First day of Spring....

Last friday... A bunch of our closest friends all got together to celebrate the warm weather and the first day of spring!!! We went to our friend Andre's house ... he has a little fire pit in his backyard!! We all sat around the fire and chatted about old times, and plans for the summer!! But I wont lie... As much as I wish it wasnt.... It got freezing and the fire was just not doing it!!! haha But we still had lots of fun pretending we weren't cold... relaxin and hang out with our friends!!!

Jamie and me sitting by the fire!! I dont know about you girls... But serious... everytime I am around a campfire the nasty.. smokey smell lingers on my hair for a WeEk!!! I probably washed it 10 times since friday and its just barely starting to smell good again LOL!!! The worst!!!



SATURDAY NIGHT


Saturday... one of my good friends Jerica invited all of us to her new house for a SceNtSy pArTy!! I was so excited cause I had not seen her in so long!! It ended up not being just the girls... Brandon is good friends with her husband so she decided to BBQ and invite all our guy friends!!! Which was awesome.... We were lovin all this outside activity!!! All our friends came and spent a bunch of money (I spent way to much... Brandon was not happy) ... But it was a good turn out!!! If anyone wants scentsy stuff... my friend Jerica Holden sells it... her website is www.scentsy.com/jerica
You have to try the Coconut Cirtrus Parfait scent... its the best :)

Sunday.... was super relaxing for Brandon and I.... we just went over to my parents house for dinner.... My mom cooked pizza (YuMm) and we watched TwiLiGht!!! HaHa My whole family watched it.... and he is going to kill me for saying in it.... but my dad LOVED it!!!!

DATE NIGHT

Saturday night, all our coupled friends got together for a date night. We decided to go to the new scary movie out... Last House on the Left!!! IT WAS REALLY CREEPY!!! not a movie that I would see again but it was not that bad!!! Some of the parts in the movie were just too much.... I could not even watch... so I do the eyes closed.. plugging ears thing LOL .... Brandon was even having a hard time watching at times!! I had no idea that it was a remake from a movie made in the 1970s.... anywho, not one that we recommend but it was okay!!! After the movies... we went to our friend Jamie's house to watch dunes videos and play cards!!! We had a really fun weekend :)

Miss Weber County

SooO.. My friend Jamie invited me to go to the Miss Weber County Pageant Friday night to watch her sister in-law compete. I was so excited to go... I had never been to a pageant and I was very interested to see what it was like. Let me tell ya....It was so crazy... these girls confidence and the fact that they can just get on stage and do what the do is AMaZinG!!! Something I would never have the guts to do. Anyways, the pageant was great. Ashton Price, contestant #1 was the girl that we were cheering for. She an awesome.... this was her first ever pageant and she was the only girl competing with no pageant experience and she did so good. And lucky her she picked #1 so she had to go first in everything..... Here is a picture of all the contestants....

Let me tell you the last part of the pageant just BLeW my mind.... okay.... so they announced second attendant which was contestant #8, Kami Alldredge and as she walked up to get her flowers and plaque there was a lady that was whispering to the announcer.... I didn't think much of it at the time. They then announced contestant #7, Monica Richards as first attendant and as she walked up to get her flowers the same lady was whispering in the announcers ear... they sat and talked quietly back and forth as everyone sat in silence waiting for Miss Weber County to be announced... THEN the announcer says " It seems there has been a mistake in announcing so lets start over and pretend this did not happen" I WAS IN SHOCK.... WHO DOES THAT SERIOUSLY!!!! those poor girls standing up there with flowers in hand were so confused on what to do. SoOo... the re announced that Monica #7 was not 1st attendant but she was in fact 2nd attendant !!!!!!..... and they announced contestant #4 Heidi Evans as 1st attendant!!! Cant begin to understand how a mistake like this could happen. And as Kami Alldredge was walking back to stand in line with the other girls ..... they announced HER is MiSs WeBeR cOunTy 2009!!!!!! I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT hahahaha.... one minute she is 2nd attendant and the next minute she was crowned MiSs WeBer cOunTy!!!! I am sure she was not disappointed but Monica, #7 ... going from 1st to 2nd has to be disappointing!!!!! I could not believe it. Overall, a very fun.... ShOcKing first time pageant experience. I applaud all the girls to be able to get on stage like that!!! All of them did awesome :):) The new Miss Weber County is just a doll.... she was consistent through the whole pageant and she deserves the title :):)

BuT... I cant help but wonder what the mix up was all about and if the really meant for some other girl to be one of thee attendants????? We will never know....

BabY LinCoLn

My nephew Lincoln James is here!!! My sisters, mom and I all headed up to the hospital saturday morning to visit my sister in-law before she head into to surgery to have Lincoln. We made it there in perfect time to visit for a bit and she looked gorgeous... just glowing... and so ready for him to be here!!! After about a half hour they kicked us out to make room for more labor patients and so we could do some waiting in the waiting room!!! Next thing we knew a nurse came out and said... HE'S HERE!!! We walked over to the area where the window is to see if he is in there... sure enough... there he was!!! So of course we had to give him his first photo shoot through the window while they got him all cleaned up. He is 8lb 4oz and has jet black hair!!! :) And let me tell you I dont know how my TiNy siSteR In-laW could carry a baby of that size but she did it and he is healthy and just PeRfeCt!!!

My sisters and I waiting patiently in the waiting room!!!
