Spring is here! (sort of)

When she saw this stuffed dog she just had to have it! It looks just like Max, so she wouldn't let go of it! Thanks for giving it to her Natalie!
















































Just out on a car ride to calm her down... looks like it worked.





It was so sunny and warm we decided to go out and blow some bubbles and enjoy the sunshine! She looks so adorable!
















































One day Charlee and I went out to work in the flower garden and at first she was helping me, but I guess she worked too hard! Next thing I knew she was laying down in the most awkward position you could think of. Had to get it on camera.
































Now I have a professional taste tester. She loves when I make cookies! I guess the messier she gets the better the cookies are:) These must have been pretty dang good!

Charlee's 1st Birthday!!























































































I can't believe my little baby girl is a year now! She grew up before I knew it, and is still getting bigger by the minute. I attempted to make her birthday cake and I'm not sure how good it tasted, but I think it turned out pretty dang cute. And by the mess she made I think she liked it!!

Horse Back Riding






















We have a super cute lady in our neighborhood, who has a bunch of horses, and she invited us to come over and ride them. It was still pretty cold out, but I think even Charlee had a good time riding her pony.

Valentines Day

















This Valentines Day was so much fun! First we made valentines day boxes, like I did in elementary, and we each made or bought a card for every day from the 1st of February to the 14th. Then, we decided to stay in and make a dinner we have never made before, so we went and picked out some lobster, read the directions, and prayed it worked out alright. We also tried to make chocolate covered strawberries and surprisingly it was all very good! We had a picnic in the front room with candles (battery powered for Charlee's protection) and opened our boxes and read all the cards we gave each other. It was kind of cheesy but romantic!

4th Anniversary















































































This year we decited to try something different for our anniversary, so we went up to La Caille for dinner. It was fun, but for us it is a once in a lifetime event. The food was good, but not what we are use to (super fancy). I can't remember the last time I felt so out of place, and not knowing how to eat "properly"! But they did have really cool decorations as you can see in the pictures, but my favorite has to be the fat dancing girls as ornaments on the christmas tree. Bryan, thanks for a night I am sure never to forget! Love you babe.

Temple Square and Sundance






























Some of my favorite things to do in winter is Snowboarding, visiting Temple Square and Sundance, and this year I was able to go do all three. I love all the beautiful lights at Temple Square, it has such a magical feeling with all the snow, being bundled up and cuddled up to your sweetie! The last 3 years we have had my work party at Sundance so Bryan and I went early to really take the whole thing in, then we had an amazing dinner on top of that! What a perfect evening.
