Valentine's Day

We really never "celebrate" Valentine's Day because, well, it's not really a holiday. Haha. But this year we "celebrated" by having our good friends Kim, Justin, Katie and Jo over! We ate a super yummy spaghetti dinner with, garlic bread and salad. We drank Martinelli's and had really good cake (made by Kim) for dessert! We played all kinds of silly games and just hung out. It was a super fun Valentine's Day, filled with lots o' love!

Bobby and Jo got a little crazy wrestling...



I made everyone take pictures. Haha,this is the most normal one...


This was my goofy idea to all mix up, we look so funny with the wrong persons. HAHA!



This is us all smooching!

Evan's Birthday Weekend!


On January 17, Evan, my baby brother turned 19! It was an absolutely fabulous weekend! Not only were we celebrating his birthday, but he also went through the Temple for the first time and give his "farewell" talk! Emily, Matt, Sarah and Andrew as well as Grandma Davis were here to join in on all the fun! Of course Elliot, Kelly, Ellie, Scot and Macie were there too. It was so much fun to be surrounded by family for an entire weekend! I am so proud of Evan, he is one of my best friends and I couldn't be happier with the decision he has made to serve a mission! He is the best younger brother! (We missed you Ellen)





The kids call Bobby their "Silly Uncle". Haha!!

Macie after the birthday cake... haha. She is so adorable!

Christmas Time! (2008)

Welp, Christmas has come and gone AGAIN! It was a ton of fun and we enjoyed the time we spent with our families. We had dinner Christmas Eve at Grandma Shirley's and then read The Best Christmas Pageant Ever at the Davis'. We spent Christmas morning with the Davis family which included gifts and a delicious breakfast made by Dad(or Big Wayne as Bobby likes to call him.) Then we headed over to the Green's, which is literally around the corner. We did our annual family gift exchange game, played Guitar Hero World Tour and this fun game called Blockus. We ate French Dip for dinner, which was absolutely delicious!





The morning after Christmas, we packed up our Jeep and headed off to Utah to visit Bobby's grandparents and aunts and uncles. We caravaned with Bobby's parents, his brother Bill and his family and his sister Kelly and her family. We were quite the caravan, it was 3 white Jeeps and a white Minivan! We made our first stop in Reno, NV at Cabela's after quite the excursion through the Sierra's. We arrived safely in Utah and had a great time playing in the snow and enjoying time with extended family that we don't get to see very often. It was a ton of fun but we swore we-d never return to Utah in the winter again! But promised Grandma Green we'd come back in the summer time. We also went to Cabela's in Lehi, UT, which was way bigger and better than Reno. That store is so fun just to walk around in! It's like a free museum!

Turkey Day




For Thanksgiving Bobby and I went to Grandma Shirley's and had a DELICIOUS dinner! At any meal with a roll involved, Bobby will make himself a sandwich out of the food. Its really funny to watch him build and eat it. We had a really nice time with the family. Afterwords, we went to my parents house and played a game of Speed Scrabble. Which is different from regular Scrabble, there is no board and you use 2 or 3 sets of letters, you want to have the lowest score to win. We played to 100 and somehow mom managed to win with a score of only 7 points! I lost with 109 points... Haha. It was a great Turkey Day!

Twilight Movie



My mom and I went and saw Twilight today! The movie was good but no where near as good as the book! We were the first ones in the theater (we only got there an hour early...
)Haha. Bobby said that getting there that early qualifies us as nerds, but I figure we already are considering we waited 2 hours for the fourth book to come out at midnight. We had a good time and enjoyed the movie!
My Mom's review = C+
My review = B

Happy Halloween!

I finally decided that it was time for a Liz and Bobby blog! I love all the blogs I normally read by family and friends and want to be able to share all the things Bobby and I do. Not that we have amazingly exciting lives or anything, but I want to be fun and share like everyone else! Haha. So I'm starting with our fun Halloween!

To start off celebrating the Halloween Holiday Justin, Kim, Bobby and I went to a GIGANTIC Corn Maze. We went on a Friday evening because the thrill of getting lost in the dark was so enticing. Ha. First problem, we didn't bring flash lights. Second problem, me, being the genius that I am, decided we didn't need a map of the maze. Well, shortly after entering the 40 acre maze we were confused and didn't know where we were supposed to go. We asked someone where we should be heading and the first thing they said was, "Where is your map?" We told them we had no map and they replied with, "Well, don't plan on getting out of here without one." Luckily someone let us have a spare map and then we were fortunate enough to have the assistance of a recently trained military dude to follow and guide us to the end. It was fun, but definitely not something I'd want to do again.

The week before Halloween my friend Kim and I had a ton of fun decorating the house's front porch. It started with carving pumpkins, which neither of us had done in years, but I quickly remembered how much I dislike the inside of pumpkins. Its sooo GROSS and MESSY, not to mention smelly! But Kim and I had a great time carving them. I had gotten my pumpkin carving idea from a book my mom has, it was a skeleton snow man type deal! It was by far the BEST idea I'd ever seen for a pumpkin carving! It turned out so CUTE and I got a ton of compliments from Trick-or-Treaters! Our porch was decked out with cobb webs and lights! It was really fun to do because it was the first time I've really decorated for any holiday at our house besides Christmas lights.

Halloween night we invited Kim, Justin, Katie and Jo over to play games! We all sort of dressed up... Katie and Justin had the best costumes by far, Katie was Alice from the Twilight Book series, she looked amazing with gold contacts in her eyes and all! Justin was Clark Kent which was super fun as well! Kim was a Cowgirl, I was a Paris Hilton(at least I kind of tried to be) and Bobby was Mitch Richmond (a former, like WAY former, Sacramento Kings player). Unfortunately, Jo could not make it over because of work. We had a ton of fun playing Balderdash and eating lots of candy!
