KANSAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a blast in Kansas!! It was great seeing the family. A week was definately too short. Here are some of our adventures.

On Thursday Greg and I drove to Hays to visit Annie and Kevin. They took us to the Sternberg Museum. It has different dinosaurs that were found in Kansas. We LOVE Annie and Kevin!!!!

On Tuesday we got to celebrate Kaytie's 1st birthday at Pizza Hut with the whole family!

Updates...

After much deliberation I have decided that I am going to start blogging again. So here is and update on the Reese family. Greg and I are both still working our little buns off. It seems to take up most of our time and we don't like how is keeps us apart most of the day, but it is helping to get us through college, which is always a good thing. When we are not working we love spending time with one another. At the end of the day we love just relaxing and watching movies together. It is definately my favorite time of the day! I look forward to the time when school is over and we have time together during the day. We can't complain though life is pretty good we are still as in love as we ever were, and we are living comfortably in this economy. We also are really excited for April to come!!! It looks like it is going to be a pretty exciting month for us. The first week of April we are taking a trip to Kansas to visit my family. With our wedding and everything that has gone on this year we haven't been able to go home. My family was here during the wedding but everything was so busy that we really didn't have a lot of time together. I am so excited I can't stand it. A week is so long to wait!!! Every time I call home my dad gives me and update of the countdown. Also at the end of this month Greg and will be visiting Cleveland. Wes graduates from dental school at the beginning of May. Lucky for me I have a lot of cavities so we are flying out so that I can be his patient for his state boards. We're really just excited to go to Cleveland cavities being filled are just a plus. I have never been to Cleveland, so I am excited to see the sights!!! As soon as we get back I promise I will get pictures up and blog about all of our adventures!

These are our awesome 3D glasses. On my birthday Greg took me to my first 3D movie. Let's just say it was AMAZING!!!

BYU VS Wake Forest

For Christmas this year one of our gifts was tickets to some of the BYU basketball games. Yesterday we had the opportunity to go to the first one. BYU was playing Wake Forest. It was suppose to be a really good game...which it was. The game was pretty close the whole way through which makes things fun. It was also the second largest crowd that BYU basketball has seen. Our seats were with Charles, Valerie and Sydney. We had fun watching Sydney cheer and dance all through the game. She is so dang cute!!! Although the night was fun, BYU did lose.

Ps. The Utes did, however, win the Sugar Bowl...Greg is so proud!

Christmas with the Family!!!!!

Greg and I had a wonderful Christmas. We loved being able to spend it with Greg's family. We got lots of great presents and had lots of good food. I also enjoyed being able to join in on Greg's Christmas traditions. We bothed agreed that we love Christmas together, and are looking forward to many more to come!!!

Greg's Birthday!!!!!!!

Greg turned the big 25!!!!! For his birthday I got him the first and second season of 30 Rock, which he claims is better than The Office. I don’t know if I agree with him but I do enjoy watching it with him and listening to him laugh really hard. It makes my day. So I have to give myself some credit, I had the hardest time getting the first season. I thought I would be a smart shopper and price around to see where I could get the best deal for both seasons. I found one store that was the cheapest for the first season and one that was cheaper for the second season. Let’s just say the smart shopper thing bit me in the butt. I bought the second season at the one store and then went to get the first season at the other store. By the time I got to the store, they were sold out. I spent the next four days searching for a store that was not sold out of the first season. I finally got the last copy reserved at Target!! Who knew that 30 Rock was that popular?
That evening went out to dinner with Greg’s family to celebrate his birthday. It was really fun. The night before, Greg and I had gone out to eat just the two of us so that we could celebrate together. Greg is amazing and I am so grateful to have him in my life. He is so special to me. I love Greg Reese!!!!!

Ps. Just ignore the Utah hoodie.

Christmas

Here is our beautiful Christmas Tree. Thanks to Greg’s mom we had a little bit of Christmas brought to our apartment. I love looking at it with the lights off. One of my favorite things about Christmas is the trees. It would not be Christmas without a tree. I have been so lucky this Christmas I have had the opportunity to help decorate multiple trees. My favorite one by far was Greg’s grandma’s tree. She has a tree with nothing but Lenox glass ornaments. It is so pretty and the best feature is that is spins so that you can see the whole tree. I love everything about Christmas. I have to say it is probably one of my favorite holidays. I love how everyone at Christmas is so happy. Even though I complain about it I do love the snow. Not so much the driving it but everything else is awesome. Growing up in Kansas my siblings and I always hoped and prayed for snow on Christmas. It was rare that we ever got enough snow that actually acumualted more than an inch. In Utah, however, they have the seasons right. There is the perfect amount of snow for Christmas. I am so thankful for the birth of our Savior and for the opportunity that we have been given to celebrate and honor his name!
