dinner sayings

Kevin got home from work and dinner was on the table. For some reason, he took off his pants right when he got home and just sat down at the table. I was going to ask him why but forgot when he started telling me about his day. Halfway through dinner he looks down and goes

"where did my pants go?"

I told him I was wondering the same thing.

"Oh boy do I feel sheepish" he says while he gets up to put on his pants.

Living with a boy is funny.

cool it renters.

We rent out the top area of our house, so we live in the basement. Don't worry its all walled off and we have a completely different entrance; so its not like we eat dinner with them or anything. Our renters are a young couple with a 2-3 year old girl and a newborn baby boy. Well this young mom is crazy. I think she might have Kevin's number on speed dial, and since her husband can't do a thing (or so it seems), Kevin gets a lot of texts and calls:

"What do I recycle?" (yes, she really asked kevin this)

"There are a few ants by my oven"

"Can you blow out your candle, it is giving me a headache"

"There is smoke up here" (haha this one was funny. We found that our BBQ outside was right underneath a vent that went straight up to the second floor, so everytime we BBQ...they got some smoked out. we laughed while we moved the BBQ)

"Your snow machine is falling off the trailer" (what? did you mean SNOWMOBILE?)

And many more I just can't think of any more right now.
Well tonight I was broiling some fish, and as many as you know, when you cook in a small area, things are bound to get a little smokey. Well it did and I opened our door to help air it out. But the smoke alarm still went off. I quickly ran over and tried to turn it off- which it did in less than 45 seconds. But don't you worry she text Kevin (who is usually always gone at work).
"The smoking alarm is going off and their is smoke in the house!"
NO. DUH.
Open a window.
Open your door.
Try to do something on your own.
Kevin feels like he has two wives. Poor guy.

hope I don't GET giardia...

We decided to do a snow hike instead of snowshoeing on Thanksgiving. Of course the trail was blocked and locked off, but did that stop us? No. Who says we can't enjoy a snow hike to a waterfall on Thanksgiving? No one (or so we think). The waterfall was really cool. It had iced over, yet their was still quite a flow underneath it. It was neat to watch it and listen to it.

Here is a video of the waterfall. It also shares a funny conversation between me and Kevin. I of course grabbed the biggest icicle I could find and started sucking on it. Right before he started recording, Kevin warned me I would get sick.

I know I know, I am like a little girl...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Yep its that time. The Christmas Tree is already up and we both love it.
mal-made creme brulee for tomorrows festivities. I already ate one.
A happy thanksgiving from me
And a happy thanksgiving from me


I love this holiday season. I love Thanksgiving. I love stuffing and turkey, but mostly stuffing. I used to really love sweet potatoes, especially the candied kind my grandma made, but since I ate a sweet potato right before my last episode of the stomach flu, I can't even think of them without getting sick. Sweet potatoes meet Nutella, Nutella meet sweet potatoes.
Our plans tomorrow:
Go snowshoeing with just me and the hub
Eat yumminess with my family
Go and see Harry Potter (yeay!)
Come home eat some mal-made creme brulee, cake, and pie.
Its going to be good!

I like her a lot

I used to get so annoyed with friends that would become obsessed with their nieces and nephews. They would have their pictures on their wallpaper of their phone, they would always talk about how cute and funny they were and I just wanted to be like "I honestly could care less about your nieces and nephews...Get a life!" But now look at me. I am in love with my little niece Hadley.
What have I come too?? I guess everyone goes through this stage. OH well. I love her. And I DO think she is the cutest and funniest little girl ever. But my other nieces, Alta and Ellie, come in a very close second.

But look at her in her pig-tails! She is turning into a little girl!

we are going to massachusetts..

...well a picture of us is:

We looooooved our wedding photographer. I still find myself looking through all my wedding pictures all the time. Im so happy with them. And I am so happy I am still so happy with them. For everyone that is going to get married...find yourself a GOOD photographer and SPEND the money. It is totally worth it.
Well this photography collection with us on the bottom is going to be displayed at the Hallmark Institute of Photography in Massachusetts! It got me so excited when I saw it that I had to share it with you.
Thank you Jason McGrew for being awesome!

this is magical

This doesn't make me a BYU fan. I am still a Ute fan through and through... BUT...this is just magical. I know a lot of people like to make fun of Harry Potter, and I think that is just sad. Who cares if you think Harry Potter is cool, this doesn't make you a nerd! I think reading a book that takes you to a magical place is awesome and sooo cool. My name is Malorie Brower, I love Harry Potter and I am a Mormon.
