Remember the days that Britney Spears was the shiz?

I was hanging out at my parents house one day last week, and I caught my Mom humming "Lucky" by Britney Spears. It brought back so many memories. Like when Britney Spears was the shiz.

It is worth a trip down memory lane.

While watching this Music Video, a lot of memories came back.
1. Jamie and I used to Karaoke to her songs in our basement all the time. We would take turns and pretend we were Britney Biatch
2. I may or may not have dressed up like Britney Spears for Halloween one year. Yes, I was the school girl Britney, and yes, I looked gooooood.
3. The Britney Glee has been my favorite episode so far.
4. Jamie, Jenny, and I used to rent her playstation game where it played all her songs. It was kind of like Dance Dance Revolution, but for your fingers.
4. And yes....Jason and I are kind of obsessed with her new song "I Wanna Go".

So I guess I still think Britney is the shiz...even if she is a crazy.

1 Year Anniversary...EEEYYYOOO







Yesiree...1 year ago (well I am writing this a little late), but on June 30th of last year, Jas and I were married in the beautiful Salt Lake Temple. It was the best day of our lives. I cannot believe it has been one year! Over this year, Jason and I have learned a lot about each other. I have learned that:

1. Jason loves loves Hamburgers. Any day he has a delicious hamburger, it's a good day.
2. He snores when he sleeps on his back. Whenever this is happening, I just roll him over, and the horrid snoring stops.
3. He is an amazing cook. Because I don't get home from work sometimes until 5:30 or 6, Jason has started cooking. His specialties are: BBQ Ribs, Sweet and Tangy Chicken, Yummy tacos, 3 Cheese Pasta, Toasted Tuna Sandwiches, etc... I am so grateful when I am starving my butt off, to come home to an amazing cooked meal.
4. He is any girl's Diets worst nightmare. This can be a good or bad thing. When I am craving something horrible(like some super unhealthy ice cream, or in and out burger) he says "Oh yeah, that sounds amazing, let's go get it right now!" He needs to say "Em, we are trying to eat healthy!"
5. He gives the best back massages ever. I don't even have to ask him, and he will just sense when I am in need of a de-stressing back massage. He draws on my back until I fall asleep.
6. He takes care of me better than anyone. When you are married and get the flu, you usually miss your Mom and how she used to take care of you. I still miss my Mom, but Jason does such a great job. He puts me in bed, makes me soup, rents me movies, warms me up cornbags (even though he DESPISES the smell), and just waits on me hand and foot. I'm so grateful for that.
7. He has the best smile and laugh. Whenever he is laughing hard, it makes me laugh (even if he is laughing at something I did)
8. He has an amazing voice. Whenever I come home and Jason is just playing the guitar and singing, I love it. Especially when he writes songs about me.
9. Jason loves Thai Food, Sushi, and Fro Yo...3 of my favorite things!
10. He loves watching & playing soccer. Who woulda thought? I didn't even try to convert him, it was just a natural thing, and I love it!
11. He is the best husband, and best friend a girl could ask for. I'm so grateful that I went to Lake Powell and met this amazing guy.

To celebrate our anniversary, we first of all played and won our soccer game. We play in a league with my family and love every minute of it. Then we came home, showered really fast and went to The Crab Shack. I had heard amazing things about this place, and we had been wanting to try it.

We ordered their famous Crab Steam Pot. It came with tons of crab legs, potatoes, sausages, corn on the cob, and shrimp in a huge steamy bowl of goodness!

We conquered that Biatch.

The Crab Shack atmosphere was so fun! We loved putting on the bibs and cracking away at the crab legs. I am not the best cracker, but the delicious crab is worth on the crackin'...even though I am pretty sure I got some cuts in the process.













Crab Shack was so delicious and fun. When we got home, at midnight mind you, we had to eat a slice of our wedding cake.





It was such a great night, and we have had the best year together. Jas...I am so grateful for this wonderful year that we have experienced together, and can't wait for many more to come. Love you babe.

Jason's 23rd Birthday

Happy b-day to you, Happy b-day to you, Happy b-day dearest Jasy, Happy b-day to you. It was so fun to celebrate Jason's birthday, even though I am writing about it a little late. July has flown by so fast, and it freaks me out. Seriously, is Summer almost over? I think we were cheated out of Summer a little bit because it was cold for so long, and now I am not ready for it to be over!

Anyways, Jason's b-day was on June 27th. We met his family for lunch at Little America and then got some amazingly tasty thai food at Sawadee. My favorite thing about that place is their Massaman Curry...seriously delicious. AND...the fact that the food comes out in 5 minutes and 23 seconds (I timed it). Jason's favorite part is their fried banana dessert. When it is your b-day, they come out with bongo drums, sing Happy Birthday to you about 50 times, and then give you your delicious fried banana dessert. It was such a fun night.



Happy b-day babe. I love you so much. I am excited that we get to spend every b-day together now and down the road, even when we are 87.
