Weekend FUN...

So most people believe that when a couple gets married they pretty much fall off the face of the earth. Well, James and I believe that we are the extreme opposite and try our hardest to get out there to spend time with family and friends. This weekend was filled with such quality time with friends and family:
FRIDAY- BODYWORLDS 3
and the story of the heart
We went to this controversial display of "art". Well, James informed his brother Jeff that the reason I wanted to indulge in such activity was because I love art. I am not sure where the train of thought came from, though I do love art, the real reason I really wanted to experience this event was who wouldn't like to see how our bodies work and what makes us tick. I love the "why" questions, and this was the perfect opportunity to get some answers especially for the questions pertaining to my own body. Therefore, James was sweet enough to give in to my curiosity, and even was able to persuade his mom and dad to join us for the evening. It was a night of discovery, learning, laughter, and even a few tears- from Bryan. It was so exciting that one older man who was a bigger fellow, even fainted from the rush- though it might have more to do with the fact the AC was broken and the temperature was a little uncomfortable. After we gained tons of educational knowledge about taking care of our bodies and heart, we decided to go to Olive Garden and stuff our faces full of fatty pastas- we couldn't pass up the never ending pasta bowl. Yummy! It was a night of culture and enlightenment, but mostly of fun and laughter.
Saturday- BYU vs New Mexico Football game

If one fun outting wasn't emough, we had a fun filled saturday as well. We of course went to the UNM vs BYU football game. Though, I am not the biggest sport fan, I was pretty excited to attend this particular game. The reason for such eagerness was because of the AMAZING weather. Most people will disagree with me on this, but I love the weather that forces you to bundle of in coats and scarfs. Not only do I love the opportunity to snuggle up next to my sweetheart, while he is trying to concentrate on the game, but I love sipping hot coco in the autumn breeze as the wind nips at your nose. By the way we won 21 to 3... go Cougars. From the pieces I gather from James, we are doing pretty well this season... right?

Miniature Golfing at Trafalga with Dippin' Dots

So after the intense game we called up some friends and headed up to Trafalga to enjoy a night of miniature golf and my favorite, DIPPIN' DOTS- banana split is by far the best. Me and James won against Madi and Garrett in the miniature golf game, we were so proud. I have to admit me and James usually win at whatever game we play against others- and we try to be humble about it. James also smoked Garrett in basketball shooting (92 to 78)... He is pretty much amazing at any sport..lol. Garrett even tried a couple times to beat the score- by a couple I mean at least ten times. After that Ashley, her cousin Megan, and Ben joined the four of us over at our house to play Cranium- my favorite game. The girls won and it was hilarious to watch everyone act out and try to get their team mates to guess... it was just a lot of fun.
