Dan in Real Life...

Scot and I just got home from seeing the new movie "Dan in Real Life." It's the new Steve Carell movie that came out yesterday. It was pretty hilarious. We loved it and laughed really hard so we just wanted to blog and let everyone know that we think you all should go see it because we know how much our opinion of movies matters to all of you.

Plates by Us...

Here is another one of our latest concoctions. One day while I was shopping at Hobby Lobby in the Scrapbook section of course I had dragged Scot along so he went off on his merry way wandering around the store and soon came back with this little project in his hands. So what you do is they give you this special paper with some special markers and you can design a plate any way you want. Then once you are finished they have an envelope and you send it off with a check and in about 2 weeks you have a plate designed by yours truly. Pretty cool right?

Our Exciting Date Night

Sometimes it's fun to just sit down and do a good old fashioned puzzle...OK so maybe we are the only ones that think that but amongst the hustle and bustle of our busy week sometimes on the weekends we don't want to fight the crowds in a busy restaurant or go waste our money on some trashy movie so we try to think of something different to do that we either haven't done in a while or that we have never done. When we were dating we did a couple of puzzles and really enjoyed it because we were able to talk and just relax so a couple weekends ago while we were at Wal Mart we decided to pick out a puzzle and we went home and started putting it together. This wasn't just any puzzle though. It was one of those ones with the little teeny tiny pictures on each piece. Oh ya, and we chose a Pirates of the Caribbean puzzle with Captain Jack and the other two people. I can't think of their names, oh well...Anyway it was really fun to sit around and laugh and talk without the T.V. blaring in the background or having to scream at each other across a table while eating dinner in a busy restaurant. As you can see good times were had by all! PARTY ON!

Universal Studios Vacation!

I sure hope I get better at this blogging business...

Our latest adventure took us on a vacation to Florida. We had such a great time! Here are a few photos from our trip:

Here we are after riding "The Hulk" ride. It was the first thing we rode on our first day of vacation. What a great way to start off!

It was sooooo stinking hot in Florida the entire time we were there. I don't think we expected it to be that hot in October but it was. We just felt wet and gross and sticky the entire time. NASTY!

They have these awesome moving walk ways that go from the parking lot to the park entrance. They were a life saver after a couple of long days at the park. They should have these everywhere!!!!

This was on the second day of vacation. By that time I had learned that anything denim wasn't a good idea and that if I had a chance of surviving the unberable heat my hair had to be pulled back! This is a lovely shot right before riding the classic JAWS ride.

Here we are in the section that is supposed to resemble the streets of New York. Even though it looks like it's all gloomy and over cast it was still SOOOO HOT. Oh and did I mention it was hot there?

And finally here we are surfing at Daytona Beach. So the weird thing about this beach was that there was this weird haze coming off the water and it was making us cough like crazy. The lifeguards were even wearing masks. Kind of scary!

Daughtry Concert

At the beginning of the sumer we heard that Chris Daughtry was going to be coming to the Colorado State Fair and that tickets would go on sale at 10am one Saturday morning and that we had better get them fast because they would definitely sell out. So of course I am pumped sitting at the computer the morning they go on sale so that the second the clock hit 10:00 I was ready to purchase the tickets. So it is finally 10:00am and we buy our tickets. We were so proud of ourselves because our tickets were so close to the stage and we were going to be able to see everything so well!

So the day of the concert finally arrives about 3 months later and we get to the fair grounds in Pueblo. We walked in to the arena and we were really excited. Well, we start walking toward the front and walking and walking and walking and at this point we are still feeling really good about the whole situation but as we kept getting closer to the front of the building the less enthusiastic we got. When we finally reached our seats we realize that we must have been the very first people in the entire state of Colorado to purchase our tickets because our seats were located practically behind the stage so unless we were really interested in speakers and wires and buttons we couldn't see ANYTHING! As it got closer to the time the concert was going to start we realized that the place wasn't going to fill up so we took it upon ourselves to move to different seats and ended up getting killer seats with a much better view and had a fantastic time!

Our First Blog

Since it seems like everyone we know is now blogging we decided it was our turn to start one. While our lives may not be as exciting as the rest we hope you will enjoy our blog none the less. See how much fun this is already? We're rhyming!

Enjoy!
