Hello Again!

So, I obviously haven't blogged in a longgg time, I guess I just never think I have anything to say, but now I figure I should update on my life :-)

We have a new dog and cat since I posted last and we're BUYING A HOUSE!!

We are so excited for it and can't wait to be in OUR OWN place and a place with a backyard!! Our dogs neeeeed it :-)

So we are moving the 15th of May and can not wait, even though moving isn't our favorite thing, even though many of you may disagree since this is our 4th move in our 2 years of marriage :-) We like moving in the way of having new things, but not in the way of having to pack all up again and haul everything away. Tyler hates that part :-) So if anyone that reads this would like to help us move, let me know! :-)

Here's so pictures of our new dog who we adore!

Great Weekend with Family!

Tyler and I spent most of the weekend over at his parents, spending time with his sister and our nephew and niece. Here's lots of cute pictures from Sunday when we were over there! So fun!

Oh My Wonderful New Niece

So Emily, Tyler's sister, is in town for the weekend and Tyler and I got to see our new niece, Juliette last night, and she is WONDERFUL! She's so beautiful, and so happy and peaceful. I love her!

AND our nephew Maddox is getting so big! He's so cute and can say Tyler and my names :-) He calls us Tyler and Cole. Very cute! :-) I love when they come in town, but they should probably just move her! K Em?! ;-)

Tyler was holding Juliette before we left for the night, and she fell asleep in his arms. The CUTEST thing in the world! It made us both want a baby :-)

More Blooming Tulips!

Tulips!

My first tulips bloomed today and there's many more to come!! 

Tom's Shoes

Tyler and I heard about these shoe's called Tom's Shoes from our friends store last year, and they're some of the coolest shoes! Cool looking and a cool message.

I don't know if you have ever heard of these types of shoes, but they're amazing. When you buy a pair of shoes, the Tom's company gives a pair to a child in need of shoes. We thought it was such a great idea and it honestly touched my heart and I felt like it was something we should do, because we not only got a cool pair of shoes :-) but we also get to help out two children!

Here are the pairs we got, and I'm really excited to get them in a few days :-)

Go here if you wanna get some, or read more info about them! It's so neat! www.tomsshoes.com

Garden, Continued...

So I decided I was going to plant strawberries, sunflowers and daises in my little garden, so today I planted my strawberries and I'm going to wait a couple weeks to plant my flowers so the frost won't get them, because we're still having some cold mornings.

Before Picture

Ok... So like I said in my last post, I forgot to take a before picture of the nasty garden that I re-did, so I took a picture of all the stuff that we pulled out and put in the trash and stuff... So here it is! A full trash can, plus 4 trash bags full (one is in the other can). 

New House/New Garden!

So, as everyone probably knows, Tyler and I moved in November to a new, cute, wonderful North End house and we're loving it. The past few weeks I've noticed tulips started to come up in the front of my house, so I decided that I wanted to plant more things in the little gardens around where the tulips are blooming. So Tyler and I went to the Flower and Garden show this past weekend at The Grove and I got a great deal on some lilies, at least I think its a great deal, :-) so I bought 20 lilies and planted them in the little spots in the front of my house. Here are pictures after I got them planted and I will post more when they bloom.

So as you can see in those pictures, the tulips are already coming up, and the empty spots are where I put 10 lilies on each side. So I'm hoping that the lilies fill it out really nice!

And these pictures are of a little second on the South side of our house that had a terribly ugly plant in it that looked so old and like it hadn't been taken care of in years. (I'm kicking myself because I forgot to take a before picture) So Tyler and I dug it all up and picked it all out and now it looks so healthy and pretty! I am wanting to plant something there, I just haven't decided exactly what yet. I'm thinking either some cucumbers, zucchini and tomatoes and just filling it with fun flowers. So we'll see. Tyler and I are going to go to the store soon and see what I can find. 

I'll post pictures after I get stuff planted and stuff starts to come up. I can't wait :-)

I FINALLY SURPRISED TYLER!!!!

So... I planned a surprise party for Tyler for his "golden birthday" 22 on 22, and I was so nervous that he was going to figure it out, because he ALWAYS figures out the surprises that I plan for him!!

So we had over 30 people respond and say they'd come, so our little house was PACKED with people! But it was so great to walk in to a HUGE SURPRISE and have so many friends, some whom Tyler hasn't seen in years! Tyler was SO shocked!!! It was GREAT!! 

Here are some pictures from the night!

And of course, Rock Band to end out the night :-) We missed you playing the guitar Lisa!!! ;-)

Cascade Sledding

Tyler and I went up to my Grandparents cabin in Cascade for the weekend and there was a ton of snow up there, so we went sledding! And my Grandparents have a super long driveway that is really fun to sled down! Here's some pictures! (Even my grandparents went sledding with us! It was awesome!)

Happy New Year Everyone!

Here's a picture of Tyler and I right before midnight.And heres my wonderful friend Lisa. I'm very glad her and her husband came! We love them!

And here I am with my 2 friends Roz and Bethany. Two wonderful girls as well!

Happy New Year EVERYONE!

Merry Christmas!

It's been a long time since I've posted, I know, but for some reason I couldn't get pictures on my blog anymore after Tyler messed with my computer one day, but then he figured out how to do it again and taught me, so yay :-)

Here is a picture of Tyler and I on Christmas and we hope everyone else had a great Christmas!

Tyler's sister Emily and her husband Kyle and their wonderful baby boy Maddox are coming into town tonight, so we are very excited to spend time with them and have our family Christmas with them tomorrow night! 

MOVED!!

Yay we've successfully moved and it's wonderful!! It was horrible though, because I got the flu 2 nights ago and was up all night (being sick) and then yesterday I had a stomach ache all day, so I couldn't be a very helpful unpacker, because I was really weak, and sick. But finally by the end of the day, I was starting to feel better, so we had a ton of help from lots of people, THANK YOU SO MUCH WHO HELPED!! So that was helpful and today we're going to unpack a bit more and then go over and have a family "thanksgiving/grandmas birthday" at the in-laws, so that should be fun!! So, as soon as I can find where I packed my camera, I will post pictures!!

Longest week of my life!!

So, Tyler and I are moving on Saturday and we're SO excited! BUT... This week has been the LONGEST WEEK OF MY LIFE!! Usually my weeks are really fast, but since I'm looking forward to something really big, the week is dragging! 

The good thing though is that the guy that owns the house let us move a bunch of our boxes to the house last Saturday, so we got a path cleared in our apartment so we can walk through it again, because it was beginning to get very full with the boxes, and we've been moving a little each night since then, so at least we get to see it, and every time we go over, we talk about where things are going to go in the house, so thats fun. I just really hope that these next 2 days go by fast cuz I CAN'T WAIT TO MOVE!!! :-)

WE GOT THE......

HOUSE!!!!!!  Yayyyy! Tyler and I are SOOOO excited and can't wait to move in 12 days!! :-)

Here It Is!

So, Tyler and I are pretty sure that we're going to start renting our wonderful North End house on the 15th of next month. Take a look!

Oprah

I've begun to watch the Oprah show every once in awhile and the episode that was on today, I heard was going to be great, but I didn't get home from work in time to see it all, but I did see a part that made me CRY! Go watch the clip!

LIFE

Hello again! Sorry I haven't written a post in awhile, but I can't really think of anything to blog about anymore, but I do still blog... Just not as much :-)

So life is good right now... The babies at work have started to smile this past week and it's wonderful that they are beginning to smile and respond to us talking to them and such. I love it!

Tyler and I are going to Walla Walla, Washington this weekend, because my second cousin Amy and her daughter, who I've never met before, because they live in Paris and I haven't seen Amy in like 6 years, is coming to visit my Great Grandma, so we're going to see her too, cuz Tyler has never met her and I miss her! So I'm very excited for this weekend!

Also, Tyler and my lease is up the end of next month, at our apartment, so we are starting to look and see if we can find a decent priced house to start renting and we found an awesome house that is RIGHT on Boise Ave and we were talking with the owner to see if we could give him the deposit and he would hold it till we could move it, but he decided that he couldn't wait another month, and we found that out this morning, so we were kinda sad, but it's ok, BECAUSE Tyler randomly looked on Craigslist today for houses and we found an AWESOME one, that's in the North End of Boise, which we LOVEEEEE that area; it's our dream area to live in actually :-)

So we went and looked at it tonight and it's wonderful, so we told the guy, that same thing we told the Boise Ave guy, that we could give him the deposit and this guy seemed more ok with that idea and he said he'd get back to us within the week to let us know what he decides. So PLEASE pray for us, that if it's the house for us, he'll call us back with a YES :-) And we really love this house so we're really hoping he picks us!

So yea... That's life for Tyler and us right now. Just thought I'd update you all :-)

Tyler's FIRST Time Carving Pumpkins!

Here they all are! Tylers are the 2 left ones
