A little more of our lives

So I think im still a little confused on how the heck to post things on a blog because it seems to never look the way I want it to (Any advice?). Well atleast im trying right? So here is a few more things Skyler and I have been up to since we said our I do's!

So a few weekends ago I decided to through a Minute to Win It Night at our house, and oh boy was it fun! Even though our house is a little small we still had a blast eating cookies, bouncing balloons, chopping some fruit, and showing off how flexible we are!! This will be the first night of many to come hopefully :)

This was a FANTASTIC day!! :) Skyler and I both had work off for the 4th and it was Skyler's BIRTHDAY!!!! He is now the big 22! (I'm pretty much married to a old man) We celebrated his birthday by having a big birthday breakfast in his honor, followed by a day of swimming, food, food, oh and more food!!! Than we watched the amazing 4th of july firework show! (but shhhh.....I told skyler the fireworks are for his birthday not for the 4th of july) 

This was a big day in our lives! We finally decided to expand our family and buy some fish :) Their names were (were is used because skyler's fish killed my fish...) Comet and Ajax! we are a little cheesy and name our babies after cleaning supplies, but I loved there names! Skyler's fish is the blue one and mine is the gold fish. We decided we needed some fish to see if we are responsible enough to have kids... obviously not because we had 2 now we only have 1... (Good practice though right?)

We finally went on our first boating adventure together this summer (this being a first in the seven years we have known each other) It was a blast! We tubed, sat on the beach, wake boarded, swam, and got our tans on! By the end of the day we were EXHAUSTED!! Skyler was pretty much dead at the end of the day because he smacked his head pretty hard falling off the tube (Which scared me to death because I want children!! haha oh and because I would die without him!) 

Over all of this last almost 5 months of marriage I'd say we have been making the best of it. We try our best to work hard, but at the same time have some time for fun! We want to thank everyone that has helped us get through these months of marriage (Because marriage though amazing can be hard at some times). We love each and everyone of you :) 

So we're married... Now what?

So im pretty much the worst blogger in the whole world. I decided to do one so that I didnt feel as bad for not writing in a journal (Cause its kind of the same thing right?) well here I am weeks later and havent posted anything since I made my Blog... (Yeah you can call me the worst blogger ever) But im determined to put some more post up (so that when I have kids I can be like look look me and daddy used to be fun!! ;) haha)

So me and Skyler have been doing lots of fun and exciting things lately! We have gone camping, hiking, sunset watching, dancing (in our living room of course),  and so many more fun and exciting things! Here is just a little glimps into a few of our adventures! :)

      So my moms side of my family has these great family reunions every other year and this year I was finally one of the married couples :) (Wont lie i was super excited about this). Even though Skyler has been a part of my family for several years now he had his first experience as an actually member in our family reunion.  This year we went to the rec center and played games, rock climbed, went swimming, and just plain enjoyed being a family! I love family reunions and can't wait till the next one (Maybe with another member of the family on the way?? never know!)

So, even though I say it all the time .. I LOVE MY HUSBAND!! He planned the most perfect date for us! We went to Cafe Rio (One of my most favorite places!) and than drove out past sand hollow res.

and watched as the sunset, after which we did sparklers and watched the stars! Can I say GOOD JOB to Skyler or what! I truly was impressed :)

Even though this wasn't a very fun adventure, it was an adventure non-the-less! Having my 3 year check up and having skyler be there with me when they told me i was cancer free, Dare I say one of the best experiences of my life!! I think he loved watching them poke me and make me sit in weird machines! but i still love him!

This weekend was AMAZING! It was the first time ive taken work off since i started my new job! This weekend we had the opportunity to see skyler's sister get married in the temple for all time and eternity :) it was WONDERFUL! I got all into her gift (Because her and her husband are awesome and they deserved something great!) So i put together a date basket, it had a movie and games, money, and a jar full of date ideas! I was pretty proud of myself for putting it together :) 

Also while up in Salt Lake we of course had to hit one of skylers favorite food places a wing place called wing coop... I had HUGE expectations and oh boy were they met! If you havent ever been there I highly recommend it! They have a big variety of different sauces to get in different spices! (Im a huge spice person and it was the perfect amount of spice!)

We also got to see a chineese dragon wedding show! It was extremely interesting, and even though it was pretty much snowing ashes on us from the huge fires going on, it was still a great cultural learning experience for us :)

So I didnt get through all that i wanted to put on this post but I guess that gives me a reason to have to get back on and blog again (I dont know if thats a good or bad thing :/  ....) But Skyler and I are loving every second of being together spending time with each others families and being a family of our own :)

The Beginning of our Forever

On March 9^th 2012 Skyler and I were sealed in the St. George Temple for all time and eternity. And may I say it was downright the best day of my whole life! (Well so far that is!)  Our families blessed us so much on this special day! I couldn’t have asked for a better family to marry into!
