Lesbian Hike is What We Call it:

I looked up this hike before we got to Hawaii. It was only an hour and a half round trip according to the website. So we take off on the hike excited to get to the waterfall. About 15-20 minutes up the trail we run into these two girls, we follow them on the trail for a few minutes. The one pink haired girl tells us she did hike a few years ago bla bla bla. We keep hiking. Then we get to a fork in the trail. The two girls think we should go straight. I keep saying I think we should go left. But whatever, they have done this hike before. We keep following them. And following. And following. And following. Pretty soon it has been about an hour. I reference the website that said it would be an hour and a half round trip.....
JUST THEN--we come across this little sign:


I almost cried. We were soo tired and hungry at this point! So we turn around and head back. The lesbians took the 6.3 mile route. Hope they had fun.








We get back to the fork and turn left. 5 minutes later we get to the waterfall. Lesson learned: Don't follow crazy lesbians with pink hair. Ever.



This is where we get to the waterfall, get attacked my mosquito's, and yell at Taylor to get out of the back ground of our picture. haha good times!

Time For a Little Catch Up--Adam's Birthday!

Adam is now 27! Yay! I think he had a pretty good birthday if I must say so myself. We stayed at the Alaskan Inn in Ogden--it was awesome! I booked the Eagles Nest room--everything eagle!

Yep, everything eagle.

Martnelli's, cookies, and romantic music was playing when we got there! And naturally an eagles cry. (Broke one of those glasses) haha

Breakfast was sooo good! We ate way too much and it was worth it!

Happy Birthday Adam!

23rd b-day!

I LOVE ADAM! I had such a fun 23rd birthday! We went to my favorite bed and breakfast in Heber (the Johnson Mill) and shopped ALL day; and went to dinner at night. Loved my birthday! Adam is such a romantic, and I love it! At the b&b they have this cute little pond on the property that we took a canoe around one night.

I just love this picture! Its from My 21st birthday when Adam and I were dating! He always spoils me! I love him!

Dirty Dashers!

Before the race started, we thought we were pretty sweet! And yes, we are matching once again...haha and to add to that; yes, my shorts really were that short! Yikes! (At least I match unlike Adam's outfit! haha) The whole fam minus Danielle--just had a baby, Danny--didn't sign up in time, and my mom...well...she was there she took these pictures!
My dad, me and Adam in action! Too bad we only kept up with Taylor the first 100 yards or he could be in this picture too; he killed us!

At the end still thinking we are pretty sweet!! It was SOOO fun!


The reason Adam complained the whole time. Sick, I know! He has said "look at my blisters" so many times I thought I would take a picture, it lasts longer!

Red Rock Relay!

Red Rock Relay--So fun! We ran 186 miles from Brian Head to Zions National Park. We had 11 people (1 short, long story) and 2 cars aka vans. This was our car and our team name!
I was the last runner in our van. This was my first leg, 5.8 miles, I thought I was going to die here. Isn't Bre cute?! What a good friend! I just ran up this HUGE hill, the van pulled over and she ran out to get me some water and a good pep talk! I love her!

This is our van at the starting line!

The girls being sweet! haha! So of course there is a story with this post...So I just have to start by clarifying to those that don't know that I need 8 hours sleep every night and regular food intake or I die. So I had no sleep at all. My last leg was down Snow Canyon, the van couldn't come down it with me because it was before 6 AM. So I ran down it scared to death, I was on this creepy trail by myself for 5 miles. I got back in the van and I was so relieved. Then we started driving following the next runner and I just started feeling sooo sick. I was freezing, nauseous, and dying. I sat up and everyone looks at me and says "Wow you don't look good, you look really pale." I just started crying!! (I started my period the next day TMI I know) But the point of this is I don't have any pictures of all of the team at the end because Adam came and picked me up in Washington County. :( sad. But I am alive and my team did so good! I really did love it!

Predictable Labor Day:

Labor day at the cabin: Predictable. Taylor teasing Cayli: Predictable. Going on a LONG walk: Predictable.

Playing games all night and all morning: Predictable. Cayli and I on a team: Predictable.

As soon as the new neighbors drive away from the cabin they are building we invite our selves in to snoop around: Predictable.


Lauren and Cayli: Predictable.


BYU vs Utah rivalry: Predictable.

Texas Part 2

Shark fishing! The girls caught a shark! Not that I contributed to this at all, but I was there. I was either standing over the edge puking my guts out or laying on a dirty bean bag
All of the girls! This is the few minutes that I wasn't as sick on the boat. We saw some dolphins right after this pic, it was sweet!



Adam with the fish the guys caught. I love him!



Mini golfing!




Adam and Brandon on a ride (I have no idea what its called and I was too chicken to go).

Todd Packer from The Office



Adam and I went to Wiseguys last night to see Todd Packer aka David Koechner! I had what I call a "perma-smile". I can't even explain how funny it was! It was seriously so funny. I've been quoting lines from it all day long!
Adam and I LOVE comedy! When we weren't even dating, well kinda dating, hanging out, starting to date, he was into me in a big way, you know that stage we were in. Well he came over to my house and we watched comedy for hours, we were sitting on the couch laughing so hard. Suddenly my laptop froze from all the downloads. Still frozen five minutes later. Perfect opportunity Adam goes in for it--for the first time! haha we laugh that our first kiss was when we were watching comedy and my computer froze, so comedy reminds me of kissin Adam! I love him!

Bee's Game Mess:




Adam is the "jumpiest" person ever! You know where this is going: We barely sit down, Stu yelled "wow" because a foul ball was hit and coming into the crowd above us. Adam jumped and some how knocked Stu's brand new, no bite taken out of, hot dog onto the ground. Lets not forget that we had eaten sunflower seeds previously and spit the seeds on the ground (and in this ladies hair in front of us--oops) haha Stu ate the hot dog anyways, no surprise there :)


Have I said how much I love Sommer? I love her! We love to double with Stu and Sommer they are always so much fun.

Memorial Day



Just to start this post off I would like to say that I was dressed before Adam. He copied me. And yes, walking up the trail everyone we passed made a comment about the U or us matching....On with Memorial Day...Adam and I hiked Adam's Canyon, it was so so fun! I haven't hiked Adam's canyon since high school, and in high school I swear I hiked it 15 times! So it was a good little walk down memory lane. My favorite part of the hike, story time: We were on our way back down and this family was coming up the trail. They were at a part where you either scale this boulder or walk in the little stream. Well this mom was trying to get all 4 of her kids across this rock and her husband was in the back ground picking his nose waiting for them to get across. We were waiting as well. Well the mom got scared and started yelling at Adam to help her! So Adam steps on a rock in the stream and it falls so his foot is soaking and this lady is all freaked out that her kids will fall into 2'' of water! I am just standing on the other side laughing like is this really happening? Adam was so mad. At this same time the kids make it across fine and continue hiking. Adam was all mad that his foot is wet and that this lady just yelled at him. He says "the worst part is she didn't say thank you and she was wearing a BYU hat" hahaha. I always think these stories are funny but after I write them I'm not so sure. Maybe you just had to be there. Why do weird things always happen to us?

Rollins-Graff Time= Always a Good Time


On Presidents Day (BOO president Obama) we went to lunch at Chili's--we finally decided after much indecisiveness on our part; ate at the smallest table ever, where they double charged us after looking at our bank account the next day.... To our next stop: the Aquarium in Sandy! So here is our picture....Oh yeah and please notice that every time we hang out Stu is wearing BYU attire or something dark blue and Adam puts on every Utah item he owns. Love it.

Sunbeam Time

We have been the sunbeams teachers for a few months now. We LOVE it! We had three sunbeams for a few months, but because of the class changes for the new year we only have one now--Sammy. He is so funny. Funniest kid I have ever met. Adam and I come home from church laughing and trying to remember all of the funny things he says to us. We know all about his family, his dog Benny and cat Sasha and the new movies he sees. This picture is of him and Adam playing with his favorite toys the pig and the dog. He loves hiding them and having us try to find them. The window seal behind them is where he likes to leave two cookies every week, so when we come back to class the next week he eats the two stale cookies in the window seal and has a new bag as well. My favorite thing has to be that he always calls Adam "Sister Graff". hahah "Sister Graff I'm hungry I need a treat" looking right at Adam. Adam has worked hard to teach him the difference but he still gets confused and just calls us both sister Graff. So many funny stories, probably more funny for me and Adam. :)

Gingerbread Making at its Best!

The workstation
Stu and Sommer--their roof is not staying up!

Adam and I showing off our masterpiece


Team Rollins




Team Graff



My dear husband Adam loves to talk--trash that is--I will explain. So Sommer and I were texting about hanging out over the Christmas break and trying to come up with some things that we could do. Adam tells to to tell Sommer that we could making gingerbread houses and how our gingerbread house would be so much cooler than theirs bla bla bla. So the competition was on. Not to mention that we have had this planned for over 3 weeks because of finals and busy holiday activities. Last night we finally had the competition! Long awaited and anticipated. We even set the timer on the microwave and everything. Adam and Stu were out of control! Talking trash on each other saying things like "Stu I wish you could get control of your wife", "We have been married longer than you two, maybe one day you will understand." Then Stu started eating some of our house Adam was outraged. We always have so much fun with Stu and Sommer! We planned on just showing up at one of our neighbors to have them judge it, but was anyone home? Saturday night--No. So we sent picture messages to my cute little brother Taylor, did he text us or call us back? No. His response was "On a date" over text. Still haven't heard from him!!! So there is still no winner so far. But I would say ours is pretty sweet. :)

Christmas 2009 Part 1


When Adam has time in between finals I am so so happy to spend any time I can get with him. This adventure: GATEWAY! Best mall ever. We always have so much fun there. It was so COLD! I was dying, but we found this awesome firepit--that I now want in our future back yard! :)

Lesson #1 of our first Christmas: Let Adam stay home and watch football, do not bring him Christmas shopping. This picture is the result of 3 hours of shopping. Sorry Adam, lesson learned.






Our First Christmas tree!! WOOO
