3 Years of Bliss

December 15th was our 3 Year Anniversary. Earlier that week we went to the Jazz game together. We had great seats, thanks to my generous boss.

Go Jazz!!

Then on our actual Anniversary we rode Front Runner down to Salt Lake, ate dinner at the Gateway, and then walked around Temple Square together. It was fun to reminisce about our wedding there 3 years ago, and our very first date that was to see the lights at Temple Square exactly 8 years ago to the day. The Temple is so beautiful, and I'm so grateful that I was sealed for eternity to my best friend there.

I love you Jordan!!! Thanks for yet another wonderful year of marriage. You make my life WONDERFUL!!!

Let the painting begin!

We've been wanting to paint a few rooms in the house, and finally got started. My dad came over the other day and we painted the kitchen together. I think it looks great. I love the Red. I think it really warms the kitchen up. Next project: the basement and some decorating ideas for that bare wall in the kitchen.

Thanks for your help Dad. Sorry you had the stomach flu while we were doing this.

Thanksgiving Festivities

I've been bad and haven't posted about Thanksgiving yet. But it was a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving, and very "blog worthy", so better late than never. Also, I'm horrible and didn't take one picture so these pictures are stolen from Jules.

Anyway... I went to Arizona with my parents and McKenzie to stay with my sister Julianne and her family for Thanksgiving. Jordan had school and work, and I'm a bad wife so I left him to fend for himself on Thanksgiving. (He managed to have some fun of his own and had Thanksgiving with a friends-Thanks TJ).

Here's the whole crazy group, minus Paul with our delicious Thanksgiving feast. (I'm weired but my favorite part was seriously the pickles-hehe) Julianne is such a good cook. I have to admit. I hate cooking. I would so much rather do the dishes. So I did just that. I had so much fun playing with my darling niece and nephews. I love them so much, and miss them like crazy when we're not together.

-On a more serious note, I'm grateful for so much this year. I'm so grateful to be done with school, and to have a wonderful job that I love so much. To have moved into a beautiful house, and a great neighborhood. To have such a kind, loving husband who lets me go on vacation without him because he knows how much I miss my sister. I'm grateful for such a wonderful family, who I love spending time with. And my Savior Jesus Christ, who gave everything for me. I am so blessed.

This is my new favorite Thanksgiving tradition. After dinner we watched the Labyrinth together. Okay, this is the sickest, yet most incredible movie EVER!!! I am seriously obsessed with it. I don't think I have laughed so hard over any other movie in my life.

Since Julianne's family isn't coming down for Christmas this year, we had a little Christmas celebration there too. I love these kiddos so much. I could wrestle, tickle, tease, and kiss them all day. We had such a fun trip. I'm glad I was able to take off work and come down to visit. It's not everyday you get to ride a golf cart to play at the park in the middle of Winter. Thanks for a good time guys! I love you all so much.
