6-Month Recap


Greetings once again from our mountain getaway the locals call "Logan". After looking around, it seems that we are the last married couple in the state of Utah to have a blog. I stumbled upon that fact accidently a couple of months ago. I didnt realize we were so out of the loop!


So here is a little recap of what's been going on with us since we were married in May.


We took our honeymoon to Mexico on a 7-day cruise. The ship was sweet. Once in Mexico, Brittany's skin color blended right in with the local Latino's, while I on the other hand was the whitest chicken in the sea. We rented a dune buggy in Mazatlan and took a tour through the city and the back-lands. We were even priviliged enough to drive 35 mph though a local 4-foot deep sewer river. Awesome!


In July we took a 4-day trip to St. George. We hiked around in Zions Canyon and went out to Sand Hollow lake a couple times. And not to mention, played some balderdash with GMA and GPA Dickerson till we soiled our pants.


In August, we popped over to Park City for a 1-night crazy adventure. We went without having a place to sleep for the night, SO, knowing the our aunt & uncle(Jon and Kim D.) were out of town, we decided to sleep in their backyard on the trampoline. We had been sleeping nicely for about an hour, when around midnight we heard some comotion. Little did we know, there was a probably 20-year-old, single female that was housesitting for them. Upon arriving home late that evening and finding a suspicous car in the driveway(ours), she freaked. She called a couple people, explaining to them that she thought there might be someone in the house and that there was a strange vehicle in the driveway. Next thing we know, all the lights are on in the house, and there are a couple people searching it for the boogeyman(brittany). Anyway, they ended up looking in the backyard and found us there. We explained who we were, etc, etc.....and instead of inviting us in to sleep in OUR own families house.....she called some random neighboor who then invited us to stay the night in their luxury apartment they rent out to out-of-towners. So we did that! It was a stinkin nice place too! Then, the following day we woke up and spent some time on main street in Park City and rode the Alpine Slide.

And just recently we were invited on a 7-day trip to Disneyworld by the other Heaps. It was way fun and we enjoyed watching 27-year-old Jeff talk with the characters. The first thing he would say to them was something like, "Hey Buzz, look it's my sister Brittany!".......everytime. It was hillarious. We had some park hopper pass, so we spent time at 5 different parks, including 2 water parks. One of the water parks had the worlds tallest/fastest waterslide. I couldnt talk the wife into riding it with me.

Speaking of Britt, she recently celebrated her 20th B-DAY, it was out of control!

Now we are just going to school here at USU and working like crazy. Brittany is graduating in Family Consumer Science in the summer of next year. She works at an after school program at a local elementary school, and at Bath and Body Works in the mall. I am graduating in Broadcast Journalism next fall and am currently working at Conservice, which is a utility billing company.

Marriage is sweet! We have alot of fun. We(todd) are currently in a deep depression following the Red Sox loss in the playoffs. Now we just root for the Utes, NY Giants, Packers, and Oprah. If you guys ever want to come and visit us up here in Logy, give us a call!


Love,
