• We moved for the 3rd time since we have been married.
• We celebrated our 3rd year anniversary!
• We found out on July 7 that we were expecting another baby!
• We started looking for a house to raise our family in.
• We found out on October 12... That we were having another GIRL!
• Brandon turned 25!
• We debated about baby girl names.
• On December 21st we agreed on a name!

2012 is just around the corner and it is going to be bringing more blessings in our life. 

Christmas!!!

Brandon and I had a wonderful Christmas getting to spend time with both of our families.  We opened our gifts under the tree and more than half of them were/are for our little girl Zoey Margaret. 

Brandon's Gifts:

• a BYU cheer leading outfit for his little girl. size 0-3 months so that she can have her newborn pictures with her being his little cheerleader to get him through school.
• BYU booties for his little girl.  So that they can snuggle together with their BYU slippers.
• Cologne
• Modern Warfare 3
• a pocket knife
• the DVD Amazing (about BYU's Basketball team last year with Jackson Emery's autograph)

Jessica's Gifts:

• a new robe that is so comfy cozy warm
• 2 DVDs Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken and The Borrowers
• Zoey's Baby Memory Book
• A HOPE CHEST (the ultimate surprise gift) to store Little Lexy's things... and soon to be other little memorable things.

After opening up presents we went up to my parents house where we had the best breakfast Eggs Benedict, hash browns, and sausage.  YUM!  We gave mom a deck of cards that had 52 reasons why we love her, and my dad got some snack foods mixed nuts and beef jerky.  Brandon got a nice soft blanket, I got a new sweater and little miss Zoey got a pair of new born furry boots.  My sister gave Zoey a chick onsie and a pair of pants because her nickname is Chicky and Sesame Streets Zoe's First Adventure book.

After my parents house we went home to take a much needed nap... after our nap we got up and went to Brandon's families house and had a nice turkey buffet style dinner where we could just go snack.  The afternoon was filled with playing games.

I hope  everyone had a MERRY CHRISTMAS!

MERRY

CHRISTMAS!!!

good read and movie

Looking for a good read and than a good movie to follow the read.  THE HELP by Kathryn Stockett is an amazing book.  I read the book before I saw the movie and it made me think.  Than I watched the movie and they did a good job following the book to movie.  Read the book! Watch the movie! Love the quote!

A Question For You?

WHY MEN AND WOMEN CAN'T BE FRIENDS?

WHEN HARRY MET SALLY

UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY

BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY

I'm going to say that men and women CAN'T be friends...  

• first reason- well I'm married and yes I'm friends with my hubby.  But we didn't get married just because we were friends. We got married because I'm going to let you in on a little secret we were in LOVE and wanted to share our lives together! Shocker I know!
• second reason- I can say I'm friends with boys but not really... I'm friends with boys because they are either friends of my hubbies or they are my girl friends husbands or awesome brother in-laws.  But I personally don't call them up to go do stuff with them when I'm bored.  I call up my girl friends to go do things.  When hubby and I are bored we call up our friends and go hang out.  Usually it turns out the boys are in one area playing video games or whatever boys do and the girls are doing what we do best talking.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK CAN MEN AND WOMEN BE FRIENDS???
