Happy Anniversary Love!

Today is Guy's and my 5th Anniversary! It has flown by! What a great 5 years. Looking back, we have lived in 4 different towns, 7 soon to be 8 homes, have had 2 precious boys, have gone through 5 years of college, and it's all been great! We are so blessed. I am the luckiest girl in the world! Love you hun! Here's to many more years to come!

Side note: Today I am in Gillette visiting my mom, and doing a Pampered Chef show. What a horrible wife, to leave my hubby on our anniversary. What an understanding husband I have! We will have to celebrate when I get home.

Update on the House!

Things are coming along slowly but surely! The beginning of next week they are putting in carpet and appliances. Then they will finish the electrical and plumbing. They are also starting the fence. Next Friday will be the Appraisal, and in 2 weeks will be the closing! I can't believe it. Everything is on track for being done when we move in, except the landscaping! YEAH! I was going to put some recent pics on, but last week my camera was in my purse, and I spilled Gatorade in it! My camera is BROKEN! I was so mad at myself, so all my posts will be picture less for quite awhile. Sorry!

WE GOT A HOUSE!!

For those of you who haven't heard, we finally got a house! We are SO excited! It is BRAND new, not even finished yet! The only reason we can afford something so nice, is because it has a VERY small lot. But we figured we will live there for 5 years max, and thought that we could survive with a smaller yard. (Living in apartments for 5 years, we haven't had ANY yard, so I think we will survive.) It is supposed to be done the 31st of this month, and we are supposed to be able to move in on Sept. 4th. Its a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath (we have our own bathroom off our bedroom!!) 1661 sq ft, 2 car garage home. It is SO nice! Here is a pic of the unfinished house. YEAH! We are SO blessed! :)

Update on the fam!

I thought I would update you all on what's going on lately in our household.

Let's start with the boys- They are both doing pretty good. Gabe has been battling a bad case of ear infections for the past month and a half. Today we went to the doctor for the 4 time, and it's still not gone, but doesn't look too bad. They want us to go to Billings to the ear, nose, and throat doctor, to see if he needs tubes put in; however, we decided to wait one more month to see if it keeps getting better. Hopefully it does. He has become such a sassy bully! He always wants to wrestle, hit, push, and scream. I have my hands full!

Micah was complaining of an earache in the middle of the night last night, so while we were at the doctor, I had her check his ears too. He has one ear infection too! She said that kids his age should get over it on their own. So we will have to hope and wait and see. We just enrolled Micah in preschool for this fall. He is so excited. We start swimming lessons next week.

Guy just found out that he passed his big engineering exam he took in April. He is so relieved! Also, yesterday he got his first raise. 4%! That's an extra $155/month. Every little bit counts. He is loving his job and getting lots of overtime.

Nothing really new with me. Just the same old, same old. We have just been busy looking at houses. Last week we spent 4 days in Lovell for Mustang days. It was fun but busy. Yesterday we got to go to Billings to go to the temple. Guy's nephew went through for his own endowment, and is leaving for the MTC on Wed. We are looking forward to Guy's 3 1/2 day vacation. Again, it will be very busy, but fun, with all the 4th of July festivities. Hopefully I will get some pics taken this weekend.

House Hunting

I know, I know it's been forever since I have blogged. The big news is that we have decided to buy a house. We don't know what for sure, but we are looking. It's been so much fun going shopping for a house. We hope to get one within the next few months. Other then that, not much else is new. We are looking forward to Lovell's annual Mustang Days this next week. We went boating on Saturday, and we are going to go again next Saturday. Hopefully I will get some pictures this next time. I am SO looking forward to the Tippett's coming this week! We can't wait for a fun filled week!

Matching PJ's

Aunt Brook bought Gabe a pair PJ's for his birthday, and they match Micah's. They love their batman pajamas, and they are SO CUTE! Thanks Aunt Brook!

Missing Laramie!

I just wanted to let all you Laramieites know that we (especially me!) are missing you, and thinking about you often. I made the best friends ever the short time we were there. I think about you guys daily and I miss all the fun times. I especially miss Volleyball on Wednesday nights, playgroup, and girls' night out! I miss the quick trips up to Cherry's house and the eating over and playing Wi with the Tippetts'. In our new ward we don't even have a playgroup!! People keep telling me to start one...but there is one problem....there are hardly ANY kids in our ward. Micah is one of two sunbeams! Quite different then we are used to in Laramie! Make sure if any of you are in the area, to give me a call! You know...Yellowstone is a beautiful vacation spot! (Hint, Hint!) Miss and love you all!!

Here are a few pics that I love-
