Country Concert

Last week we went to the 101.5 The Eagle's Country Fest. A bunch of people were singing but the main person was Chris Young. There was a lot of drunk and crazy people there. We didn't know if we were more entertrained from people watching or the actual concert haha. After the concert, we went back to the tracks to get a ride back to our car. When we got there we some a bunch of flashing lights up ahead. Someone crashed into the tracks so we had to walk a couple of blocks to get the next one. We took a few pics while we were walking.

I won this trucker hat at one of the booths

My brother Trent and I

It was fun but I don't think I would go again. Just not my kinda crowd I guess.

Wedding Dress

When I purchased my wedding dress at Gateway Bridal and Prom, they gave us a discount for a preservation box. All we needed to do was put the dress in the provided box after the wedding and then send it off to New York. They clean in and put chemicals on it to keep the dress from yellowing. Well I finally got around to sending it off and here is what was sent to my house yesterday.

When Brayden pulled it out, he said "This reminds me of a dead person". It was so funny but I told him that I'm going to remember he said that every time I want to look at it.

Family

Every other Sunday, Bri and Rawson and us go to Chris and Karen's house for dinner. I love spending time with them and just enjoying a lazy Sunday together. This last Sunday, Brayden showed off his iPad to them and we had fun taking pics on it.

That night as I was looking at all the pics we took, it made me feel really lucky that I married into such an awesome family. I'm glad that we are best friends and can hang out and just be silly together. I count my blessings each and everyday that they are in my life.

Pinterest

Lately I have been trying new recipes from pinterest. Brayden used to complain about how much I was on there, but now that I have been actually making the things that I pin, he loves pinterest! Last night I made Guacamole Grilled Cheese. I LOVE guacamole so this sounded so good and it's pretty easy. I would definitely recommend this yummy sandwich.

Brayden and his love for technology

When Brayd and I were first married, his current laptop was falling apart and he was in need of a new one. I was thinking maybe a nice HP or maybe another Dell. He had something totally different in mind. He wanted the new Macbook Pro. Once he wants something, he usually finds a way to get it. So we bought a Macbook Pro.

He loves anything Apple. He already had the iPod Touch before the Macbook. He would get an iPhone if we were already with Verison or AT&T. He has to have the latest in technology. This is probably why he has the best 4g phone at T-mobile and a Google Tv. This brings me to his current want. Last week he said he wanted an iPad. Two days later it was on it's way after he ordered it online. He sure doesn't waste any time!

Now he is always showing me all the new things he can do with it. It makes him so happy haha
