It's a Wonderful Life: September 2010

We had such a great weekend! On Friday night we went to the temple with Sami and Ben. After the temple we went to get milkshakes and then went back to out house to play Wii!

Ben helped Sami with bowling :)

Wii can make you a little crazy!

Sami got a strike and did a victory dance

We were trying to make really intense "I am going to kick your butt at boxing" faces but we kept laughing too hard

The Ultimate Showdown: Ben Vs Sami

On Saturday night we made homemade pizza with Scott and Cindy. It was really good! And this is coming from someone who doesn't even like pizza that much!

Pete made the pizza dough

I helped flatten it out! I tried to do the spinning the pizza dough in the air thing, I can't say I was particularly successful :)

Pete and I's pizza before we got all the toppings on! My side is the one with hardly any sauce

Scott realy LOVES his pizza :)

Pete and I's pizza about to go in the oven

After we ate our pizza we went to Cascade golf center and played putt-putt! It was really fun!

Pete and I are the nursery leaders and one of our nursery kids, Abbi, loves to put on my shoes and ride the tricycle :)

The nursery kids LOVE Brother Kelly!

This weekend was so much fun, we got to spend time with some really good friends. Life is great!

I know, shame on me, I haven't blogged in months and months and there are even some picture I hadn't put up from BEFORE I last blogged. I promise to get better! (haha..well...hopefully). So this post is all about playing catch-up! There are soooo many pictures and very short explainations but it pretty much covers all of the fun things we have been doing the past few months! We have still been loving life and having reat adventures :) Also, my little brother is staying with us this weekend so expect a "Weekend with Carson" post coming soon :) Until next time!

Pete driving the Uhaul full of our stuff back to Provo from Texas after our honeymoon!

Building building...

Our living room shelf in progress! I built it all by myself haha

This is wha I woke up to Valentines Day morning!! My husband is the best :)

I made pink heart shaped pancakes for breakfast, what can I say I like to make food holiday colored :)

Going on our first Valentines Day date all married!!

Pete and I right before starting the Rex Lee Run!!

We did it!!

WooHoo!!

We went to the park and flew our "Toy Story" themed kite! We had such a great time, I love the park

I LOVE the swing!!!! Always a little girl at heart <3>

Me at the Breast Cancer race!

Pete at the race

Pete and I went on a Salt Lake adventure date! Haha that's what Pete and I called it simply because for a date we went to Salt Lake and did a bunch of fun things which we don't get to do often :) We started by going to "Bruges", a waffles and fries place in Salt Lake that is soooo good! The owner is from France and when he found out I was taking a French class he tried to speak to me in French, which of course made me have a mini panic attack and forget every bit of French I knew haha

Then the Museum of Church History and Art!

And the Planetarium!! We went and saw a laser light show, it was pretty awesome

Mmmm crepes! I did this for a French assignment and they look at their best in this picture but frankly they were a real pain in the behind to make and will probably NEVER be made again! Haha so take a good long look.

I got a new baking tin that makes these little wedding cakes! They were so fun to decorate :)

I made a chocolate cake to celebrate our 6 month anniversary and while I was waiting for it to cool off enough to ice/ falling asleep while waiting Pete iced it and added his own special touch with Reeses chips!

We went to a few concerts this summer! This is the Country Throwdown Concert! We went with some good friends Kardin and Mariah and had a blast regardless of the fact that it was raining super hard the whole time! It was just time to break out the really attractive ponchos! haha

Tim McGraw and Lady Antebellum!

Candlelight Serenade Acoustic Festival!

We spent 4th of July in Napa, CA with my Aunt Lori (Joe's sister) and with most of the rest of my family!! It was so much fun!!

Hannah and I!

We watched fireworks on the golf course

John John hanging out before the fireworks started

Me and my mama!

We lit off our own fireworks in the parking lot when we got back to Provo

My new bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am totally in love with this bike :)

The very first cake I made for my cake decorating class I took this summer!

Oh yeah!! Check ou that shot right on the bullseye ( I kind of have a thing for shooting guns) haha

Another one...I loved taking that class!

We went to Denver, CO to visit Pete's sister Jenna and her husband Scott, Andrea was there too! We had an amazing trip!

Olivia and I watching the Giraffes :)

Pete trying to imitate the Orangutan haha (I think that's how you spell that word)

We went to a Rockies game! So much fun!

Awesome panorama of Coors Field

Red Rocks!

Haha, you have got to love carnival mirrors!

Olivia! She is my super adorable niece! We has so much fun with her while we were staying with Jenna and Scott.

This sign does not lie, Buford ,WY is the smallest town in the U.S.! Population: 1, and we met the one! Nice guy.

Sami and Ben's wedding! Dang those sideways pictures! This is still an adorable shot though <3>

Cutting the cake!

Of course, we had to decorate their car :)

Jenny Keyes, Sami Van Noy, Me, and Mariah Mitchell. It's kind of blurry, but I love these girls!! The wedding was fabulous and Sami looked completely amazing! Awww we are all married now!

We went camping at Bridger Lake! I know this pic is sideways haha, we has so much fun!

Pete's Grandpa truckin' it over sticks and rocks in his walker! He called it "4wheeling" haha :)

Matt, Addison, and Tylin (My Brother-in law and nieces) on our way to fish!

Fishing at Bridger Lake! It was so fun! I caught 4 fish! There is a pretty funny story that goes along with this photo though. Right after this picture was taken the fish started wriggling so hard that I started squeeling and he managed to wriggle himself right of the hook and back into the lake! He one one talented acrobat :)
