What in the World?

So, I have to admit how much I love Britney Spears' new song "3." I seriously jam it in my car and love every second of it. As I'm listening to it and learning the words, I find myself singing "Are you in? Living in sin is the new thing." What in the world? I better listen to all the songs with lyrics like this before I have kids because they pick up on things so quickly! I'm not having kids anytime soon, but it makes me wonder when I do have kids, what kind of world is this going to be? It totally scares me!

The Many Faces of Halloween

Oh my gosh, what a procrastinator I am! I really feel like I have no time to update this blog, but I love when it's updated and I love keeping in touch with all of you, so I'm trying to be better at doing this. Things have been crazy with work and school for both Brady and I, but we are handeling it all and are excited for the semester to be over in 5 weeks!

Halloween was really fun and I wanted to post my pictures from the festivities. Every year my work has a big party so we all dress up and the little kids come trick-or-treating and we get to leave work early--all in all, it's a really fun day. Here is a pic of me and my boss; we both dressed up as pirates and didn't even plan it! I guess that old saying is correct that "great minds think alike!"

For our family party, Brady dressed up as Tiger Woods and I was his caddy. We bought body paint from Wal-Mart and this was the final product. It was really fun.

Here we are: Tiger Woods and his caddy Steve Williams. :) I carried a golf club around with me and wore a little bib-thing that said USGA on the front and WOODS on the back.

For Brady's work party, he dressed up as New Mexico; yes you heard right, New Mexico. It was funny. He cut a box into the shape of the state and glued the flag on it, the state animal, motto, etc. Everyone seemed to get a kick out of it.

For our friend Halloween party, Brady and I just wore big afros and were "twins." We wore the same color jeans, the same watches, the same shoes and both had afros; our friends seemed to like it

Also, on a side note, we purchased Jazz season tickets this year and we have had so much fun going to the games! Some of the games we can't attend due to school, but we LOVE the Jazz. It has been a blast! My best friend Katie sits right next to us with her season tickets, so we always go to the games together. Great times!

Lagoon and Family Fun

I'm trying to play catch up with my blog since I've been such a slacker. We went to Lagoon for my dad's work Lagoon day and it was so much fun! Brady is so afraid of heights (as am I), but he was daring and went on the Rocket; me, on the hand, chickened out and watched the kids instead. Maybe next year... Mindy, Dustin, Bevin and Missy. Is Bevin's hat so cute or what?
Me and my hubby--only REAL men wear pink!

Nate and Gina

Grandma and Grandpa Olsen--love them!

Lounging out on the hammock at Strawberry Pinnacles, in Fruitland, Utah. It was so much fun--we loved tubing down the river and just hanging out with the family. Is there anything better than that?!

We've had a great summer; it's a bummer that school is already starting tomorrow--I can't believe it!! On one hand, I feel ready to get back in the swing of things with school, but on the other hand, I feel like I just got done with summer semester! Oh well, I am happy to be getting an education and keep telling myself that it will all pay off in the end. Today we bought our school books and that always puts a damper on the day, but oh well. :)

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*
