Pictures and stuff...




Well, my mom and my little brother Ian came to visit this past weekend! It was really nice they came to my volleyball games, walked around campus, and we watched Harry Potter (that's normal right??? :) Ian is really REALLY funny, you know that age-- 10... hahaha You can ask him funny questions, and he'll give you a serious answer- but it's funny CAUSE HE'S 10!!! Yeah we had a blast.  Anyways, school is good- Brent got a job "Student Helper" thats the title they gave him :) He is editing some PDF files for the BYUI website.  I'm still playing Volleyball ONLY THREE WEEKS LEFT!!! Thank goodness! No need to know the details...

For my marriage class I had to find some things that reminded me of when Brent and I were dating.. and well I found all these AMAZING e-mails he wrote me!!! I can't believe I EVER doubted that he liked me! My goodness I almost died when I read these!!! I hope its not to personal, I'm just blushing with happiness! Had to share. My husband is AWESOME!!!

P.S. Read the above- with the voice of Liz Lemon in your head. I've been watching WAY TOO much 30Rock. 
                                                                                                                                              
Alexa!

Hello sweet heart how are you doing? i was singing the system of a down song, radio video, and i was singing the low part and nate (myroommate) was singing the high part, but it reminded me of you and i, i liked your singing better. and other thing that i saw was in my coat pocket was a flyer for the tryouts for the "One Life" play. then i got all into that. thinking about the play and driving you from my house to play practice and back. AGHhhhh, all these memories alexa i want them back, and to just be around you i feel so natural and myself. i went to Shalons house,(that gril from rocklin) to watch a movie, and she quite, i dont like that, it's to quite and awkward. just dead silence. and it's sooooo uncomfortable. i kept thinking of when we'd watch movies together, so nice so relaxing, i could say"i can stay here all night if i could" but when i was with shalon i felt so weird and strange, i miss you alexa. there is no one here that can take you place, i know that. beleieve me. we have something special and i hope it never changes between us. well it's game time! write back and have a lovely day, lovely.

From myself (thats all i can give, thats with all the love and compasion and goofballness and that mushy lovey dovey, HA)

hello there sweety, how are you doing?, i hope all is well. you know what alexa, during the summer, being around you like allday everyday......theres no other way i could think i wouldve spent it. i loved every moment i was with you. i didnt realize this till i was up here (ricks) and how much closer we became to each other. and being here with out you is completely different, like from seeing you 24/7 to not at all and only images i have, is just so weird. we keep saying that it's been like five years or something, but only like three weeks, it's hard to adjust. you are my best friend, alexa, and i feel privalged to be yours. you mean so much to me.

ALEXA

I WENT TO THE YOUNG SINGLE ADULTS WARD IN CHICO, JAROM AND I. IT WAS REALLY BORING, WELL MOSTLY BECAUSE IT WAS LIKE THE 4TH OF JULY SUNDAY, ALLL THEY TALKED ABOUT WAS THE CONSTITUTION. SOOOOO BORING BUT THEN CLASS WAS THE SAME AS THE CLASS I HAD IN MY WARD. BUT GUESS WHAT I MEAT THAT ONE GIRL WHO WAS PLAYING VOLLEYBALL, AND YOU KEPT SAYING "OH MAN SHE'S SO GOOD" AND YOU WERE TOTALY IGNORING OUR GAME, HAHAHA, WELL HER NAME IS CAMIE AND SHE'S GOING TO BE PLAYING VOLLEYBALL AT UVSC, AND SHE' 17!

Alexa.......(sigh), how you doing? im doing great except im sick, i hate being sick. well yeah i decided to write to you. so yeah i keep telling myself im at your house to work and to focus on the work, but it's so hard when all that i want to do is snuggle up with alexa! but i cant ah!drives me crazy. anywho. sorry i didnt show up to the play practice last night i wasnt feeling to well. but i'll tell you what i was going to say only if you say later! ok well i was talking on the internet to Shae, and she asked me, or kind of told me, in question form. "so you really like Alexa HUH!" and im like " wouldnt you like to know!", i couldnt tell her how i felt about you, i mean to explain to her that alexa and i have such a great connection it's unbelieveable. and that everytime i hear her laugh it makes me smile or whenever i see her the day is 10 times better.....and i think if i told her that she would just laugh at me and make fun of me for it later. so yeah thats what i was going to tell you. but now you have to tell me what you and sarah had up your sleave. it sounds scary. we should go watch BATMAN BEGINS sometime! ok!, i watched it wensday! me and shae went, sorry, but we'll go watch it again! it's that good!!! okok alright so long my love~

Love

Oh Yeah and...





YES, we have been married for TWO YEARS!!!! (a couple of weeks ago)! I took pictures BUT, guess who's an idiot and forgot to put the memory card back in the camera! ME!!! So, I technically I pretended to take pictures!  It was on Sept. 27th- and I think Brent forgot it was my birthday till noon hahahaha.  We ended up going to dinner at the Pineapple Grill, and the day before we went to the movies with our friends Jeree & Kyle. Our BIG present to each other and all holidays and birthdays for the next ten years is our MAC computer that we got! It was either that or a ring, and let's face it you can't do that many cool things with a ring.

I seriously can't believe it's been two years- it really does go by fast!!! It's been six years since the FOOTLOOSE PLAY!!! THATS what really blows my mind.  I'm so blessed- thats what it all comes down to.  I love this man and can't believe I get to spend forever with someone as AMAZING as Brent.  But really look at the facts: he's a solid rock! Always striving to be better, the most talented person I have ever met, athletic, SMART, street smart as well if I may add :) P.S. He's pretty funny too! hahahaha and he loves me. I'm just grateful for the best man I could ever ask for.

October Lovin

I haven't really taken any new pictures lately- cause life is just really really BUSY! Between all the art projects, football practices, volleyball practices, classes, making dinners, cleaning, and ALL the homework- pictures seem to be the last thing on our minds. I'll start to take more! Can I say that I just LOVE LOVE being busy- It's just getting used to it again :)

Tomorrow Brent has his first football game which you can watch LIVE! @ One our time. Watch Brent Play Football HERE!!! Or you can watch it after its posted. I have a volleyball game at ten but no live feed :) If we get into the championship game there will be. But you can watch Brent play every week on here! I love that! Anyways Life is SO GOOD! I hope everyone at home is enjoying theirs. We love you guys!
