I never thought the holidays could be better...then I got married :)

Seriously, the holidays are SO much better being married! We had a great christmas this year. On Christmas Eve we had to work until 7. Then we drove down to my house in Perry. We ate dinner, then opened our pajamas and ornaments, watched the Nativity and A Christmas Mission, went downstairs and all slept in our family room.

We woke up at 5:30 am and headed upstairs at 6:00 am! We opened all our presents and were done by 7:30 am. Then we watched a movie and played a few games. Brandon and I left at 11:00 ish so we could make it to South Jordan by the time his family got out of church. We got there just in time! Now it was time for Christmas Round 2! The Fonda's make Christmas last a lot longer than my family does haha we spent hours opening presents there. We took a break and skyped Brandon's brother Andrew who is on a mission in Chile. It was fun seeing him for the first time. The family really loved talking to him :) Then we went back to opening presents! We were done by about 4:30. Christmas lasted all day long! It was so fun :) We stayed there for a few days after. Our days consisted of games, watching movies and going shopping. I love having two christmas' and being able to spend time with two families that I LOVE! 

Then it was back to Logan so we could work again. Lame. 

Saturday, December 31st, we had to work. Again. We got off at about 8:45 and headed up the canyon to Perry. Red and blue lights started flashing in out rearview mirror. Brandon looks down to check his speed, he wasn't speeding. We just got our headlight fixed the day before so it wasn't that. Weird. We pulled to the side of the road and the cop came up to the window. He said that Brandon swerved a couple times and that our light for the license plate was out. Luckily, we got away with a warning. We tried to run through our minds of the times Brandon swerved but can't recall anything. Oh well! Then we were really off to Perry. We got to my family's house and played a bunch of games including Just Dance 3 on the Kinect. Then, at midnight we ran outside banging pots and pans and celebrating the new year. 

2011 went by so fast! It has been the best year of my life. Brandon and I met January 23 of last year. He has made my life so much better. I can't thank him enough. We set some goals last night at my house and are excited to achieve them this year. I was sealed to my best friend in 2011...nothing gets better than that. But other than the wedding, we will make 2012 an even better year :)
