In the beginning....


Okay so I thought I better follow the trend that so many are doing of blogging :)
Since I am such a fan of documenting everything possible it was probably just a matter of time... So a little about us....

This is totally a cliff note scenario but really who needs all the details anyways :)

Jim and I met up in Logan, Utah and were married in July of 1998. Our wedding day was a very hot day for anyone who can remember.
Even before Jim and I dated I knew he was a good guy. During the winter of 1997 he had helped me out of my car one day so I would not slip on the ice. Well a few weeks later I was going to church and happened to be wearing the same shoes and he commented they were the same ones I was wearing the day he helped me out of the car. I thought that was cute.
He proposed by teaching me how to fly fish.
A month after we were married we left every comfort zone we had and moved to Phoenix, AZ. I think those were some of the hardest and best years of our marriage.

In fall of 2000 we moved back to Holladay, UT and lived there until March of 2002 when we bought our first house in Sugarhouse, UT. We spent five great years there and five years of constant house projects.


In June of 2007 we moved into our house in Sandy. It is so nice to be able to stretch out and have room for the kids to play.

Speaking of kids- Ethan was born in April 2002 and is 5 1/2 right now. He has officially started the public school system with kindergarten. Ethan is so into "eye" cars right now. Those are hot wheel cars from the car movie.

Lizzie was born in February 2004 and is 3 1/2. Being a 3 1/2 little girl means she can be the cutest thing in the world and then take a drastic change very quickly. She likes to help me work on my patience. She really likes princesses, and my little ponies.

We have two babies cooking in the mom oven right now trying to get as big as possible. We are excited to meet them. They are due April 1st but most likely will come before then (but not too soon.)

I think it is funny how people can sum up over 9 years of their life in a little blurb but hey there you go.
