Conference Weekend 4/2011!!!

I LOVE conference weekend, when I was younger I wasn't very good at watching the Saturday sessions. Now I love it. And I Love that I get to watch with my husband.. If you didn't get to watch it please read it when it comes out in print. Elder Scott's talk was probably my favorite!!! Being married is amazing and he spoke about the wonderfulness of marriage!
Saturday Conference was beautiful and warm outside, Sunday morning I woke up to this.. yuck.
We went to Provo to go to dinner my family before the Boys went to Priesthood.. Above you can see what happens after priesthood! hahaha :) That is my dad and older brother!!! So funny!

Slumber Parties!

I met Amber in 7th grade.. Now we are both married!!! Well I guess even when you are married you can have Slumber parties. One night we did the normal dinner and Ice-cream and we decided to watch a movie, well it was getting late so we decided to just have a slumber party! She was such a trooper, She is 7 months pregnant and still was willing to stay the night on a uncomfortable bed and stay up late to watch a movie. haha LOVE YOU GUYS!

So my amazing Mother in Law is so great!!! She is making this amazing scrapbook for my niece Emma for her birthday!!! I helped her... and i'm not really good at scrapbooking and kind of don't like to scrapbook (probably because i'm so bad at) so I made Jarom come and help us.. my face is me mad that he isn't helping.. hahaha I'm such a brat, seriously though my MIL is amazing thanks for liking me even though I'm bad at everything that you are good at! :)

3 Year Anniversary and Valentines day!

Happy Valentines day!!! AND Happy 3 year anniversary to Jarom and me. We got married Feb. 16, 2008!!! I can't even believe it has been 3 years! I love being married more than anything in this whole world.. And I love that I get to celebrate every year being married to my best friend!
We have started a tradition of ordering a cake that looks exactly like our top layer of our wedding cake.. same flavor and all.. It is so yummy! Granite Bakery in Sugar House, UT is amazing!! The perfect way to celebrate is going back to the temple!!! I love going to the temple with Jarom
My V-day gift!!! Love Gilmore girls, even nicer was Jarom watched both seasons with me!
To kick off our anniversary weekend we had a candle light dinner!!! Jarom came home from work to this!!! Love you babe!
Jarom LOVES sugar cookies with Blue frosting, part of his gift was these cookies, we made enough for him to take into work to share!!! These are kind of the only good homemaking thing i can do.
I love flowers, and I Love getting flowers. I know they die and they are a waste of money, but I love having fresh flowers at home!

On V-day Jarom rang the door bell and I answered to him with a long stemmed rose and chocolates. Yes I know that is the typical V-day gift, but he knows that is what I LOVE!!! Thanks honey for spoiling me rotten and celebrating such an amazing weekend with me.
So many people make fun of Jarom and me, we celebrate EVERYTHING. We have so many little things that mean something to us, we celebrate every mile stone, we have so many special things between the two of us. We are cheesey, we are so in love, and I love that we are. I love that I get to say I'm Happily married. I Love that Jarom is my best friend! I love that he is a great husband. One of my favorites gifts from jarom was his love note to me. He is so good to always leave me sweet love notes all over the place, and for big events in our life he writes really long love notes... well this year he read me his note. He sat me down and told me everything he loved about me. Seriously it was like 15 mins long, and i LOVED it. I didn't cry when we got engaged, I didn't cry when we got married but I totally cried when he told me how much he loved me, and told me all the reasons why he loved me. Thanks Jarom for being my everything! Here's to being with you forever and ever!

Boat Show!

Jarom and I went with my brother and his family, and my parents to hang out at the Boat Show. I remember it being a lot more fun when I was little, but that's okay it was still fun to hang out with family!
Basically ALL the nieces and Nephews LOVE Jarom!!! SO cute!!
