Picture for Uncle Mike

Today I watched Addie and Sadie while Desi ran and got her hair cut. Sadie always asks "Where's Mike...?" She loves her Uncle Mike and always goes into his room whenever she comes over. Today she wanted to draw him a picture, and she told me that she had to do it at his desk. So I let her sit in his chair and make him a pretty picture to hang on the fridge. I just thought she looked so cute sitting in his GIANT chair :)

Giant Snowman

Tonight while trying to avoid April's home teachers we went on an excursion. We ended up in a neighborhood near our house where we found the following......

Not sure where that stick came from....April.....

Granted April is like 5 feet......but that is a really big snowman

Christmas Time

This was in the middle of the reflecting pond.

A couple of weeks ago my parents took my whole family out for a day of fun. They decided that instead of giving us gifts or money for Christmas they would take us to dinner, ice skating, and to see the lights at Temple Square. We have done this for three years in a row and we love it! This year it happened to fall on my birthday which was great, because spending time with the Newton clan is one of my favorite things to do. We ended up eating at Texas Road House, then went ice skating at The Gallivan Plaza. We had so much fun! Here are some pictures from the day.

Just for fun

Last week our friend Erin Summerill was so nice to take some pictures of me and Mike. I wanted to have some more pictures of us that weren't engagement or wedding pictures, which is really all I have. We went up to this property near the mountains that had an old bridge and a big red barn. Here is just a preview of them until I get the CD. Also check out Erin's website at www.erinsummerillphotography.com She does such a great job! Thanks Erin!!

The foursome

The crowd rushing the field after out victory!!

We attended the last game of the season for the University of Utah Utes. It was a fantastic game! We played BYU our arch rival and beat them 48-24!! All the Ute fans were cheering and screaming the whole game. BYU was getting humiliated on and off the field....it was a perfect night!! We finished the season 12-0 and are headed to a bowl game!! GO UTES!!!

UTES BEAT TCU!!!

Everyone rushed the field after we beat TCU

Mike and me in our Black Utes gear.

Mike and I have season tickets to the University of Utah football games. They have had a perfect season so far and last night was a big game against TCU. The Utes were having a hard time all night until the last 2 minutes, when they decided to pull there heads out and win the game. Final score Utes 13 TCU 10. It was such a fun and very stressful game. The Utes had new black uniforms so everyone was suppose to wear black for the game. We had a fun time and are so glad the Utes pulled it off! GO UTES!!!

Halloween

Desi the Witch and Ryan with the wicked, awesome comb over!

Okay so I am horrible at this whole blog thing!! Maybe if I had a kid to blog about it might be easier. Anyways here are some pictures from Halloween. We spent the night at Desi and Ryan's with the whole family and then headed to Mike's house for a Halloween party with Emily and Nick. We had a fun time going out and getting dressed up in our costumes....even though they were kind of cheap and just put together really fast. Ryan I think had the best costume by far!! Love the used car salesman look....grrrr!

Date Night

So we went on our first "official married date" on Friday. It was a blast. We decided to go up to Sundance and ride the Ski lifts for the full moon ride. It was so beautiful up the canyon...and only 69 degrees...who could ask for anything more :) After the ski lift ride we headed to Cold Stone for some delicious ice cream.....typical Zoobie date....haha burn on us.

Ambers 28th Birthday

Yesterday my older sister Amber turned 28!! Yeah she is starting to get really old!!! Well at least she thinks so.....lol. We got together and had dinner at Red Lobster to celebrate her birthday. I invited myself and so did Kimberlee so the whole family wasn't there....sorry guys.

Lagoon Day

Mike and I had no money for a honeymoon, so instead we decided to spend a day at Lagoon with our good friends Levi and Lithie. It was really hot and I think most of us were dehydrated by the end of the day....but it was still a fun time :)
