Prescott

BENTLEE!!!!

So Brian and I spent this weekend in Prescott! We had a lot of fun, considering the last time we went up was around John's farwell, which was around June!! We visited with Brian's family and got to see Bentlee. She is super cute, I mean these pictures don't do any justice! Well, we loved spending time with her and seeing Laura and Joseph and helping them get their new place together. (I have to say it is huge! And I know it will turn out beautifully!) We also hung out with some of our favorite people from Hawaii, Jared and Anepo!! We played shuffleboard and then afterwards went to play cards with Laura and Joseph. It was a great weekend and we had so much fun...it was hard going back to school... I just can't wait until I am done!

she has this nazi sign she does....

So, do you remember my older post, when my computer crashed and deleted all my pictures including the ones of our Mortenson family cruise around Hawaii ? Well, Brian found some he took and I am just excited we have something left! So here are those pictures from December/January.

Jared & Anepo

at the PCC, before the night show

this guy was awesome haha! Best Samoan ever!!! (kirsten, he kind of reminds me of Mark for some crazy reason hahah)

Oh, September.

Well, school has begun and a lot has happened:

Brian and I went to Disneyland with his family over Labor Day weekend!!!! :)

hahaha, i had to share my score :) haha

What else? Well I turned 22! Yikes! haha



Brian bought me this Kelty backpack... we have future plans to use it.. this summer backpacking through Europe. I am soooo excited!

Chantelle and Zack got married :)

Vanessa had her bridal shower!

Well... on top of all this fun, I was bound to get sick right? Well I am unhappy to announce this is my 3rd week sick! Yeah, after some long nights without sleep, constant mucus and one trip to the hospital I can honestly say I am feeling "somewhat" better. September was rough. I hope October is better.

Back to the routine

Yes people, school is now officially in session!!

Welp to sum up the end of the summer... Brian took his DAT test Friday, he did well with an above average score!!! All we can do now is anxiously wait for results, which should come sometime around December. After taking his test, which was in Phoenix, Brian and I decided to celebrate...I guess you could say, but going back to the place we first partied as newly weds!!

So since we had our wedding reception at the Renaissance at Glendale, we got some nice perks to get us back there! So they gave us a free weekend in a huge suite and breakfast. It was such a fun time to be back there and just relax.

Definitely brought back a LOT of memories :)

Well, somehow earlier in the week, I found U of A's biggest fan!! It is so true, and it just so happens to be my little Brian Bear, haha. Check it out for yourself!

What really happened, was he entered a contest to win like $500 at Champs or Footlocker or something like that to show you are U of A's biggest fan! haha. So we found some car paint (which we used to decorate Liz's car when she got married) and I found a pom-pom I got from a basketball game and Brian had the rest. Well, what do you think? Is it U of A's biggest fan??

We also went to a Quinceanera for a girl in our branch, it is when a "young woman" turns 15, anyways, it is like a sweet 16 but at 16 instead. It's latin tradition. Here is Myra, isn't she cute?

So looking at my school schedule I think Brian and I are going to be so busy this semester, with work, school and church. Anyway, it dawned on me today, not one of my classes are in English! I think am going crazy, I forgot how to speak Italian, so I speak Spanish in Italian and in Portuguese class I speak Italian, the only classes I am sane in are my Spanish classes. I don't know what I will do! Brian is starting work next week as a tutor and is taking lots of classes in hopes to graduate sooner, we will see.
