Recap of 2010 Since November 12th

Well I have been scolded by family and friends that blogging is going to have to be updated a little bit more than every three months. I am shooting for every week or every other week. It depends on how exciting our lives are.

So 2010 was probably the best I have had in my life. I mean how can you top getting married? Mike and I were sealed for time and all eternity on November 12th, 2010. The weather was gorgeous and sunny. My hair and make up was perfect. The reception was perfect. We are truly blessed to have so many people in our lives who could be there to show their love and support for us.

One of the reasons why I haven't posted about our wedding is because I don't have any pictures from the wedding. But here is the one picture that perfectly describes our wedding day.
It's true pictures can say a whole lot more than words. I am obsessed with this picture!

After our wedding we headed down to Las Vegas on a road trip for our honeymoon. It was a blast and had the perfect amount of alone time and family time. The reception was designed and headed by Mike's amazing sister Sarah! It was great and we had a blast at the reception in Vegas too. We headed back to Washington through a snow storm and spun out on our way to Boise. We finally made it safe and sound back to Washington on the 22nd. Mike and I both headed back to work at Spanky's and Borders. We worked for a couple weeks before our next road trip to Vegas for Christmas.

We spent our last Sunday in Washington with my family celebrating Christmas a little bit early with roast beef, mashed potato's, gravy, cinnamon rolls, present opening, and watching the classic, White Christmas. We loved that night with my family. We headed out to Yuba City on Tuesday morning which I was sad about because I miss the funeral of Peggy Glem. One of the most influential woman in my life who had just suddenly passed away that previous Saturday.

Peggy Glem is truly and amazing woman who has blessed the lives of so many women like myself.

Well from Yuba City we headed to Vegas to start the Christmas celebration all over again. We had a great time with Mike's family. We had great food. I tried two new kinds of jello. We opened presents. We played Settlers of Catan. We saw the movie True Grit as well as the new Chronicles of Narnia movie. Mike went snowboarding and played volleyball. Both of which he has been dying to do since we moved to Washington in July.

Then we had family pictures in Vegas. Mike and I got to be one of the last families because we didn't have kids which was fine. Mike and I just read our books. We left for Rexburg on Thursday and moved into our apartment on Friday. Dad drove all the way from Washington to drop off our stuff so we could move into our apartment. We are so grateful for his sacrifice to do that. It was not easy and he got stuck in Boise on the way back because of road closures. I love my dad!

Mike and I spent New Years Eve unpacking and moving in. I was sick and asleep before midnight. I know, lame. It has been so fun moving in and setting up our first home together. I love our apartment. Here are some pictures of the moving in process:




Mike was a trooper and put together a book shelf and the shelf storage things that goes over the toilet in the bathroom. My favorite part was the Target and the Bed, Bath, and Beyond shopping spree which was great! We finally got to spend all of our gift cards!!! Loved it! I will post more pictures of our apartment once it is set up and decorated. School starts on Tuesday which I am very excited about.

So my New Year's resolution? Blog more. Take more pictures. Exercise. Wish me Luck.
