Well 2008 came and gone and so did 2009. At the begining of 2010 I told myself that this would be the year that I take that trip to Tacoma. I couldn't believe that it took me 2 1/2 years to finally make it back to Tacoma. Since Cody and I moved here we have been working a lot and I can't stress enough that we work a lot. I love my job but it was great to get away for 5 days. I took the first flight out of Salt Lake on March 11th, one of my greatest friends ever picked me up at the airport and I spent the day with her and her kids, Krysten I am so greatful that we were able to spend time together. I had a great time going to Target even tho we didn't make it to that Hat Isle, we will have to save that for my next trip. Later that afternoon my sister Shawna picked me up and we headed to her house where an anxious 7 year old was waiting to see her Aunt!! My brother in law made a great dinner then it was off to see my Mom & Dad and my Grandma. Pretty much everyone knew I was coming but my Dad and Grandma. My mom and I had it planned that my dad would answer the door. The look on his face was totally priceless, I wish I had my camera out. He opened the door then shut it on me because he was shocked to see me there. Needless to say My dad was very happy to see me and so was their dog Rufus. I didn't know who I was more excited to see My dad or Rufus. I got big hugs from my Mom & Dad then I went and said hello to my Grandma and got the biggest hug ever! I really love my Grandma and I was thankful to be able to spend time with her. We spent a good couple of hours with my Parents. Friday morning it was off to get pedicures with the girls, Me my sister Shawna my niece Jenna and my sister in law Bridgette. I was so excited to see my Brother and sister in law because back in June they had their 3rd son Jaimus, I got to meet my nephew for the first time, he is the cutest thing ever!! After pedicures it was off to get lunch, I think I ate the best Mexican resturant ever. That evening the whole family came over for dinner. My sister Susan got married last summer and I wasn't able to make it home for the wedding so I was able to meet her husband Tom and one of her Step Kids Beth who is the sweetest ever. I can't wait to meet the other 3 kids. Saturday was a girls day for Shawna, Jenna and I. We took the light rail in down Town Tacoma, Jenna was super excited to take the train since she had never been on one and the best thing its free. We went to lunch and then walked down the street to get these awesome cupcakes. Saturday was just a great day. Sunday I was able to attend my old ward and see friends that I hadn't seen since I had moved. That afternoon my baby nephew had his blessing. It was awesome to be able to be there for that. I've been able to be there for all of my nieces and nephews blessings. I don't think I've missed one. I can't wait for my next trip and hopefully i'll be able to see some other friends and stay longer!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpGXvK2rKD9YxyihwEbMG8cgc1grU2yhoR1zrgyk8mz_m2mLIs0-cFEA_c4iiA5vWfF8CshIM3Vg5fTiC4orvj-qXBExxHSn5E1A_lVMEkhie7exYYoV0Q6fV55S9xqeI3JwajqhZtLqTz/s1600/DSCN0117.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpGXvK2rKD9YxyihwEbMG8cgc1grU2yhoR1zrgyk8mz_m2mLIs0-cFEA_c4iiA5vWfF8CshIM3Vg5fTiC4orvj-qXBExxHSn5E1A_lVMEkhie7exYYoV0Q6fV55S9xqeI3JwajqhZtLqTz/s320/DSCN0117.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454486241669523330" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Me and the kiddo's!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_xaSn0ApKZmVRGF30CoB_hsqqmK1EknV7DVgoKmEYO27E9q67E9c-434Zg4vAJ9WDNfDoipbB7MAKCFR1Yv-fIz3dTs3IQU9AmeM-a8PZU1LKyxQvqq0Pk33k6m24rrBdj7K8hbhotgao/s1600/DSCN0060.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_xaSn0ApKZmVRGF30CoB_hsqqmK1EknV7DVgoKmEYO27E9q67E9c-434Zg4vAJ9WDNfDoipbB7MAKCFR1Yv-fIz3dTs3IQU9AmeM-a8PZU1LKyxQvqq0Pk33k6m24rrBdj7K8hbhotgao/s320/DSCN0060.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454487040839811490" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> Me and KourtneyBreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-34644601230480851422009-12-31T16:19:00.000-08:002009-12-31T16:32:00.147-08:002009 another great year gone by!This year has truly flown by way to fast. The last few days I've been thinking a lot about what has happend in my life this year. Cody and I bought our first home. I have had a blast being able to buy new things and decorate our home with my sisters help! I have been really spoiled this year and being able to see my family members. I was super blessed to be able to spend time with my sister three times this year. Even if one of those times was just 45 minutes at the airport. Shawna and Craig, Jenna came to our home the day after Thanksgiving and spent the day with us and we showed them around Logan. That was Craigs first trip here and it was great being able to see my brother in law. My parents made the trip here in June and they were able to see our new home as well. I love being able to spend time with my family. I feel very blessed that my family is able to come and spend time with Cody and I. Another awesome thing about this year I turned 30, I remember when my older sister turned 30 and thinking she was old, but now that I'm 30 I don't feel all that old. It feels like just yesterday I was graduating High School. <br /><br />I hope that 2010 will be another great year. There are just a few things on my check list for the year. I am planning on taking a trip to spend time with friends and family back in my home town. I know my husband does get irritated when I say i'm going home but I have to remind him that Tacoma will always be home!!<br /><br /><br />I am really excited for this year and I hope everyone has a wonderful 2010!!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-79446934223492704572009-12-19T09:43:00.000-08:002009-12-19T09:51:16.482-08:00A sweet post about meMy sister in Kala is an awesome blogger, for this month she has been doing the 25 days of christmas, she has been writing about people in her life and i've enjoyed reading about them everyday.

This year they went to Yellowstone. I had never been to Yellowstone and I was quite excited for this trip. Cody wasn't able to make the trip due to work. Rather then me driving alone I rode along with Mick and Jen and the girls. We all met up in Rexburg, which was another first for me since I had never been there either. I was able to see the new Rexburg Temple as we took our exit from the freeway. Its a very beautiful Temple. After we stopped for lunch in Rexburg we were on our way to Yellowstone. As we were driving to Yellowstone it reminded me a lot of driving to Mt Rainier. It was so nice seeing huge pine trees. I didn't realize how much I had missed all the green. We made a few stops before seeing Old Faithful, and I was impressed with everything that I saw. I would just stand there and take in all the scenery. We had great weather on friday it was nice and warm and a nice little breeze. It was so fun watching the kids take everything all in. As we drove to see Old Faithful I couldn't believe how beautiful yellowstone was. Being a girl from the Northwest it was so nice to see all the green it did make me miss home a lot!!! When we arrived to Old Faithful we had a little time before it went off, we went to a lodge and had dinner. As we were done with dinner you could tell it was about time for Old Faithful to go off because everyone was standing around. I was really excited to see Old Faithful go off, its much better in person then it is on tv. After seeing Old Faithul we headed to our cabins which was about 45 minute drive. They were really cute cabins and we were all lucky enough to have them all together. When we got there you could tell that all the Big Kids (adults) just wanted to head to bed. Saturday was a pretty laid back day we went to the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and that was just breath taking. The kids were able to listen to a Park Ranger while we were there. We saw LOTS of Bison, as we all got out of the car 2 bison decided to go out into the street and stop traffic. Those 2 didn't want to move for anything until a Park Police showed up and got them to move so traffic could start up again. We also saw Elk and Deer, I didn't see any bears. The cabins we stayed in were really cute, I loved how they were all decorated. The cabins were also near a lake, which was down a ways but it was still pretty seeing it everyday! I was very happy to be able to make this trip. A huge thanks to Mike and Ruth for making this trip happen. It was great to get away from normal everyday life and have some family time.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuD4mYc8yEegFFnQIVA35kQYHLdl7AABzOhGUyCV7DBrIHSQsCp9AY_ZwoizgBJh6dGgsEehD2mSzwPIvXXrTWyLEQw8yJe__ygT_THXCqxOIjoJVqJipPw4JcnCD9gZZRmf4MX4Bkdhr/s1600-h/YellowStone09+055.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuD4mYc8yEegFFnQIVA35kQYHLdl7AABzOhGUyCV7DBrIHSQsCp9AY_ZwoizgBJh6dGgsEehD2mSzwPIvXXrTWyLEQw8yJe__ygT_THXCqxOIjoJVqJipPw4JcnCD9gZZRmf4MX4Bkdhr/s200/YellowStone09+055.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373232794136716226" border="0" /></a><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />beautiful scenery<br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd66V00pX2FL9HbI4QoWzYbOW5W6Aa7q4DOdgfBvJVFHOOsXRDM95j9MU_bEQ-3U2i1t6YhELSaByX6rR1b3WnWnMP6SDct9pYNxLjurZq76eScun1ANDy80olIoi8sF_HgotwQDx8g01I/s1600-h/YellowStone09+073.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd66V00pX2FL9HbI4QoWzYbOW5W6Aa7q4DOdgfBvJVFHOOsXRDM95j9MU_bEQ-3U2i1t6YhELSaByX6rR1b3WnWnMP6SDct9pYNxLjurZq76eScun1ANDy80olIoi8sF_HgotwQDx8g01I/s200/YellowStone09+073.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373233156723254738" border="0" /></a><br />Old Faithful<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkibwFEjgMgBx3pndQO6PfrTDSscbUxVZOsRR0hmYDsEy7wpeOi_SXs_bv5hIyssHkVHKDAOqKhdaNMVsGi5ZpFXtSTsSimuZkglQg6rdc6-iLCa8iXMGSBlzf4SX3Ni1MjlqT8sWvlbc/s1600-h/YellowStone09+082.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkibwFEjgMgBx3pndQO6PfrTDSscbUxVZOsRR0hmYDsEy7wpeOi_SXs_bv5hIyssHkVHKDAOqKhdaNMVsGi5ZpFXtSTsSimuZkglQg6rdc6-iLCa8iXMGSBlzf4SX3Ni1MjlqT8sWvlbc/s200/YellowStone09+082.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373233727549985506" border="0" /></a><br />Bison on the road way!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-28212109420210009192009-06-13T11:11:00.000-07:002009-06-13T11:23:16.736-07:00Flowers Flowers Flowers!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9-Jo_sRUpy3b-8BJEdzE52Kq2B53NUQZtTs71_nx7UXSO3QzrxeFz_ksEpWo5mxoscgFeX2JmZJcgRgdP3nUk0n1P7YsijsJUpHFKMyu-O9ctLr1qACzwNA5ePV3IaoDVSvqsixZSje1X/s1600-h/DSC00851.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9-Jo_sRUpy3b-8BJEdzE52Kq2B53NUQZtTs71_nx7UXSO3QzrxeFz_ksEpWo5mxoscgFeX2JmZJcgRgdP3nUk0n1P7YsijsJUpHFKMyu-O9ctLr1qACzwNA5ePV3IaoDVSvqsixZSje1X/s200/DSC00851.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346878283425671522" border="0" /></a><br />Before my parents came to town my mom and I had talked about planting flowers in my front flower bed. I have to say I was pretty excited because it was looking rather plain out there. So a couple of days after they got here my mom and I ventured to Home Depot and Walmart. We found lots of pretty flowers and i'm very very happy with the out come. I give my mom full credit for planting the flowers, I just watched and watered them when they were all planted in their new home. In the next couple of weeks i'm going to be planting some more. I've always wanted a rose bush so i'll be venturing back to Home Depot to see what they have. I've always loved rose bushes and flowers. We had rose bushes in our back yard when I was little and this huge lilac tree. My mom always kept a pretty flower bed in our front yard. I'm no green thumb but maybe one of these years I can learn how to keep a pretty yard. I still have lots more work to do, I have yet to attack the back yard, and there is a little bit more work to do in our front yard. Cody and I are planning on planting a tree. I wish I could of gotten a picture of our lilac tree, it was in bloom a couple weeks ago and it was very very pretty. I hope you guys enjoy the pictures of our front flower bed. And HUGE Thank You to my awesome Mom for helping me out both her and my sister Shawna are so wonderful with flowers!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimSTSSGIcN1g9FXN8sLb8NOx-mik3973RHJgYlkGK6TvKyCpkDLycLviAPGsmWGaqBnsIfpZTbpS7aC9F4_8lZMxnkbtdaK6Hnj63-hmHvPns0UW6VxwwbgpVJ9S2R9lTwBQ8yXzBNsKvV/s1600-h/DSC00852.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimSTSSGIcN1g9FXN8sLb8NOx-mik3973RHJgYlkGK6TvKyCpkDLycLviAPGsmWGaqBnsIfpZTbpS7aC9F4_8lZMxnkbtdaK6Hnj63-hmHvPns0UW6VxwwbgpVJ9S2R9lTwBQ8yXzBNsKvV/s200/DSC00852.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346878395682637138" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1bmtQgwoXFsw1WZUNdUtjLVzXNvf80Q9759F_mLo7BsK1GL3-gTaYMbZrw_Uc5pJUhZ9bu7BMAoNdQvDFyKIHGGi1TQDg-gY-gDMxCNe9nJ12bGgYj5kTMOHEaLKvYU2Gv9EXAU2muo9/s1600-h/DSC00853.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1bmtQgwoXFsw1WZUNdUtjLVzXNvf80Q9759F_mLo7BsK1GL3-gTaYMbZrw_Uc5pJUhZ9bu7BMAoNdQvDFyKIHGGi1TQDg-gY-gDMxCNe9nJ12bGgYj5kTMOHEaLKvYU2Gv9EXAU2muo9/s200/DSC00853.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346878575742065810" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmCcIVkxEOORMdbZAF0hduNt_TnhUz6RTfmtzO4JjYmX8O3rONbWjPHTnHlwNelzeM4P5Oe8UbjYSSm4_Fs63GM40XTVtlGMFDmzraIKasu6QiBYhT7PDXz3o5KVmEQJs5fEgGMm3w4Jo/s1600-h/DSC00854.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMmCcIVkxEOORMdbZAF0hduNt_TnhUz6RTfmtzO4JjYmX8O3rONbWjPHTnHlwNelzeM4P5Oe8UbjYSSm4_Fs63GM40XTVtlGMFDmzraIKasu6QiBYhT7PDXz3o5KVmEQJs5fEgGMm3w4Jo/s200/DSC00854.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346878852988344658" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbZhw6RPYO-KUGEw7_hfExI647mboskM1eEVHgCJ65yF3lB9m1GcrTwVjPcNVSUwobKJAXIbK5MT9mtrq-XczKTQx4wr-j3fZQaVGJQb_u68HiUXn5Hg5q-e9Dd1egxiYcaG2TEVXMhvnF/s1600-h/DSC00857.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbZhw6RPYO-KUGEw7_hfExI647mboskM1eEVHgCJ65yF3lB9m1GcrTwVjPcNVSUwobKJAXIbK5MT9mtrq-XczKTQx4wr-j3fZQaVGJQb_u68HiUXn5Hg5q-e9Dd1egxiYcaG2TEVXMhvnF/s200/DSC00857.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346879129052742258" border="0" /></a>BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-68159951065584571812009-05-31T21:25:00.000-07:002009-05-31T21:54:51.120-07:00Hello!!I know i'm a huge slacker, I haven't posted anything in a couple of months but hey its better late then never.

Cody and I had a great time with them. When they were in town last time Cody didn't get to spend much time with them so this trip Cody was able to spend a lot of time with Jenna. Shawna and I were able to decorate while Cody was able to entertain Jenna. Our home looks wonderful and I'm loving it more and more each day. When we moved to Utah I considered Utah the place I lived and Washington was still my home. Washington will always be my home but now Utah is my home. I am so great full that Cody and I were able to buy our first home here in Logan where its very beautiful. I finally took pictures of our home all pretty and decorated. So I hope you love them as much as I do.<br /><br /><p style="visibility:visible;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widget-c9.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" height="320" width="426" style="width:426px;height:320px"><param name="movie" value="http://widget-c9.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf"><param name="quality" value="high"><param name="scale" value="noscale"><param name="salign" value="l"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"> <param name="flashvars" value="cy=ms&il=1&channel=3314649325759329481&site=widget-c9.slide.com"></object><p style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=3314649325759329481&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c9.slide.com/p1/3314649325759329481/ms_t013_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=3314649325759329481&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c9.slide.com/p2/3314649325759329481/ms_t013_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=3314649325759329481&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-c9.slide.com/p4/3314649325759329481/ms_t013_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></p></p>BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-12261227579022747292009-03-14T17:05:00.000-07:002009-03-14T17:19:32.773-07:00Big Move Day!So today was the big day! We moved into our new house. I should be unpacking but I just wanted to share the exciting news that we are finally here! Its an awesome feeling knowing that we are in our own home! We were lucky enough to have a few of our friends from work come help us move! So in the next few days we should be totally moved in. The only thing i'll have to do is hang up pictues and what not. I'll take some pictures of the new place once everything gets set into place!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-25148509726005600012009-03-04T12:53:00.001-08:002009-03-04T12:57:15.835-08:00So Ready For SpringAfter a nice mild winter I am so ready for spring this year. I am so excited to get in there and start getting my hands dirty. I've never been one to really like doing yard work but for some strange reason I can't wait to get started and make our home look really pretty. I can't wait to plant flowers and hopefully some rose bushes. Growing up my mom always had nice flowers, and rose bushes. So I can't wait to do the same. Both my mom and sisters are great with flowers so I hope that trate follows me too!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-17011882588359977672009-03-02T15:07:00.000-08:002009-03-02T15:13:47.129-08:00Just a little updateIts been a little while since i've posted so I thought I would give an update on how the move is going. We still haven't moved into the new house yet, we have taken a few things over. I went over today and hung up some pictures in the main bathroom. I'm getting a little more excited each day. And I am soo excited to say that we paid our last rent check ever! Now the next check we write will be for our mortgage payment, how freaky is that. Its still a shock to say we OWN a house. I'm soo excited to get moved in and get everything all decorate. I'm also very excited for my sister Shawna to come see the new place and help me decorate. So the end of the month I will have more pictures of the house looking really cute! I took some pictures today I hope you enjoy. Stay tuned for more pics to come as we start moving in.<br />you can click on the pics to see them bigger!<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-74.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=1801439850971181940&site=widget-74.slide.com" style="width: 400px; height: 320px;" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width: 400px; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1801439850971181940&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-74.slide.com/p1/1801439850971181940/bb_t001_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1801439850971181940&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-74.slide.com/p2/1801439850971181940/bb_t001_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1801439850971181940&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-74.slide.com/p4/1801439850971181940/bb_t001_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" ismap="ismap" border="0" /></a></div></div>BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-58148641254421586122009-02-19T11:11:00.000-08:002009-02-19T11:16:12.911-08:00WooHooI am sooooooo happy to say that Cody and I closed on our house yesterday afternoon!

Yes I'm sad to say that winter has arrived here in Logan, Utah. I knew we were going to have a little snow today, yes deep down I really did want it to snow but if any of you really know me know that I don't like snow. I like it in the mountains but not on the ground here I have to see it up close. I love the mountains around Logan they are filled with snow and I love it. I guess i'll just have to live with the snow now that i'm sure we will be getting more of it... <br /><br />Happy Snow Time everyone!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-15513193188870912362008-12-04T18:27:00.000-08:002008-12-04T18:35:30.388-08:00Thanksgiving Weekend!I have to admit I had one great weekend. Friday after thanksgiving we had a girls night out. It was me along with my awesome sister in laws, Jen, Kala, Trina and Tawna. We all met up for dinner at Bluebird, my mother in law joined us for dinner and surprised us all and paid for our dinner. We had a great time at dinner sharing stories and laughing a lot, I had a great time. After dinner we headed out to see Twilight. I was never big into the whole Twilight stuff until I saw the movie. And yes yours truely is a Twilight fan. I came home that night and told Cody that I had to read the book and he sighed at me, because he knows i'm not much of a reader but I have to read these books. While watching the movie it made me miss Washington. Seeing all that pretty greenery and the gloomy weather. What can I say i'm a true Washington girl at heart and yes I love a good gloomy weather day! So I just want to thank my sister in laws for getting me hooked I am soo happy we went to go see the movie together! We will have to make this a tradition to have a girls night out whenever we are able to get together!<br /><br />The next day saturday Cody and I were able to go on a date! Its not all that often the two of us get to go out and enjoy a day together! I've been wanting to go to this all you can eat Chinese restaurant here in town. They have an awesome Mongolian grill. So we headed out to lunch and left really stuffed and then we went to go see Four Christmases. That was a really cute movie and I was thankful that Cody went with me to go see it!<br /><br />I had an awesome weekend and I hope everyone has a great holiday season!!!!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-45924803245406274692008-11-28T11:42:00.000-08:002008-11-28T11:43:36.888-08:00Thanksgiving!I hope everyone had a great and wonderful thanksgiving yesterday.

We were celebrating Tabbi's belated birthday. Now we don't get to see Tabbi all that often since she lives out east in Virginia. It was nice being together with family today. Now when it comes to our birthday dinner my mother in law lets us pick out the menu and such. And Tabbi picked out a huge winner it was soo good. She found the recipe on a blog called Pioneer Woman. I was curious so I went and took a look. She has lots of yummie recipes. So I just wanted to share the yummie goodness we had this afternoon <a style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=498256944611030625">Apple Dum</a><a style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=498256944611030625">plings</a>.<br />I did not make this yummie dessert my amazing mother in law made this!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLSDah8qzdOD8uySkPIWvq1f1eh5g_tnun6dXNZrIlDCvt4nLbo0SwTBlWVrQ19j98rK9YdcwRIjRSecnSlDLQIvHD1tPI0c_6kmDk9keL4llglHTtKxFuwui4xs4DWSBAvYlYlGVw8pfJ/s1600-h/2295946365_7f21185eca.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLSDah8qzdOD8uySkPIWvq1f1eh5g_tnun6dXNZrIlDCvt4nLbo0SwTBlWVrQ19j98rK9YdcwRIjRSecnSlDLQIvHD1tPI0c_6kmDk9keL4llglHTtKxFuwui4xs4DWSBAvYlYlGVw8pfJ/s320/2295946365_7f21185eca.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5261701821927271314" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />This pic is from the website<br />Here is a link to the blog <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/"><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Pioneer Woman</span> </a>BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-48390823477679897092008-10-18T16:42:00.000-07:002008-10-18T16:58:37.420-07:00My Awseome Birthday PresentI have to say Cody does an awesome every year for my birthday since we have met. I can pretty much name every present he has gotten me over the last 4 hours and he does so good! This year he asked me what I wanted and I told him I wanted a KitchenAid mixer. I really didn't think he would get it for me. For the last few weeks he would tease me and tell me he was getting me a big screen tv. I kept thinking why on earth would he get me a big screen I would rather have a mixer. The last month or so i've been going crazy baking on my days off when ever those actually happen. So when I got home on wednesday sitting on the counter was this big box. I was so excited I put down all my stuff and started opening it! I was so dang happy to see that it was in deed a KitchenAid mixer!!! I was like a little girl in a candy store I couldn't wait to get it out of the box. I was even more excited to use it. So today being saturday I actually had the day off. I ended up making a Gooey Butter Cake. Its one of the few desserts that I make that Cody will eat. So since he was so good to me and got me my KitchenAid mixer I figured I could make a dessert that he likes!! I have to say that I have the best husband in the world he treats me so good!!! I love you lots Cody!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj8IxVSeTJb5w6MNSzIBlbqJz13EQY76ltPSHoLIzlSY1aOTjZ9rNqf386BjSW4_aAZD9mJft_GK77AkdQD6oq_1WotGM-YzCheXN4QGAEUYiAqgekIUPY3_3M1UIf3EzsvfH_nvm8x8t7/s1600-h/DSC00676.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj8IxVSeTJb5w6MNSzIBlbqJz13EQY76ltPSHoLIzlSY1aOTjZ9rNqf386BjSW4_aAZD9mJft_GK77AkdQD6oq_1WotGM-YzCheXN4QGAEUYiAqgekIUPY3_3M1UIf3EzsvfH_nvm8x8t7/s320/DSC00676.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5258644969189231330" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUo-hj4o12Bq18FtSLGX_rvwUaUhoC_qHIxxhcLA2eRJvo-_ZR_G4BAOxX_-6Mk20_GVKd0ai3PBb0fMN9hegL1fuuj-UwIYKAs_tDW7RT7M5eISBhvjofpF6EHtIv_x0GOu8h9Lu4I3_g/s1600-h/DSC00682.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUo-hj4o12Bq18FtSLGX_rvwUaUhoC_qHIxxhcLA2eRJvo-_ZR_G4BAOxX_-6Mk20_GVKd0ai3PBb0fMN9hegL1fuuj-UwIYKAs_tDW7RT7M5eISBhvjofpF6EHtIv_x0GOu8h9Lu4I3_g/s320/DSC00682.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5258645297505985682" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I got the recipe for the Gooey Butter cake from Paula Dean.

October is my favorite month ever! I love fall and watching the color of leaves change. I have to say I miss Washington most this time of year because of all the pretty colors! I have to say I was pretty spoiled to have grown up in such a pretty place. Living where I do now just doesn't feel much like fall because we are still having warm weather but I just keeping picturing in my mind all the pretty colors back home! But I have to say I love October most because it is the month of my birthday! I am turning 29 this year. Now I am the only kid in my family still in my 20's so i'm going to live it up!BreAnnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09016389324738308950noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-498256944611030625.post-75194212950067985162008-09-28T11:26:00.000-07:002008-09-28T11:28:47.036-07:00Crazy Chocolate Cake!!!This has to be the best cake ever!
