Quite the Busy Little Couple

One of my favorite things to do is still just date my husband! I love just holding is hand as we walk somewhere, or just spending my Friday night with him. Getting all dressed up and actually putting make up on (which for the past few months is quite a miracle).
We have been quite busy making memories as a couple with our last few months! :)

At the end of September we went to the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus, but we arrived a bit early, so we walked around Temple Square for a little while.
 They have a whole part on the building and construction of the SLC temple, and little bits and pieces of information about the town.
 Brandon happens to be related to the main architect that helped design and construct the Salt Lake City Temple.
 They had a little mock up of his office and a package even, so I could actually remember the man's name! hahaha Truman O. Angell
 I love this man!
 There were protesters outside the Energy Solutions Arena,but my favorite part was the grown man dressed as an elephant! AWESOME!
 Piper (my niece) was born in the middle of August, and Piper the elephant was born around the same time!! hahaha
 NOW...THE CIRCUS PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!
 THE ELEPHANT COULD PAINT! HAHAHA

 waiting for it to REALLY start.

da da da da dun dun da!






 This one lioness named Princess seriously kept trying to attack the guy in there with them. They had to take her out of the circle, and then they just ended that portion. It was kinda scary.









The whole theme was "Dragons" and the whole time they were searching for the dragon. At one point you would see the eye, at another, the tail and then finally at the end...THEY FOUND THE DRAGON!
 The last weekend in September (I think that's when it was) Brandon, Carla (our really good friend) and myself went to the Crazy Corn Maze in West Jordan!

 Carla and I in the middle of the maze.
 All of us outside. And, yes, those are the porta potties. We were waiting for Brandon when we decided that we needed a picture of us three.


Hopefully we'll be going on some new adventures soon!!! :) Check soon for more updates!
Love you all! =)

All the rumors...

ARE TRUE!!!!
Brandon and I are expecting a baby! :)
We found out in mid July, and are due on March 28th, 2013!!!
We are not finding out the gender of the baby because we want the surprise. We want the fun. We want the guessing.
We already have names picked out for both genders, so that isn't holding us back!
There have been a few issues, just with me, thankfully. The baby is perfectly healthy thus far and things are progressing just as they should be.
We have only seen the baby at just over 8 weeks pregnant, so it was just a little blinking kidney bean! hahaha
But, we have the opportunity to see the baby again at the begining of November!
WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!
We didn't think we'd get pregnant the first try, but we are very grateful that we have this amazing opportunity to become parents.
