We are the CHAMPIONS!!!

We have the most amazing family ever!!! We went to San Francisco this past weekend and got to see the Giants open up the season and get their WOLRD CHAMPION rings. And it was amazing!!!!!!! I went up Friday morning and went to the game Friday with Morgan's family. It was such an exhausting day. First, I had to catch my flight at 6 AM. Once I got to San Fran had a first. I took a subway!!! I wish I would have taken pictures of some of the people on it. It was very entertaining. Well Morgan's parents weren't there yet so I hung out in my sister-in-law's room so that meant I didn't get to sleep. Then the game!!!! It was ridiculous!!!! So many people and it went to 12 innings. And if you know baseball that is like a 4 and a half game. So that meant I didn't get to nap before dinner. Once we got back to the hotel I only had 10 minutes to get ready and rest. Once everyone was downstairs we tried to find the restaurant where we had reservations, but not before the little boys (including Zach) got Brandon Belts autograph. It took us an hour to get to the restaurant when it was less than a mile away. Again another first for me... riding on the Trolley and public bus. And having 4 kids with us made it that much more interesting. Dinner was great and everyone enjoyed themselves and were very very full.
After a wonderful night of rest I was ready for the next days adventure. We went to this wonderful burger place. I wish I remembered the name but sitting by us was the one and only Dot Jones!!! If you don't know who she is, look her up. Than cruised around for awhile until finally Morgan got there. Then off to the game. This night was the night no Giant fan will forget. The team received their rings. It was wonderful. That about sums up our trip. Morgan didn't get to experience all the fun but we are glad he was able to be there.
 I made these opening day but they fit in here

Season Opener!!!

So baseball season has officially begun. It began for us on Sunday with the annual fantasy baseball draft. We are so excited about this season. Both of us enjoy baseball so it is something we can do together. I am excited because my brother, Kent, is doing really well in the minor league with the A's and we will possibly be able to see him play. The last two seasons I haven't been able to see any games because of school. Morgan is excited because last year his team, the GIANTS, won the World Series and this year they have a chance to win again. We get the opportunity to see the Giants  play multiple times this year. We get to see them open with the Padres on Tuesday then that next weekend we get to go to San Francisco with the whole family to see their ring ceremony and season opener.

The pictures are of halloween but I thought they were perfect for this post. We went to Disneyland for Halloween this year with Morgan's whole family and it was during the World Series so Morgan decided to dress up as non other than The Mental Assassin, Brian Wilson. I didn't even recognize him. He was walking down the hotel hallway and I had the nieces and I had the girls move to the side to get out of the way of the scary bearded man walking to his room. But to my surprise it was Morgan. All night at Disneyland people were yelling, "Fear the beard" or just laughing as they walked by. It was hilarious and a great idea.

Have a wonderful Opening Day everyone!!! Go Giants!!!

The Beginning of Forever

So me and Morgan met in December of 2009, on New Years' Eve Morgan surprised me and came to Provo early from break to be with me that night. From then on we were together. Morgan proposed to me on August 8, 2010. It was hard to plan a wedding because Morgan was in San Diego starting Law School and I was trying to finish my school. So until October when I was done with school I was not planning a wedding. But once we started it was all smooth sailing. My mom and I kept asking each other if we were missing something. It went that smooth. On December 17, 2010 Morgan and I were married in the Las Vegas Temple. It was the best day of my life!!!

Coming out of the temple


 All of our nieces and nephews

 We are so grateful for everyone that came. We had people from Utah, California, Arizona, and even Texas!!!


 These two are probably my favorite of Morgan's family





 My mom created this candy bar for our wedding and it was a HUGE hit!!! 

 Kathy Horspool was our florist and traveled to Vegas from California. I gave her a few ideas of what I wanted and then let her have free reign over everything and be creative and she did a GREAT job!!! It fit the feel of our wedding and both our personalities.


Wedding party! 


We have arrived!!!

So finally after being married for 4 months and telling my husband I want a blog it has happened. So basically I did this to update everyone about what is going on in our life and our trips. Slowly I am trying to get rid of facebook but I just can't let it go. It is a love-hate relationship. I know half of you know exactly how that feels. Enjoy our blog. I promise to get it updated and looking nice. 'Till next time!!!
