Newly Weds

Some times I get really down on myself..

Last night I attempted dinner.. it would have been sooo good if I HADNT followed the timing directions.. The chicken ended up being burned and tasted funny. At least the salad was good and the rice was good. I learned that i like ranch on my rice too so that was exciting! And at least the apartment was finally clean! I am soo grateful that i had the energy to finally clean out the front room..

Today I have work and school and then Tim and I HAVE to finish our Thank you cards.. Its important for everyone to know how truly thankful we are...

I Love my Husband!! He always reassures me that he loves me and wants me to be happy! I am grateful for his hard work and understanding!  And I LOVE our little apartment.. I will post a few pictures soon! :)

Sweet Married life

I can not even begin to express how happy, and thankful I am!

I had a fantastic weekend with friends and family! I married my best friend and was blessed by friends all over the world!

Thank you to everyone who has supported Tim and I! We cannot begin to express our gratitude for your kindness!

On Sunday we opened prezzies over at my mums house with Tim and my parents! What a haul!! I am so grateful that we have friends who were willing to help us start our home and family! Our poor apartment might explode though... Today I just couldnt take it any long So I started cleaning and putting things away! Our little apartment is full of goodies and finally looking homely!

Today I cut up chicken and mixed up a bbq sauce in my crock pot! I can't wait to make dinner for my husband! I am SOOOOO excited!  I am beginning to feel like a real wife. I did laundry, cleaned the kitchen and the front room and cooked! I can't believe how tired i am! But truly i wouldn't have it any other way! I love my Timmy!

This sunday will be our first sunday in a family ward as Husband and Wife.. I am slightly nervous for Relief Society, but I LOVED RS on the Mish.. so i really am looking forward to it, I'm just nervous to meet new people..

Well I'm off to finish some laundry and then go pick up my husband! Have a wonderful day and be grateful for all that you have!

The Countdown continues!

LISTEN UP PEOPLE!!!

THERE ARE ONLY 11 DAYS LEFT TILL THE BIG DAY!!!!!

I know.. I can't even believe it..

Last Saturday Tim and I and his parents went to the Temple for Tim to receive his Endowments.. What a wonderful day that was! Yesterday I gave a talk on Sealing Power.. it was something that i really needed to study.. :)

Next sunday I have to sing.. and Tim has to speak and it will be our last sunday as singles.. YEEEEHAWWWW!!!! :D HAHA can you tell i am excited! Although I am not excited to go to church at 9 am.. lame sauce. Oh well. at least its only for 2 months.. and then hopefully my ward in Utah wont be so early.. Heres to hoping!

Congratulations To our friends Chelsey and Jacob John on their engagement and our friends Devin and Kristi! We are very excited for you and may God bless you on your journey to Eternity! LOVE YOU!!

Date Night

Friday(10/1/10) was the first Friday night I have had off with out any obligations in a long time! So Tim and I went on a much needed date! :) of course it turned into a double date, and then a triple date! It was really nice!

At first Tim and I got together and decided where to eat! We chose Olive Garden!

We get there and are waiting for our table to be ready and we are enjoying the nice weather, when an older Gentleman (grandpa) came by and said "Whats going on here!?" hahaha! he was so adorable that it took us by surprise! We responded with "Enjoying the nice weather.." he caught us so mid-sentence that we couldn't come up with anything whitty! But oh was he adorable..

So our Table is ready, and they seat us. We order our drinks (Sprite with lemon for me, Water for Tim) and Tim's phone rings.. Knowing that we are hanging out with Devin and Kristi, Markie and Jake, I'm not surprised. However, we invited Devin and Kristi to come eat dinner with us! It was really nice to have us all there and laughing! First Tim ordered a really great appetizer but I can't think of the name.. here is a picture of it!

Then we all ordered our meals! Tim and I split a chicken broccoli pasta thing! It was in a garlic based sauce and was soo good!

It also came with salad!

After Dinner we ventured over to Party City to kill time while waiting for Markie and Jake to finish dinner.. After that we ventured over to Toys R Us! The boys enjoyed being kids and we walked around and saw some great things!

After we all crammed into Markies little car to get dropped off at our respective cars, We decided to go to Tim's (and my future) apt to play Phase Ten! it was fun at first but got boring quickly.. we sat around telling stories and really enjoying each others company!

Overall it was a really needed date night and a great chance for everyone to get together again and enjoy and evening together, even if we didn't get to go and check out the stars.. :)
