Welcoming the New Year!

2011 was a great year for Garrett and I. Here are a few things we did this year...


-Went on a cruise.
- Bought our trailor (and went on a lot of camping trips!)
-Went on a lot of mini vacations including wendover, alaskan inn, park city multiple times.
- Celebrated our 2nd anniversary.
- Started going to school full time.
- Got a new job that I am very happy at.


I'm sure there is a lot more but this is all I can think of right now! Though we had fun in 2011, I am so ready to start the new year. I am hoping this year is better and brings a lot of fun and change for us!

Chipmunk for Christmas!

Garrett and I had a very INTERESTING Christmas this year. Let me start out by saying I finished school in mid-December... Hallelujah! I have never been so relieved! On December 20th my very best friend, Alyssa, came home from her mission. It was a lot of fun and so good to see her! December 22nd I got my wisdom teeth out.... BAD IDEA! I was thinking I would be just fine by Christmas. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day were horrible. I looked like a chipmunk and I felt horrible! I couldn't take the pain medication because it made me sick so i just has to take ibuprofen and tough it out. On christmas Eve I had Jello and Mashed Potatoes and Christmas day I had Mashed potatoes! SAD! I have never been so miserable to where I want to lay in bed and sleep 24/7. Garrett worked night shift the weekend of Christmas, like always. I didn't get to see much of him. We tried to make the best of the situation but overall, our Christmas wasn't the greatest this year. This wisdom teeth business has been rough! Tuesday night I was sick throwing up. Thursday when I went back to the doctor he told me that one site wasn't healing properly so that is why it has been so painful and I have been so sick. It has been a week and a half and I am still pretty sore but feeling a lot better. I'm glad I got it over with but I would never recommend getting your wisdom teeth out 3 days before Christmas!

Pathetic

Wow! I have been a horrible, terrible, pathetic blogger lately, however, I have a pretty good excuse (i think.) This has been my hardest semester yet! I decided to go full time again and that was a bad choice. My classes have been a lot harder than they have been in the past. All I spend my time doing is working, going to the gym and doing homework, and I am not lying. After I started the semester I quit my job... and then got a new job! I have been working full time and going to school full time. For those of you who have had to be around me I am deeply sorry because I have been one onery girl lately, And i'm pretty sure Garrett feels like he no longer has a wife. Even though I am so stressed out I am really loving my new job. I get to work with one of my best friends, Kelli. Everyone there is really nice and hard workers! Well I don't have time to catch you up on anything else other than that because I have finals to study for but after next week I am hoping to be a better blogger ;) I am only taking two classes next semester so i'm hoping that will help my stress levels... and maybe I will actually feel like i'm married again!

Goodbye Summer...

Although we had a fun summer I have to admit that I am not too sad to see it leave us! We were very busy this summer and this was my first semester starting school full time. I will admit it was AMAZING only working two days a week though! I feel like the summer flew by. It definately wasn't one of our best summers ever. I am glad that summer is over and here are a few reasons why...

- I hate the extreme heat
- It is the start of a new semester, which means I am closer to gradating
- It means fall is coming and fall is my favorite time of the year
- It means the holidays are getting closer
- It is mine and Garretts birthdays soon
- I finally get to stop watering the lawn and our flowers! lol

I am definately looking forward to the future! I love our lives and wouldn't change them for anything but sometimes I feel like we are in a weird spot in our lives. All we do is work... and go to school! I just can't wait until I graduate and we can move onto the next chapter of our lives!

July 31, 2009

I know I have been a horrible blogger lately but I have to blog about Garrett and I's two year anniversary! WOW!!! It seems like yesterday that we were being sealed to each other. This year for our anniversary we went camping with Garretts family... AGAIN! Not that it wasn't fun but I told Garrett that we are not making this a tradition any longer if he wants to make it to three! lol. jk! We actually celebrated our anniversary at the beginning of the month in Park City because we knew we would be camping that weekend. Our good friends, The Hardmans, also came camping with us. It was a lot of fun spending time with them and the boys had a blast bear hunting!

I am so so so lucky to have such an amazing husband. He is the hardest worker I have ever known. I love spending every day with my best friend. I also love that we can have so much fun together and he can make me laugh like crazy! It is such a great feeling to know that I will be married to him for eternity! I LOVE YOU GARRETT BRASEN ELFORS AND CAN'T WAIT TO CELEBRATE MANY MORE YEARS OF HAPPINESS WITH YOU!

Park City!

Garrett and I had this whole week off together (which never happens) so we decided to go on a little getaway on tuesday! It was kind of for our anniversary, which is July 31, because we will be camping on our anniversary this year! We bid on priceline.com and got a room at the Yarrow Hotel and resort for $40.00! It was not the nicest place we have ever stayed in but for 40 dollars we were perfectly fine with it! We went and saw Transformers 3 and went to dinner at the Loco Lizard Cantina! It was probably the best mexican food i have ever had! We went back to our hotel and went hot tubbing. It was so nice because no one was in the hot tub or the pool! The next day we had breakfast at Einstein Brothers Bagels and went shopping at the outlet mall! After shopping we came home. It was fun to spend some time away with my amazing hubby!
