High School Sweethearts



 On December 19th just this last Sunday, was Griff and Mines 7 Year Anniversary!!!!

We started Dating our Sophomore year on December 19th 2003! We went to the Movie 'Stuck on You' and he held my hand. I had no cash on me to pay for the movie so you guessed it, I had a baggie of Change haha!! So Griff paid for me to get in even though I told him "No No No!!" I thought if my parents found out a boy paid for my movie at age 15 they would get mad thinking I was on a date... Well he wouldn't take my baggie of change so I guess it kinda was a date since we held hands!!
We were on our Winter Brake from school so we ended up hanging out just about every night for the few weeks we had off. About 4 days after the movie we had our first kiss.. Then we asked each other "What are we?" and decided to be together!!
When we got back to school we were inseparable!! We hung out after school, in between classes, at lunch and before school!! I loved every minute of it! Not only did we hang out at school we worked together at Classic Skating. As the years went on we ended up getting more then half our classes together!! It was so much fun, all the teachers new us as a package deal. Griff and I asked each
other to every dance it was the best thing ever!!
We have had some Difficult times that have made us work really hard but has made us so much stronger in the end!! Everything happens for a reason Right?!!
I love my High School Sweetheart!!!

Wendover..

 Griffin, Luke and I went to Wendover Last Wed. for a Poker Tourney that Griff was really wanting to
Play in...When we got there you had to be signed up
for it by 7pm because that was when it started. Griff got signed up but was an
Alt.. Because there was SO many people who wanted to play, If you were an Alt you got to play
once one of the guys already in the Tourney got out. Griff was #56.... He was super Bummed, BUT
they gave him a free Buffet Coupon. So Luke and I signed up just to get the Free Buffet haha
 Kicking some Trash with his Pro Skills!!
 After we played some games. (griff was about 80th out of 300 in the tourney... He played so good) We played all the other games and did really well... Then headed up to our room so hit the sack it was about 2am and we were beat!

 Luke made 1 cent :D
 Woooo We turned $20 into $175 :D!!!

 We stayed at the Nugget it was really nice and decorated up so cute for Christmas!!
 Such a fun get away!

Extra Space

Christmas Party at Zoo Lights!
 Griffins work put on a Fabulous Dinner! When I say Fabulous I mean it. They had Steak Pretty sure around 14oz, Yummy Potatoes, Veggies, oh and Home Made Ice Cream with a Delicious Brownie!!! His Boss had all the Team Leads stand up and say a few words about their team, once they were done he had Griff stand and Paid him a Compliment for being a great teacher for the new employees!! Griff is so good at what he does.
 When we were full and the dinner party was over we walked around the Zoo to look at all the
Fun lights!! They did a great job it looked amazing.
While walking around we didn't see to many animals out... We were hoping to see more. Really the only animal out were the Tigers... oh this sign was the Highlight of our night haha!! 
 The Killer Tiger.. the music was coming out of this big box and we all are pretty sure the Tiger was not a fan of it!! Yeah he was pretty scary looking...
 We had a blast :D Just glad that we didn't have to pay to get in!
The lights were amazing Thank you Extra Space.
 Love, The
Blands

SportClips

Chritmas Party!! 

 Meet my Owner!! It was a 50, 60, 70s Dress up &....
 Poker Night. Sportclips always has a Christmas Party, Usually with just the location you work at. This year my owner, Duke, wanted to get all the locations together. So we all put our thinking caps on to hopefully come up with a FUN Party idea. So at one of our meeting Duke tells us he thought up a Poker Night!! He wanted something that the Hubsand would enjoy too!! Oh boy did the Husband enjoy themselfs. Griff was in Heaven. For every $200 in poker chips you got a rafel ticket, then you put your tickets in a rafel for the gifts you wanted to win. They had X-Box Kinect, Kindel, DVD Players, Blue Ray Players, Skull Candy Head Phones, and much more... To bad we didn't get to take any of these fun prizes home. Griff and I had tons of Tickets but it just was not our Lucky Night!! We had a blast Gambling for tickets not money!
