Well today is our anniversary! We have been married for 2 years now! Time really does go by quicker than you ever think it will! I am so grateful to have the husband that I do. He has always been supportive of me and works so hard to provide for the both of us. The video I posted is the video that he used to ask me to marry him. I still cry when I think about how cute it was when he asked me! We hiked table rock, but as we started to get close to the top there was a huge lightning storm, so I freaked out and told him we had to get off the mountain! The whole time we were getting close to the top and it was still sunny, he kept trying to get me to eat some of his cheeznips. I kept telling him I wasnt hungry yet. When I was dragging him down the mountain, he made me stop and said it would be safer to sit under a tree for a minute (haha) so I did and he pulled the cracker box out AGAIN and was telling me that I needed to eat to keep my energy for the way down. I finally decided to just eat some to make him happy. When I reached in the box there was a DVD that said "Watch me". I pulled the DVD out and he found his portable DVD player in his backpack and this is what I watched. After the DVD was over I pretty much knew what was going on. He pulled out the ring and asked me to marry him. It really was one of the most thoughtful and sweetest ways I have ever heard of someone being proposed to. (Even though we could have died in a lightning storm) Thank you for all that you do sweetheart! I love you so much and look forward to the next 50 years :)

Isn't it great to turn 8?
Well my little sister turned 8 on November 20 and was baptized on December 5th. I am so excited and proud of her for making the choice to be baptized. Watching her be baptized and confirmed brough back a lot of memories of my own baptism and the sweet feelings that are felt at that time. My Dad baptized her and Destry confirmed her. It was funny when she called Destry to ask him because she had been so nervous about it all day. It is funny to go to my parents house and watch her in action now. When my brother or sisters are teasing each other or my mom, she is quick to remind them that they need to choose the right! I love her so much and hope that the gospel can stay an important part of her life. I love you Teri! We are proud of the decision you made!
Puppies!
We went to the temple a few weeks ago and came home to 10 new puppies! We knew Marley was getting close to having them, but we werent sure when. She ended up having 8 females and 2 males and they are all black. They will be ready to leave in about a week or so. I am just hoping we can sell all of them. I guess we will see if this whole selling puppies thing is even worth it. I dont have any updated pictures of them, but I will get some on as soon as I can. They are so fun to watch! I wish they would just stay that cute forever!
The beginning of a LONG list of updates!
Alison killing a tree
Getting our tree
Harry chopping down the tree
The Girls
Me and my handsome hubby
Teri
Harry and JessAnyone who is seeing me post something new is probably going to drop dead since it has been a LONG time! School gets the best of me, but I really need to be better about keeping our blog current! (And for Amanda's sake, I promise to do better). The first set of pictures I have on my camera that havent been posted are ones from us looking for Christmas trees. Much to my Mom's dismay we went and got them a few weeks before Thanksgiving! This year my dad asked Destry and I to find him a nice tree because he was sick of getting "Charlie Brown" trees at the store. We loaded up my little sisters, brother and his girlfriend Jessica and went searching for the perfect tree! It was really fun to spend time with my siblings. I love every one of them and their different personalities. When we were looking for trees, Destry kept teasing Teri telling her that we were actually "hunting" the trees and if she saw one she needed to let him know so he could get out of the truck and shoot it. We had a lot of fun and finally found our trees up by Bishop Mountain.

Our Kids
These are our two kids. Bailey is our yellow lab and we got her on the 21st of Feburary. She's so smart and full of energy. Then our newest edition is Rugar our little black lab. We just got him on the 26th of April. He's definately more out spoken then Bailey is and doesn't let her push him around. That's all the kid's were going to have for now.
