14 Weeks Later!

Well if you go back to the beginning of my blogging you can see I'm not very good at updating our blog. New Years Resolution...more blogging!!! It was a great Holiday Season for Nick and I. Lots of family, friends and alone time. We had a Happy Halloween, a great Thanksgiving, a very Merry Christmas and a Fun New Years. Here's what we've been up too.

Halloween...this year I started a tradition I hope to keep alive. I went with my 2 sister in laws and Meagan's friend to Witches Night Out at Gardner Village. I hope next year we can add my mom and sister and a new sister in law. We had a great time dressing up and having a girls night.

For the last couple years Nick and I go to Trevor's Halloween Party in SLC...this year was so much fun...we all had similar costumes, we went with a animal theme. Nick and I were a Monkey and Banana and Kenzi and Trevor were a skunk and a chicken. It was a blast and we loved dancing the night away!

For Thanksgiving my parents hosted it at their house. It was the first time in a long time we had the entire Toone side there...anuts, uncles, cousins, fiances, and a new neice! We also made it to Nicks parents house for another delicious meal! We went to the movies later that night and saw Blideside...what a great movie, I can't wait until it comes out on DVD..I will definately purchase that one!

We attended lots of Ugly Sweater Christmas Parties during December and had fun with White Elephant gifts too...we framed this picture as one of our gifts, if you want a copy I do have plenty so let me know...this may also be our Christmas Card next year we sent out!

We had Christmas morning with my parents and then later went back to Nicks parents to hang out with the family. We had such a good Christmas, everyone spoiled us!! We got clothes, house stuff, and my most favorite part....NEW Digital SLR Camera!! I'm so excited to get started with Photography...pictures and post to come!




For New Years we did our Annual Midnight Ski night up at Wolf Mountain. This is our 2nd year doing this and it was so much fun. I'm not going to lie I wasn't too hip on going just because it had been so cold that week and I kinda wanted to get dressed up and do something on the town, but I did give in because it had just snowed so good snow and a few friends decided to go too. It ended up being a great night on the slopes, perfect weather and great way to end the year! Happy 2010 everyone!!!!

First Anniversary

This weekend Nick and I celebrated our first year anniversary. It was a blast. Nick got up early Saturday to take a test for midterms and then we were off for the day. We stopped and had lunch at Paradise Bakery and then off to Snowbird Resort for Oktoberfest. We got up there and went to our GIANT room with a perfect mountain view. We went down to the festivities that were going on at the resort center.

We rode the Tram to the top of the mountain 11,000 feet and 29 degrees with the wind blowing at 30 mph and snow.....it was freezing up there but what a beautiful view!


We went back down to the resort center and rode the ZipRider...yes I beat Nick, then off to the Alpine slide....yes I KILLED Nick again. I think that first race down the alpine slide was the fastest anyone has ever gone down. I was like 2 turns ahead of Nick, I was laughing so hard I could hardly breathe at the end. That was by far the funniest thing. Nick wanted a rematch at both the ZipRider and Alpine Slide...we switched sides so it was fair. This time on the ZipRider I was in the lead, but Nick did a little tuck action and definately took the lead. Now the score was Shaylee 2 Nick 1....off to the Alpine Slide...we switch tracks again, neck and neck for the first 2 turns and then once again I took off taking the lead....but in the background I heard screaming like a girl.....I slowed down but still won, we got to the bottom and Nick looked like he was definately in some pain....WELL FELL OFF HIS CART!! Ha ha. The ending score Shaylee 3 Nick 1. after the slide we went down to the festivities and watched the performers, walked through the booths, and through the shops.


We went back to the room and got ready for dinner. Nick gave me DIAMOND Earrings.....he gave me some for my birthday 2 years ago but these are bigger and better....they are so pretty, I had to wear them to dinner. We went to the Steak Pit for dinner, during dinner we had a visitor come by....Larry the Porkipine, he was HUGE! After dinner we went down to the pool and hot tub.....so relaxing!!! After the hot tub we were beat and went to bed. It was a perfect day and night and I couldn't asked for a better husband. He truely is amazing, always has suprises, always planning fun things, he's great but most importantly he's my best friend and I love him. I can't believe how fast 1 year has gone by, what a great year. I can't wait for more anniversary's to come!

Well it's been over a month....

So either I really suck at this whole updating the blog thing or we have boring lives! Well I know we are NOT boring so it must be I suck at updating!! Well Nick finished his semester up at Weber, and I'm so proud of him, he had a tough schedule but managed to pass everything fine! I actually got to help him with one class that was online. Go me! Since school has been out Nicks been playing alot of golf....he thinks for the whole summer he should be able to golf every Wednesday down at Thanksgiving Point. He saw on KSL that every Wednesday is only $15 for 9 holes and cart!! So far he's been 2 weeks in a row, we'll see how the rest of the summer goes.
I went to the Tulip Festival with Cam, Jana, Meagan, Easton and Savy a few weeks ago. I had never been to Thanksgiving Point and it was beautiful! It was perfect weather and great to walk through all the gardens.


Last weekend we took a trip down to St. George to enjoy some sun, pool time and hiking. Kenzi and I went down late Wednesday night and got to enjoy the pool, sun and got our tan on!!! Everyone else came down Friday and we spent the rest of the weekend, swimming, hiking, BBQ, and Pizza Factory! We had a blast with everyone, thanks guys!!
