Our Year







Last night while we were laying in bed T & I were discussing how much has happened this year. One year ago we had been dating for 5 days. Now, we have lived in two different apartments, T has graduated from college and I have gone from going to BYU to USU to UVU. I am a psycho woman I know. Tanner has a grown up job, we have been to Jamaica, St. George, and Shelley, Idaho (my fave... haha) together.  We have bought a new TV, dining table, and been given everything else. Really we have mostly had everything handed to us let's be honesst. But, we really are so grateful for it, and are very glad not to be sleeping on a blow up mattress. 

What else? Well we've gained a lot of weight- not actually that proud of that one. But we have also learned so much. Personally I have learned how to be less selfish- Tanner didn't need to learn that. We have enjoyed spending our date nights in the Logan Temple & we are excited to do the same in Provo. We have learned patience & how to buy margarine instead of butter--- ew. I know right? We have planned a wedding in two and a half months, passed business statistics together, & driven through sardine canyon together too many times to count. Here are some pictures of our year in review!

Jan- Eating Pizookie's on Wes' B-day.
Feb- Sushi Night
Color Fest- March

Dying easter eggs. I was there somewhere.

I don't even know why I am posting this next picture we look like idiots.... Sounds like a dashboard song. 

Again, we look like idiots. Hunting for easter eggs. We couldn't remember where we hid any of them. That's all remember.
We played around in St. George

Jake's Graduation- May

In June we made a cake with the cricut cake machine. It was ugly and gross.
May- Color Me Mine
June: WE GOT ENGAGED.... the fabulous video Jake did can be seen here, http://vimeo.com/26186477.


July- We posed for pictures! 
Went to Thanksgiving Point for my BDAY. (it was hot can ya tell?)

Jamaican Vacation
Our nasty first apartment.

.... we went to school and froze our butts off in Logan for 4 months and then we had a great Christmas with our families. What A GREAT AND EVENTFUL YEAR IT WAS.


We are excited for the new year and the new memories we will make, the challenges we will inevitably face, and another year together.

Happy New Year!

Christmas

We had fun at Christmasing this year. It was our first married so we thought it would be a bit adjustment spending the holiday with our respective families. Luckily it felt very natural. Honestly it felt like we've always done it this way. We saw New Year's Eve, ATE SO MUCH GOOD FOOD, played lots of games, got way too many presents, spent way too much money, went to temple square, and just ENJOYED our time with our families.




Literally, he always wears that hat.


We kept losing Kev and Meema. Jeez.


Christmas eve food!!

Ballet West

AAAH. Heaven on earth. Tanner took me to see the Nutcracker at Capital Theater last night as an early Christmas present. We had so much fun! It brought back lots of memories of being in the Nutcracker when I was younger. Or as we liked to call it when we were in it, Buttcracker. Real Mature. Pictures!!

Awesome bathroom pic. 
Haha I wanted a picture of the city lights but we were literally RUNNING. OBVI didn't turn out too great.


Can i just say I love Ballet West's logo?

very merry!

LATELY... Tanner is a college graduate & we MOVED to Provo!! Don't be jeal. Seriously... Provo is weird. We are LOVING our apartment- I will put some more pictures up later. It's sad to leave Logan for good, but Provo/Orem has so much to offer, so we are excited about that. Our friends all live here and we are SO close to family & Nords. Fab. So here are some pics from the past little while!

Before our Celebratory Dinner for Tanner getting a job! Woo.

Sexy Cheese Grating 

Pinterest thinks wrapping presents in Newspaper is cute- in reality it is for poor lazy people like me!! 

I surprised Tanner when he got back from his last final.
