1st Anniversary & a Birthday!!

March has turned into a very busy month for us. March includes mom's birthday, Harris' birthday, Hana's birthday, Marcie's birthday, and our anniversary (not to mention midterms!).  H said if we have a kid we have to make sure that he/she will not be born in March! 

Last Friday was Mama Jill's Birthday. We were lucky enough to snag some tickets to a pre-opening dinner for the new Cheesecake Factory at City Creek. So H and I took mom and Nan out for her birthday dinner.

To celebrate our ONE YEAR anniversary H and I went up to Midway to spend the night at an awesome B&B: Johnson Mill. It was so nice to relax and get a mini vacation from normal life. I still cannot believe that we have been married an entire year. It seems like just yesterday we were getting ready for the wedding. Where does the time go?!?! I can say that this has been the best year of my life! 

Driving Up to Midway (this is the face that he gives me when I tell him to smile)!!

Johnson Mill. Lovely.

The loft in our room. If I ever build a house I want a "reading loft".

Dinner- best churros ever!

One year ago, on March 18th, 2011, I married the most wonderful man in the world.
 I fall more in love with him every day.
He is my best friend.
He knows me and he gets me.
He makes me smile.
He makes me happier than I ever imagined I could be.
 I love my husband and he loves me.

I can't wait to see what the next year holds for us...

Our Weekend via iPhone Pics

Here is a little glimpse into what we did this weekend... via iPhone pics (that is now fixed and as good as new!)....

Friday was Baby Kinley's 1st Birthday! Her amazing momma (my cousin, Chantal) hosted such a cute party
for her with all the hot pink a lil' princess would want!

Saturday the Hubs and I went to Eva with our friends.
Nine of us crammed into a table meant for six- ha! But it was a good way for everyone to participate in the conversation... and Eva's flat bread is TO DIE!!

Sunday I decided to be ambitious in the kitchen and I made Cake Pops for the first time!
I am throwing a few showers this spring and want to add these to the menu, but I needed to make sure that I could actually do it. And If I do say so myself- they turned out pretty dang yummy!

New Blog Layout & Laguna Beach

New Blog Layout

So I was really board with my blog so I decided to redo it. I figured it would be easy and quick... then I started looking at other people's layouts, graphics, fonts and before I knew it 2 hours had passed and all I had accomplished was changing the font and rearranging the gadgets.... Let me just say that I have a new appreciation of anyone that does blog/website and graphic design. I didn't even have to re-code anything and it still took me forever!

Then I decided to make my own banner... This very simple banner that you see at the top of my page took me ANOTHER 2 HOURS!!!!  I think it is safe to say that I know why people PAY other people to do this for them! Well so far I like the changes I made, but of course I am not done.... I'll probably have to take another 4 hours to finish it!

Laguna Beach

Harris and I got to go to Southern California a few weeks ago. We got to spend a few days on the beach just surrounded by beauty! It was so nice to get out of the cold, if only for a little while!



Beautiful beach 30 seconds from the house

Jazz Game and Superbowl!!!

This last weekend was so much fun! Friday night we went to Wise Guys with our cute friends Felly and Greg and saw Ryan Hamilton- he is hilarious! 

Saturday we went to the Jazz vs. Lakers game and it was awesome. Jazz kicked some L.A. Laker butt! It was a good game because it was back and forth all night and we got to see a fist fight up close and personal! Yup that's right, Jazz Fan vs. Laker Fan got in a fist fight 2 rows in front of us! Nutty! 

... oh and I got a churro which made the game all that much better! 

Then we had a chill Superbowl Sunday with the fam. It was fun just to hang out in our PJ's and eat junk food all day. Too bad the Patriots lost, but lets be honest Tom Brady still went home to Gisele, who's the real winner here???

Me and my baby! Go Jazz!

Harris in is 49ers jersey- ya babe we all wish they were there! 

Superbowl Sunday!!! Love it!
