In 3 days we will have been married 7 months... 7 months can you believe that!!?? It has flown by but let me tell you, we have had so much fun! Seriously has been the best 7 months ever! Well i think it has been for Cory also, up until he sold his car at least.. but hey, now he knows how i feel!!!

We are now the proud owners of Lucy the Lexus and Maxeem the Maxima. They are nothin' like the mazda and mustang but it is nice not having car payments and being able to drive in the snow! Oh the sacrifices you make for love :)

But on the bright side, went on a little shopping spree and now have cute matching Nike Free shoes :)

Cory's dad has some 5th row seats to the Jazz games and we have had the opportunity to go to a couple :). It is so cute watching cory when we are at these, he is so star struck being so close to the players!! It is way fun being that close, i can practically feel Deron Williams sweat!

Had to get a D Will jersey!

So if you get to the game 2 hours early you can get autographs from some of the players, so of course we didn't pass this up and went!!! :) Seriously, so cute seeing Cory so excited to meet the players :)

This Thanksgiving was my first thanksgiving away from my family, but his family never fails to make me feel welcomed! We went down to the Wennerholm grandparents house in St. George, and look how pretty it was down there! Maybe i liked it so much because it kinda looks like parts of AZ doesn't it??

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

*Family Portraits*

*October 2010*

Last weekend my parents came up to Utah to visit :). Not just because they miss us but they had to come see my primary program in my ward. haha I love the support of the fam! :) But yes... for those of you that don't know, i am the primary chorister in my ward. My reaction to this when they first called me was tears, and fear and the thought of 'why would they call me, i don't sing!'. But after praying and much thought and reading about how important this calling is (no pressure) and realizing you don't need an amazing voice to conduct a primary, i have to admit it is actually a lot of fun! So it was so much fun showing my kids off to my family!!

But while my parents were here for a few days, we had fun being together! Oh how i hate living so far away from them!!

After a temple session, our first one all together :)

At dinner..

Mom and dad enjoying the season of fall which AZ never experiences..

...And Happy Halloween!!!!

Can you believe that this time a year ago was when Cory and I started dating!?? And can you believe we have been hitched for 6 months!?? This has been the best year of my life and i can't wait for the rest of it!

This summer our family went on a Mexican Cruise!! It was a blast and i wish we could do it again! It was so much fun getting to spend an entire week with my family who live so far away :(... what is better then family, sun, all you can eat ice cream and beach!?? Pictures say it all so i won't say too much more :)

Doesn't it look so warm??? haha first couple days were a little chilly but we didn't let that ruin anything!!

Puerto Vallarta

Mazatlan

So as we were playing in the water we saw this dead fish out in the distance.. yuck.. so somehow we got logan and becca to go and scoop it up. haha I wonder how long that thing had been dead?

Cabo San Lucas

Look how gorgeous the water is!!

*Honeymoon*

So time to update the blog!! Here are our pictures from our honeymoon finally! So Cory wanted to surprise me with where we were going on our honeymoon, and i found out the night before we left...

Daytona Beach Florida baby!!

On one of our many walks on the beach we found a starfish... and i actually got the nerve to pick it up!! :)

We found a miniature golf place next to our resort and couldn't pass it up.. twice :)

And then randomly Cory had this genius idea of waxing his legs! SO FUN!! (well, for me at least :))

There is nothing like the beach!! AHH how i love love love beach and love love love cory!

One day we decided to drive to orlando.. on our way we saw an ad on the side of the road for a place called Gatorland, so we talked about it and we decided we were in florida and needed to see some gators!!!!

Do we look hot and sweaty??? Ya florida was pretty humid...

Geez snakes too????? Gatorland has everything!

So this little fellow bellow was the highlight of our Gatorland experience. Ok so he is not so little.... look at that beak!! Story... Cory and i were feeding the gators when all of a sudden i felt something bite the back of my leg, i turned around and saw this huge bird. I then told cory what happened and he didn't believe me so he laughed and we continued to feed the gators, when all of a sudden cory got bit in the back of the leg!! So then we got freaked out by this thing and started to walk away.. but the bird wouldn't leave us alone, so we started to run and the bird starts to chase us across the park!!!!!! AHH! It was scary but so fun :)

Who knew there were white alligators??

Petting zoo and bird feeding...

:)

I wish i could stay on a honeymoon forever, now back to reality...
