Happy Anniversary to us!


Two years ago today I was able to marry my best friend! I am so glad that I went with Vandy to South Dakota that one time many years ago.... :)

Anyways, I figured I'd update you some important that have happened and are happening in our lives since that wonderful day. This is mostly for my own benefit because sometimes I forget how blessed I am:

2009

  • We were sealed in the temple September 26, 2009
  • We moved into an apartment in Heartland Apartments in Rexburg, Idaho. We lived there until May of this year. 
  • I still love that little apartment even though we have moved...
  • I changed my minor officially to Culinary Arts and I LOVE it. 
  • We got to experience the wonderful world of "firsts." First Christmas, First argument....
2010
  • I did an internship at the Madison Public Library and Lyle did his first with JCPenney. 
  • I was put in the nursery in our ward and Lyle became the Sunday School Secretary. I miss "my" little ones! 
  • Lyle worked full time at JCPenney as the shoe manager and did classes full time. 
  • We continued to plug away at school. I did some fantastic culinary classes and we tried to help Lyle figure out what he wanted to emphasize or minor in with his degree. 
2011
  • Little Kemry, my favorite niece, was born in January. 
  • Last winter we did the IBC core together, it was a rough semester, but good to be together.
  • Lyle got his second (more official) internship with JCPenney and we lived in South Dakota for 10 weeks with his family. 
  • We decided to share a house with Vandy and Tyrel when we moved back. It's been fun. :)
  • We are living in Idaho Falls, I have a job at Kohl's and the David O. McKay library and Lyle is working 3 jobs! Yikes! (JCPenney, Theory11, and a Teachers assistant position). 
  • Kimberly is having a baby in just a few weeks. We think she should name him Howard.
  • My mom is finally calling herself grandma. 
  • We are going to be able to sign up for JCPenney insurance starting in October (not exciting), so next year we can start planning on having a baby and not worry about the insurance transition from school to Lyle's JCPenney job (VERY EXCITING)! 
  • We are a little bit plumper, a little bit crazier, a little bit closer to graduating, and a lot more in love. :)
So, while that list isn't super, super amazing, we have had a crazy busy couple of years. It has been wonderful though!

Thanks Lyle for being the most amazing husband I could have ever asked for! I appreciate your patience, kindness, and sweetness toward me. Thanks for putting up with all of my flaws and crazy moments. Thanks for crying with me through the tough times and laughing with me through the happy times. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me! I love you sooooooo much! :D
