Candy Corn Wreath

I saw this wreath on Howdoesshe.com and I had to make it! I love it! So my neighbor and I got to work last night (Jordan had a boys night so I had to find something to do!). This is what we did...

A Great Day

Jordan got to stay home all day with us and Vance was so happy! He loves playing with his daddy!

Monterey, CA

So we all know that Angie and Bill moved to Monterey.. and no, I'm still not over it but it is getting easier. Anyway, Bill went out earlier than Angie so she and I got to drive out together with the boys. SO FUN! 18 hours with Yo Gabba Gabba playing and singing to Aida never got old. But we made it to Monterey and it was worth it. She lives 1 mile from the beach. I love it there. These are a few highlights from the trip: Waking up to Cade everyday, smelling the fresh ocean breeze, eating a lot, talking, driving on Hwy 1 (getting car sick), and of course, watching sports every night... ha ha! Go Giants!

Can't wait to go out there again!!! LOVE YOU GUYS AND MISS YOU!

2 Years?!?

This is a little past due but we have been so busy. BUT it's been two years! We have been married for two years! I feel like it has been way longer than that... in a good way! I love our life together and I can't wait to see what the years to come bring us!

We went to Snowbird Resort for a night( left Vance for the 1st time over night with Sandy). We loved being in the mountains where you feel like the only people there. We got a couples massage(I had bruises because I told the girl to do a deep tissue... ow!) and we got to go to dinner and talk! We haven't talked in a long time... that was so nice. Then that night we got to get room service! I LOVE getting room service.. like in the movies.. so fun! Anyway, we relaxed and enjoyed lunch the next afternoon. (Thanks Sandy for watching Vance!)

SAD SAD SAD

I don't know if this is necessary to put this up on my blog because it is so sad but oh well. I don't know how I am going to be able to see to type this because I am already crying. This has not really been discussed in our house hold or with friends that much because I cry too much.

About 3 weeks ago we got news that Angie and Bill were moving to California for a new job. I felt like this was so premature. We were all supposed to be moving next May, not now! The problem I have with this move is that we have babies now. We were SO excited that Vance and Cade could play together and now they will only know each other through Skype and cell phone pictures. I am so sad. My best friend is gone. Angie is a person that is so unique. First off, she is my only sister and so obviously you can never replace that relationship. Second, she is crazy and fun. She is real. She is sometimes all-knowing, which can be a good and bad thing:) She is a loyal friend who is always there. She loves to eat out as much as I do. She loves Target as much as I do. She loves Vance as if he was hers and he LOVES her because she is so full of energy and love. She is the best friend that I have always wanted. If you haven't realized yet, I love her and miss her A LOT!

Angie, Cade, Vance and I spent everyday, all day together. I don't even know what we did, that was the beauty of it. We didn't have to be doing anything, but we always had fun! I don't know what to do with all this time I have alone. I hate it! I miss talking to Angie ( face to face, not over the phone because she is not good with the whole phone thing) about whatever came to mind and had no shame with anything( good or bad:) Another thing that we miss is having another couple to go out with or play games. CRAP who are we going to watch SYTYCD with??? What men love that show except Derek, Bill and Jordan? And I bet Bill will enjoy coming home to just Angie and Cade, since Vance and I were there most of the time when he would get home from work, ha ha. But that's no reason to move, Bill! Vance will miss his Uncle Bill. Bill always lit up Vances world for some reason. Bill could give him a weird look and Vance would smile and shake.

Ok, I know they aren't dead but still change is not very much fun! I may or may not be struggling with eating too much because of this move. I will blame it on Angie and Bill if I get obese because I can't stop thinking about frozen yogurt!

Anyway, it is really hard to be unhappy or mad about such a great thing. Angie and Bill have moved and that's that. They love Monterey and everything about the beach. They are happy and Bill loves his new job. I guess this leaves only one option for Jordan, Vance and I... California. Our options are narrowed down to the bay area. We love it there too so it will work out!

Sorry, I don't usually write a post just to complain but I think Jordan is sick of hearing it and seeing me cry. So hopefully by writing my thoughts down, I will be able to move on a little bit and start functioning.

Trip to So Cal

We went down to Southern California after the Goulding Family Reunion because Jordan had a meeting down there for school. So we took advantage of the situation and went for a few days. We stayed in Huntington Beach with my family. It was so laid back and fun. Vance got to go to the beach for the first time. He had fun playing with the sand. Maybe someday we will live on the beach... HOPEFULLY soon:)

WAY Past Due!

This was the Goulding Family reunion in St. George back in July. It was a little toasty so we spent most of the time in the pool. We LOVED that part of it and of course, seeing family was great too!

Here are the pictures:

Jenna, Dareth and I got to go see CATS... we had a lot of fun!

Getting our toes done:)
