<b><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="text-align: start;">Well after a year long hiatus, I've decided to recommit myself to the blog....mainly because I want to be able to remember every moment with our little munchkin and all his cuteness. I also want to share pics and stories with family. OH AND BECAUSE BEN IS MAKING ME!!!! So we absolutely can't get enough of our little man, (he's found his voice this week and is currently screaming/squealing as loud as he can right now with Brandon) we think everything he does is the most awesome thing anyone could do. I also got a new video camera for my birthday last month so now I can't post some videos too! I'll post a few pics today since he's already grown sooo much! (5 month pics to come...)</span>

So lemme start at the beginning....We started out by going to Conference. We got to go to the Saturday afternoon session with my whole family. It's always so refreshing and uplifting. It was nice just to have the whole weekend off together. Brandon's family does a really fun thing at his grandparents house the Sunday after Conference. The WHOLE family goes over for dinner and then we talk about our favorite part of Conference. I feel like it's a great legacey and tradition...I wish I had pics.</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsvnji7nw1MrcuU8Rh9xHnPXupjqomznf9VpARlcVvcOk9f1t2xsSuhAJ_3RWXfOGp3oajQ7A7u8lsS0tsM-T4czLETZubmKNf-rJRjoGr-6xo4B3Od10TX7DO8fs_Qn_J_PduZ1My-Ok-/s1600/009.JPG"><span style="color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600421159919399634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsvnji7nw1MrcuU8Rh9xHnPXupjqomznf9VpARlcVvcOk9f1t2xsSuhAJ_3RWXfOGp3oajQ7A7u8lsS0tsM-T4czLETZubmKNf-rJRjoGr-6xo4B3Od10TX7DO8fs_Qn_J_PduZ1My-Ok-/s320/009.JPG" /></span></a><span style="color:#000000;"> We also got to go to the Jazz vs. Lakers game that weekend.

The truth is Brandon had really been wanting to go for a long time and it was actually pretty fun....if you minus the part about us being there with a bunch of highschool kids! So yeah I guess we should say once they cleared out it was pretty fun. We had the whole place to ourselves. Honestly it was good just to get out of the house and play!! The boys showed off doing cool tricks and flips, we played tag and dodgeball and actually got a good workout!</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg614bhsFcx3MfjQA9hjgnCJBvsaYniE1Z23T4EERhtyrSKsP04ZLNDfXh_2umDUeBYplbes6EVnYHAEddGS5uhMMWaqhyN2tlAA-MALbmAk3dy3HlOwC4RRsIOe9j1XVUgtMuaOS09uNse/s1600/028.JPG"><span style="color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588559105041171362" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg614bhsFcx3MfjQA9hjgnCJBvsaYniE1Z23T4EERhtyrSKsP04ZLNDfXh_2umDUeBYplbes6EVnYHAEddGS5uhMMWaqhyN2tlAA-MALbmAk3dy3HlOwC4RRsIOe9j1XVUgtMuaOS09uNse/s320/028.JPG" /></span></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilfWgRHj5rRlgj2bUDNSXlsY_GPNP__9Edfqy4tfSVnVtz7fgVPPglHK-SsFOmZMUQWmRkgwk6BbtcfBmOmsMqqzf3C-n5o6nwOMSfp47xmji2vaXl12VNwrAr053hmnBDgDv-i4aKLxHm/s1600/034.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588558633002568898" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilfWgRHj5rRlgj2bUDNSXlsY_GPNP__9Edfqy4tfSVnVtz7fgVPPglHK-SsFOmZMUQWmRkgwk6BbtcfBmOmsMqqzf3C-n5o6nwOMSfp47xmji2vaXl12VNwrAr053hmnBDgDv-i4aKLxHm/s320/034.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRyhqo3_L0ejznUrR52kP87475fq5KNfu1XueUrPtlVWWBapCkxOyq6_uimBncT8StsBGMd8My85GZmP69-U6Y5XzDPo16k0U4z30qHJUydaU0VNxlYdA7YWJTd5kFAEWEJpv4gq10_mTV/s1600/031.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588558622809288002" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRyhqo3_L0ejznUrR52kP87475fq5KNfu1XueUrPtlVWWBapCkxOyq6_uimBncT8StsBGMd8My85GZmP69-U6Y5XzDPo16k0U4z30qHJUydaU0VNxlYdA7YWJTd5kFAEWEJpv4gq10_mTV/s320/031.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5z2eiioMdUkySwy4UABii4O6lQRkWYN-ioPWL4VDITpXmsX_sXMHV53EOPLBvv6oA9avYeijUspTMvGSP_ciF_9eTofFUL8Hn20Fm90Nfuze2UepnMfEs-C8qc-_c2dNdAfeUKCvbOARR/s1600/021.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588558620260043938" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5z2eiioMdUkySwy4UABii4O6lQRkWYN-ioPWL4VDITpXmsX_sXMHV53EOPLBvv6oA9avYeijUspTMvGSP_ciF_9eTofFUL8Hn20Fm90Nfuze2UepnMfEs-C8qc-_c2dNdAfeUKCvbOARR/s320/021.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Brandon and Shelissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00851803748026840684noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8900074176081345620.post-77252474588578096782011-03-01T11:36:00.000-08:002011-03-01T12:08:06.716-08:00Spring Fever<span style="color:#000000;">Wow I haven't posted anything in sooo long. I guess we haven't been doing anything too out of the ordinary lately. Brandon is studying like crazy and I'm picking up lots of shifts at work. We did get to go to Desert Star on Saturday night. Sometimes it's nice just to have an excuse to dress up and not wear scrubs every day! The beginning of the year is always so BLAH to me. I keep getting so excited for warm weather and then get crushed when I wake up to snow AGAIN!

At first thought all I can remember is school school and more school. But as I dig through pics and reminisce with Brandon I cannot believe all that we did! What a year! I'm so grateful for where we're at and for all the sacrifices and encouragement from family. We are just loving life and can't wait for all that 2011 holds!</span><br /><span style="color:#000000;"></span><br /><span style="color:#000000;">We started off the year with a cabin trip with friends and family.....if you know Brandon's family, you know snowmobiling was involved.

It was a study abroad for my nursing program and Brandon came along as a medical assistant which looks great for grad school applications. Sorry for all the pics on this one. It truly was one of those life changing experiences. I wouldn't say it was a "VACATION" but we had a blast, learned a lot, made some great friends, and hopefully made a difference in some small way. WE were touched for sure!

That's always most of the fun I suppose tho huh? Brandon and I have actually loved getting to spend our whole day together just shopping, planning, and all the fun activities. I thought I would throw up a few pics before Christmas gets here. *speaking of being with Brandon, I have a quick side note story. Last night while we were out shopping we stopped at Carl's Junior for a quick bite to eat. The guy who took our order was ridiculous. He was wearing stickers all over his face like a little kid and kept goofing off with his friends while taking our order. So we sat down to wait for our food and after about 15 min we asked another girl where our food was since the place was completely empty. Turns out he had given our food away to his friends who had left a couple minutes earlier. I couldn't believe it. I mean who does that? The girl came over and gave us the # to the general manager so we could complain about him since it happens all the time she says. I was so mad last night saying that "people like him didn't deserve jobs in this economy." How rude huh! I was all ready to call the manager but when I woke up this morning I couldn't bring myself to call and get someone fired. I mean what if he has no dad and his mom is a drunk and he's just trying to save money for college and get a new life? Unlikely but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. It's christmas afterall! Anyway, my first pic is over at Ben and Al's house at a Christmas dinner. Kathy made us these cute new aprons.

We took up the snomobiles and found a real beauty. Brandon was our tape measure here, we decided it was perfect and chopped it down. I love having a real tree that smells so good and it's only $10 for a tree tag! The only bummer is it seems every time we set it up and start decorating I always find holes in it everywhere and I can never make it look quite like all those beautiful fake ones!

I'm that wife who occasionally nags at the husband for watching every single jazz game on tv without fail and would maybe rather be watching some sort of chick flic. But when we get a chance to actually GO to a game, Im all over it. I love, love, love the Jazz at these times. I get caught up in the music, cheering, special little tricks by the jazz bear, the jumbotraun, and general enthusiasm of the crowd. And luckily, they won, which makes it even better. We got to go with my sister Breanna/Austin, and Brandon's brother and wife, Ben and Alyson. It was a blast, even if we were only sitting like 5 rows from the top!

We decided to take them to Chuck E Cheese's. I haven't been there in probably 10 years (well actually it was 7 years to be exact because that's where I had to go for my Senior Prom-uh!) Anyway I forgot how fun it is for little kids. It's such an exciting atmosphere with the music, games, pizza, parties, and prizes. I actually think Brandon had as much fun as the kiddos did. He'll be such a good dad:)</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzGoc9SS6Y-eVYRuwXV26Tfpga9Vz0jqIbmQga4IOOXA2mCHrYgKaRZK0NOXFF8MjT3szDltlIcUh70I5ZqfBIX9N4nlxdCQB79tf-Dq52pp6yUwCoxKYLAu-9re7r1FNfomE8AkaffbYw/s1600/DSC02032.JPG"><span style="color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540280483379349618" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzGoc9SS6Y-eVYRuwXV26Tfpga9Vz0jqIbmQga4IOOXA2mCHrYgKaRZK0NOXFF8MjT3szDltlIcUh70I5ZqfBIX9N4nlxdCQB79tf-Dq52pp6yUwCoxKYLAu-9re7r1FNfomE8AkaffbYw/s320/DSC02032.JPG" /></span></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYEaO7KK795SOI_W1q-N-k-7GJhnY3lMAC-FU0Ngoyr9QXLYb_BC8HOzTFTIdYuHUrZCOVOgR92Uv7MavsagsG_a-el82YfJV5fed4lyeZQW3NLt4no7Wy3at-r5jtKKW7VxS6kCNjgqiF/s1600/DSC02026.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5540280280984884514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYEaO7KK795SOI_W1q-N-k-7GJhnY3lMAC-FU0Ngoyr9QXLYb_BC8HOzTFTIdYuHUrZCOVOgR92Uv7MavsagsG_a-el82YfJV5fed4lyeZQW3NLt4no7Wy3at-r5jtKKW7VxS6kCNjgqiF/s320/DSC02026.JPG" /></a> <span style="color:#000000;">Oh my gosh, Markelle was so excited about her new rings.

I think we were in Sandy or Draper someplace? Anyway, when you stand in the middle it echo's. But the funniest part was that the kids were way more excited about catching all the moths fluttering by.

I've always hated the cancer word but it's a whole new story when it hits you personally. My grampa has been fighting this cancer for months now. He battled it well and has left a great legacy behind. We're blessed to know that he is free of any pain or suffering. We knew it was getting close when he was put on hospice so we were lucky enough to be able to spend some of his last moments with him. This particular day was extra special because he was awake, alert and interacting so much. I'll always remember it. We got to hear a few of his favorite jokes/phrases again and exchange endearing words. It was a tender mercy for our family.</span> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTiH7OiNkdDtbBc0l_26zoU0wl4TuX_dgdYrxpwk660JX7r1R5kmMpcF8eURBOznCf0Cr0gnVqv8y5tSI7SA1srGgoRxpI6HYRBxZcZPh9F3mmkmo76V7m71S1Ny1nRUewNWoaVleoGaFQ/s1600/001+(2).JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534808389691753826" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTiH7OiNkdDtbBc0l_26zoU0wl4TuX_dgdYrxpwk660JX7r1R5kmMpcF8eURBOznCf0Cr0gnVqv8y5tSI7SA1srGgoRxpI6HYRBxZcZPh9F3mmkmo76V7m71S1Ny1nRUewNWoaVleoGaFQ/s320/001+(2).JPG" /></a><br /><span style="color:#000000;">Since my grandpa is a veteran he got to be burried at the veteran's memorial in Bluffdale.

It actually turned out really fun...and scary too. But it was FREEZING. We got soaked from the rain but we hardly noticed, just kept treckin on cuz it was such a blast. I must say however that Lagoon isn't quite what it used to be. I remember as a kid being able to spend ALL day there loving it and the rides seemed so huge and awesome. And it was always the number one goal to meet a cute boy. Now it almost seems a little ghetto and there's probly only 5 rides that I actually enjoyed riding. One of them was surprisingly the bumber cars...Don't you love how Brandon always makes this same face in all the pics?? What a cute face it is.</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZk5NsqlFK8SPGuhBwmKESFPmPawmB9qf5t8S2BVCJIQme2KK3qp0IX26xbeWwkyaie3kRQasCMclSSmE3ca_KsCGxuupXbi3ev5OK6ENMonljojJ9f2TlNboPfwudu1WBdmlPJHhpmlmj/s1600/025.JPG"><span style="color:#000000;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534796303299442946" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZk5NsqlFK8SPGuhBwmKESFPmPawmB9qf5t8S2BVCJIQme2KK3qp0IX26xbeWwkyaie3kRQasCMclSSmE3ca_KsCGxuupXbi3ev5OK6ENMonljojJ9f2TlNboPfwudu1WBdmlPJHhpmlmj/s320/025.JPG" /></span></a><br /><span style="color:#000000;">We discovered these awesomely carved pumpkins were fake so that made us feel better about ours from last week.<br /></span><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixo5wsJ3UOr-NJ47qWMr-g2-tE-X-84YHpTBAKOTCch_1oPUz2nvL0igYmEf1-Y4s-GlFOZCK3DdP5MeV6ezsYl0KnObf1sSM2bRlxJ8B_ut2g01HxKOz9ZFkw_dAhQGJ4GDz_f6ZIDGTJ/s1600/047.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534796296223235730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixo5wsJ3UOr-NJ47qWMr-g2-tE-X-84YHpTBAKOTCch_1oPUz2nvL0igYmEf1-Y4s-GlFOZCK3DdP5MeV6ezsYl0KnObf1sSM2bRlxJ8B_ut2g01HxKOz9ZFkw_dAhQGJ4GDz_f6ZIDGTJ/s320/047.JPG" /></a><br /><span style="color:#000000;">We got chased around by these scary fellas with chain saws.

It was one of those "listen to our 90 min presentation and we'll give you a free trip" type of things. So we went. But good thing Brandon came cuz I just about gave in and bought the package. I had to make Brandon be the one to say no. He's tougher than me. I just always start feelin so bad for the poor guy trying to make some commision and then I feel guilty for all his time we're taking and I start justifying why I can buy it. But once I get out of there and back to reality I'm sooo glad we didn't get suckered in. We can either go to the Mexican Riviera or the Caribean.

I can't believe it's already been a whole year for us. We had such a beautiful, PERFECT wedding. I'm one of those gals who could re-live every second of it every day and still LOVE it. It was the happiest day. My cheeks were actually hurting from smiling so much.
