Wife...

My sister LOVES to pretend to be animals. She is constantly acting like some animal. She even has a jump rope that she uses as a monkey tail. One day she was playing with her friend and he wanted to play house but she wanted to play dogs. My mom said that he could play house and have a pet dog. Then he said, "I DON'T WANT A DOG! I WANT A WIFE!" Hopefully she will want to be a wife more than an animal some day!

27 years old...

My birthday started off with Thomas surprising me at work with beautiful flowers and chocolate roasted almonds! My coworker came in and said, "A guy named Thomas is here for you." I said, "Why is my husband here?!" I was super excited! She said, "He never told me that he was your husband. He's in trouble!" After I went out to see him she walked by and said, "Don't kiss him until I get by. That's gross!" Haha!

My coworkers took me out to lunch! They are awesome! We went to Olive Garden! After lunch I worked with one of my favorite kids. He makes me super happy! The highlight of my hour and a half with him was when I opened my water bottle and it made a popping sound. He started laughing and asked to do it again. Love it!

I worked with my music therapy clients that afternoon and it was amazing! They make me happy!

When I got home Thomas greeted me at the door with a kiss! Then he told me that my cake was in the kitchen but he didn't know how to make frosting. He said that he tried but he didn't know what went wrong. I saw the frosting...he just forgot to put milk in it! He started to put the frosting on the cake, but he looked distressed, so I offered to help him. 

When we were done we went to my friend's house. My friend's decorated the house and made me lasagna! They didn't have candles so they put a sparkler in the cake. Good times! We also had a mini photo shoot :) Thomas passed out on the couch soon after the cake. Night shifts are getting to him...

Salsa, Onion Harvest, and Denver the Last Dinosaur...

Today Thomas and I went to my parents' house today and made more salsa!!!!!!!!!! We also went on an onion harvest adventure while the salsa was cooking.

My sister, her friend, Thomas, and I rode in the semi with my dad. It had a bunk bed!

I was super impressed with my dad's driving skills when he drove between these things.

The onion shed.

They loved the tiny window at the top of the truck.

My dad!

We took pictures to pass the time while waiting to unload!

My dad backed the trailer into the shed using the flashlights that the guys inside had to guide him. 

I've never seen so many onions in one place! 

It was fun seeing everything and hanging out with my dad! I haven't seen him much since harvest started. It will be done on Monday though!

Tonight I watched Denver the Last Dinosaur with my sisters.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE as a kid. I even had a shirt that my mom eventually threw away (while I cried) because there was barely anything left of it. It's super exciting that my sisters love it too!

Salsa...

Last Saturday Thomas and I went to my parents' house to make salsa! Before I got married my mom always let me have salsa. Now she expects me to help her make it...what?!? I'm addicted to my mom's salsa though, so there wasn't a choice. One time I ate half a jar in one sitting and then decided that maybe I should let Thomas have some. It sat in the fridge for 3 days and he didn't even touch it. Of course I ate it after 3 days. He came home and said, "Why did you eat all the salsa? I wanted some." Seriously?!? You can't leave salsa in the fridge for 3 days and expect me not to eat it. 

We started the day out right with donuts from M&W. It must have been donut day or something because we stood in line with three people ahead of us and there were three people behind us. They even ran out of plain donuts!

I forgot to take a picture of the finished project because it got done so late! I forgot that salsa took so long to cook. I'm excited to finally have some again!

Wedding Weekend...

We went to Salt Lake for Lacie's wedding. We got done there on Thursday night and went to the temple! I've never been inside the Salt Lake Temple...it was great! After the temple we went to Wendy's to see Lacie!!!!!!! Before she got there we got some food. We tried eating super healthy all day and we were STARVING, so we got a pretzel bun cheeseburger and chicken sandwich! Delicious! 

Thomas liked the fries!

 We got to the temple bright and early! We took a few pictures in front of the doors while we waited for Lacie and Mike to come out after the ceremony.

We went to an organ recital while we were waiting for the luncheon to start!

The reception was great, except that Thomas got a bloody nose! We took a picture with my favorite fellow bridesmaid, Kodie! Lacie and her met on their mission and I was super jealous of her because I thought she was taking my place in Lacie's life! She's fantastic!

 On Saturday we hung out with my cousins and aunt and uncle. We went to my cousin's son's soccer game, his sister liked kicking the ball more than he did!

Today we went to Music and the Spoken word in the tabernacle. The choir and orchestra were amazing! Definitely worth waking up early!

We also took a tour of the Conference Center. An 80-year-old man was our tour guide! He was great!

Moving Day...

Thomas and I finally moved!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our new apartment is bigger and cheaper! We have accumulated way too much stuff in our short marriage!

While we were waiting for people to come and help us we changed my license plates...very sad day!

Now we need to find the motivation to unpack all of our boxes!
