Broderick Family: January 2009

Brian Head, UT

We decided to take a little road trip up to Utah last weekend. Ryan nor I had really never been to Utah so, we thought a nice little ski trip would be fun for Ry while Ava and I could get some fresh mountain air. It only took us about 3 hours to get all the way up to the condo we rented. When we arrived we were shocked at how absolutely gorgeous it is up there!

Here is where the story takes a turn...We unpacked the truck and got our things situated and Ryan says to me,"I'm not feeling good. I feel really weak after climbing those stairs with the luggage." I say, "OK, take a nap and then later we'll all go outside and play in the snow." Long story short Ryan didn't leave the couch or feel any better until the Cardinals won and were headed to the Super bowl (wooo-hoo)! I took Ava out of the condo once because she wasn't feeling that hot and I attempted to nurse my family back to health! What a weekend! Definitely not the weekend we had planned on having, nonetheless it was very nice to get out of Sin City for a few days. We look forward to going back next winter.

Reflecting on 2008

I've offically decided it was time I jump on the blogging bandwagon. So, here goes...

We had quite an eventful 2008. I planned a wedding in 8 months, we bought a house, Ryan and I got married, honeymooned in Cabo, Ava turned 1, spent Thanksgiving in Prescott and Christmas in St. Johns. Here is a compilation of photos taken in 2008...
