Pizza & Root Beer

After Maddie's party Dave and I went with my friends Ashley, David, Stephanie, Alexis, and Brandon to a place in H.B called Brewbakers. You get to brew your own beer (or root beer in our case) eat pizza, and make pretzels. I had never even heard of this place, so we figured it was something a little out of the ordinary for a Friday night.

We had to roll this heavy keg thing back and forth for like fifteen minutes. It was pretty funny. After Ashley got bored rolling it, she hopped in a basket on the back of a bike and took a little ride around the parking lot.

So after we kicked the can, we bottled our own rootbeer and took it home.

It was pretty darn good!

Happy Birthday Maddie!

Yesterday was Maddie's birthday party at Chuckie Cheese. Is it ok to admit that I like that place every once in a while? I think it's just the pizza...because I definately know its not when Chuckie starts dancing with all his creepy friends. There was a nice power outage a few minutes after we got there, so we all sat in the semi-dark and waited for the lights to come back on. Eventually they did. But anywho...it was nice to see Katie, Randy, their family and some of our friends. Me and Dave are a little too old for the games, so we just sat and ate and chatted. Dave came up with a good idea for a den or bonus room once we get a house. A ball room. Like the one's there and at McDonalds. Good idea....in theory. Maybe when we have kids...cause if I were a kid, that would be awesome!

Oh and the best part was getting to hold Delaney most of the time :)

A place of our own

Well, our apartment is coming along. Slowly but surely. It seems like every time I get it really clean and tidy, something messy comes along. For example, dinner always creates a mess. Not a huge one, just one I would rather not make. But I can't leave dirty dishes. I'm not that kind of girl i've come to find. Then we get a fabulous new bedroom set!...which leaves my old stuff everywhere. But, I might have to take all my complaining back, because as I type, Dave has stuffed all my old bedding into boxes and is putting them in our storage! Anyways, I'm super excited to get our wedding pictures so I can finally put things in frames and hang stuff on the walls. But, until then, what I have is pretty cute...or I think so at least!

When Dave and I got back from our honeymoon, his sister and bro in law had got us a dining room table and set it up. We were so excited to have a place to eat!

(don't mind the big box in the background...Its a mirror we still need to hang up)When we were registering at Target, apparently Dave scanned a pig holding a chalkboard...and we got it. He loved it, and pretty much put his foot down and said we're keeping this!

So, it's in our kitchen, and he's written sweet things on it in the mornings, which is so totally cute...even though I thought the pig was icky and ugly. haha.

This weekend Dave and I got the cutest beadspread for our new bed. We're in love with it, and we're now getting things to finish up the decorating touches in the bedroom.

Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!

Well, i don't have much time (Dave is sitting next to me saying stop blogging so I can spend time with him...) so i'll keep it brief.

1. I'm married.

2. The temple was amazing. I loved seeing so many loved ones there.

3. We totally didn't feel any different driving home. Just on a mission to get a Carls burger.

4. My bridesmaids looked fabulous!

5. The reception was beautiful.

6. ...from what I remember of it.

7. Fastest 3 hours of my life.

8. I officially dispise red eye flight. Especially on wedding nights.

9. I think I drank my weight in Diet Coke on the cruise.

10. We had such a good time on the honeymoon!

11. Which brings me to the new idea Dave and I had....to retire so we can be on a constant vacation. Good idea huh?

So here's a few pics of our week in the Caribbean!!

i'll post more later!

In less than two days....

I'll be a married woman! Mrs. Anderson to be exact :)

I love Katie and Shawnelle

Now that I'm getting older, I am admiring my friends more and more. I believe I have been truely blessed to have amazing people in my life.

This past Friday Katie and Shawnelle both put on a lovely bridal shower for me. The food was GREAT, especially the delicious brushetta sandwiches and the thai pasta salad, the centerpieces looked so cute, and the work that I know they put into it made me realize how much they care.

They even played this game that I'd never played before. As I opened my presents, the girls had to write down things I said that I could say on my wedding night. I laughed so hard when they read them all. It was so funny. "I'm done now. Thank you."

I love these two girls, and am so glad we have so many memories that tie us together throughout the years. As my wedding gets closer, I look forward to being more on the same level as them, married, and starting a family. I love how they have husbands and children, but still took the time to put together something so nice for me. So thank you. I love you both!

Lake Silverwood

This last Saturday a group of us from our ward went to the lake and took John's boat. We had such a good time, and the weather wasn't that bad either. Between the nice breeze and the semi-cold water, it balanced out the heat pretty nicely. I got up on the wakeboard...but need some more time and repeated tries to get better. Watching some of the guys have tube wars was by far the most entertaining. I was just excited to spend a fun day out with friends before the wedding. It was relaxing and just what I needed! Here's some moments from the day.
