Recently....

We attended a sealing for a friend of mine from back home in Louisiana.
Congratulations Casey and Jillian! We are so happy for you two and wish you the best of luck as you begin this wonderful journey together! We look forward to seeing you guys next time we're in Utah.

We also recently celebrated our 1 year anniversary! Kevin is such a great husband- a huge help and support for me with work, home, family, and church. It has been a wonderful year and we look forward to the years to come.

Since we were in Utah for Casey's wedding, we decided to go to P.F. Changs, a favorite of ours and we had gone to on our honeymoon in Florida. Here is me in front of the restaurant reenacting the picture taken a year ago.

We don't have kids and we can't have Lola. I thought about getting fish but then I remembered you have to clean the fish bowl often (let's just clarify, I would rather bath and blow dry Lola every week than clean a fish bowl). I need to nurture something!
Mitch and Carrie, our old neighbors whom we miss terribly might I add, left us this guy. He has actually grown alot and we recently upgraded his pot. I don't have the heart to put him outside for fear he gets too cold or the wind blows too hard. You can water him and give him plenty of sun but he is always droopy, hence his name, Eeyore. The first day after moving him to his new location I was thrilled (am I lame or what?). Kevin saw one in the Taylor building that was over 4 feet. I am excited to see what happens to this little guy!

home sweet home

I recently was able to go home for a few big events going on: my sister's graduation, my brother's baptism, and crawfish season. Kevin wasn't able to tag along this one due to school and midterms so he was left to fend for himself a few days. He did quite well thanks to Scott and Ali, some ward members, and previously frozen meals. Everything was still in one piece when I returned and the house was clean.
Being home was so great and I ate so much food. In 4 days I had been to Copeland's 3 times, Tsunami's once, had my crawfish and fried shrimp, and plenty of other wonderful goodness. *oink oink*

oh sweet goodness! THE best sushi you will ever eat!
The family with the graduate. Congratulations Sistah!
My adorable fluff ball, Lola.
We sure do miss her and wish she could be here with us!
My little bug who kept saying "I can't believe you're here! I can't tell you how excited I am!"
Crawfish. The best.
