HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Halloween was so much fun this year. We dressed up the dogs and went to Park City for the Howl-o-Ween walk. Brutus was the Joker from the new Batman movie, his friend Ziggi, was Batman, and Miss My-My was a princess. I wanted her to be catwoman, but I couldn't find a costume for her. They had a blast though and got a ton of comments. We had people asking us if they could take pics and video of our dogs.

The pups all dressed up and ready to strut their stuff

He actually wore the hair all night. We were impressed.

My-My with her booties still on. They didn't last

to long

Awe Zig is so cute!!

And after they struted their stuff they were all tuckered out.

mY FiRsT TrIatHaLoN!!

Myself, Chrissy, her sis Tammy, Tammy's husband Mike, and their cousin Angie all competed in the Orem Triathalon. It was actually a lot of fun. Tami and Mike(my in-laws) came down from Idaho to see me compete in it; as well as my brother Jimmy. Thanks to everyone for their support in helping me accomplish one of my goals.

Tammy, Me, Chrissy, and Angie

I thought the swimming was going to be the hardest

part but it ended up being the easiest.

It was quite interesting trying to get dressed

after swimming, my arms were all jello-y

The next triathalon I do, I'm not going to ride a

mountain bike that hadn't been tuned up in years.

My awesome brother pushed

me through the last few hundered feet.

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!

Jimmy, me, and my dad

Thanks again to everyone who came out and

supported us!!!!!!

EPPICH FAMILY REUNION!!!!

Brandon's family reunion this year was so much fun. His family owns two cabins on the lake front of Preist Lake, which is at the top of Idaho. I got to meet a lot of the family that I had just heard about from time to time, so it was nice to be able to put faces to names. We had a great time while we were up there. We were able to go boating, play in the water (interesting story), play board and card games, have a sacrament, talent show, and eat A LOT!!!

Brandon's cousin Keldon and his wife Melanie
Mel and I went on a couple 9 milers, it was fun.

Grandpa Eppich and Anita

Tia - Keldon's sis- in the middle

Brandon dipping Issac into the water

Holly - my sis in law- had the best idea to bring up nerf guns.

The kids had such a blast with them.

Brandon with one of the babes

Okay so before the next pic, I need to tell ya'll what happened.

So me, being me, suggested that Holly, Tia, and I dive off the

dock into the water all at the same time. I didn't bother to have

the thought of the water might be shallow.

So I dove in, hit the bottom of the lake, scratched my face and chest

all up, and am lucky I didn't break my neck; as I was lectured by

my entire family. It really wasn't so bad. Nothing scarred or anything,

just a slight headache and a swelled face. Enjoy

Yeah, my bad. lol.

So at the talent show, Kel sang, because he has

an awesome voice. I'm not quite sure why Brandon

was up there instead of Melanie, but it was hilarious.

Me, Momma-in-law, and Brandon

All the kids, grandkids, and Wayne and Anita

It was so much fun. I hope we get to do it next year again.

OuR 2Nd AnNiVeSarY...

So this post is a little late, but, Brandon and I have offically been married for 2 years. WAHOO!!For our anniversary, we went camping up A.F. Canyon. It was so much fun. We were in a little secluded area where the dogs could run around and explore without having to worry about other campers. We also had a little portable radio which was fun because while we were cooking hamburgers and stuff we had music to jam out to. Then today we took the boat out for its first voyage. Brandon and his friend Tyson worked so hard to get it up and running, but it was worth it in the end. Overall it was a great weekend.

Miss My-My wasn't a big fan of the water but she loves being on the boat and hanging out on the bow.

Bubba loved the water. He struggled a little bit to fit into his life jacket, (fat man in a little coat, lol) but we made it fit.

Brandon and Tyson on the boat

I have an awesome husband who I love so much. I have learned so much from him these past two years. I am so apprecieative for the support he gives me and how hard he works to give us the life we have. Thank you so much hun, Love ya tons!!!

was a relaxing day. We went to see the movie Wanted

It was good. I really like Morgan Freeman and action movies.

(Yeah I know tomboy comment, oh well).

Sunday....

We did our traditional take the dogs to the park. I love it. Watching the dogs run around and play while Brandon looks through the Sunday ads and I lay out on the grass trying to get my white legs to tan. Best part of my week.

Thanks everyone for the cards, gifts, and phone calls. Love ya all.

I am.......

Free-spirited and wise. You have a strong passionate spirit that touches and changes all who know you. The wisdom and common sense that you have is really what guides you through life. Even so, you also have a very playful side that loves adventure and excitement.

Which Disney Princess are you?

This past weekend we spent Father's Day up in Idaho Falls. While we were there we were able to get our boat that Grandpa Eppich gave us. We are very very very excited to take it out on the lake. Thanks Grandpa Eppich!!

Dang I have a good-looking husband

With a little TLC this boat is going to be awesome!!!

We are so excited.

When we went up to Idaho Falls this past weekend we got our family pics back (we had them done a few months earlier.)

You will probably remeber them from the wedding
but just in case, here's a review. Brandon's parents are
Mike and Tami. His brother Ryan and his wife Holly,

and their two kids Isaac and Ella.

Our family

Okay MarKey, now I know your kid is cute, but look

at those faces. They just say "love me."

Some lols:

He loves his dad

Miss My-My smiling

Bubba is sooo done

Hope you enjoyed them. (sorry about the weird

spacing in some, I couldn't get it to work right.)

Hey everybody, as I am trying to get this whole blog thing down I thought I woul

d introduce you to our two kids, Brutus and My-My. Brutus is two years old and is a brown merle

pit bull. He has an underbite, so he always has a pouty bottom lip (which plays in his favor, fully.) M

y-My is also a pit bull and is acutally the sister of Miss Zoey and has been a great addition to the family. She will be 3 years old in October. Her full name is Myamitee, but we just call

her My-My. They are the best dogs anyone could ask for, and go with us everywhere. They are also the most spoiled dogs on the planet, but oh well because we have so much fun with them.
