror on day 2.

A pic from the Tower of Terror; Brady's face is hilarious!

Cute pic of Danny and Brady

Mmmmm, corn dogs and a funnel cake to share; so healthy!

The 3D Toy Story ride; it was so much fun! You get scored on how many 3D characters and stuff you shoot and Brady killed me both times we went on it. Dang it!

While we were in LA, we decided to go to a Jazz v. Clippers game; it was seriously so much fun. Tickets were cheap because the Clippers aren't very good so we were able to get seats on the 6th row! We got to the Staples Center when they opened the doors at 6:15 p.m. and we were able to take pictures with some of the players. D. Will and Boozer had already gone to the locker room, Millsap and Korver ignored us, but were able to get these pics:

Sundiata Gaines signing a poster for us of his game-winning shot against the Cavs--so cool!

Ronnie Brewer--he was so nice and I was sad to see him get traded. We will miss you Ronnie.

Wesley Matthews

Huntington Beach

Beautiful!

On the plane sad to come home

I Felt So Special

I felt so special when Brady walked in the door on Saturday night with this bouquet of flowers! I was amazed at how beautiful they were and how great they smelled. I think it's amazing what a bouquet of flowers can do to brighten my day. I love walking out in the morning and seeing these on my table. If I lived in the wilderness I swear I would go pick flowers every day just so my house could smell like fresh-cut flowers.
Another Valentine's Day has come and gone, which marks the 8th year since Brady and I met; what a special time that was for me. It was a time when I realized how a girl should be treated; with respect and love. He came into my life and now my life will never be the same. Love you lots babe.

Here's to you, the man I love!

Our Golf Weekend Getaway!

For Brady's birthday on the 29th of January, we decided to take a weekend getaway to St. George and Mesquite. It was great weather and we had a great time. We left Friday after work and came home Sunday evening. On Friday night, we stayed with Todd and Rachel since they live in St. George (thanks for letting us stay with you); it was nice to get to know Rachel better. We golfed at Sand Hollow, all 4 of us, and I enjoyed the sun and riding in the golf cart with my hubby! After St. George, we then went to Mesquite where we stayed at the Eureka Hotel and Casino because we won a free night's stay there, thanks to Deron Williams' 25 days of Christmas Giveaway. It was so new, modern and nice! We, okay Brady not me, golfed at Wolf Creek Golf Course and it was SO beautiful! It costs around $125 per person to golf there, but because Todd knows someone who works there, he got Brady on for only $25! I loved riding around with him and being his little caddy!

At the entrance, such a beautiful course!

So amazing!

Hole #1
Such a pretty waterfall
Nice swing Morlock

LOVE him to death

I took so many pictures of this place, it's amazing!

What golf course do you know of that has a drive-thru window you can pull up to and order food? Genius idea

At Sand Hollow

Beautiful Red Rocks

Nice follow-through :)

I'm trying to become a good golfer

I LOVE my new ladies golf balls and pink golf glove that Brady got me for Christmas. Wow, somebody loves the color pink!

Getting ready to golf

Brady and Todd--brotherly love

I recorded Brady golfing and he didn't even know it. He talks in this funny accent afterwards and pulls a silly face. Just a couple of the reasons why I love him so much. He's the greatest.

Jazz are Awesome

My love for the Jazz keeps growing...especially when they beat teams like the CAVS! Our friend Jason Dunnigan got a suite for his birthday and invited Brady and I to go with he and Katie on the night of the Cavs game; of course we said yes! We had such a great time. Everyone in the crowd was supposed to wear green to match the Jazz's throwback jerseys, so we bought these cute t-shirts for $10 at the arena--I swear the best $10 I've ever spent. They didn't have Brady's size, hence the reason he is the odd-man-out. This is a pic of us after the game-winning 3 pointer by Sundiata Gaines--yay! When the Jazz won I was jumping up and down and I felt as if they had just won the NBA finals; I was so happy. WOW.

Me and Katie--so fun
Brady was trying to get some good pictures of Lebron, but wasn't too successful.

Jason and Katie

Another not-so-successful picture of Lebron. Hahaha

Thanks Jason for an amazing night!

Night of the Nickel

I've done posts about Nickelcade before, but had to post more pictures of us there because we just went a couple weeks ago. I swear next to Disneyland it's the happiest place on earth! Me, Brady, Sean and Chad went and had a great time. We played so many games and got SO many tickets. Here are a few of the pictures I took:

I was determined to knock the clown's teeth down!

Brady and Sean trying to win BIG!
Getting ready to play Skee Ball--I lost miserably Chad and Brady trying to Sink the Titanic; great game worth LOTS of tickets!

Counting our many tickets after a long night...

It was a great night out with great friends!

Happy New Year!!

For New Year's Eve we went to Phil and Alesha's house and hung out with the family, played games and ate way too many snacks. It was fun. I am bummed though because I didn't take hardly any pictures--I wasn't on my 'A' game that night I guess. Phil and Lesh were good hosts--thanks for having us over! Koen was playing with my camera, taking the most random pictures, so I finally asked if I could take one of him and he gave me this huge smile. Cute little KoKo.

Happy New Year!! Bring on 2010!

Nate and Gina (oh, and baby Skye)

The plethora of food--I feel like all I ate was junk food that night, but oh well, it was great!

I feel like New Years Eve is so overrated, but it's always fun to get together with family and friends; I can't ever complain about that.
