Making things...

I finally finished my board I was making. Ya me!!!

The saying I did on this board was yet again from something that my husband Adam said to me one night...He said, "I remember falling in love with you, and I do again every day." When he told me this I was looking for a saying to hang in our bedroom and this fit perfectly. Now each day I wake up I can look at it and remember that he fell in love with me and it does it over and over again.

Here's another little saying he said to me while we were dating. I was texting him late at night and I felt bad that I was keeping him up because he had to get up the next morning and go to work. I told him that I better let him go so he could get some sleep and get up in the morning...He then sent this response...I could go to sleep and maybe have a good dream or I could talk to you which is a dream come true...I love it so much that I ended up putting on the board that we used as center pieces at our wedding reception.

I love Adam so much, and he is always surprising me. Last week he stayed late at work and came home with this.

Temple Square

Every year it seems I go up to Temple square to see the lights. I love going there with my family, it's a wonderful time to think about the birth of Christ and what he has done for me in my life. This year a different story, I got to go with Adam! Our friends Hope and Jake came along with us. After getting to Salt Lake it took us another 40 minutes to find a parking spot.ugh...oops I just got side tracked. Anyway Jake and Hope are becoming more active in the church now, and have the goal of being sealed in the temple with their new baby girl(who should be coming any day now)! Jake not having gone to church since he was 14 is really interested in everything, so naturally Adam and I get to be missionaries. It was a lot of fun for us to be of help to both Jake and Hope.

Christmas time is here....

Christmas is such a fun time to spend with family and friends. This year is even better because I have a wonderful husband to spend it with.:) I was so excited to put up our the little Christmas decoration we have, we put up everything we had on Friday the day after Thanksgiving. It was so much fun to do.
Our Tree

Something else new this year that neither Adam or I have ever tried is we bought actual ribbon for our presents. They look so pretty under our tree, it makes me feel like our tree came out of a movie or something. It's picture perfect. I'm so proud of myself I made a couple decoration for Christmas...
The first was this sign that says Christmas

The second was our wreath...I went to Roberts on Black Friday and got the wreath and everything to make it with along with some other stuff all for 60% off...It was awesome.:)
