Happy Anniversary

So this is a couple of days late...but I just wanted to make note of this wonderous ocassion. Jaren and I celebrated our second anniversary on Monday. What an amazing two years it has been. It is crazy how time flies when you get to spend every day with your best friend. Jaren and I have grown so much during these two years. We have accomplished so much during these two years, and we are excited to see what wonderful blessings this next year will bring. I will never forget the feeling two years ago sitting in the celestial room just before our sealing...what an amazing moment. I think about it alot and I am so grateful for the gospel and that I get to keep Jaren for not only time, but for all eternity.

I love you Jaren... Thanks for a perfect two years!

Blogging from the phone...

Good morning!!! Just wanted to see if blogging from my phone would work... Maybe I will blog more if it does.

New house!

So I have been really bad about posting on my blog...due to being SUPER busy. But I just thought I'd post that we are buying a house!! CRAZY! I am very excited and very nervous. We will hopefully be all moved in by the end of the month!! YAY!!

Texas & STAR TREK!

So with Jaren's buddy Chase in town we have done a lot this last week. Since his is living in California and only gets out here every couple of months we thoroughly take advantage of his visits. One of the nights we went out to Texas Roadhouse and then went to the new Star Trek movie, which by the way was really good. We had tons of fun...

Cleaning...shooting...and just plain redneckedness...

So two weekends ago Jaren and his buddies decided to do this service project that they have been planning on doing for a long time. The gravel pit where we go shooting has become a dump pit for the lazy people of Tooele County who take junk out there to shoot and then leave it there. There was everything from car windshields, to rubbermaid containers, boxes, pallets, dishwashers, etc. It was awful. So in an effort to keep it from getting closed we decided to give it a little face lift. Now I know this should be the other way, but I have a hard time uploading pictures onto here in the right order.

Before

After we did the dirty work we decided to have a little fun and do some shooting. Here are a couple of pictures of Jaren and I shooting his AR-15, his baby. This is Jaren's favorite gun.

After the shooting and everything we ended the day with a big bon-fire to burn a lot of the stuff that was burnable...and to roast marshmallows and such.

So for those of you who are from Grantsville you know how big Prom is. It is the event of the Spring in Grantsville. And the talk of the high school all spring is who is going with who, who is promenading with who, etc. Well the hunt has started earlier today. Prom 2009 hasn't even been over for a month and the girls of the class of 2011 are already on a man hunt. It's a race to ask somebody so you get somebody good before they're all gone.

So about two weeks ago my little brother Josh got asked to Promenade and he has been harassing me to figure out how to answer her, (because of course you have to do something cutesy) and so today when he was in Salt Lake we finally did it.

So here it is...

Part One: Answer her to say YES he would promenade with her.

Part Two: To kill two birds with one stone, Ask her to Prom as well.

Bag #1 Flowers $20.00 Inside is a "corsage" I made out of fake flowers.

Bag #2 Pictures $30.00 Inside the bag is a disposable camera.


Bag # 3 Hot Wheels $100.00 Inside is a hot wheels car.

Bag #4 The big question!

Inside the last one is a picture of Josh giving two thumbs up with a sign that says "Priceless."

This totally reminded me of being in High School, and oh do I not miss it. :)

Well...apparently its still Christmas.

I obviously am not doing too well at this blog stuff. It's still Christmas here on our blog, even though in the real world it is really almost May. Things are still going great with Jaren and I. We have had a great spring. We got to go to Disneyland with the Bracken's for spring break. It is also almost the end of the semester, which is great for me! I am ready for a break! We've gone to Jazz games, played in Mesquite, I've become obsessed with this season of Dancing with the Stars, just lots of exciting (not so much) things in our world!
