Brandon's New Job!!!



So Brandon just accepted a new job working for Stevens-Henager College in Murray, UT. He will be working as an admissions assistant and getting people to attend their school. He is really excited about this big career change. It will definitely be hard leaving the outdoor industry, especially Rossignol. He has made some really good friends out there. Maybe he can go back to work with them again in the future! But things just worked out at the right time. With the baby coming at the end of March, I'm going to have to stop working. We were kind of stressing about jobs and one that could support both of our incomes enough that I could stay home. And this was our answer. I don't quite fully understand all the details of the job yet, but I will! Brandon starts his first day on March 3rd. We are considering moving down to the SLC area to be closer, but we'll have to see. We are really excited about this! So proud of you honey!

Waiting on Baby!

I'm so in love with the baby's bed/bedding! We had it custom made in California from "The Baby Guy." He has the best stuff! We finally got our crib and bedding all put together. Now our spare/junk room feels more like the baby's room! Can't wait!

Feeling tired these days...

So lately I haven't been sleeping well. I guess pregnancy will do that to you. I'm 32 weeks along and feeling larger everyday! I wake up in the middle of the night because my back hurts, I'm uncomfortable, I have to go to the bathroom, or I have heartburn. Then it's impossible to get comfortable and fall back asleep... especially when your husband is snoring! Love you honey, but it's hard. Anyway it leaves me feeling like I am dragging at work all day. I just wish someone would implement nap time at work.

Winter Dew Tour

Well as mentioned in my previous post, the Winter Dew Tour was at Snow Basin this year. We went up on Saturday to check out the fun events and to see some amazing skiers and snowboarders. There was a half pipe and a slope style contest...which basically means these guys do a bunch of crazy flips and jumps and whatnot. Brandon was very patient with his pregnant wife who was the biggest slow poke climbing around in the snow. All I wanted to do all day was sit down!

Men's Half-Pipe Finals





Men's Slope Style Pre-lims


FREE DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL CONCERT!!!

So this past weekend the Winter Dew Tour was here, well at Snow Basin. As one of the kick offs for the big event, they had a concert in downtown Ogden. They shut down one of the streets and set up a big stage for Dashboard to come play! It was freezing, but a good concert! My only complaint is all those people out there who smoke. Put it out people! Seriously!

Happy 2010!

This year we got a chance to go to the Rose parade on New Year's Day. In the 14 years that my family has live in CA, we have never been. My dad just happens to know someone who goes every year and gets awesome seats. She hooked us up this year! Kind of a fun way to celebrate the new year!


My aunt Lisa and cousin Leah. These two peaches were out visiting from New Canaan, CT. So fun to have them here!

Just love my parents!

So the big thing there is silly string??? We had some fun playing with Luke though!

The streets are just lined with people for who knows how long.




Here's a few of the floats...


The Rose Bowl.


The snowboarding dogs! So dang cute. I wish I could have seen more of them.

Angel Pride. The float did say "The Anaheim Angels."

Christmas 2009

Christmas 2009 with the Leslie's! We had a lot of fun this year. Unfortunately I didn't take very many pictures so here's what I've got...


Cute Mom!

Luke with his new Dinosaur Christmas morning. It's actually pretty cool!

Can't get enough of this face!


The Granddad

Mom and her Mom

Little Lisa Mouse. She was so sleepy.

Sisters

Love these two!

Dad and his new Chargers Jersey. Had to sport it for the game!

Thank heavens for DVD players! We did a lot of driving back and forth to San Diego. This little guy would not have lasted without it. Sporting uncle Brandon's Skull Candy headphones!

Totally random, but while we were down there we went to Huntington and had Ruby's on the pier. Miss those shakes!

My family did also throw me a co-ed Baby Shower. It was a blast. We had a lot of family in town this year for Christmas so everyone got together for the big event. I wish I had some pictures. I'll try to post some later maybe!

Graduation Day!

Friday was Brandon's Graduation! What a great day! I am so proud of him and his accomplishments. Brandon's parents, his brother and his wife, and his grandpa all attended the ceremony. He is so happy to be done with school and is currently seeking out a new job. Way to go Brandon! We are so proud of you!
