Wyoming Trip. Can You Say Yeeehaw?

Here are more pictures from our trip to Wyoming last month.

The men's daily activity, playing video games in 3D.

GQ-ing it

It was always 70 degrees inside my sister and her husband's house which was understandable assuming that since she just gave birth, Kristine's body temperature was still boiling hot. And this was Wyatt's idea of keeping himself warm. I don't like it when he's laying on my laptop because he sheds a lot leaving gazillions of hair on the keyboard. But the entire time that we were in Wyoming we had to keep Wyatt inside one of the rooms, away from Harvey, because they would never get along. I felt bad for Wyatt that he was stuck inside the room while the rest were having fun, so I just let him do this.

And this is Wyatt's least favorite "housemate", my sister's dog, Harvey. Harvey who stained the carpet of our old apartment with his pee. Harvey who scratched our old aparment walls until some of the paint came off. Harvey who you better not leave in the house by himself or a cop will knock on your door because a neighbor complained of his non-stop barking and crying. Harvey, who despite all that, still melts my heart when he looks at me like this.

We had Christmas dinner at my brother-in-law's parents' house with the missionaries. Since both my husband and brother-in-law went on a mission, they had plenty to talk about with these men. After dinner they spent the rest of the evening playing cards.

Wright doesn't have McDonald's, Burger King, Olive Garden, etc. They have Subway and this restaurant (I forgot the name). So this place is the fancy place to eat in town. We ate here on our last night in Wright and there were only 4 customers. Me, Brandon, Justan, and Kristine. Haha. But I tell you, I'd pick this restaurant over the Cheese Cake Factory in Salt Lake City any day.

The food was t-t-t-tasty! tasty!

I don't know about you but I had never seen on a menu a steak as big as 32 oz. Must be very good because Justan ordered it.

Everytime I look at this pic, I feel like the moose is staring back at me. Don't you?

It was time to go back to Salt Lake the next day. :(

We just barely left Wright when we saw deers on the left side of the road as we were driving. There were like 10 of them but these 2 were running up and down the hill, one chasing the other. So I grabbed my camera and was lucky enough to snap a pic of these deers. If I lived in a small country town like Wright, I'd probably be chasing deers everyday to take pictures of them. :D

My Newly Reconstructed Blog, and an Old Blog I found

My blog is now finally back for public viewing. To those who tried to visit this blog and got a message that said: "This blog is open to invited readers only", that was because my blog was "under reconstruction". Please read the previous post.

So here it is folks! The new look and the new address. You like? I love how clean it looks now. I especially love the header. I know it's nothing special but I made it and I like how it turned out considering that I have next to zero knowledge in graphic design. Now, I just have to change the pictures on the side bar and my profile picture because they're pretty old. As for the new blog address, I wanted to combine my name and Brandon's but the brandonandlaura address is already taken, so is brandon-laura. I was a little surprised to know that there's are least 2 other couples out there whose names are Brandon and Laura. And guess what I found when I typed brandonlaura.blogspot.com to see if somebody already owned it? Our super old blog! It's almost 5 years old and haven't been updated that both me and Brandon literally forgot that we had a blog together. Brandon made it when we were only engaged and back then I had no idea what a blog was. I love how reading that blog brings back sweet memories, and it motivates me to be more active in blogosphere.

So LBCarree.blogspot.com it is! Why it works? Because not only LB stands for Laura [and] Brandon, it's also the initials of my maiden name.

Changes

Happy New Year to you! (yes you, my reader :P) I hope you had a wonderful 2010. New Year resolutions taped somewhere in the house? Ha. I remember when December 2008 was about to come to it's end, Brandon and I wrote down our goals for 2009. We like to write down goals instead of resolutions although they're pretty much the same. I taped my list on our bedroom wall and Brandon taped his on the side of his computer monitor.

Speaking of goals, I'll try to update this blog more often this year. Maybe at least once a week? So wish me luck. Also, I'll make the following changes to my blog:

-Overall blog look. I'll make it more simple and more clean-looking. If I haven't mentioned it yet, I'm a minimalist. So less is always more for me. Always.

-Blog address. I didn't wanna do this but I'll be using the address of this blog for my photo blog. So I have to think of some new address. And maybe change the blog title too. Suggestions?

What are your goals and planned changes for this year?
