Adam & Amanda came to visit

I know, I know it had been way to long since I posted but so much has been going on and Facebook has been enough for me right now to update. But Yes my brother Adam came to visit us in North Carolina with his new wife Amanda. She is a doll and fits right in with us.
So they flew in on Saturday and we headed to the coast first thing Sunday morning. The drive was way fun, Amanda got to see the gorgeous country side of NC. SHe kept saying, gosh it is so GREEN out here with all these trees. I remember saying the same thing when I first moved here. We stayed over night in a cute ocean side hotel in Atlantic beach and really enjoyed the evening just sitting on the beach. Then we went again the next day to get some sun. Then Monday we drove home and started our weekly planned out adventures for Amanda and Adam while I worked for a couple of days. Adam is a huge Duke Fan unfortunentley and so he just had to go up to the campus in Durham to get pictures. then later in the weekn was Adams birthday, BIG 23 so I took the afternoon off and we went to a Greensboro to eat dinner and enjoy a Greensboro Grasshopper Baseball Game, but of course it got rained out. But we really enjoyed eachother and had some great talks! I miss them already! But here a a bunch of pictures of the week of FUN!!

Birthday Suprise Beach Trip

I just wanted to share with you the Birthday suprise that Tony gave me. I woke up Saturday morning and he said Pack your bags.... ummmm Ok why? "I am taking you to a special place" I was so excited! We went to a place called Broad Creek which it in Morehead City NC. Tony has a friend that owns a summer home in Broad Creek. We had so much fun just the two of us. But I did get sun burned to a Lobster stage. But all worth it in the end. Here are a few pictures Enjoy...








This is the view that we had from the house we stayed in near the water way. AMAZING!

Our New addition

I have been such a slacker on posting, but better late than never! Tony has pulled yet another trick on bringing home a dog. See we already have a huge dog that eats us out of house and home! But of course I fell in love with our new dog. He is a solid black lab,with a bit of chow i think. He is in his teenage years i belive. His name is Rosco! lol But he looks like a baby monkey. lol he is cute, Here are a few pics!

Finally, Snow in the South!!!

Just a quick post of our snow we got last week. It was beautiful..I miss the snow soooooooooo much.What is so funny is that down here in the south we dontmuch but a snow storm but twice a winter, So when we do it basically shuts the city down. Schools are closed, businesses shut down for the day. Basically it is because we dont have the equipment that most states have that have serious weather. Here are a few pictures of our SNOW DAY.It was fun!!

Trip to Utah!!

This is a great memory for us, Tony wispered in my ear and said "I am going to get you back home soon!! He loved it so much!!
We made it! First of all the wedding was absolutley beautiful as you can see from the pictures on the previous post!The plane trip went well, Tony did really, really good. I had to drug him so he really dont remember a whole lot but he did say he would fly again, and next time he would rather not be doped up . lol His Dr gave him some zanax, so he was on cloud nine. IT was sooooooooo great to see you all, I miss you already! And to finally get to hold my new nephew Jack. I have soooooooooooooooooooo many pictures.... Enjoy!
This is up in Little Cottonwood Canyon, It was so beautiful! Tony was amazed at the mountains, let me put it like this, TONY was amazed at the whole enitre trip!
