Many Thanks!!

We know this is a little late but we wanted to thank everyone that helped us with the move!! We had so many people offer to help us carry things up the several flights of stairs and donate furniture to us. We love love love the new place!! It's not the cutest thing in the world but we feel very at home here and love being so close to work and school. Again, thank you so much for your help during this hectic time. We really appreciate it and love you all!

Matt and I got engaged! To celebrate we spent the night at Cucina Toscana. It was the perfect atmosphere to reminisce about this last year together. We have done some fabulous things!! Matt, I love you and thanks for a memorable evening!

New York









This past weekend the girls took a trip to New York City!! (we missed you dearly Andrea) How dreamy to be in such a fabulous city with a group of delightful girls. We did many fun things: Soho, yummy restaurants, some went to museums and broadway plays, vintage shopping, and just wandering around. We also ran into Keri Russell and followed her around for about 30 minutes. Anyways, it was such a fun trip!! We have decided to make it a yearly event. Thanks to Pat and Maddie for planning this and thanks for the fun weekend everyone!!
*** Matthew, I missed you dearly also!!! :)

As Of Late....

Life has been pretty crazy!! Matt and I take full advantage of weekends this semester since we are so busy during the week and hardly ever speak let alone do anything fun. Here are some things that we've done the last couple weekends...
Multiling Company Party...Maddie won Miss Congeniality. She's super cool. :)


We also celebrated Cole's 3rd birthday!! We had fun swimming and eating pizza, and cake.


Last weekend we made bombs. (ya) Matt has never been so hyper/giddy ever since I've known him. We went to an old mine about 20 minutes south of Provo that is over 700 yards deep. There is a big crate over the hole that you can stand on and directly look down into the darkness. Crazy!! Matt and his friends filled several bottles with gasoline, started them on fire and we'd all watch them go down down down. It was actually quite cool and amazing watching it drop for like 5 minutes. Ok..exaggeration. But it did drop forever. (yes, we're old enough to be married)




The last piece of good news is....WE'RE MOVING!!!!
We are very grateful for the opportunity we have had to live at Granny's house. It really helped us get started and we've made many great memories in this house. However, we decided that we were ready to buy furniture, pay utility bills, have something really small, and try it on our own! Crazy!?! I don't know yet...but I couldn't be more excited for the new place!! We signed the papers on Monday and literally, no exaggeration here, I haven't gotten a good nights sleep since. I'm kept awake thinking of what I'm going to do with the small space we have. How I'm going to hang our pictures, where we are going to sit (thanks to Dru, we are new owners of really cute couches), and how we are going to make it uniquely ours. See pictures of the complex here...

Don't mind the rent prices. We got a great deal and of course aren't paying that much. Oh ya...did I mention it has a pool, hot tub, and work out room?? Wahoo!! More pictures to come.

Be My Valentine

Matt and I had a delightful valentine's day. He offered to be in charge of planning the whole day. I definitely didn't complain...We also decided that we wouldn't do any cleaning, homework, laundry, or any other normal Saturday activities. It was so fun to just hang out all day!! I have a horrible semester (I'm taking anatomy along with 4 other classes and I'm hating every minute of it) so to just relax and have an excuse to be lazy was such a treat.






Matt, thanks for creating such a fabulous day filled with relaxation and eating. You couldn't have done a better job. :)
We hope you all had a happy valentine's day!
