Lalala Life is Wonderful!

Since our internet at our house is incredibly slow, I decided to use my on-campus time while Paul studies with friends to give a little update on our life.

My birthday was Sunday. I LOVED the many phone calls of singing families and kind wishes. Paul was the nicest husband a birthday girl could have. He woke me up to breakfast in bed. Crepes (my favorite!) and his specialty scrambled eggs. Then he showered me with some great (suprise) gifts. I had some pretty crazy morning hair (as a warning)...





We went to church, and afterwards went up to my parents house in Murray. My family was all there and we had some delicious food! Jeff, Jason, Mindy, Amari, Zander and Drake came over later for cake and ice cream. Zander wrote the greatest card- They made my day.

Besides my birthday, Paul went to Zion's one weekend with his Mom, Camie and Jeff. I stayed in Provo for a required lacrosse breakfast. I realized how lucky I am to be married, and got pretty lonely over the weekend.

We've been VERY busy with school, work, football games, lacrosse, tests, family gatherings, etc etc etc! But we've been grateful lately to live in a little tiny apartment and just get to be together.

One goal I have: take more pictures. I don't know why I have been a slacker on that lately. I just need to charge the batteries in my camera! Oh, I do have some great pictures from a beautiful drive we took one Saturday afternoon.

This is a little shot of our apartment.



Here is our pumpkin we did for FHE (thanks for helping Mark)!





I'm heading to Colorado this weekend to play CSU and CU in some lacrosse games. Paul is headed up to Idaho Falls for one last weekend with Jeff. I'm going to try to make it up there on Sunday morning to hear Jeff speak.

Life is crazy, but it's wonderful too.

He really loves it. i'm excited to get better at driving it (manuals can be tricky)
-But its a great car and we're way happy about it!

Welcome to Washington :)

Paul and I spent an AWESOME weekend in the beautiful state of Washington.
Paul served his mission here (his "back for one year" mark is next week).















A family that he helped to teach and baptize were sealed this weekend!!!
This is us with the Katende's They are so nice, and their girls are adorable.
They are wearing their sweet Ugandan clothes.





























(Mt. Rainer from an airplane...
the plan is to hike it next summer)

I loved meeting all the neat people in Puyallup and Lacey. I can tell Paul was the bomb missionary because everyone just loves him so stinking much.

We also got the chance to spend an afternoon in Seattle,














This is us with the Puget Sound.















This was the Fish and Chips we ate on Pier 66.















This is the new rage in Sunglasses. Apparently.















Lots of Marajuana Pride going on down there.















We went to Pike Place- and the famous Fish Market
however, we didn't go to the SeaHawks pre-season game... Paul was way sad.

We stayed with the Roberts- they are so kind and generous! They have lots of fun, cute kids.
It was such a great weekend :) It was even SUNNY!
