Camping Trip!

Last Sunday was our 6 month anniversary so we wanted to do something fun in celebration of it! We decided to go Camping because we haven't gone camping together since we've been married, plus it sounded fun, and cool weather sounded great! His Dad told us of a really nice place to go to, so we went up there to check it out but ended up pitching tent at a different place than where he told us. If we would have left earlier than I'm sure we would have found it. We just left too late so it was really dark when we got there and we were tired of looking for it. So we "settled." But, it was good enough for us. I definitely learned a few things on this trip, let me share :)...

1. Never camp by the "wolf scouts" They'll keep you up with their primary songs/ truth or lie games/ and non- stop howling. Seriously, the next morning... all we heard were kids howling at the top of their lungs.

2. Don't forget the food! Well... at least the key ingredients to your food. Haha.

3. Don't drop your father in-laws glove in the fire :/ Sorry Mike Jones! We (I) owe you big time!

AND

4. Plan to stay a little longer than 14 hours! :) It was a quick trip! It would have been nicer to stay at least a day or two.

Don't get me wrong, It was fun! We cooked smores, made T.V. dinners/tinfoil dinners/ hobo dinners, whatever you want to call them, and brought Brian's portable DVD player to watch a movie. I fell asleep about a minute into the movie :) But, it was ok because apparently the dvd player died 15 minutes later. Just a few more camping trips and i'll be a pro!

HAPPY 6 MONTHS SWEETIE!

I was bored and made this...

Don't mind the cheesy sayings.

So, this is Brian blogging here. I just wanted to prove to Liesl that it's not that hard to upload a picture. I literally did this in the 5 minutes I had before work today. I love you Sweetie!!!

So here's another reason why i never blog...

Because it never works for me! I've spent like an hour trying to post pictures and there's always something wrong! Grr...

So I am officially the worst blogger ever. I Can't keep up with it and i am reminded of it everyday by Brian! haha. So i have to post something or I'll never hear the end of it. I guess i just don't have the patience to sit down and think of stuff to write... or maybe it's because I'm on a computer all day and it's the last thing i want to do when i get home! Oh well, I'm here now! So i have to do it! I'm always looking at other peoples blogs so I figured it would be less creepy of me looking at their blogs if i were to post something too. :) I don't even know where to start so i'll just post some wedding pics... kind of old... but is 5 months really that old? I must say though, it's gone pretty fast, but it's been fun! I'll post more later... maybe something that's happened more recently :)

So I think we actually had this blog for about a month or so and I'm now just getting around to doing something with it. I'd attempt to write something... maybe post a picture or two, and then i'd give up or get distracted. Haha. I figured right now would be a great time cause it's Sunday and... this is totally a Sunday worthy activity right? blogging! Sunday should be the official blog day. Yeah? Ok, anyway. Now you can see why i get distracted...

Well i figured I'd post some pictures of Brian and i before we got hitched :) Maybe give a little run down of pre- married life. Brian and i were friends in highschool and hung around in the same group. We dated a little off and on, but nothing too serious. Well, he left on his mission for two years and served an awesome mission. You can always tell a good missionary by the person they are when they come home. Brian's an example of just that. He's an amazing person that I honestly look up to so much. Anyway, he doesn't know im writing this, I wouldn't be suprised if he made me take it off when he see's it! haha. Oh well! Well he got home in August and about 2 days later we ran into eachother. Long story short, We pretty much were together everyday and became best friends. A week after we had made it "official", dating exclusively if you will, we were "unofficially" engaged. We were then married 5 months later! Fast movers?... typical for mesa i guess :)
