We HeArT the Holidays!

We had SO much fun in December! Gar came home on the 13th and is still here so we have been able to do more than usual. We have seen some good movies AVATAR being one of our new favorites, we didn't think we would like it at all but we were way wrong.

We celebrated my 21st Birthday! Gar and I are like little kids so on the morning of my birthday we both were up at 6:00am because we were SO excited!! He couldn't wait any longer for me to open my presents. He gave me a video camera and some head bands! I was SO SO SO HAPPY, I have been wanting a video camera for awhile! Later that day Gar had told me that we were going to go eat at the melting pot, well on our way there my mom called him and said she had to stay late at work but that she had my present and she wanted us to stop by and get it. So we did and little did I know that my sneaky little husband and planned a surprise party with family and friends!! I was so embarrassed because I don't like having the spot light on me AT all, but I was so happy that Gar had put so much thought into it and I was able to spend the night with all the people I love! I love Garett SO much!!!!




We went to Temple square with Garrett, Anj, Natalie, and Rhett. It was nice to go out with them! The lights were so pretty like always!




Christmas this year was with my family but we did go up and see garett's family christmas day! It was our second Christmas together being married! We loved being able to be with our family and seeing all the little kids open their gifts!


The day after Christmas we went up to Jolley's Ranch with my family and went sledding and had hot chocolate and ate lunch!

New years eve we went out to eat and then played games! It was fun!!!

It has just been so wonderful to have Garett home and not be rushed and just be able to sit back and relax with each other!!! I still can't believe that 2009 is over... it went by SO fast. It was a great year though!!!!!
