SPRING BREAK!!!

Come back.

We had sooo much fun this last week! We were lucky enough to be able to take a little road trip down to Utah to go mt biking in Moab and then back to park city for a little spring skiing and to celebrate my moms birthday!

& on the way down Braydon got a little toy he has been dying to have!
He finally got to buy his camera! I've got to admit it is pretty sweet! It takes amazing pictures and shoots video in HD. 


I am so happy that he loves taking pictures and video because they are so fun to have! He is always making little videos of our trips and fun adventures and I love it! So thanks babe. J

                                                              Our first camping spot! 

                       If you cant tell from the picture, I am in the trunk. yes we slept in the trunk the first night :) The camper Kia as Braydon calls it, worked out quite nicely! haha We were nice and warm and got to cuddle all night.
                                            Camping spot #2 Was perfect! So much room, and sand and sun! we had our own fire-pit and table and a nice sandy spot for our tent! which didn't turn out quite as soft as we had imagined, but since when is camping very comfy anyways?
                                                          Hanging out in the tent!
                                                    fire & smores, yum yum!
                                                                            I spy... us:)
                                                              @ Gemini Bridges... soo amazing!
this is us. eating on the side of the road... we love this setup and i think we are going to now cook on the side of the road on every road trip! hot fresh meal comin right up.....um yes please! 


The weather was beyond perfect that week! It felt so good to be in the sun again for a little bit!
It was also my first time riding my bwith clips....Needless to say I have quite a few bruises on my scratched up legs! Not to mislead you into thinking I am a rad mt biker, No…. I just seemed to slowwwwly tip over whenever I stopped. Haha It was funny but frustrating too! Braydon was sweet though and kept trying to help me learn all the techniques to biking, im so lucky to have him teach me because he is soooo dang good. He is the best. (he disagrees with that, but he is!)

We biked with a big group of people from Boise and had such a great time! Our favorite trail was slick rock. We only rode two days, all day and we were DEAD tired!

Here is a little video of our day at park city! Braydon rocks it like always and then there is me… hahaha don’t laugh too hard. I know my tricks are, well lame. & as colton puts it.. “ HA, you cant even do a 360??” ….but HEY im trying right?? I know I need to man up and do something cooler but im just a little scared.


Moab+MtBiking+Skiing+lots of sun= :)

my mom.

Happy Birthday! I just want you to know how wonderful of a person you are. I hope that you had a good day and know how much we all love you! You are so sweet and care so much about everyone, you have a big heart. I love that about you, & I really try to be like that. You are so smart and handy and I swear you know how to do everything and more. Like super woman’s twin sister or somethingJ You are a beautiful mother and I think that a lot when I look at you. Thank you sooooo much for everything you do for me and for Braydon and all of our family.  We appreciate it so much! Thanks for always being there and for being so easy to talk to and understanding. I Yyou sooo much!!! Happy late birthday again! You are a blessing in all our lives.

Wedding day film.... check it out!

It came! & We love it! we are so excited to have this video to remind us of that special day forever J

click on the link below to see it!


as of Lately...

Braydon has been so busy lately with school full time and coaching track at the high school, Track meets two nights a week, studying, and homework…

Nicole is working on finding a job! And is getting really sad because no one in the whole city of Boise wants her. This is true. She is not giving up though and knows she will find one soonJ
While she is not working she has been staying busy with cleaning, laundry, running a little, cooking a little, working with Steve and Angie a few days (thankyou!) a little babysitting, helping Braydon with his homework when he asks J, applying to jobs and searching Craig’s lists like a mad woman.

Colton gets baptized!
My little brother Colton who is growing up so fast just got baptized on Sunday the 20th of March and we were lucky enough to be there for the event! It was so wonderful seeing my dad baptizing my little brother J & and seeing my husband help out with the confirmation! I loved it. He is getting so big and is such a funny kid. He is always making me laugh! Colton I miss you!

Braydon was sick all weekend and last week, it was horrible. He had a bad fever, sore throat, and the chills. He was so cute bundled up in bed I just had to get a picture!


HONEYMOON. need i say more?

We woke up early on Sunday and started our drive to California! It was a long drive but we finally made it to Las Vegas and then Long Beach where we boarded our cruise!

The cruise was so much fun, & the food was delish! Braydon brought his go pro and filmed everything! Here is the documented trip! Enjoy…


Wedding Day 2-11-2011

Everything went by way too fast! Looking back now I wish somehow I could have slowed things down a little and enjoyed it even more. It was such an amazing day! So surreal. I loved the temple, it was so beautiful and it was so amazing having my parents and Braydon’s parents and so many of our family members and friends there to celebrate that special moment. It was the greatest feeling ever being sealed to Braydon. I feel so lucky and we both know that we are doing the right thing, and we are meant to be together. We are best friends & I wouldn’t want to be sharing my life with anyone else. I love him sooo much!!! and I couldn’t be happier that we are finally married!!!! Its about dang time too... It seems like this is something I have waited forever for. I am so grateful that everything ended up working out the way it did. And for Braydon for not giving up on us, and giving it one more shot :) I can’t thank him enough! I love you!






he is so cute.
