Us at the airport waiting for our flight.
Our flight was at 6:30am so we were both very exhausted
Waiting for the plane to take off.
Andrew watched the Discovery channel
the whole time, I slept.
About a week ago Andrew and I went on an overnighter to Vegas for a Yellowcard concert. It was so much fun! Neither of us had ever stayed on the Strip so we were super excited.



This is us on the shuttle that took us to our hotel.
We are smiling because we had yet found out
that our driver was insane!!!! He drove like a maniac!
We had the ride of our lives.

We stayed at New York New York. It was so awesome!
I'd highly recommend it, plus the bonus was it was reasonably priced:)
Its never a trip to Vegas if you don't go to M&M World

So before we left I was really worried about where we'd eat because of me being allergic to gluten I mean why would there be places in such a busy place that would be aware of my allergy. So I spent alot of time researching and reading a lot of blogs and was very happy to find out that there is alot of places that I could go to and eat without worrying. One of the places I found was called P.F Changs (which I later found out there is 2 here in Utah Yay!) its a chinese restaurant, so my first thought was how in the heck can that be gluten free almost every ingredient in chinese food has gluten, so I looked it up online and they had a whole page of stuff. We ended going there for dinner and our waiter was amazing once he found out my allergy, he was very aware of everything and kept making sure I was happy, it made the experience so good!

              This is Andrews meal                This was my meal it even came on a different plate so that the workers knew it was gluten free and not to touch it unless they wash their hands and change their gloves                            

We decide to treat ourselves to dessert and this was the most amazing dessert ever!!!! It was a chocolate fudge cake type thing (not exactly sure what its called) with a strawberry syrup and fruit and even better its gluten free!

Than Andrew chillin in line.


Sorry for the bad picture but it was dark inside the concert and this was the best we could get.
This is Ryan the lead singer, and no our camera was not on zoom, thats right we were in the second row!
  
Picture 3 is Shawn the violinst he was a blast to watch he was very funny. It was such an awesome concert, so many memories.

reactions from everyone seeing Andrews gross fake slit throat.
We had so much fun seeing all our family and friends dressed up

How the adventures began

So i've heard starting a blog is the new thing, so yes here I am joining in on the fun and getting ready to tell you all the adventures of Andrew and I. So first things first I thought I would tell you how our adventures started.
Andrew and I met our senior year of high school at the Homecoming game, well technically we met 2 weeks prior but Andrew doesn't remember ;) So after 2 weeks of trying to get him to notice me I had given up hope, but to my surprise Andrew noticed me when I was in all of my drill attire (because we had performed that night and for those of you who know drill hair and makeup it isn't pretty) and I had invited him to a party. He came to the party but I didn't pay any attention to him because I didn't care if he noticed me anymore. The next day while I was on my homecoming date I got a call from a fellow teammate who also knew Andrew saying that he asked alot of questions about me and showed alot of interest the night before, so needless to say I was interested again. It took Andrew about a week to invite me to hang out with him and some of his friends and we had alot of fun, but not much happened after that.
So a month had gone by since the Homecoming game and Sadies was coming up and I was debating between Andrew and another guy to ask, my mind was made up when our friend in comin called and said that she knew another girl was getting ready to ask him, so that night I asked him to the dance. I couldn't believe I had just asked him cause I hardley knew him but thanks to my 2 best friends and their mischevious ways they somehow got his number and gave him my number and he asked me out on our first date.
We dated for 2 years before we got engaged, we really got to know each others goods and bads which made our first year of marriage so easy. I guess you could say we are lucky. Andrew said after our first date he knew he wanted to marry me, I on the other hand took a little longer to realize I wanted to marry him too, but not much longer :)
We have now been married for 3 wonderful years, we own a house in West Jordan, and have 2 dogs who are our babies and we spoil them rotten.







Stay tune for more adventures......
