Just the two of us

For over a year it has been just the two of us. We have had a lot of fun together anywhere from going on trips to staying at home and playing games or going to Rigby to visit the folks. We decided that since we have so much fun together that we should expand beyond ourselves, thus our time alone together is coming to a close.

We are expecting our first baby May 25th.

September Barbeque

Ben and I have been very very busy since school has been going. We haven't had much time to do anything, but today I finally decided I would update the blog since we are almost two months behind. The only problem is that our camera has been out of reach (just to clarify, I didn't lose the camera, I just simply couldn't find it for a while) since we had a family barbeque in September so the last pictures we have are from the barbeque so here are the pictures.

Here is Ben with Carmel (he is staring at the juicy steaks on the grill).

Angie came to join him.

Kyle brought a guest, but we hope he keeps her.

Here is my mom, the master chef, and her accomplice Chelsie.

Here is their sidekick Kurtis (his wife was missing at the time of the picture).




After the barbeque we went and got pictures of us six kids with our mom (it was a long process and lots of butts were pinched).

After pictures we relaxed, here is Ashley and Angie.

Ben came and sat on me, but not for long because....

Priorities are first and Ben's priorities are with 'the boys' and Halo.

Lagoon

Ben and I were also able to visit Lagoon. Ben dragged me around to all the rides that I never wanted to be on in the first place just to see if he could get me to lose my lunch. Luckily, I didn't eat before I went on the rides or else the workers would have quite a mess to clean up. That's okay though because I dragged Ben on the Skycoaster and he screamed like a little girl. Unfortunately Lagoon doesn't do video's anymore and we didn't have anybody there to record us.

Here we are just before take-off.

Here is another picture of us shortly after. We had to take a break and sit on a bench for about a half hour to recuperate.

The Hogle Zoo

Our first day to Utah Ben and I were able to visit the Hogle Zoo. It's been a very long time since I've been there last and it's the very first time Ben has been. We had a lot of fun. The best part was when we saw a snake eat a rabbit.

Ben and me in the aligator place (we couldn't get a picture of the aligator because it was behind glass so you couldn't see it very well on the camera).

This is the first elephant that Ben has ever seen.

Ben just can't get away from Convergys!

Here is Donkey Kong (Ps we also found Bowser).

1st Anniversary

Ben and I have officially been married for over a year now. It has been a very good year at that. Dating was always fun, but being married is something else... something better. Here is a then and now picture of Ben and I.

This picture was taken at Kurt & Tristan's wedding reception, just 2 weeks after we were married.

This picture was taken at Lagoon on our 1st anniversary trip to Utah almost 2 weeks ago.
