A new Adventure!!

I am not the type of person that wears my feelings on my sleeve-so to speak. I don't usually shed tears over to many things in life(well openly!) and yet it is 4:00 in the morning, and i can't sleep because my emotions are FINALLY getting the better side of me. Last night we got to go to dinner with some of our BEST FRIENDS the BRAMMIES as we call them!!
Going to dinner isn't the part that is bringing tears to my eyes, it is the fact that they are going to be moving to NEW YORK next week and my mind has been flooding with so many GREAT memories we have had with them over the last 6 years!!! There are MANY...........




Dave and Tyler enjoyed doing the spider on the swing!! it was hilarious!!
We got to go the New Jersey with them and spend the week at the beach .It was one of our favorite vacations ever!

Ali Loves the BRAMMIES!! She wouldn't go to anyone other than Dave or Tracie- That says a lot.







We have spent hours riding our bikes. It
has been one of our favorite things to do with these guys. Tracie endured Squaw Peak as her
very first ride, and she has been awesome
to always come be the other girl rider with me!
















No matter what we do
with them, it is ALWAYS a great time!! Except when Dave sat on that Cactus Bush in St. George and couldn't sit on his butt the whole way home!! That was funny though- !!




Dave and Tracie are some of the funnest people you will ever meet. Instantly you are taken back by Daves insane amount of energy and craziness. And Tracie just takes you in as a best friend and you love both of them instantly!! Well that is how it was for us!!!









I have so many great memories from endless hours of the Marble game to paintball, biking, swimming, playing co-ed soccer, volleyball nights, tennis attempts, movies, rock climbing, inventing the first full length slip and slide. The list goes and goes. We have done so much together it is amazing. They are the type of people who will try anything with you, and always make it exciting!




Some of my favorite memories with Dave and Tracie are the simple yet always fun nights of just chillin'!! It has become a well known fact that Dave and I are the greatest "friendly banterers" ever. We can talk smack like the best of them, and I will miss that emensly- and so will Fro. Ali is the type of girl that doesn't open up easily to anyone. Dave and Tracie were the first people that she would even talk to , and she really loves the Brammies and will miss both of them tons!




Dave went with Fro to Canada this last September, and
Fro LOVED having Dave and his non-stop humor there.
Hopefully it will become a yearly tradition for these guys.
And me and Tracie will get our own girls trip!!
Our bowling league- and the Winners trophy that me and Tracie both were winners of!! Tracie is always fun to compete against- she is almost better than me at Everything!!


Bramhalls we love you guys, and are so sad to see you officially leave.
The only thing that makes me feel a little better about this
is I know you have to come back since most of Tracies family is here.
We couldn't have asked for better friends to hang out
with, to help raise Ali with, and to have the greatest memories
of this time in our lives. You guys are the best-
Thanks for all the Insane fun, laughs, and memories!

WOW...Kristen you are way to nice!!
And I thought we agreed that the spider swing photos would never grace the world wide web!!
Anyways...all the feelings are mutual and leaving great friends is by far the hardest part for us...well for Tracie I guess her family too. But you guys are family and as such we will never lose contact!! Promise!!
