So we did it - a while ago... I am just a little delayed. We got this house in Provo, Ut. and we have to sell it by November. We got a great deal and are hoping to do well with this one.
As you can see there isn't as much work to do as in Second St. - so hopefully Wes, Paige, Andrew and I can pull this one off ON TIME!
The new sprinklers have been installed and the grass already looks amazing!!!!! We are excited for this one cause it's mainly all cosmetic!
To an incredible friend, mother, wife - person ... JENA WISE!!! We hope you had an amazing day yesterday birthday girl - remember, the celebration isn't over - it should last the rest of the month!
A Utah Plus = A Quick, fun trip to the Lake!!! It's so easy and there's no 405 or 101!!!!
My grandparents came to spend a week and a half with us!!!! We are so excited because I can't remember the time, if ever, that we have had the chance to hang out this much. They have been so helpful around the house, the yard and with the Jackson.
I have been pretty sick - well I can't say that. I have been tired and have needed to lie down a lot in the morning, so they have been so kind as to watch Jackson for me while I get that extra rest. Considering Andrew is in Cali. again, this has been such a blessing. We had the chance to visit Temple Square yesterday and it was such a nice day. I guess any event that begins with a nice lunch and a great view, can't go wrong!
I am sure there will be more pictures later on because we are having a blast!
We will ALWAYS hold a special place in our hearts for those we met in Malibu. The Palisades ward and the Pepperdine gang hold so many memories for us. Last night we had the chance to reunite with some friends of ours. We haven't seen eachother for almost two years. Lance, Ashleigh and their son Kai, were great hosts. We had the chance to tour Salt Lake, see the U, check out the restaurant Noodles, and have an incredible dessert back at their place. You can count on more gatherings in the future!
When we got home, we then had the chance to be introduced to our new friend. We said good-bye to our 30 year old mattress, and with open arms, and grateful backs, we welcomed our brand new bed!!! We slept wonderfully last night!
Giselle, he's using his glasses!!!! For the most part, they are remaining on his head... until he decides he wants to put them on himself, but once he realizes he can't, he has me put them back on him.
Oh but don't let this fool you, we really aren't walking as much as we should!! It's just so freakin' hot - as you can tell by looking at Jackson's rosey face!
"To you women of today, who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many--now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings." --President Gordon B. Hinckley
The end of 1995 was the start of our life together. We took a break for two years in 1997, but once Andrew returned, we continued finding out who we were together and apart. We both ventured off to college but came back together again in 2003 when it was finally time to get married. Our first son was born May 20, 2006 and we love every minute we have with Jackson. Our second son, Ryan Wesley, was born February 15, 2008 and he is simply adorable. Both so wonderful yet so very different. We gained a daughter with the birth of our third child on January 13, 2009. Andi keeps us on our toys and we can't wait to see all she does! Our fourth child, Cole, was born March 2, 2011. This little man makes us all so very happy. We are grateful to God for our incredible family and all the joys and challenges they bring!
