Celebrate good times- come on!

Basically Zack spoiled me rotten for our anniversary!  I loved it and I am so excited that I now get to have one :)  Our anniversary was on Sunday but we didn't do much for it since, well, it was a Sunday!  Monday he took me shopping to Down East where I had a hay day with their 50% off clearance sale!  I got lots of new cute shirts at dirt cheap prices, can't beat that can you?  Then we went to dinner that night at Macaroni Grill.  It was delicious!


Here we are at dinner



After dinner we came home and toasted to our one year in style (with Martinelli's of course) and watched Harry Potter.

On Tuesday, Zack came home and surprised me with flowers and my wedding band!  We picked it out a few weeks ago and I could not have been more excited to have it!  It is beautiful and I feel newly engaged again because I can't stop looking at my finger.  I got super camera happy and started snapping all those 'traditional' cheesy photos of our rings, so please enjoy.



Just pretend that our hands are on the Temple doors instead ;)

We all know this pose....



In Love

Today we continued the anniversary a little bit more by eating lunch at Braza Grill.  We had our luncheon there and this time we went with Zack's parents and family to celebrate his awesome grades this semester.  We had a ton of fun and were stuffed to the brim!  Here is a picture of us with some of their delicious limeades!



Here's to another blissful 365 days of marriage!  I love you Babe!

Merry Christmas!

Zack and I were very spoiled this year for Christmas!  We had a wonderful day and it seemed like the fun was never going to end!  We got to spend the day with my family.  We woke up in the morning and opened gifts with my parents, my grandpa, as well as Nicole, Justin and Molly.  It is so fun to watch little kids on Christmas!  Nothing better than those excited faces and screams :)

Here we are with a few of our presents: (Oh, mind you we are fresh out of bed so, we look HOTT!)


Ta da!  I present to you the Cricut!!  This is what I went shopping for on Black Friday.  It is from my parents!  I can't wait to use it and get craftin'
 
Zack and his Wii game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In other games, we also got: Super Mario Bros. and Lost Cities




Me and my Snuggie!!  Yes, you better believe it is really that print too!  Love it!




Zack got a studly new sweater and this awesome 'vintage' BYU shirt from the Buckle from my parents.  He looks GOOOD.



Who wouldn't want to walk around in these little slippers?

We were very fotrunate and blessed this season as I hope you all were too.  Among other things we also got lots of fragrances, movies, shoes, shirts, and jewelry.

After spending time at my house we went over to Zack's parents house to see them.  They told us to go up into the craft room where our present was waiting.  It was the biggest box I have ever seen!  We ripped the paper off and there was a box claiming it was a 32" TV.  We both kinda stared at each other in disbelief wondering what REALLY was in the box, it couldn't be a TV right??  Well, it was!  We are now the proud owners of a 32" flat screen TV!  Thanks Linda and Evan!  We couldn't have been more suprised!  We love it and can't wait to set it up in our house.
 
Good haul this Christmas?  I think so!

Galbraith "Christmas Eve"

It was an on year with the Pugh's for Christmas Eve so on the 23rd, we celebrated it with the Galbraith clan.  We had a great time feasting on great food with all the trimmings.  My Mom always knows how to put on a good show.  Here is the table all set and ready for the fun to begin. 



After dinner we watched all the kids act out the nativity.  We haven't done this in our house since I was probably 8 so it has been a while.  Most of the kids weren't sure what to do, but it was still fun to watch. 

Here are all the kids in their Christmas PJ's from Grandma and Grandpa


Shay, Major, Mitt, Lexie and Molly

Snow Hall 405

My freshman year at Utah State I signed up to room with one girl that I knew leaving the other 4 up to chance.  Chance did me a good thing because I love those girls!  We lived in Snow Hall apt. 405!  We had a BLAST that year and very little studying got done!  Our motto- C's get degree's right?  Ha ha.  I think we all got it out of our system by the next year at least.  Although many of them have moved out of the state, gotten married, had kids, or received their masters degree, we still try to keep in touch.  Last Tuesday was no exception! 

Here are a few 'oldies but goodies' pictures from our past adventures as roommates:

Year End Letter

These ladies were on The Jay Leno Show last night and I couldn't keep myself from laughing at this.  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE getting Christmas cards, sending and receiving them.  I hope you can get a laugh out of this.
