Birthday Boy!


Today is this boys birthday! He is the big 24 today and we are the same age again for six whole months! And every time I tell him; "babe were the same age again, he has to make sure to tell me that I am turning 25 this year! Cool Tadd thanks for the reminder! He woke up this morning saying "It's my Birthday!" and I had to sing him Happy Birthday and he says that since his birthday is on a Thursday, the rest of the week is his day too, ha we will see about that! I sure do love this boy and appreciate all he does for me each and everyday! I hope this day was a special day for you! Love you Taddy!

Catching up!

     It has been a while since I have updated and Christmas and New Years has already past and I can't believe how fast the year of 2011 has gone! It was a great year for us, a lot happened! We got engaged, got married, and started our life together as newlyweds here in Provo. It has been one of the best years and were excited for years to come and are excited for all the adventures to come in the year of 2012:)
     Over Christmas we headed to Arizona for a much needed vacation to visit with family and get away from school, work, and the normal stresses. On our way down we stopped in Parowan to visit with my parents for a couple days, it was so nice to be able stop and visit since we would be gone during the holidays because we spent Thanksgiving with my parents and than we were off to Mesa. We went to a few Christmas parties and than we were off to a cabin in Flagstaff for a couple days. It was so fun to be with everyone. We rode on the Polar Express train, which was so fun to watch all the little nieces and nephews get so excited to see Santa, we went sledding, and just enjoyed eachother's company. It was one of the best Christmas's and we were so grateful that we were all able to be together for a week and are so grateful for Kim and Willie to make that all possible for all of us. The holidays really mean so much more when you are with family and the ones you love. I love being married and being able to start our own traditions that we can pass down to our future children one day. The holidays flew by, but we will have memories forever. Here's to many more memories to come in the year of 2012!!

         I think Tadd may have been more excited than the little kids were to see Santa
