Britt's Writing Aspirations

The wedding industry is a very interesting line of work to be involved in. You meet all kinds of people from all walks of life and watch them try to sift through all of these elements to ultimately create this event for one of the most important days of their lives. After some prodding from my mother-in-law, I've decided that I'm going to write a book (someday) about some of the more colorful people, happenings, etc. that I have met or witnessed during my time with weddings. I'm not sure what it's going to be like yet. We will see if it turns into anything at all. But I am, after all, in school to be a writer. So we'll see what evolves from this project. For now I'm just going to record these events. Let me know if you have any ideas. Love you all!

The Murder Mystery Dinner

This Sunday we are going to have a murder mystery dinner for game night! I think it's going to be lots and lots of fun! The game is called "Deadly Ever After." The characters are all from stories from books. Hopefully everyone will dress up and get really into it. Here is the list of characters:

Brittany- Scheherazade (the victim)

Braden- Long John Silver (the pirate)

Teagan- Mr. Holmes (the detective)

Kate- Alice (the curious one)

Jessalyn- Juliet (the romantic one)

Ben- Prince C. (the charming shoe designer)

Seanne- Red Riding Hood (the baker)

Amy- Snow White (the trusting one)

Steven- The Count (the vampire)

Ian- Hamlet (the thoughtful one)

Kyle- The Mad Hatter (the fashion expert)

Cortney- Rapunzel (the hair dresser)

Preston- Robin Hood (the tree lover)

Berlyn- W. W. (the witch)

The game is on to find out who the murderer is! I will for sure post some pictures of this highly anticipated event!

*Update* This night was ridiculously fun! I would definitely recommend it for a big group activity. You can see photos here.

The Aftermath

Braden and Brittany Davis have been officially married for almost a month. We are in wedded bliss. We have been setting up our darling apartment and discovering all that we were missing out on in our past lives being just the one person. So... due to popular demand (or not so popular, but we try to convince ourselves that we're kind of a big deal) we will be keeping our blog going and torturing you all very slowly with the details of our not-very-interesting lives. I will probably have some mildy entertaining stories about weddings and falling down the stairs (or up the stairs) and Braden will keep you all on the edge of your seats as he endeavors to pick a major once and for all. I hope you enjoy the tales of the B. Davis family! We love you!
XOXO

The Wheel Barrow Challenge

So my family has this hair-brained tradition. I asked around and no one is really sure how we came up with it, but it is a part of our lives nonetheless. Yesterday we were blessed with a party thrown for us by my dear aunt and uncle, Sue and Fred. At this party, my pint-sized groom was required (as a rite of passage or something) to push me down and then back up an impossibly steep hill in a wheel barrow. I am happy to announce that he is amazing and he passed! He has officially been deemed man enough to marry me. I was very impressed. Let this serve as a warning to all of you considering marriage into the crazy Morris family. You will not be able to avoid the wheel barrow challenge!

P.S. Pictures to come soon!

The Love Slugs

Planning a wedding is a lot of work! Sometimes it's hard to find time to remember what this whole thing is supposed to be about... the relationship. :) So the past couple of weeks Braden and I have tried to take the time to just be together and play around. Here are some visual records of our games and excursions...

So far there are still happy, smiling faces... :)

This is Braden with "the love slug." His presence in our lives is a bit of a long story...

This past weekend we went to Hardware Ranch with my family. It was a little chilly. :)

My roommate has been giving us all Henna tatooes because we are cooped up inside and bored.

It's still on my finger and still really shiny. :)

So far so good. Wedding plans are going well and we are still a happy couple. :)

XOXO

The Honeymoon

Picking a honeymoon spot can be tricky. There are so many exciting and exotic places to visit around the world. How to pick just one to celebrate your new marriage?

In keeping with our inner five-year-olds, Braden and I have decided to have a week of magic in Disney World! (Cheers of excitement!)

We realize this choice is a little unconventional for a honeymoon, but we act like five-year-olds anyway. :) Disney World is definitely "us."

We will be staying for a week in the Contemporary Hotel just outside the Magic Kingdom. We will be able to see the fireworks from our balcony! And we get to take a ride around Cinderella's castle in a carriage! How romantic... :) We decided that we are even going to be dorky and get those Mickey and Minnie bride and groom ears and wear them everywhere we go. :)

Wish us happy honeymooning!
XOXO

Valentine's Day

For our first Valentine's Day together, Brade and I decided to go play laser tag! Fun huh? We had a good time. We did get shown up by a bunch of high school students though... We are getting on in years. I mean, Brade sometimes complains if the music is too loud and my hip gives me trouble in bad weather. :)

Sigh... Pretty soon we'll be joining the ranks of the old, married people. ;)
