What Year Do You Belong In?

To my sweet Husband..

I have been thinking a lot lately about how wonderful my husband really is. I love him so much! I'm so blessed to have him in my life. He is an amazing example to me and to others. When I think of all the wonderful qualities he has - I just have to say WOW! He makes me want to be a better person. I know I can be a little more like him. Kind, Humble, Patient, Loving & Sweet. To name a few. I mostly just want to tell him "Thank You". For who you are and the way you treat others. And especially the way tou treat me. You are the best husband & friend. I'm so glad you are my teddy bear forever.I love you honey!I truly am the luckiest girl in the world! XoXoXo - Jen

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!

Congratulations on 33 years of marriage !

To my wonderful parents,
I would just like to tell you both "Thank You" for the example you set for me. You are great Parents & Grandparents. Matt and I could not ask for better parents. We are so very blessed to have you as an example to us. You are still the best of friends & still have fun together. You got married young and had to grow up fast. Although I'm not so sure Dad is a grown up yet. Lol... I'm glad for that too. Thank You both for working so hard to raise the 3 of us. I don't think we turned out half bad. ;) Love you have fun on your little getaway.

** Camping Nebo Loop **







We were able to go camping over Pioneer Day Weekend. It was nice to have a little bit of a getaway together. We had never been camping there before and thought we would try somewhere new. We were amazed together what is on the Nebo Loop. The red rock pictures you see is "Devils Kitchen" . My dad says I have been there before, but I did not remember anything like that. We also went on a little hike to a cute little lake that has a ton of fish in it. Man wish we had our poles. We went with some friends of ours and had a nice time together. My friend Debbie and her husband spoiled us with his yummy dutch oven cooking. It was great! We had a great time on our 4- wheeler for like 5 minutes. We ran into a slight problem... You cannot ride ATV"s up there. P.S. there were not any signs anywhere! That is until we started up a trail maybe 300 ft from our campsite. There was a sign... We were BUMMED OUT! So like law abiding citizens we turned around and did not go up that trail. Instead went back to camp and got some lawn chairs, magazines & snacks to chill in the river. All relaxed and cooling down all of a sudden an egotistical Ranger showed up. To make a long story short wrote a ticket for $175.00 for having our 4-wheeler out of the truck in a no ATV area. No warning anything! What a Jerk is all I have to say! We were together having fun so that is all that matters, but I keep thinking of other thing's I would much rather buy than a 5 minute ride on my own 4 wheeler for $175.00! :)
