OCTOBER FUN

Our pride and joy - we spent hours carving these! Danny's is a Yankees sign, mine is a witch and Sammy's is a little paw print!
Oh Sammy, we made her get in the garbage can to smash the leaves down - great fun!
Raking leaves in the back yard - Sammy was having all kinds of fun running around in them
The Logan Pumpkin Walk! A bunch of talented people in the community make all sorts of scenes using pumpkins. With my brother-in-law Josh, Will, Drew and there neighbor Ava
Andra's wedding lunch. It was such a fun day and I am so excited for Jordan and Andra - they make the cutest couple! Plus it is always so much fun to see old friends.
Happy 23rd Birthday me! Danny was so cute and had such a fun night planned out for me.
Halle "Berry" Butterfield as Danny likes to call her! Our newest niece! She is so stinking cute. We now are the proud aunt & uncle of 7 kids - 3 girls and 4 boys! I just wish they all lived closer to us like Will and Drew.

BOSTON & Cape Cod

So I think I was suppose to live in Boston. Maybe it will happen someday. We'll keep dreaming! We had such a good time in Boston. Danny had to work and I wasn't going to let him go without me so we kinda had a pre-birthday trip. The only down fall was I lost my blanket that I've had since birth. Only a few of you will honestly understand the magnitude of this but don't worry I am trying to get over it.
At Boston Commons, Danny was having a great time pestering the ducks.
Danny visiting his great great great grandpas grave "Samuel Adams"!
Walking around Boston - honestly I could move there tomorrow. I love that city so much. I think it is the most beautifully designed city I have ever been to. A landscape Architects paradise!
On the USS Constitution Ship - we found out that they actually still sail it twice a year
At the end of the Freedom Trail - out on Boston Harbor
Walking along the beach in Martha's Vineyard.
This was so cool, during a certain time of the day the tide would go out and you could walk out in the water. It was so awesome, it felt like you were out in the ocean
On our drive up the coast on Cape Cod, Danny wanted the top down real bad so we compromised and turned the heat on in the car so I wouldn't freeze

End of Summer

Family night at Cafe Sabor with some of my favorite people! Julie, The Adams, The Woods, The Giles and The Neils - we missed you Spenny!
Julie and Hannah came up to Logan for a couple of days! It was so much fun to spend time with them - it also opened my eyes to motherhood - wow how do all you girls do it!
Will got to have a sleep over with Danny, Sammie and me. He was in heaven - we went and got a toy and treats - now he always wants to come over for a sleep over.
A little miniature golfing - turns out I am just as bad a mini golfer as I am a real golfer - darn it
Mr and Mrs Watts!!! Yeah we love adding friends to our married friend circle
John Mayer-Colbie Caillat Concert with Besty and Matt
The Keate Family reunion up at Bear Lake, notice my 89 year old grandma, I think she looks the best of any of us!!

Our New House!

June 1st we go the house - we spent our first night June 29th (our 2nd anniversary) it was the longest hardest month ever but we did it! Unfortunately I don't have before and afters of the exterior but don't worry I have lots of plans
We wanted a mantel and to be able to hang our TV above it so we had a concrete company come in and cut the rock out and then we had cabinets built on either side
Quite the change in the kitchen, we basically gutted the whole thing, we covered up the doorway and put new pretty much everything in!
We put in hardwood floors and made the opening into the kitchen wider
The master bedroom - it use to be two rooms but our bedroom furniture wouldn't fit so we torn the wall down
This was the old master bedroom, it is now Danny's office as you can see. This was his only request - Yankee blue wall, it was terrible to paint it took like 5 to 6 coats of paint


We turned this into the master bathroom - this was Danny's pride and joy (he did all the tile work)

The basement carpet had to be the worst thing in the whole house! Some nice Elmo red carpet and some really cute wall paper - hard to let it go!

Summer Fun

Julie, Hannah and Whit and Luke. They have got to be the cutest little babies in town
Julie is a mom! Cute little Hannah is here! I feel like a proud aunt. She is beautiful and I can't believe Julie did it! WOW
Watching the Logan fireworks with the family, my cute sisters and mom
Elise is home! I can't believe she is home, it was so fun to see her and everyone else

We took Sammy up to Bear Lake and we through the ball in and she was a nature born swimmer. We're such proud parents

Our new PUPPY!

Meet our new puppy Sammie, I saw an add for her on KSL on friday and work and called Danny and said oh crap it looks like we are getting a puppy about a month before we planned. We went and saw her at lunch time and weren't suppose to pick her up until the saturday evening but we were both like little kids on christmas we got to excited and had to pick her up friday night

Katelyn and me with my new little baby

All the nieces and nephews came up for Memorial Day, they loved the new puppy I'm just not sure how she felt about getting malled all day.

Our new little family

I got Danny this little stuffed animal puppy awhile ago and now the puppy sleeps with it, she had 12 brother and sisters when we took her - I think she misses them

giving our little puppy a bath the night she came home

GRADUATION

So Danny actually graduated last semester but he wouldn't take any pictures so I made him borrow my cousins cap and gown and pose for a couple of pictures. I think he was a little bugged with me - oh well at least we have some proof for the kids some day.

My cousin Charlie and me with my grandma Edie! We sure are grateful for her!

The whole group minus 2 or 3 - it is like an elementary class, we got really close over the past 4 years

My mom and dad and Danny in front of Old Main!
