Happy Valentines!!

So we had a great weekend. It all started Friday. Matt,Tawnya & I took the day off work so we could go to the temple with Travis & Brittany. It was wonderful. Afterward we all went and ate lunch at Leatherby's. It was so yummy.

When we got home Walnut's eye was swollen shut so we had to take him to the vet. We found out he has an upper respiratory infection, (which was not the worst thing to happen to him this week... he was neutered on Monday) so he is really not very happy with us. Now we have to give him antibiotics for two week. Try getting a cat to sit still so you can give him medicine. It is way hard!

Saturday was Travis & Brittany's wedding. They were married in the Salt Lake Temple. It was a beautiful ceremony. They were sealed to their son Alex. It was very special. I am glad I was able to be there. After were pictures and it was snowing like crazy. It was freezing but the pictures turned out Beautiful. That night was the reception in Cedar Hills. It was a very beautiful reception. I loved the colors that Brittany chose. Pink, Green, Yellow, & Blue. The Reception was very fun. We danced and had a great time seeing family we do not get to see very often. Matt was one of the groomsmen so he was in a tux, he looked was hot, and I did not even take a picture of just him. It was a wonderful day. Congratulations Brittany & Travis!

Since we had the wedding on Saturday we decided to celebrate Valentines on Monday. Matt took me to Rodizio Grill for dinner. then we came home and watched the movie Nights in Rodanthe. That is what Matt gave me for Valentines. I gave him a few books (one is called What Your Poo Is Telling You... Of course Matt can't stop laughing at it). It was a great night.

Update

Hi Everyone sorry I have not updated in a while, I never have time to do anything but work & work. The only reason I have time now is because Matt is not home. I do not think I am the only one that thinks this but when my husband is not home I get so much more done than when he is at home. I cleaned the whole house and now I can catch up on my shows. (what would we do with out DVR) This last Saturday I had two friends get married. My friend Kadee got married in the Salt Lake Temple. I love going there it is such a great place and it reminds me of my wedding. I love taking pictures there I took a few pictures that I really liked that I will upload. This Saturday Matt's cousin Travis is getting married to Brittany. We met her a few weeks ago and we already love her she fits in just great. We are looking forward to their wedding. I hope every one has a great valentines Day.

GO UTES

Last Friday we had the family come back over to watch the sugar bowl. if you have not already heard Utah won. The girls just played games. It was nice to have that last night with Trixie and Jerry before they went home.

Happy New Year

New Years was a lot of fun, we had the family and our friends Mat & Ashley come over. The kids had a seperate party upstairs. The kids were so excited the first thing Aubrey said to me was "I am excited because we are having a kid party". I blew up balloons and had treats for the kids. The adults stayed down stairs and had lots of food, & played games. It was nice to have Mat & Ashley come we had not seen them in four years so thanks for coming guys. We had sparklers for the kids. As the night grew closer to midnight we got out the sparkling cider & 2009 glasses. Happy 2009 I can not belive it is already here.

Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. We had a great Christmas! Matt woke up at 4:30 in the morning excited because SANTA came. He was excited to get his presents because I always get him great Presents.(if he is this excited now just wait until we have kids) He went down stairs and turned on the Christmas music and the Fire place. I laid in bed til about 5:30 and I got tired of him asking me every ten minutes if I was coming to see what Santa brought me so I finally went down stairs to open presents. We got a lot of great stuff games, books, and 16 DVDs. After we opened presents we went to his parents house, his grandmas house and then my parents house. After a long day we went home and relaxed and watch a movie. But about 7 we realized that we had no groceries and we wanted to eat dinner so we went to the Denny's in American fork but it was closed so we drove to to sandy and waited for an hour just to sit. It took about another 30 minutes to get our food. The wind was blowing & it was snowing so hard that by the time we got home it was almost ten o'clock. I had to work early the next day so by the time we got home it was time for bed. So next year we will have to remember to go grocery shopping before Christmas. I can not believe that Christmas is already over and we are starting a new year. It feels like 2008 just started. I hope every one has a Happy New Year.



Walnut was a little tired after opening presents.

Christmas Party

We had a sibling Christmas Party at our house on Saturday. We had a luncheon and then exchanged gifts. It was a lot of fun everyone.
Tawnya & Eric had me & Matt, they got us this really fun domino's game called chicken feet. So everyone stayed late and we played that while the kids played in the toy room. I only took a few pictures so here they are.

Christmas Tree

So Matt & I have been married for five years and we have never had our own Christmas Tree because we lived in his parents basement. So we were so excited to decorate our own tree & hang the stockings on the mantel. Here are some Pictures....










Walnut even helped decorate by taking the balls off the tree!!!
