This cracks me up! So true... it was actually filmed in St G too.

Christmas 2009

Christmas has past and Jarvy and I had a good one. We got to spend Christmas with our nieces so that made it extra fun! We aren't very good about taking our camera anywhere so we didn't get any pictures of them...

Christmas Eve, we met the fam at the temple to see the Christmas lights and look at the nativity. We then had a really nice dinner at Jill's house. Christmas morning consisted of princess dress-ups, princess shoes, tinkerball movies, and tinkerbell panties! Jarvy and I filled each others stockings... Jarvy got his own Cutco hunting knife so now he can finally give his Dad's back! Jarvy got me a couple pairs of Modbe pants that I have been wanting, as well as a new garbage disposal! Only those who have used our old one truly understand what a huge improvement this will be in our house! Who knew one could be so excited about a garbage disposal?! Mark and Jill got us a doorknob for our house that isn't the ugly gold we have now... I am so excited to put it in!

Next weekend, I have work off and my fam will be back from Mexico, so we will be going to Huntington to celebrate Christmas with them. So I'm excited about that and to see them.



I'm so proud of these stockings... My Aunt Evone made mine when I was little and I love it! Monica and I decided we wanted to make one for our spouses and, one day, our kids. So I started making Jarvy's, then my Mom finished it for me. But I absolutely love it!



Jill hand painted this nativity for us one of the first Christmases we were married and this is the first year we could actually display it! I really love it lots!



Merry Christmas!

Sad news!

K! So the saddest thing ever... we got our new appliances and they are beautiful. We ran our dishwasher twice and found it was leaking water like crazy! Our wood floor was seeping up water! Aaaahh! Turns out, the guy who installed it didn't replace a tube or something that he should have. Sears won't cover the damage done to our floor because the guy is contracted from them. Long story short, the guy has to pay to replace our floors out of pocket!

Kinda sad for him, but I guess it was his own fault. So our next project is getting our floor replaced.

Merry Christmas to Me... early!

Jarvy and I decided to get new appliances for our kitchen for Christmas. Jarv battled the crowds on Black Friday to get some good deals on appliances and they were delivered the next week. I am so super excited about them!





Goodbye stinky dish washer, clicky oven, and latch on the fridge!

Halloween 2009

It's a little late... but for Halloween weekend, Jarvy and I spent some time with friends. One of our friends' family owns a lodge out in the middle of nowhere past Minorsville.

It is a blast! We went there last year too. This year, on Halloween night, we all dressed up. We also played some tennis and played lots of board games. It was a really fun time! Here are a few pics...













Our camera has been having issues... so try to ignore the weird flash and quality

Our yard!

I know you all have been waiting to hear an update on our yard... ok, maybe it is just me... but I am so proud to announce that Jarvy, along with so many helping hands (which, thank-you all who helped!), put sod in our yard today! I am so stinkin excited, I can barely stand it! This was our last big project on our fixer-upper house... for a long while anyways! Jarvy has been working super hard on it and it looks beautiful!





Aaahh! I just love it so much!

Senior Games are under way!

Last night Jarvy was a medical volunteer at the softball fields for the Huntsman Senior Games in St G. The games going on last night were the 65+ year old men! Anyways, Jarv ended up with 2 patients. One was a pitcher. He wore a mask and shin guards while he pitched. Well, these old guys were hitting the balls so hard, this pitcher got hit in the shin and his shin guard broke! Those old guys got some power! It may help they can use the Senior League bats like Ultra 2s and whatever, but seriously... I guess this catches my attention because I have a feeling, one day one of those old guys playing will be my cute Jarvy.


He came home in his volunteer shirt and I thought he looked pretty cute.

Melon Days

This last weekend, Jarvy and I met my fam in Green River for the big Melon Days celebration! Jarv was playing in the Melon Days softball tournament (I bet no one saw that one coming...) Jarvy's team ended up taking 4th place; they did really well. We aren't very good at takin pics, but here are a few...

Here's Kris, Dallin, and Jarvy in between games


Look how cute he is all done up in his softball clothes...


Wholy wind-up!

Jarvy has been working so hard to make our yard look more than a desolate wasteland! And here is the result of his hard work in the blistering heat...





I am super excited about it! And anyone who has seen our yard truly understands how much this little addition helps! I'm sure our neighbors sure appreciate it too!

Catchin up...

This post may be a little long...

So I wanted to post an updated pic of the final product of our Master Bathroom. I am so proud of Jarv and his work! I think it turned out really well. And I most definitely can't complain about finally being able to use my new jetted tub! Yay!





Also, a couple weekends ago, Jarvy and I went up to Spanish Fork to the big Rodeo! It was fun because I hadn't been to a rodeo in a while and we got to see our fun, crazy nieces! Haylee is 3 and super crazy and fun! The rodeo was a little nippy so we all wore jackets. I had a hoodie... well Haylee spent a good portion of the rodeo tightening my hood strings so there was just a little hole for my face and giggling... Then cute Mikayla is walking all over the place! I just love them so much and get so excited to see them!


Isn't that the cutest face ever?! Pure Innocence! If you only knew... And I'm not talking about Jarvy...

I also was able to spend a couple days at Girls' Camp this past week. That was a good time. I forget how much I liked Girls' Camp and the stinkiness of not showering! Love it! It was good to go and get to know the girls a little bit better. They all have their own personalities and sweet, individual spirits. I wasn't able to be there the whole time, but I was able to be there for the big devotional which made the whole trip completely worth it. It was really nice and I'm super glad I was able to go the little time I did!
