~Thriller~

On Tuesday night we went to Thriller with Thomas's family. I had never been, but I heard it was really good! Let me just tell you that I loved it! I really like dancing and things like this so I was thoroughly entertained! I would recommend this to everyone (especially think my sisters would really like this so next year guys)!

The makeup was amazing... This girl was way creepy, her arm looked like it was broken (she must have been double jointed or something) 

Here is another girl that her makeup was also amazing. There were a lot of these "zombies" walking around the theater before they opened the doors. I'm not going to lie when we were walking to find our seats, I was talking to Thomas so I wasn't really paying attention and one came up behind me and scared me! I was pretty embarrassed. 

Here we all are with this scary girl.. When she was walking by I asked her to take a picture with us and for some reason, I decided that I need to use so called sign language...(I acted like I had a camera in my hand and said will you take a picture with us) So Thomas of course says Allison she's not deaf... I felt bad cause I didn't want her to think I thought she couldn't understand me... But We had a great night! Thanks so much to Clay & Belinda for taking us!

My new addiction......
Okay so the office manager at my work was telling me about how her and her sister were saving all this money on grocery's.... It really caught my attention when her sister showed me one of her receipt from the other day where she SAVED $84 and SPENT about $18, I was in disbelieve really. So she explained to me how to do it, but I didn't really understand. So yesterday after work I had Danielle show me how to do it. I was so excited to see if it really worked, So I got online made my list and Thomas and I were off to Albertsons. I was having so much fun getting all my items(while Thomas was on the phone).... When we were done getting all the items, We went to the check out, I will admit I was a little nervous cause I had so many coupons and I wasn't sure if they were going to let me use all of them. When the lady was done ringing us up, I handed her the coupons and it was unreal..... I SAVED $34 and SPENT $15.... I was so proud of myself... SO was Thomas (he couldn't believe that I had it in me to save....ha ha) So I have never used coupons before now, because I always felt like it was way to time consuming and I didn't want to bother with it. But this website helped me organize myself and had a lot of the coupons right there for me. The website in www.grocerysmarts.com you have to put in a code in order to get all the ads in your area to pull up, the Utah passport is g84cef. It was really confusing to me so if you have any questions just let me know. I'm not sure how to get any other states passports, but I'll look into for you, just let me know! I seriously am in love with this.... I think it's so cool!

~The rest of the honeymoon~
So I decided that it would take me a lot of post to go through our whole honeymoon, so here are some of the pictures we took that wonderful week.
We went to a private Island one day, and it was so much fun! They had a lot of different activities you could be doing all day, or you could just sit back and relax! Above is Thomas playing a little water volleyball!
This guy had a whole set up to do massages! I really wanted to get one, but I couldn't force myself to pay $90... Especially because it was out in the wide open for everyone to see!

This is both of us right after we got there just trying to cool off! They actually had waiter's that would get you whatever you wanted!

This was the private Island!

We rented a little golf cart thing while we were on the Island, and cruised around the Island! The Island was only about 10 or 12 miles around, so it was really nice! But at one place on the Island there were these iguana's that you could feed. There was no way I would feed these things, because they were very vicious. I'm not kidding! I watched one of them almost jump up in this guys face... NO JOKE!
Here we are leaving the Island! We got to ride on this way fast boat that went about 95 mph... We had to wear a seat belt!

This was a light house on the Island that we got to go up in and look around.. It was pretty cool!

Here's Thomas walking down from the top of the light house!

Here's Thomas just getting off the boat onto the private Island!

The ride to the Island!

This was the entrance to our hotel, after every time we rode the bus we had to walk up this long steep driveway!

One night we went to some of the shopping districts, and I bought this way cute bag!
Okay so this was on the dinner cruise we went on, and this guys was the host for the night. So when we were boarding the boat the staff was there offering you a drink, so me being who I am, I asked this guy above if there was alcohol in the drinks...(Thomas was so embarrassed) and the guys say "No there's no drinking on the boat tonight!" So I was like good we don't drink....Of course the guy was kidding.... So all he could do was laugh at me! Not only did he think it was funny, but he went ahead and told the whole ship that we didn't drink.... and kind of made a big deal out of it!
So the started playing a game with tequila, and the guy choose me to be his shot giver.... So I stood up on the chair and gave almost everyone on the ship a shot. I think the guy felt bad because we paid a lot of money for this and he didn't think we were getting our money's worth cause we were drinking! So at the end of the night he had a few free shirts to give away, and he gave me one! It was pretty funny!
This was right before dinner on the cruise!
This was right when we got on the ship....Notice no drinks!
This was a restaurant in our hotel that you had to have reservations for, so we were lucky to get in, because I guess it was kind of a big deal! They would bring a lot of different meats around and cut them off this stick thing! The food was really good, and if you don't know me I'm a really picky eater!
This was the view from our room, it was stormy one night:(
This is the bus ride we would take into town and such.... I couldn't hold the camera still because they drive like mad men! The first time we rode the bus we felt like we were going to die!
Here's Thomas in his Hugh Hefner poss... He thought he was so funny! Just so you know we didn't drink the wine, it was still there in the same spot when we left!(Hollie & Greg)
This was at another shopping district... They had a lot of designer stores here, I was really surprised!
Here I am waiting for the bus, and we saw this huge iguana just roaming around the bus stop. This was before I saw the one jump up on that guy... I wouldn't have got that close if so!

This was another view from our room, one of the pool's at our hotel!
This is another view from our room! It was so pretty there, I love how blue the water was! We had so much fun there! If anyone ever wants to take a trip there with a group of people Thomas and I would be happy to go!

~Day one of the honeymoon~
For our honeymoon we went to Cancun, Mexico! It was so much fun, and the water was so clear and amazing! Thomas didn't tell me where we were going, and he really tried hard not to let it slip, but when we were on our way back to Utah for the reception and in the car Thomas said "Well I'm taking a bigger bag to Mexico..." He looks over and says "Crap!" So I really found out the night before we left where we were going! I was so excited! We had a great time and loved the tan we came back with!
This was our room... We had the honeymoon suite! When we got there they had chocolate covered strawberries and wine waiting for us. I love chocolate cover strawberries, but the ones in Mexico were not that great:(

This was a little hot tub that was right outside on the balcony!


We went on a little walk on the beach, and I have always loved seeing these types of beds on the movies, who would have thought I would get to really hang out on one!


Here we are on the bed thing! It was so hot and humid that night!

~Saturday Honey Do's~
Two Saturday's ago Thomas had his work cut out for him... I have wanted him to paint our dressers since we have moved into our apartment, and we finally took the plunge and did it... Well Thomas did! Our bedding is Brown and green, so I thought the dressers would look good if they were a dark brown.... So he started to paint them brown and after he got two of them all done I changed my mind (imagine that!) So I had to run to Lowe's and buy some black paint... Thomas was so good about me changing my mind. He has so much patients with me and I love it! I think he is amazing he does so much for me and it's great! The dressers really did turn out great! they came from my brothers old room so I'm sure they are more than 10 years old maybe even older. It was like getting new furniture for under $75 which is a great deal for three large dressers and one night stand... along with a mirror, shelves, and hooks! Thanks Thomas I sure do love ya!






Here are the dressers before they got painted... the white ones were mine, and the oak ones were Thomas's!


The Pictures above are me changing my mine! Round one (the brown paint) Round two (the black paint)! The difference between the two! I had a different picture in my mine when I was thinking brown would be cute... defiantly a different brown!














Here is everything finished! Unbelievable how a little paint makes something look totally different! I love them! Thanks again Thomas your great!
