order

I am so behind with my blog posts, and although I have some super exciting ones I can't bring myself to not post them in order... So I'll start with some pictures from Christmas.

We went to SD for Christmas this year. We got to be there for a full week it was so nice to be able to spend so much time with my side of the fam. Although I wasn't very good about taking pictures I did manage to get some with my younger siblings and some at the cabin we stayed at for a few days.

christmas pj's- a must (notice the duke/unc rivalry)





this is the christmas card we got from my older sister and nephew:)

the view from the cabin at terry peak

the missionaries came up and spent their p day with us. it just so happend that jimmer was playing that night and so we sent them a little christmas gift once we got back.

it doesn't matter if it's an AZ summer or an SD winter, frozen snickers are the best kind of snickers

the guys decided it would be fun to go shoot guns, this is something i had never done before... this is apparent in the video below...smh!

We were also able to go see the temple lights with some friends, that will be a tradition for sure!

no longer newly weds...



We decided to celebrate our one year anniversary in Park City!                                       



We ate dinner at The Restaurant at the Waldorf Astoria. Seriously so delicous! It was literally a two and a half hour dinner, one where they give you plenty of time in between eating your soup/salad, roll, appetizer, dinner, and desert. The best part was when the waiter took our drink order and we both said water. He then asked if' we'd like "sparkling, flat, or park city's finest" Dallas thought the latter sounded expensive so he said flat. They brought out two glass bottles of water which only ended up being 9 dollars a bottle haha! After dinner we laughed when we realized that Dallas didn't fully understand the phrase "park city's finest" as being the tap water!! We didn't even care, the water was the only thing we actually paid for since the hotel gave us a voucher for food at the hotel. It was such a fun experience to eat at such a fancy place. The manager came out and asked how everything was and what the occasion was and we told him it was our one year anniversary so they brought us a super delicous desert with a fancy hand written, completely edible, sign saying happy anniversary.

Okay you have to love pinterest. I told Dallas that I made a wish list on my pinterest and if he ever needed any ideas of what to get me for Christmas or my birthday or whatever he could take a look at that for help, I know I know, I am SO thoughtful haha, don't worry it get's better. I made Dallas make a pinterest too, so he has a wish list I can refer to as well :) Anyways, I had randomly pinned this fancy Michael Kors watch, not knowing it was Michael Kors, or that it was $300, I just thought it was pretty and I was wanting a new watch. We get to PC and Dallas goes in to the Fossil outlet to find a look a like and finds the actual watch I pinned to give me for our anniversary! How sweet huh?! I was so impressed that he found the actual watch! I was not impressed that it turned out to be too big and bulky. Being the sweetheart that he is, he took me back later that day so I could pick out a smaller one! My anniversary gift to him was not as pretty, but definitely cozy, he had a favorite jordan hoodie that he somehow lost/misplaced so since we were right there at the nike outlet I got him a replacement:)

We got to enjoy break fast (not in bed) you'll see why when you see the pics of the room we got to stay in... ah-may-zing!

Our gorgeous hotel. Although the pool was heated we did NOT treck out in the freezing cold through the snow to go for a dip! haha!

I LOVED all the lights, you can't see the trees they had all lit up because these are not my pictures, haha they are a little TOO professional obviously!

This is identical to the room we stayed in. We decided we are going to put a frame around our tv in our new house like the one is in this picture, also an idea from the lovely site pinterest!

and THIS is why we did not eat break fast in bed, because we had an entire kitchen, living, and dinning room next to our bed room, not to mention an extra bathroom! Hello, this hotel room was almost as big as the house we are buying! Originally our room was just supposed to be the regular suite with the fancy bedroom but after we checked in Dallas went back down to the office and asked if they could upgrade us since it was our anniversary, and they did, not even for a cost!

We had such a wonderful time. This first year together has been so wonderful. Very eventful but very worth every minute! We can't wait to see what this next year of marriage has in store for us!
We after theweekend we stayed in Lindon with some of our friends. We were able to see, not all, but quite a few of our friends while we were in town. We were able to work in our office for the week and go to our company christmas party at tucanos which is always a good time. We love our jobs! Working for Apply has been such a blessing for both of us!
We have already had quite an eventful December and the month isn't over yet!
