I will title this...BRIAN IS CRAZY :)

Brian decided last semester that he would join the Outdoor Recreation team for BYUI (Just to add a little more time into his schedule) :) They did a team building outing where they went snow camping for three days. They got pulled into camp on their skis by a snowmobile. When they got into camp they dug holes for their "sleeping" area and put tarps over the top. They had a little "kitchen" area and they went skiing all day! Brian had a blast being out but he was happy to come home. I was happy for him to come home too. :)

Forging Update

So Brian and Drake and the boys have moved their blacksmithing into the barn outside. Now it looks like a real blacksmithery...(is that a word?) Anyway. I am the words most horrible picture taker; but just as an update, they have a sign on the barn door that says "FIREBEARDS FORGE." It looks so cool. Brian also made me an awesome banana holder. It works so great. I love Brian and all his many talents!

Thanksgiving 2009!

This year for Thanksgiving we went to the church house with the whole Transtrum Family. It was so fun! It was good to see all of the cousins again and catch up. We played several rousing hours of volleyball and ate LOTS of food. Unfortunately I forgot that I brought my camera until the last minute. So I only have a few pics of my few beautiful cousins and my beautiful grandmother. :)Thank everyone for an awesome Thanksgiving!

Brian Loves Me

One day, I was really sick and everything that could possibly go wrong, did. When I got home Brian had made dinner for me and greeted me at the door with a rose. I love him!!!

Ting Ting

My kitty died. :( sad day

Halloween!

For Halloween this year, we went to our ward trunk or treat. It was really fun but it was sort of a bummer because not that many people were dressed up and so we sort of felt a little dumb. But we had fun. Emily came with us so it was a little more worthwhile. Plus we got some really great pictures out of it! Brian was a farmer, Emily was a greek goddess and I was Legolas (From lord of the rings.)

House Burning Party!

Brian made a house a last year for a project at school. It was so cool and I wanted to keep it as a doll house but we didn't really have anywhere to store it. Brian has been wanting to burn it, or blow it up, or shoot it, for a long time so the Kirkham's kindly had us over for a house burning party. We had dinner and it was so fun to be there!

Masquerade Ball

Brian and I went to a Masquerade ball at the school. It was so fun dancing and being with Aubrey and Colleen. There were also like "half time" dancers!

Our pretty backyard

This is a picture of the leaves right outside our bedroom window. All the leaves are gone now but it was too pretty then to not goof off in its glory!
Im too shy :) I wish
Posing for Brian.
Brian's forced smile. Isn't he handsome?!!!!! woo woo

Time at the Ranch (swan valley)

Brian and I got to go up and spend some time with Colb and April and the kids. It was so fun and they are the best cousins ever. Sadly...this is all the pictures we got. :( (this one is actually a picture inside the silo.
This was Brian's job. :)
Pretty fields grandpa and colby

ACMS party

The games that Construction Management majors play! sheesh!
Brian was the hot dog chef at the party
And yes...we raced up this giant rock wall...I lost... I was wearing tight pants!!! (thats my excuse for losing)
Brian and one of his friends.
Congratulations to Brian who is now the new Historian of the Architecture and Construction Management Society! They had their first party and we took lots of pictures so Brian could do his "historian" duties. It was so fun. They had this yummy corn!

Our almost...trip to Bechler

We planned a trip to Bechler and even got all ready to go but then we all got a feeling to not go. It was sad, but we still had fun getting ready as you can tell. Plus it was so awesome to have Becky there with us for a few days. We sure miss her!
