Haircut Day

Daniel has been having me cut his hair since we got married. I have never learned how to cut hair and so it has always been a trial by error thing. And it is NEVER fun. Usually because I mess up a hundred times before I get it right so what normally takes 20 minutes at the barber shop takes me three hours and then talk about the clean-up. I don't even want to go there. So ta dah! Here is the masterpiece this time. (Its always different)

Before
After

That's my cutie!

How do you change the background?

I have been looking for a way to change our background but can't find one. Daniel's at work so he can't help. You guys are changing your backgrounds all the time. Can anyone help me?

Happy Anniversary

Wow I can't believe it has been four years already. In a way it feels like it has flown by, but it also feels like I have known Daniel forever, like he has always been a part of my life. I just love him so much. Heavenly Father has blessed my life with the most wonderful man in the world, and He has also blessed me with a temple marriage so I can be with that man eternally! Wow! Isn't it amazing to think how much our Father in Heaven loves us, that he would bless us so richly. It is staggering to think about, and I am grateful for it. It is hard to express just how much I love Daniel and how happy he makes me feel, kinda like describing the Holy Ghost, nothing is adequate. But I'm sure y'all understand.

So, for our anniversary Daniel got me a camera. Its beautiful. And it has lots of neato stuff on it. It even has a special setting to take pics if pets! (Those people know how to sell) And so I was able to take pics of our special day. Look at my ciutie patootie! I just love him SO So SO much!Whoa! Who's that hot chick?!I made a cake and my childhood best friend sent me a card. AWWW! We love it!Daniel enjoying his pieceWe are going to paint the walls anyway, so I thought I'd give Daniel a little surprise. I tagged th wall! It was fun and free.

New Camera :)

I just got my new camera! Its so pretty. I love it! (Its supposed to be my anniversary present, but I opened it a little early! So I went picture crazy last night! It was fun. Here are a few pics of our house AKA The disaster area...

This is the living room ceiling. Not much fun to live with.












This is the place where we live (normally a mother-in-law suite). One room full of pretty much everything. Its kinda frustrating, but it will all be over soon and then we will have a lovely habitation.














Our patio is full of wood with nails sticking out among other things. I have taken more pics, but will post them later with some after pictures.

Super cute Pandas!

This is so cute. And its not long

Alabamy and The Dark Knight

We are here in the good ol' state of Alabama. Visiting with Raul and Kelly of course and it is wonderful! We love them. Last night we got to go see The Dark Night which according to Raul is "sick" and Daniel says its "wicked bad". Yes it was fantastic. Very must see. We love it. But what made it even better was we got to see it with people we love. And we are off to the beach today. Yea! I love it here.

We are going to AZ!!!

My brother has a great opportunity to work in Utah for a few days and we have been trying to figure out a way that we would be able to go up there and be with him somehow and also get to see family. And we have figured out a way! ALRIGHT! I am soo excited we are going to see the AZ family! We love you guys. All of your children are growing up so fast and we are kind of sad that we are missing most of it. But we will get to see them and everyone else too! We will arrive in AZ on August 5th and leave on the morning of the 9th. So even though it is a short visit, we are still glad we get to see everyone! And we will also get to go to our favorite place... Filiberto's! We LOVE IT. So good ad so cheap! You can't beat it! Plus we have to stock up on the Mexican candy Daniel likes so much. (I only like some of it.) But YEA!!!!!!

Lighting, check!

The recessed lighting in the living room is FINISHED!!! and it looks great! Daniel did awesome! So now we just have to wait until tomorrow night to finish the kitchen lights and the hallway lights and ALL the lighting will be finished! Woo Hoo. Good night!

Home Improvement

Well this weekend started out way GREAT! Kelly and Raul came to visit and we just relaxed and enjoyed spending time together, and then my family came and we prepared a gripload of food! Poor Raul was grilling in the superheat. But the food was wonderful :) And then my bro-in-law Rick went with Daniel to buy the supplies to get started on our house renovations. And since then it has been crazy. Our floor is NEVER clean because as soon as I pick up all the trash that's coming off the ceiling, there is more coming down. Poor Trogdor has to stay in a crate pretty much ALL day because he would eat all the stuff that's on the ground and we have discovered that its not as easy to put up drywall as we thought. There is always something that slows the process down. But we are super grateful for Raul and Kelly's help! They are the greatest! And my brother also came over to help us for a day. So that was awesome. I wish we could have gotten more done but I am glad we finished the stuff that's there. We have decided it would be easier if we moved all the furniture out of the room. So my job today is to move everything into a different room. FUN.

Misty Water-Colored Memories

This is the memory challenge from Kelly's blog. Its pretty fun, so I thought I'd give it a whirl.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.
