Feels like Home!!







So Memorial day weekend comes along, and I suggest that we go look at couches since we are planning on moving out of Wymount after finals into a really nice place called Monaco Court a little past 700 east past center street to. I'm really excited because its much nicer than wymount, has a dishwasher a better family room/kitchen area and is only a little more than what we pay now. Wymount has been good to us though. Anyways I just wanted to go look at the couches and low and behold the first place we go to is RC Willey outlet and we find a great sectional that was at the lowest price it has ever been. So we loved it and said I'm sure we can find something cheaper somewhere else. SO then we went to a small family owned place, didn't find anything. Then we went to the actual RC Willey because they always have different things and I feel in love with a bigger and more more expensive sectional, so did Spencer, but a different one then mine. So we where there for a while talking to a sales person, but we just kept thinking about the one at the outlet. So we went back to the outlet and bought it. YAY!!!!! THe only bad new was that it wasn't going to get here until Feb. 15 but last week they called us and we were able to get it. THen over the Christmas break we bought a 7 1/2 foot love sac that didn't seem very big to us compared to the 6 foot. So we got that in the mail the same week as the couch. Now there is no room to walk and too many wonderful, comfortable places to sit. We love your couches and so does everyone else that sits on them. I think they will last a long time and I love the way they look as well. even when we move into our small first house, we can put these couches somewhere. So I am proud of our first couches and our apartment finally feels homey!! WHOO HOOO!!

Then in that same week as well, Spencer got his awesome new phone. THe Droid Eris. HE loves, loves, loves, loves it and is always telling me of the cool new things he finds out with his phone. Lately his been obsessed with scanning the bar codes on books, movies, or anything that has a bar code and he can find it at different stores for cheap. It is a pretty cool phone and he is very good at not spending too much time on it when we can be together so I am very proud of him for that. But personally, he has become kind of a phone geek with it.hehehe never thought he would but he has done it. O and a really cool story of him, Kyle, and Nate(just some die hard nuggets fans). On friday, we were all watching the Lakers vs Nuggets together and after the game they decided that they would go up to the airport and wait for the nuggets to get in salt lake since they were playing the jazz (YUCKY!!) on saturday night (which we all went to and it was a sad game since the nuggets lost) So they left around 1 AM and just sat at the fork in the road to where you can go off on north temple road or enter the freeway. Kyle drove and was running out of gas and they took north temple road for a gas station, got out of the car and just about to put some gas in when they saw a carter bus drive by. They decided to follow it all the way to Grand America hotel, but parked at Little America across the street, ran over and saw Chauncey Billups, Carmelo Anthony, JR smith, and Kenyan Martin ( I think I spelled them wrong o well). They ran up to them and said great game, beat the jazz and Nate was the only brave one to ask Carmelo for his autograph. They were pretty tired as well and I'm sure just wanted to sleep. But they had a great time just to see them for a little bit and have a really cool, very spontaneous and very very lucky experience to tell everyone now. I didn't really think they would actually find them out of all the odds to. ITs crazy, but really awesome!!

School is going well. I really want to be done with it. I am tired of studying, but I still have another year left and who knows. Maybe I'll go to grad school for something. NOt sure yet. I do know that we could be here for a while if we decide to stay and go to BYU Law instead of some other state, which I think we really want to do, but we know BYU has a great law program so it wouldn't be that bad. Every thing is doing great, work is good for both of us and I've only had to get up twice really early in the morning since there has been so little snow here. We love every minute of our marriage and it just gets better everyday. I can't believe we have been married 8 MONTHS. whew how time just flys by when your having fun!!!

Yes I know its been a while!!







Hello blogging world. I know that I have been really behind, but there isn't much to tell you. I think with thanksgiving and christmas coming up, I will have much more to tell you. But life is jolly good and Spencer and I are having a blast together. That picture with the happy birthday fish plate is a great story. So all growing up, my parents got a mickey mouse plate of him climbing a snowing mountain and we used to use that plate every birthday we would have a special place setting at the table where they sat and a happy birthday banner across the wall. I have always wanted to go to this place called Color Me Mine. What you do there is you pick out a pottery piece, almost anything and everything, from cups to plates, to bowls, to piggy banks, to christmas bowls or cool plate for candy, picture frames and all sorts of fun things to choose from. Well, it was my turn for date night last weekend and we went out to dinner at this awesome new asian food place called Pho noodle house on state street. It was delicious and I totally recommend it to everyone. That's besides the point, but Spencer has no idea what we were doing and where we were going since I was driving. Total surprise, but when we got there, I told him about the mickey mouse birthday plate and said I wanted to make a homemade on for our kids to use for their birthdays. We were going to use a normal boring round plate, but we saw the fish plate and Spencer was in Love with using it. It was kinda more expensive and we decided to use the normal one, but once we sat down he changed his mind and really wanted the fish plate, which I was totally fine with cause I liked it much better to. Well he had all the ideas and had total fun and I did as well with making the happy birthday in between each stripe of the fish and use balloons and confetti dots on the rest. We set to work and were really rushing in the end. I wish we had more time so our lines would me more even and better, but thats, the fun in creating your own. It's not perfect cause we aren't the best at drawing, and thats what makes it so special to us. Now we have a awesome happy birthday fish plate for our kids to us. YAY!!!! I really love it and I think it turned out AWESOME!

But Spencer and I have just been really busy with school and work. I am in a floral design class right now and I have really, really enjoyed it and I am thinking of going more towards floral design work instead of landscape design. I think I am better at it then design, but I know I could get better at landscape, just need some practice. I am really looking for an internship with a floral company, so I hope I get one this summer(cross your fingers for me). Anyways, work is cool since I am always at the Provo temple. It hasn't been too cold and no snow yet to wake up bright and early in the morning around 2 or 3 sometimes, which is what I get to do all next semester!!!School is school and I only have 3 semesters left of it. CRAZY!! and well thats just FANTASTIC!! (fun times with HPPP!! for all who actally read this meaning rachelle, audrey, and ashely- hahahah -evil laugh- voldemort voldemort o volde voldemort!!!) Anyways thats about all I have right now. More updates to come later.

Our Story!!


Here we are. Living in Provo at Wymount Terrace, starting a new life together. From our first days of hanging out going to football and basketball games, chiptole, watching movies on the love sack, talking all through history, and feeding you lunch with my meal plan.







To offically dating, as Spencer took forever to finally give in and just date me. I was ready way before him, BUT... he claims he never had a true girlfriend before and didn't really like the title/DTR, which was totally fine with me. I just thought that we started offically dating just me and him way before he did and we didn't discover this until we were engaged and were talking about things. Funny know looking back at that time being surprised he went out on other dates with other girls that I had no clue about because I thought we hung out almost everyday and he had no other opportunity to go out with other girls. O well I've got him forever now. YAY!!!





To being Engaged and more in love with him ever because he stopped being mean and telling me that I should go on a mission. Or saying nothing about me in his summer plans. He finally asked me the week after Valentine's Day and after meeting his family in Colorado. I was totally surprised to because I thought he wouldn't ask me until April, but I was so happy that he asked me sooner then later. I don't think I could of handled him telling me to go on a mission anymore. Wedding planning we easy and fun, but I know that it was hard work for my mom and all the people who helped make my reception and wedding day the most wonderful, beautiful day ever.




To our wedding day. The most amazing sealing and reception ever. The people who helped out made our backyard look like heaven. It was more then I ever thought it would be and I was so happy that most of my family could make it as well as my
three best friends, Lauren from home, Meghan and Audrey from school (I wish all my
roommates/best friends could of been there), and Kyle, Spencer's best friend and mine as well. The journey to where we are now has been a long one, but the wait was totally worth it. I love being married to the most wonderful, sweet, loving, kind man ever. He makes me happy everyday and I couldn't of been any happier with anyone else because Spencer is the only one for me.
