Our nice, long weekend kicked off on Thursday night at the season home opener for the UTES!! It seriously has to be my most favorite day of the whole year!! (Minus my birthday and Christmas of course!) I've been counting down the days for MONTHS now! I even convinced my little cougar to come to the game with me. I was sooo excited with how the game started and pretty much it was all down hill from there. My team has lot's to improve on but I'm hopeful for at least an 8-4 season. (The performance of BYU on Saturday definitely made me feel MUCH better though!) As far as I'm concerned the most impressive Utah team this week was the one who lost. (Utah State almost had the W over Auburn... we were on the edge of our seats cheering them on!) Dang. I was SO excited though to see this girl show up at the game Thursday night!!
I absolutely LOVE Football season.. it's my favorite time of year!! So fun to have some of Codys family there every game and also my dads whole side of the family there too! Grandparents, aunts & uncles, cousins and some of my siblings! SO FUN :)************************
Friday morning I got to meet up with my friend Kensley for breakfast at Jeremiahs and shopping afterwards. We always have a good time together, never fails! Afterwards I took my baby brother Tanner to Olive Garden for his birthday lunch. I can't believe he's 17.. love you buddy!Friday night Cody and I just got to have a movie night and chilled in our pj's (our favorite thing to do on the weekends)! Saturday morning my girlfriends Sara and Kens came over to our house to chit chat and hang out for a bit before we headed over to an old friends bridal shower. We seriously can lose all track of time when we're together catching up! We could (and did) talk for hours. We made a quick trip over to the shower and then it was back to my house for more talking and catching up. Thank you girls, I love you both SO much!!

My favorite part of this awesome weekend though was going down to Salt Lake Saturday afternoon with my sweetheart to FINALLY celebrate our 5 year anniversary that was a couple weeks ago on August 18th. We stayed at the Grand America hotel and Cody watched the BYU game while I took a nap and he woke me up with just a few mins left in the game so I could clean up for our night out on the town. (Funny story... When I realized what a close game the BYU game was me, being the awesome wife that I am was screaming and cheering for Ole Miss.. I was just loving that fact that BYU played like they did and I couldn't get enough of almost watching them lose. Ha ha! Well... our neighbors thought we were being a bit loud so we were kindly asked to turn it down a bit. Ooops!) Once the game was over and we were all cleaned up, we picked up our car from Valet and headed over to the Gateway for some shopping! We didn't get each other anything for our actual anniversary so we spoiled each other at the mall!

Had to get a carameled apple from Rocky Mountain chocolate factory, sooo yummy!
After shopping we went over to Trolley Square for dinner at Rodizio Grill. Not my favorite place but Cody loves it! He even tried some chicken hearts... ewww. Dinner was so fun and I'm so glad we got to enjoy an evening out together to celebrate! I love you Cody, I'm thankful everyday I get to be with you forever. Sunday morning we got up and had a very nice brunch at the Grand America. If any of you have had their Sunday brunch you know just how NICE it is. That hotel is beautiful and super fancy! We loved everything about our stay there. *********************************
Sunday we had family bbq's with both sides of our families and enjoyed swimming, great food and even better company! We both had Monday off so Cody went out dove hunting with his buddy and I got to finally get out all my FALL decorations! My favorite season ever. I even used my Tai Pan coupon and got some fun, new stuff too! Yay for new stuff :) I went to lunch with my sis before she left and finished the day at home with Cody just hanging out. It was a perfect weekend and I'm SO excited for the Fall/football season and all the fun festivities up ahead!
