anniversary

Well we had a wonderful anniversary! we had our candle light dinner on thursday night! it was fun! Then on friday we went up to park city! We went to a few of the outlet stores and got our kids their easter outfitsthey are very cute and they match so i think it will be fun! then we went down historic main street! We felt very out of place because of all the rich people! further up main street were some very cool colorful houses! some of them were for sale so we got a flyer for one of them it was $1.7 million!!! we thought it would be cool if we inherit one of those houses but there is no way we would ever spend that much on a house! that's crazy! after we got back we learned that that was the street that my grandma meldrum was born on! After we went to park city we went to heber city just because! All we did there was drive down main street! It reminded me of Spanish Fork! Then we headed back to salt lake area and we were going to go bowling butthe bowling alley we went to was full and there was a 45 minute to an hour wait! So we went to hollywood connections and went miniature golfing instead! it was a lot of fun but i don't think were very good! Our balls kept getting off the course and we nbever got a hole in one! then we went to a restraunt called mimi's cafe it's really cute it's by fashion place mall! We really liked our dinner Then after that we went to murray park and walked around for a little while! but right now brett is reading a scary book and so he was afraid to be in the park so we didn't stay very long and it was kind of cold! After that we made our way home! At maceys and wal-mart they were both having twilight parties so we decided to see what was going on and we wanted to see if we could rent twilight at midnight from the redbox really we would have tested it with any movie just twilight was the one we had the opportunity to try it with! And it worked so if you ever want to rent a brand new movie and it is being relesed at midnight you can get it from the redbox! And we wern't the only ones we saw someone else with one! Then when we got home we actually stayed up and watched it i still don't know why we thought that was a good idea! but we didn't get to bed until around 3:00 that was just crazy! anyways as far as twilight goes i thought it was an okay movie so my question is what in the world is all the fuss about because it wasn't as good to me and brett as everyone made it out to be! i'm not saying it wasn't good it just wasn't the movie of the century like everyone is making it out to be!!! Well then saturday we didn't do anything! We just pretty much slept! here are some pics and that's about all!

our new car talks to us = )

i am so excited we finally got our new car i took us quite a while but now we don't have to worry about it any more!!! We got a chevy malibu it is kind of a grayish blueish color and sometimes it looks a little greenish it just depends on the lighting! We really like it! We get on star free for the first year so it is very fun to play with! it will give us turn by turn directions to pretty much anywhere we want to go and it sends us e-mails telling us when we need an oil change and how much air is in our tires and if there is anything else wrong with it! it tells us how many mpg we get on average and at any sepcific instance! and it tells us the name of the artist and song that is playing on the radio! We also get xm satillite radio for 90 days! and the windo locks only lock the back windows! And all this is the standard features crazy huh! We also have a car phone! it is connected to onstar and it is basically just a prepaid phone but if we had verizon we would be able to connect it to is somehow and use the verizon plan minutes but we don't have a cell phone so basically we just have a prepaid phone and we can add minustes from the car if we need to!!! It is such a huge relief that we don't have to deal with car problems anymore! It was kind of disappointing that we had to get a new car because we were really looking forward to being out of debt! But we have a plan to get this car paid off as quickly as possible! So hopefully we are able to be debt free soon! Really this car payment is the only thing we have so i guess that we are not in too bad of shape as far as being in debt but hopefully our plan goes smoothly this time and we can be completely out of debt in a few years! Although we didn't really plan to buy a car at this time we are really happy with the one we got and think it will last us longer!
