St. George

This past weekend we went down to St. George with our friends Emily and Brad. It was the perfect getaway. We stayed at my Aunt Diane and Uncle Ron's house and they were so generous and fun. We went on a hike, swam, went on a few church site tours, and the highlight was going to Tuacahn. We saw Hairspray and loved it. We had 3rd row seats. Awesome! Sunday morning we went to the Brigham City Temple dedication and then headed home.

When Mom Comes to Town

These past few days went by way too fast. I loved having my mom here. It was so much fun. She truly is the greatest person ever. We made pizzas on the bbq and played cards. We made journals. We made the cutest fall table runner. I love how it turned out and can't wait for fall. And we made homemade pretzels, which were delicious. It's a bummer that she lives so far away, but it makes the time we get with each other that much more meaningful. Love you, Mom!

One Year Anniversary

I can't believe we have been married a year. It has truly been a great year and we are excited for what is ahead.
We started our day enjoying some delicious breakfast together. Waffles, strawberries, and smoothies. Then we had an unexpected event. The night before we were out running errands and the car decided to die on us. An overly enthused lady helped us jump our car and we made it home, only to have it die on us again. Matt spent the morning buying a new battery and fixing the car. Not the expense we were thrilled about, but glad the car is back to normal.
We got ourselves a Costco membership and finally got my name on my scriptures. Then we were off to Park City to Ruth's Chris. My mouth was watering the whole time. It is seriously so delicious. We went there last year on our honeymoon, so we thought it would be fun to go back. Fun little tradition...don't know how long it will last though.
Then today, we had left over steak and sweet potatoes and enjoyed the top of our wedding cake. We completely forgot about it yesterday! Even though it was a day late, it was still fun. The cake was surprisingly pretty good.
Can't wait for the next year and the adventures we are sure to have!
