The past 3 years

So I thought I'd do a quick recap of the events that have happened over the past 3 years. I realize I clearly should've just started this blog 3 years ago so I wouldn't have to do that, but I'm a procrastinator and am just doing it now.  Brace yourselves, this is about to be a lot of information and pictures in just one post.  Information and Picture overload starts now...

Honeymoon: We went to Las Vegas, NV and San Diego, CA. It was wonderful. We planned to do Sea World, San Diego Zoo, The Wild Animal Kingdom, plus the beach, and a quick temple visit. What were we thinking?? This was so many things to do! Honestly, we didn’t really plan our Honeymoon very well. We stayed in a different hotel every night except 2 because we hadn’t even booked hotels before going. Crazy? Yes, but it makes for a fun story and fun memories. 





Mackay's 23rd, 24th, & 25th birthdays: For his 23rd I did really good and surprised him with a night stay at my parents timeshare in Park City. The  next birthday we went up to Park City again for the day, I had a great plan to do the Alpine Slide...little did I know it was closed..so we ended up watching some pro snowboarders do cool tricks into a pool. 25th birthday was for sure his most lame. I was sick and not feeling creative. So I think we just did presents and cake.

HALLOWEEN: The first year I made us dress up just so I could take pictures and document it. The second year we went to a fun Halloween party up in Logan put on by one of my best friends Shayly. Third year we again dressed up just for the pictures/work for me and enjoyed a little party in my parents drive way.

My birthdays have been great! Mackay has spoiled me like crazy and always plans something so fun. If you notice we go to Tucanos for dinner every year, I love that place!

THANKSGIVING: I love Thanksgiving and we've been so blessed to have some amazing thanksgivings. We got to spend our first thanksgiving with my side because it was my brothers last thanksgiving before going on his mission. The next was at the Lynchs, and then this last Thanksgiving we were back with my family.

CHRISTMAS: The favorite holiday, Christmas! We've had some amazing Christmas'. We've been so blessed to be around family every Christmas. I just love this holiday and everything about it. There is so much going on with family and friends it makes for such wonderful memories. Mackay's a really good sport and lets us stay the night at my parents every Christmas eve so we can wake up Christmas morning and see what Santa brought us!

ARE YOU BORED YET??? I AM! THIS IS A LOT LONGER/HARDER THEN I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE!!! 
I know this is way too much information and pictures but honestly it's mostly just for me to look back on so I really apologize!

Valentines Day: We've been gone almost every Valentines Day to my sister Kristine's soccer tournaments. Even when we were dating we went. So most of these pictures are from St. George and Mesquite.

EASTER: We always spend time with both families for Easter. My family always finds their Easter baskets on Saturday so we can focus on Christ on Sunday. Mackay's family always dies eggs and then we roll them down the hill to remember Christ.
2010: Pictures have gone missing...I'll hopefully find them again some day!

Addie's first Easter!!! :)



Well, these were all the major holidays so I figured they were some of the most important things to post. I know your probably wondering why I'm still typing but I missed a few crucial things that happened during these past 3 years. October 27, 2010 my brother Jared left on his mission to Montevideo, Uruguay. He comes home in just 2 short months!! In June 2011 my sister Melissa graduated from Pleasant Grove High School. Also, as maybe some of you noticed through these pictures I at times started growing...larger...mostly in the tummy. In June 2011 we got pregnant :) and on March 14, 2012  we had our beautiful baby girl Addison. 
Here are a few pictures from these crucial events.













Finally done! I really am sorry this was so long and so boring. I'd bet this is probably the longest blog post known to man. Next time I promise to keep it a lot shorter and a lot sweeter! Hope you enjoyed the ride through the past 3 years of our lives.
