Our New Car!!!

So about two weeks ago, our Intrepid decided that it wanted to die. Greg was on his way to pick me up from the airport, when it just decided that it was done. Not only did we get home at one o'clock in the morning but we were out a car. We decided together that our best option was to buy another one. I know it probably sounds silly, but this was one of the biggest decisions that we have had to make together. Neither one of us had bought a car before, so it was an adventure. I have decided that I hate salesmen, but don't worry Greg does nothing without research. After days of browsing online we spotted this gem! Today we went to the dealership thinking that we were just going to test drive it, but we ended up driving it home. We are very excited about this purchase. We now feel like we are officially adults. We went on a long car ride tonight, which is the best thing ever!! And best of all we don't have to rely on other people for rides!!

Why can it not be FALL?!

So I was thinking today as I got in my 400 degree car, that I am totally ready for Fall. Football is starting and it is still hot, what is up with that? I love everything about Fall. It is the perfect time of the year. All of the colors are so pretty. I grew up in Kansas which is a little lacking in the tree area so I love that we are in Utah and get to see the trees change. My mother-in-law got a new centerpiece for her table yesterday that has all the fall colors in it. It is so pretty! I keep waiting for it to get a little bit cooler but I get nothing. I have recently bought some really cute clothes, but cannot wear them until it gets cooler. I have tried but it is way too hot for a sweater. I told Greg the other day that maybe if I start wearing warmer clothes the weather will magically change. I'm not quite ready for the months of winter but I could definately use some Fall!!!

Anniversary Part II

So I don't know if I have mentioned it but Greg is AMAZING. For the second part of our anniversary Greg took me to Park City for the weekend. We have been so busy the past month with moving and working that we really haven't had a lot of time to spend together. We left Thursday night after work and got to stay in Park City until Sunday morning. Our hotel was awesome it had a fireplace, kitchen, and a jacuzzi. It was the jazz festival this weekend so on Friday we got to listen to some jazz music from our balcony. We spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying ourselfs. It was the perfect vacation. Now back to work and school!

One Year!!!!

This year has flown past for us. We have loved every minute of it. I am so thankful for Greg and for everything he does for me. Even though we have only been married a year I can't imagine my life without him. For our anniversary Greg suprised me once again. He took me to the Tree Room at the Sundance Resort. It was so good and I loved the atmosphere. Greg ordered elk meat and I had wild boar, it was delicious. He also picked out a beautiful necklace with my birthstone in it. I am so glad I married someone with great taste in jewlery! My present to him was a Neal A. Maxwell quotebook and a Playstation 3 remote keyboard. The next night we enjoyed going to Cirque Du Soleil with Greg's family. It was AMAZING!!!! We enjoyed spending time with everyone. Thanks Jim and Marilee!!!


I love how much Greg and I have grown this year in our friendship and love for one another, and I can't wait for the rest of eternity!!!!

It was definately one of the best vacations of the year. The seafood was AMAZING!! There was so much to do and definately not enough time. Greg and I will definately be going back! Thanks Kristin, Wes, and Tiff is was so much fun!!!!!

Cleveland was awesome!!! We loved every bit of it. We loved spending time with Kristin and Wes and of course the kiddos. Let's just say Kristin is the best tour guide ever. We had loads of fun playing with Lucy and Reese and seeing the sights and of course I got a cavity filled by the best dentist ever!!!!!! We just want to say thanks for a great week Kristin and Wes!




Greg thought this was funny....I don't think Reese did.
