Update.

It has been a busy last few months...thats for sure!

Bradley & I have, since my last post, finished another semester (Winter) and are getting closer to wrapping up another semester. 

Here are a few special things we have done since my last post:

My sweet husband surprised me with a fun SURPRISE Valentine's weekend to SLC. We stayed at a super nice hotel and had so much fun shopping, eating at CPK(bradley's favorite) and just being together. Here are a few pics from that night.





In March, we were able to have a fun cousin "retreat". A few of Bradley's cousins on the Bryson side and us were able to go down to St. George, Utah to spend the weekend. I had never been to St. George before, and after this trip it definitely will not be the last time we go!

We were able to see Brigham Young's home in St. George. This picture is right beside it!


We also went to the temple! We were all ready to go do baptisms inside, but there was a pretty large ward already attending, so we just decided to visit the visitor's center and explore the beautiful grounds. This temple quickly became one of my favorites!


This is at Snow Canyon. We decided to hike along the canyon trails, which everyone BUT Bradley did. Bradley found it more fun to jump from rock to rock to get to where he wanted to be...scared me half to death that he was going to fall!


The girlies!



This year was the first year I was able to attend the annual Bryson family reunion at CAMELBACK. During this weekend, this whole side of the family gets together in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was such a fun weekend full of fun cousin "dates", pool days and just being all together enjoying each other's company. This is definitely something I hope to get to do EVERY year.

Fun by the pool!




One night during the weekend, the family meets at the cutest train park to have a catered dinner. Here we are at the train park!



Since Bradley's birthday is right after Camelback, we celebrated with the whole family by going out to dinner to CPK!


YUMMY.




Cutest birthday boy I ever did see.


We LOVE Ava!


We have the greatest family!



While at Camelback my amazing sis-in-law Ashley took some amazing family pictures. Thanks Ash!




 It was my first time going to Arizona, and I absolutely LOVED it! Arizona is so beautiful. I love the fun landscaping and warm weather. I definitely wouldn't mind living here someday...


I think that pretty much sums up Bradley & I's last few months. We are so blessed to have such amazing families to take us to do such fun things.


This was taken at Bradley & I's last date night. We are proud to say we have had a date night EVERY week for the last 2 years...and we don't plan on ever changing that occurrence!

Until next time,

Christmas Break in Carolina

Bradley and I had such an awesome Christmas and New Years! We were able to go to NC to spend it with my family, we even got to bring Lucy. It was so nice spending time with everyone and Lucy loved the constant attention everyone gave to her. I miss them so much already, and we've only been home for 2 days!


Poor Lucy was drugged up the whole flight there. 

We wanted to make this flight the least painful for her...and us!


We were able to Skype with Jordan on Christmas day! 

It was so good to see him, we miss him so much!


While in Carolina we were able to travel to the Outer Banks so Bradley could experience all of North Carolina.

 North Carolina's lighthouses are so amazing!



After we got back from the Outer Banks, we all headed down to Savannah, GA. Savannah was such a beautiful city and we were able to learn so much of our country's history while there. During the day, we went on a trolley tour of the city and walked the river walk and then that night, we went on a spooky ghost tour. It was creepy learning about all of the crazy murders and suicides, and then actually standing in the place it actually happened so many years ago.






New Years was so fun. 

Daniel and Dorey had some of their friends over and we all ate way too much and played UNO. 

The best part was I was able to have my second New Year's kiss with Bradley!




Spending the holidays was so great, mainly because I was able to spend my first Christmas with the hubby. He is such an amazing person and I am beyond excited to spend the rest of forever with him by my side. I love you babe!

Finals Week

Okay, it has been way too long since I have updated!

So Christmas is right around the corner and I can't wait to head back to Carolina for the holidays. Bradley and I currently have ONE more final, then this Sunday we fly with our little Lucille to NC. It will be interesting since we have never flown with a pet before. We got her some sedation pills, which will hopefully make this experience more enjoyable for all of us. This is what I came home to the other day. I believe it is safe to say Lucy is excited for Christmas!


One thing I wish was that our families lived closer! It would be so fun to get to do things with both of them for the holidays. Something Bradley and I decided to do was switch off every year. So this year we were supposed to do Thanksgiving with the Websters and then we are doing Christmas with the Brocks. Instead of getting to go to California to be with the Websters, Bradley had to work due to his new plasma center job, we did a quick Utah trip. It was so much fun to be with aunts and uncles for Thanksgiving! I also was able to meet a couple more cousins! For Black Friday we were able to go shopping with Aunt Jane, Hayley and Cammie, which was so much FUN! I'd say it was a pretty grand Thanksgiving!

As far as an update on the jobs: Bradley is no longer working at the mall in IF and is doing amazing during his phlebotomy training. The day after we arrive to NC, he will be a certified Phlebotomist! I am beyond proud of him and his hard work.
I actually have a new job as well! I am now working on campus in the Scroll advertising department. I absolutely LOVE this new job! I love the people I get to work with and the things I get to do. I'd say Bradley and I both got very lucky to have the great college jobs we have now.

Well, Bradley is about to get home from work and dinner isn't going to make itself. I will post after the holidays to update on how things go! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

love,

I'm a blogger!

I am officially blogging! This is so exciting! A little about myself; I am 21 and currently attending BYU- Idaho with my sweet hubs, Bradley. We are both scheduled to graduate Fall of 2014 (in ONE YEAR).

I am from Fayetteville, North Carolina where I lived at our family lake house in the summer times. Between White Lake and the beach, I'm pretty much in heaven.

 Bradley and I just got married this past July 31st in the Raleigh, NC temple. It was the best week ever having the Webster and Brock families together at the lake house and beach to celebrate our special day. Just a short recap of the crazy week: Bradley and I drove from Rexburg, ID to Fayetteville, NC with Blake, 3 LONG days of driving. After we arrived in NC, everyone began to fly in the following Monday and Tuesday. We were sealed for time and all eternity on that Wednesday. After the wedding we all went back to my Grandmother Brock's home to have a family luncheon before Bradley and I took off to stay a couple nights at our Myrtle Beach condos. We were at the condos that Wednesday and Thursday night, then had to be back that Friday for the reception. The reception was BEAUTIFUL to say the least. My mother did a fabulous job planning and putting it all together. It was a reception any girl would dream to have. That last weekend everyone was in town we spent time at the lake house and then going down to Myrtle Beach to the Grande Dunes resort. The next month everyone was able to get together again for our Colorado reception. We all had so much fun at the GORGEOUS reception Lisa planned. It was amazing! We all then went to Breckenridge and rode on the alpine slides and shopped at all the fun shops downtown. I look forward to having our families together again someday... hopefully sooner than later.



Here are a few shots from our NC reception.


 And, our CO reception.


I am one lucky girl.


Right now, Bradley is working two jobs. He works at the mall in Idaho Falls at the "Kopter Krazy" stand and just started at Grifol's Plasma Center, training as a Phlebotomist. I believe he secretly loves his helicopter job because he keeps signing up for days to work when he is already busy with the plasma center job. I mean who wouldn't love flying helicopters for work all day... but today should be his last day, thank goodness.

I am currently working at our local Allstate agency doing customer service/outbound sales calling. I am just excited for the day I don't have to worry about work/school and can just focus on being a mommy. It's really been my "dream job" for forever.

Also, Bradley and I just recently adopted a little kitty named Lucy. She has been such a joy to have in our home and we love her so much.



I think that sums up our lives for right now! I am so excited to begin my blog and journal Bradley and I's life together. It is so great.

Love, Kelsey
