30 Day Challenge: Day Five

A picture of your favorite memory.

In a blog that is for both Jordin and I, how can I not put a picture of our wedding day?!
I chose this picture in particular because I remember how important it was to both of us to have the dance with our parents, me with my dad and Jordin with his mom. Our parents are who taught us the importance of marriage and making it work and loving each other. They got us to that day and we love them for it. There wouldn't have been a wedding day without their influence. We love them!

30 Day Challenge: Day Four

A picture of your favorite night. (We'll pretend I did this yesterday...)

These are from the night that we went to the opening night of Harry Potter 6. Actually my favorite nights are when we go to any of the opening nights of ANY Harry Potter. We've made it a tradition to go. I like the anticipation of it all. Like here, Tiffany fell asleep (like she can do anywhere) and we passed the time by drawing on her face. Augh, good times!


We can't WAIT until the next and final HP comes out!!!! We're so excited!

30 Day Challenge: Day Three

A picture of the cast from your favorite show.

Before I met Jordin I had seasons 1-5, and 9. Then after Jordin and I were married, we started watching them all together and we bought the other seasons. We love it! While it's not always the most appropriate show, we think it's hilarious and a great mix of characters. And funny side note: Whenever we watch it, the song at the beginning has a part that claps and when I watch it, I make sure that we ALWAYS clap with that part! I don't know why. Just one of my quirks! :)

30 Day Challenge: Day Two

A picture of you and the person you have been close with for the longest.

I thought of a lot of different people for this. Megan Jarman (Farmer) who I have been friends with for a million years, Tiffany Leishman who has been an amazingly close friends since the beginning of college, but I had to pick my sista! It's been her and I since we were little and I wuv her!

30 Day Challenge: Day One

Day One: A picture of yourself with fifteen facts.

1. Jordin and I love to travel and plan a trip for every year. Whether it be by plane or a big roadtrip, we have to go somewhere new every year.
2. Pailey is an adorable girl/tom boy. She loves pink and shoes but she can grunt with the best of them and has no fear of jumping off heights (like the kitchen counter).
3. We have a dog, Dash, and he loves to play frisbee. Indoors too.
4. I cry really easily. I cry at stupid things like sappy moments on TV... I'm a big sensitive baby. :)
5. Jordin loves to go off-roading and likes to spend his extra time looking at new ways to make his Blazer even better.
6. Pailey's first word was "quookie" meaning anything that was eatable. Now the word has evolved into "quood day" aka Good Day which still means any kind of food she wants.
7. I am starting a print design company called "Doodles and Design". I have been super lazy about getting it really going but I have revamped the logo from the original design and I hope to be getting things going soon.
8. Pailey calls everyone "Dada". Including me. She knows that I am actually Mama, but when she has the chance she says Dada in a tone that really makes me think that she is doing it on purpose.
9. We can't decide where we want to end up some day. We have literally gone through a map of the entire U.S. and have not agreed on a place to 'end up'. We've recently decided we'll just wait and see where the jobs are and maybe we'll find something a long the way.
10. Jordin and I both graduated last December from Brigham Young University- Idaho. Jordin graduated in Construction Management and I graduated with a degree in Communications with an emphasis in Advertising.
11. I hate the cold. By hate I mean: detest with the utmost loathing and abhorrence. It's horrible to be cold.
12. Pailey is turning out to be shy. Just like Jordin and I were when we were little. I took her on a play date the other day and she just watched the little boy play and she was so quiet. I think she'll grow out of it just like Jordin and I did.
13. Jordin and I are both readers. We love to read books and we have read a lot. I get super obsessed with them, however, I read read read while mostly ignoring the rest of the world. Jordin can read and then put the book down for days and come back to it later.
14. Jordin and I plan on spending every possible weekend camping/hiking/ enjoying the weather outside this summer. It's going to be great!
15. Finally, Jordin and I have been married for three years and have loved it! We love our families, we love our baby girl, and we love our life!

Easter Weekend

This is P-Cakes waiting with daddy in line.

 Happy Easter everyone! I hope you all had a great time and remembered the reason behind all the joy. So in a slightly more commercial Easter tradition, we took P-Cakes to an Easter Egg Hunt at the hospital grounds in Burley. It was really windy like Burley always is but we all bundled up and waited in line for P-Cakes to get her goods. (For 0-2 year-olds they had a line instead of scattering the eggs on the grass.)

She loves to stick out her tongue!

Look at the cute basket! She picked it out herself...

Family waiting in line. It was SO cold!

Grandma and Grandpa got in on the fun too!

While waiting in line, Jordin worked on teaching Pailey how to walk. Which turned out to be productive because she took her first steps later that day!

She didn't quite get the whole opening the plastic egg to get to the candy. ;)

It was a fun weekend. We loved being able to spend time with mom and dad and we were even able to get in a small hike and picnic at the City of Rocks.

Getting the Picnic ready! It was delicious!

Loving Nature!

Smiles with Grandma

What a fun little hike!

Utah?? Okay.... Let's go

Jordin got a job! A week ago, we got a call from a company, Lonestar Builders, said he didn't get a job that he had interviewed for a couple of weeks before. They told us that we didn't get the job because they hired someone with more experience. The next day, they called and said that the guy they hired was actually over-qualified for the position they hired him for. So they made the other guy a Project Manager and hired Jordin as a Field Engineer.

So we packed up all of our stuff from his parent's house and after savaging for housing we moved to Spanish Fork, Utah. We found a cute townhome on the outskirts of SF and have been working tirelessly to unpack everything and find a place for it all. It'll take some time. But its been great so far.
