Catch up- You've missed a lot

Here are some recent events you missed:

Our 2 year anniversary. Yay! Brandy got me my favorite flowers.

Then, Brandon got a call to work in Baltimore for 2 weeks. I was at work when he left 2 hours after the call, and he missed my 23rd bday.(Don't worry, my family did an awesome job making my bday extra special.) I was super sad, but decided to fly out for a week to be with him, and visit his sister out there whom we rarely see. A special thanks to my papa who made a generous donation towards my plane ticket for my bday.

Air and Space museum in D.C. These are funny flight attendant uniforms from the 60's.

Us in D.C. We visited the Holocaust museum. It was definitely worth seeing, but hard to handle. Also, it was like a monsoon that day so we didn't see much. Very sad.

Brandon's Sister Shelly and her hubby Kirk.

Our niece Paige. The smartest kid I've ever known. She's 3 1/2 and can read, recognize classical composers, and knows a ton about everything.

Brandon with our nephew Dillon. (See that smile? This is why I need to have a baby.)

Chubby bunny

On to Baltimore- I've been to this area a couple of times before and really wanted to bring Brandon. I'm so glad we had this random opportunity. The glass building is the Aquarium which we went to. And the surrounding area is a harbor with paddle boats, ships you can tour, shops, and about 50 places to eat. So fun. Brandon loved it.

Same area. The harbor is to the right.

Baltimore Zoo. It was fun, but a little small. We don't recommend it.

Brandon had to work everyday we were there (except Sundays), and we were about 30 minutes from Baltimore. Long story short, I was stranded at our apt. for much of the time. But it was totally worth it just to be with my sweetheart and see family. P.S. This part of Baltimore is great(the aquarium and harbor), but the rest of it is the scariest ghetto I've ever seen. Seriously. I thought we were going to get shot. But hey, we didn't so that's fantastic.

Now you're all caught up!

Ode to my brilliant (and handsome) hubby

I was just so proud of Brandon, I decided to post this. Brandy's been working for Nature's Way for a few months in Product Development. Basically, he is given products from other companies to match or gets to experiment on his own ideas. Anyways, he came up with and created a new product that was a great idea, and now the company is going to market it! It's a cold medicine in pixie stick form. No water required so you can take it wherever, whenever. It comes in 3 flavors: mint, cherry, and mixed berry. What a brilliant man my sweetheart is!

New 40-year old shoes, deer saliva, and a visit to Rexburger

We went to Rexburg this past weekend to visit the Weimer fam and just had a splendid time. I love going there because we get to lounge around in a beautiful home with a pool table(bet you didn't know Brandy and I are pool sharks did ya? Well, now you do.), a wonderful cook(Brandy's mom), and great peeps. We always play games at night and do fun activities during the day.

This visit we went to BEAR WORLD. If you're headed up in the Rexburg direction I highly recommend Bear World. I always thought it was a strange thing to have in Rexburg, Idaho, but I'm so glad we finally got to go. You get to feed bears, see wolfs, deer, buffalo, elk, mountain goats, moose, birds, etc. There's a petting zoo there where you can feed deer and pet them. I was weary at first, but they are seriously like big dogs. They lick the food out of your hand. So cute! My absolute favorite part of the place was seeing the baby bears. They are adorable and tiny(8 lbs!)

We also spent time with Brandy's grandparents, who are all super nice. All my gparents are gone so I love having Brandy's to share. Anyways, Brandon's grandma told me she had some old shoes she was getting rid of, and asked if I'd like to go through them. I was excited and jumped at the chance. After going through about 25 pairs, I was astonished. She had all these hip flats, wedges, and sexy high heels that had barely been or never been worn. I wanted about 12 pairs, but only 6 fit me. What a good visit we had!

I love deer!

Feeding the bears!

Bebe bear. Brandon and I were both ready to steal one! So cute!

Twilight!

Sorry I borrowed this image from your blog Bynz, but I had to. I was skeptical about the casting for the film when I saw the roster, but clearly I was wrong. I think Edward and Bella both look great. She's even wearing a raincoat! How exciting! I wonder who will play Jacob Black. It's probably best if I don't see this movie with Brandon the first time because I'm sure I'll be drooling all over myself. I mean, it is Edward Cullen after all. Can't wait!

Hands down, I have the cutest nieces on the planet. They are all so adorable and sweet. I hope my kids are that cute!
