HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Yup! It's my sweeties B-Day! Brian turned 23 on the 14th. His birthday was on a Sunday so we celebrated it on Friday and went to eat at Texas Roadhouse and then came home and had cake, ice cream and opened presents! Then on Sunday we went to his parents house and had another little b-day party for him!

I love Brian so much! I've never loved & admired someone so much as i do Brian. I know he is my better half :) He is everything that i strive to be and has all the qualities that i've ever wanted! He tries so hard in everything he does and always achieves what he sets forth to do. I'm so grateful to have someone like him in my life. He is just an overall amazing & GOOD person. He amazes me everyday. He makes me & my family laugh constantly which is so important to me. I know i will never get bored with him. He is SOO sweet! There's never a minute where he's not telling me he loves me or that I'm beautiful... and not only does he just say it, but he shows it. He works so hard in school and does great in his job. He really is just perfect! Heavenly Father definitely spoiled me by allowing Brian into my life. He's such a blessing and a JOY to me. I love you Brian! Thank you for being my husband and the best one too! HAPPY BIRTHDAY :)

CONGRATS TIFFANY

Congrats to Tiffany! She's PREGNANT! I'm sooo excited for her! And for me too, haha jk , I've wanted one of my friends to have a baby soon... but most of us have recently gotten married, so i was counting on Tiff to start the trend. :) Anyways, just wanted to say congrats to Tiffany. I love you girl and you and Drew will be the best parents ever :)

My best friends wedding

Yay for Danie and Blair! Danie and Blair were married Nov. 25th in the Mesa temple and boy am i so happy for them!!! These 2 make the cutest couple ever, i know they will be so happy together :)





So, i was obsessed with her dress and had to take pictures of it. Her AMAZING mom made it too! I swear, she is one talented lady and the sweetest one too. Gotta love the Eaton bunch!



Danie had been collecting brioches for a long time for her dress. Isn't it so pretty!



Her sisters did all the decorating. It turned out so cute. I loved the "Fall" theme.





All the girls and I

Brian has a son...

And this is him! His boy, Elder Graff, wow i can't think of his first name right now, made a special stop in Mesa while on his way home to Texas. Brian trained Elder Graff on his mission so that's why he calls him his "boy" or "son." Elder Graff was quite possibly one of Brian's most favorite companions. So you can only imagine how excited and overjoyed he was to finally see him again. Brian was actually the one who wanted me to post about this. Anyway, it was really nice to finally meet this person who Brian always talks about! We only got to visit with him for a short time cause they had to head back out on the road, but the short stop was definitely worth it. Anyone who makes brian happier than the Office, is worth the love! I've actually met a ton of his old companions/ friends from his mission. Brian and i counted about 10 or 11 that i've met, so i feel very privileged. Any who, it was a great weekend!



P.S. Notice the beard. 4 days until he shaves it!!! :)

I love FALL!

I made some delicious PUMPKIN ROLLS! They were pretty simple to make and tasted heavenly! Even Brian liked them and he doesn't really like pumpkin. So that says a lot :) Anyway, just thought i'd share my proud accomplishment. haha.

Don't you worry, i got a little crazy with the picture taking! I had to throw a little Thanksgiving in there, Or did i throw some pumpkin rolls in there? haha oh well.



Ok, here's a normal picture of them. Some of them were slightly squares w/ rounded edges? My mistake. I spread out the dough too thin on the edges which made the edges bake a lot faster than the rest. So it didn't roll up quite well in some spots! I'm getting there!

Halloween was so much fun this year and i have plenty of pictures and videos to prove it! Brian and I spent Halloween at his parents house with the rest of his family. We had dinner, passed out candy to the trick r treaters and just hung out and had a great time! It was fun seeing all of the kids dressed up in their costumes. When ever they'd come up to us for candy, Brian would tell them they had to tell us what their costume was before they could get candy. There were some pretty clever costumes too.... I think my favorite was the girl who was dressed up as a "sassy vampire." Haha i had to give a shout out to her, that one was just too cute. So what would you say the age limit to trick r treating would be? Because we definitely were questioning a few... I guess 40ish isn't too old to some! haha oh well!

I'm proud to say that we had some of the best costumes around. Everything from Pedro, down to the Geoff heads! It was hillarious actually. For those of you who don't know Geoff, he's Brian's brother... and he's somewhat of a legend at the Garners house. He's probably the most talked about person i've ever heard of! No joke! But for those of you who do know him, i'm sure you will appreciate these pictures/ videos ;) Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween! We sure did!
