Trek

The day after we got back from Redmond we had the opportunity to go on the pioneer trek in Wyoming with my parents ward. It was an amazing experience, and made the sacrifice that the pioneers made so much more real. We put up tents in the wind, had no flushing toilets, or running water for four days. We pulled handcarts for three days straight. We had the opportunity to go into Martins Cove, participate in two river crossings, and do the Womens pull. And helped cook meals for everyone there.
Thank you mom and dad for inviting us to come with you! It is an experience we will never forget!

Introducing Redmond

Jeremy finally took me down to where he grew up! Redmond Utah....the middle of no where! When we got there we went down to jjwd's. Its a store down there that kinda has everything. Come to find out, someone opened a registry for us there, so we went to check it out. We ended up finding a griddle. Then we drove around the town and they pointed out different places, and homes where people live that they grew up with. Then it was back home for a bbq with his family for fathers day. The next morning Jeremy's dad woke us up at 7:30 a.m. because the hot air balloons were over the lake. Once a year they do a fly over the redmond lake and it happened to be while we were there. It was really cool to watch them rise over the lake and float around. One landed right across the street!
Then it was time for church, where the bishop got up and had to explain that he bought chewing tobacco because he had a recipe for killing squash bugs and it called for chewing tobacco. Rumors spread like wildfire in a small town!
Then it was time for some shooting. The guys had a great time, and I even got a couple shots in! I even hit one of the clay pigeons...total luck!
We had a blast and it was really fun to see that part of Jeremy!

Jeremy and I decided that we needed new sunglasses and these were a perfect fit! Just kidding, we definately have better taste than that! Mom and Dad took the whole family to see the movie UP in 3D. It was a blast and is such a good movie....a must have if you ask us! It was fun to watch my niece's and nephew's trying to figure out how the glasses made the movie come right off the screen!

Our first Garden

And the best part about it is its actually growing!





This is our second project. Planting a garden in the backyard! Gotta love those garden veges!

Our Home

This is Jeremy and my first project togther, our home! It was quite an experience from start to finish. It took us a week and a half after closing to get the previous owner out! He left a little bit of everything in the house, and took off with our microwave! That is stealing. We told him if he brought it back we would give him his stuff because it legally belonged to us now. Of course we didn't want any of it just the appliance back. We finally had to put all his stuff out in the driveway the night before a snow storm to get him to show up! Which worked,and he took half his stuff! Good thing there was another snow storm coming!
Once we got him out it took us about a week and we had all the holes patched (the previous owner had a bit of a temper), and the whole upstairs re-painted. Thank goodness the downstairs wasn't finished yet! It was so fun to see it all come together! We had so much help from so many people, thank you all! Special thanks to dad who did a special texture by hand on the yellow/gold wall. We love it and he did a great job! Your amazing!

Wedding day pics

These are some of the wedding day photos outside the temple. We had so many of our loved ones and friends there to support us! Thank you for being there for us on our awesome day. We love you!

Bridal Pictures

The day I had my bridal pictures taken we brought Jeremy along in a nice little tux and had most of our pictures taken together. We didn't have a lot of time the day we got married so we opted to do it together early! The snow had all melted, and two days before 0ur pictures were taken it snowed 1 1/2 feet! I was so mad, I did not want snow in any of my pictures! But I think they turned out pretty good anyway! Enjoy!!!

Engagements

These are a few of our engagement pictures for your viewing pleasure! It was 22 degrees the morning we took these, we were freezing! But we managed to smile through it!
