I have the sweetest husband in the whole world! He has absolutely spoiled me over the past month. The day he got home from D.C. he surprised me with a brand new camera! One of our buddies had a way nice camera when we went to NY and he let me use it and I loved it. I wanted one so bad but I figured it would be some time til I got one... like three years or so. But no, my adorable husband decided to buy me one anyways. He bought me a Canon Rebel XT and I LOVE IT! Thank you so much Trav. I have been having so much fun learning how to use it.. too much fun according to Trav. I have to admit I have been a little extra picture crazy lately, those of you that know me well, already know that I LOVE taking pictures. Well its about 10 times that bad now. Ha! Poor Travis. So if you notice an increase in pictures on our blog thats why!!! Also, we sold my Mazda3 back in August and so I had been driving Trav's car until he got home. We shared a car for a couple weeks, which was definately not ideal but we survived. I don't know how some people get by with one car, it amazes me. Anyways we finally bought a Murano a couple weeks ago and we love love LOVE it! Its such a fun car to drive. About a week later, I wrecked Travis's Ford Fusion. Now we are back to sharing a car. NOT FUN! Right now it is a few hundred dollars away from being totalled, we should find out tomorrow if they are going to repair it or just total it. We have our fingers crossed that it is totalled, especially since Travis really really wants a new car. Who knows. We will just have to wait and see!!
Trav and I enjoyin the beach! Notice my tippy toes... I seriously have to do this in every picture!
Brookie was my buddy all week!
Travis's family goes to Bear Lake every year for a week. They stay in this amazing cabin and spend the week boating, laying on the beach, four-wheeling, playing games, watching movies, sitting in the sauna, and just hanging out! Last year Travis and I had an amazing time together, even though we had just started dating. Who would have thought? Ha. I can't believe a year has gone by already, so much has happened. We had another incredible time together this year at Bear Lake. Here are some memorable moments...
I can't believe September is here already. I know the summer is long over but I guess better late than never! I promised to post some of our pictures from our summer in D.C. Here are some of our favorite places...
We were married on February 1, 2008 for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple. Our precious Taiya was born on August 1, 2009. We are so excited to be moving forward together and get to share our special moments with you all. We are so blessed to have such amazing family and friends!
