The MTC

So on Wednesday we sent our missionary off. It was a great day. Sad, but great. Of course we all cried, even the boys, but we are so proud of Jason and are so excited for the experiences he will witness and the influence he can be in Florida. Godspeed Elder!

This just goes to prove I am the short one of the family. My goal is to grow as tall as J before he gets home.....
What a great example. Big brother to little brother.

This is my favorite of J. This pictures illustrates his personality that Florida will love!



Fun family outside ready to let J go for just a little while.



In the car on the way to the MTC. J was really nervous but excited.

Relief Society SUPER SATURDAY!




So on Saturday we had our Super Saturday with the Relief Society. I just had to publish some pictures of these cute crafts I made because as all of you know, I am not very crafty at all so when I have some success, I HAVE to show it off. We made these JOY blocks and the cute vinyl lettering tiles. And yes, I know the lettering on the tile is a little crooked, Ryan has already made fun of me. But I am still very proud of myself!

Tis the Season....











Ok, so it officially feels like Christmas with a little snow on the ground. Here are a couple of pictures of my awesome husband by our beautiful christmas tree and some other ones as well. Merry Christmas! Sorry, my house is a little messy but I just love pictures of my tree!

And yes, SANTA IS REAL!

I just wanted to wish my brother a very happy birthday today! He is turning 26. Man he is getting old! If you talk to him, don't forget to make fun of how old he is getting. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!!

Reunion!

Last night I got together with some of my friends I have not seen in a very long time and they stated I needed to blog more. And that I need to add pictures to my blog, well the truth is when I figure out how to add pictures I will! Hehehehe, anywho, it was great to see them and to plan our friend's baby shower. It is going to be awesome to see everyone again on Saturday. I can not wait! I am so excited for Thanksgiving this week. It is the only time where I can pig out and not feel bad about it. Wait, when do I ever feel bad for pigging out???? Eh, who knows. Anywho, I am also excited to go shopping on black friday at four in the morning. Anyone wanna go with me? It will be great. So this blog is for Nicole and Melissa. I hope you enjoy!

Give Thanks!

It is November and I can't believe it! I am so excited for Thanksgiving. We are going with my family this Thanksgiving and cooking the biggest, most fabulous dinner ever! This is my one excuse to pig out and I am going to take full advantage of that. Ryan and I are still busy with school and work. He is doing well getting great grades and I am chugging along with work. I can't wait to go back to school. I am so excited, my friends and I are throwing Susan a baby shower at the end of the month. It is going to be a blast. Welp, bye

Halloween is approaching!!!!

Well, since I have not blogged since September I felt it only necessary to blog in October. We are both still working and Ryan still doing the whole school thing. Yesterday we had Nekku and her mom over for dinner and Ryan cooked it. It was really good. It was good to see Sanna again. Ryan's birthday is coming up so if anyone has suggestions for presents let me know. I am at a loss. I am tired of the same 'ol clothes or shoes thing. Halloween is almost here! I love this holiday. Decorating my apartment was lots of fun. Well, bye

Ok, so since it seems to be the year of pregnancies, marriages, engagements and so on...I have an announcement...I am not pregnant! I am not engaged, I am married, but we all knew that. I just wanted to clear that up so everyone knew. Hehehe, just kidding, Congratulations to all those of my good buddies you are expecting. I am very excited for you! Susan (friend) I am definitely going to be a good example for your child. He/she will learns lots from me. Can you tell that I have nothing to blog about but my thoughts...I know....boring. Um, I am still working and Ryan is still going to school. That is about it. Ryan's brother got his mission call. He is going to Florida in December. He is super stoked. My cousin, Justin, just left for his mission last week to New Jersey. I am very excited for them both. Welp, big gulps huh...see ya later!

Hey Everyone! Well, it is just me again. Just wanted everyone to know that Ryan's cousin, JoAnna, had her baby Monday night. He is so dang cute! His name is Gage Ryan Bingham. (No sadly he is not named after my bubby but we just tell people he is). We was seven pounds and something ounces. And it was hilarious to watch Cory change his diaper! We were all laughing so hard. Let's just say Gage's new nickname by his father is "you little s*#!" I hope all is going well out there and everyone is doing great!

Ok all! So I could not figure out how to use this dang blog. I have had many threats against my life saying that if I did not blog soon, bad things might happen. So here is another blog. I will figure out how to do pictures later. Ryan just started school again and I am just the boring old wife that works. I am so jealous of everyone going back to school. I wanna go back so freaking bad! Um, that is about it. Nothing is happening in our lives that is that exciting. Oh yea, we just celebrated our one year anniversary! Man, I can't believe that has gone by so fast. It seems like yesterday we got married. Welp, can't think of anything else to say. I hope that this satisfies those of you who made threats against my life!

Hey All! This is our first blog ever! We'll see if I can handle this kind of technology. Well, Ryan is going to school this summer and he is just loving it! (can you sense the sarcasm). He is still working at LW"s Truck Stop working his way up to Cashier Extrordaniare. I am working at Uinta Academy (a residential treatment center) as a youth counselor and yes, I am still at the Law Office. That is our life. Hope your is more exciting!
