One Year!


October 23rd was our ONE year anniversary!! Brandon surprised me with a song he recorded for me, flowers, earrings, and chocolates :-) I can't believe its already been a year!! I sure miss that day, it was the funnest and most memorable day of our lives. It was so nice to have our families and close friends together with us all at once. I don't think that happens again in this life, right? And I must say it really has been an easy year together. Maybe because we were already dating about 5 years?

Now that I'm out of school it's nice to have less stress at home always studying. Brandon's got it easy right now, he's doing online classes and sometimes I take his tests with him :-) In case you're wondering, these are his classes (kind of ridiculous!): 1) Geology 2) Elvis 3) The Beatles 4) The Beatles AFTER the Beatles. Not too shabby huh? He needs those for electives. Well next semester he will be going to NAU and taking more construction management classes so he will be more busy.

Here's some pictures of our little weekend anniversary trip we just took to Sedona...


haven't seen one of these plants in awhile!

red rocks

hiking

brandon trying to climb everything, as usual!

Safari ride at Out of Africa. this was the coolest part of the place because the bus rides through the habitat they live in and a lot of them live together

Giraffe! We fed him out the window

Zebras! Their enclosed areas are so big it looks like they are just roaming around our desert and seems strange!

meeoww. these guys are caged in.

almost stashed him in my purse!

found this when we were hiking!!

kissing his booboos. he crash landed

Oak Creek Canyon. prettiest place in AZ! never knew it existed...its the drive between Flag and Sedona. And who knew the drive was only 30 min? I didn't!

sittin' by the crick!

Oak Creek Canyon is way pretty. Looks like you guys had a fun anniversary, esp. the part where you almost stole a prairie dog. (I think that's what that is)
