5 Years ...


WOW Clint and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary last Thursday September 25th. How time flies! We have been through lots of fun and interesting adventures over the past 5 years but have loved every minute of it! We moved 4 times in the first 2 1/2 years but have stayed put in our house since which we love, because moving stinks!!


We celebrated our Anniversary on Saturday. We first went and saw the new movie Forever Strong about the Highland High School Rugby team - which was great. Then we tried a new restaurant that we have learned about from a friend of Clint's from work called Goodwood. It is a very good barbecue restaurant and I am pretty sure that we will be visiting there again!!


I feel so amazed that I was lucky to marry my best friend and to know that our family can be together forever is a wonderful feeling! Here is to lots more Happy Anniversaries!!

Well ...

We are very excited to let everyone know that Makayla is going to be a Big Sister!! Our due date is April 4th and our little family is very excited for this new adventure!

Makayla seems to be excited, we have been showing her pictures online of what the baby looks like and she always gets excited when we show her. We will see how her reaction changes when she actually sees the baby and we bring the baby home!! On the other hand we have a new little niece named Lilly that Makayla can not get enough of. When we are around her Makayla is content to sit and hold her. And if we want a turn she simply says, "No, my turn". Maybe this will be a sign of what is to come!

Makayla's First Football Game

We were able to get some tickets from Clint's Work to go to the Utah vs UNLV football game on Saturday. Makayla does not handle loud noises very well so we were a little nervous on how she would handle the noise of the game. The nerves were not needed!! I warned her on the way in that it might get noisy so whenever something new happened she would cover her ears then realize that it was okay - then she got into the game. She was cheering and yelling at the team and waving her pom poms. It was such a fun night. And it helps that Utah won - after a very scary first half, we didn't think they were going to pull it off - but the team had a fantastic 2nd half and won by 21 points!


After the game they had fireworks in honor of the Armed Forces. It was a fun finish to a great family night out!!
