Family

Here are some pictures that Nikki took of our family! She did a WAY better job than the chick we paid to take them. (And we actually got the photos)



We all obviously have true RED Blood!!! - !_! GO UTAH!!

Busy Busy Busy

I can't believe that Christmas is just around the corner. I had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Grandma and Bud's with my family. It was a great meal. Dick had to work so he missed it but they fed him a Thanksgiving feast there. When he got off we watched a couple of movies and had pie!

We got up and went shopping early Black Friday, mostly for kicks because our 'Christmas' shopping is done. It wasn't as crazy as in years past and we got more than we needed, but they were great deals. Also we both had to work. (Even though I only ended up staying for an hour)

After Dick got off on Friday we headed off to Delta and Stayed there until Sunday night. We were able to spend some time with Grandma Sorensen with We were both Very Grateful for. She is an awesome person and with us leaving for the summer's we don't see her as often as we would like to. We had a Great Thanksgiving Holiday.

Also On Thursday December 3rd, we were able the attend the Utah Valley Symphony Christmas Concert, we try to make it to at least the Christmas concert every year. Thanks for letting us enjoy your talent Carolyn! It was fun and we were able to watch it with Chad, John and Marcy and as we usually do we headed out for ice cream afterward.

Up and coming-
Tonight I will be enjoying the company of my adorable nieces and nephews. (that's right multiple, thanks to Wylie being able to join us) We will be eating dinner, and decorating Gingerbread houses. They will be staying over and we will all get up for a delicious breakfast with 'Jolly Old Saint Nicholas'. Hoping to update with pictures soon.

Pig Roast/Halloween

So I haven't been very consistent in taking pictures. I now have a camera that I LOVE <---Thanks Dick! Which means there will be many pictures to come.

The end of October through to January is pretty busy for our family... We have our anniversary, Halloween, The annual Pig Roast, My Birthday, I plan to make my second attempt at Fondant cake for. Wyatt's Birthday, Thanksgiving, Stevie, Erin, Emmy's Birthday's Christmas Festivities and then on to New Years.. SO many pictures to came!

-Jed and Charma showing some love-







So last year was the first Pig Roast, Dick and I had just gotten home from our Honeymoon and went out to Jed and Charma's for the Roof Raising, Pig Roast. This year we had our 2nd Pig Roast at Aaron and Suzzane's house in Lake Shore. They put the pig in the ground in the morning and rented a bounce house. It was a delicious feast!


-Pig Roasting fun! Shawn and Nikki-



-Now Megan and Lee with more love-

Dick had to work so he didn't make it until around 9:30. We had good food, good company and good times. The boys dig the pig up. It was stuffed with all kinds of delicious veggies. The Sunset was gorgeous so I had to get a couple shots of that. Dick and I played with Ali in the bounce house for about 10 minutes before we left.














All in all the pig roast was awesome, we had a great time and I am looking forward to next years! Thank you to the hosts and planners that made it all happen.







Halloween happens to be one of my favorite holidays. This year I was able to dress-up for Bunco! Thank you girls! We also went to a haunted house for girls night.




But since I am LAME and didn't do anything on Halloween I didn't dress-up for the actual Holiday. I did however get to take some pictures of my adorable niece and handsome nephew in their costumes, with my BRAND NEW CAMERA!!!! (I am trying to learn all that it can do, it will take a while, there is a lot to learn)


I was also able to eat our Halloween dinner tradition, my mom made some delicious chili while we were ate Megan's and Megan made more wassil. Dick had to work late but it was an alright Halloween, shoot for more excitement in years to come.

1 year and counting!

Without the Internet at home it is hard to keep up on this dang blog. Pictures will come soon!

WOW! First year down... Now bring on the rest!
As of October 24th, 2008 I have been living a great life with My Best Friend, in the entire world. I can't believe how fast time has gone by and how much we have done in the past year. It will definitely be a year to remember!

We have lived in 3 states this year
We even got to eat at the BEST BBQ restaurant Ever. (thanks for the recommendation Tony)
We spent nearly every minute together this summer and I miss seeing him that much. Being in the real world with jobs that make it so I don't get to see him much, sucks.
We have learned a lot more about each other, which I thought would be hard considering we were Best Friends for nearly 2 1/2 years before we were married!

Dick is THE BEST HUSBAND EVER!
He knows how to make me laugh!
Gotta Love the GUY that can make your crazy, upside-down world, right-side-up again.
Also he pretty much spoils me, even though I don't deserve it.
I Love YOU DICK!
I'll leave it at that I don't want to get sappy.

He knows how to make me mad, but better than that he knows how to make me laugh!

Gotta Love the GUY that can make your crazy, turned upside-down world, right again.

Also he pretty much spoils me, even though I don't deserve it.
