Today marks 5 years that Tyler and I have been married! He really is my very best friend, and can I just say, I am SOOOO lucky I found him! I keep thinking of that Brad Paisley song, 'And I thought I loved you then...' But I wonder, was I really in love with Tyler when I married him? Haha, Or did I just jump on the marriage band-wagon knowing that he was going to make me so happy for the rest of our lives, and take care of me and our little family? Of course, I loved him. But looking back, it's crazy to see how far we have come! For those of you who don't know, I married Tyler when I was 18. Exactly one year after I graduated from high school! I met him around Halloween, and we got engaged on Valentines Day. I remember everyone asking me after I got engaged how my parents felt about their 18 year old daughter getting married-- especially my dad! But really, my dad was so happy for me! Probably because he was really excited I wasn't marrying the kid I ...

 So I really suck at blogging lately-- Sorry if you read my blog, because it has been beyond boring---- BUT.... this is yet again another boring, look at what we have been doing this week in North Dakota... but on the bright side.... it really is pretty beautiful here when it's sunny! Clara is a champion at 'scooting' on this little walker/scooter she got for her birthday! I swear she just started walking, and now she can get on and off by herself, and scoot all over the place! So, she is waaayyyy more coordinate than Lucy. Haha. But really- Lucy is the most clumsy child ever, falls quite a bit, and ya... Clara is dang near running all over the place already! This is at Qdoba this week-- just playing at the park, and lunch with cute friends Jenny and Heather after Yoga on Tuesday. This is Lucy and her cute friend Ju-Ju--- Clara is on the swing with her sister Georgia!   Here's Clara with cute Matthew & Luke and yes... Lucy peed her pants, s...

 We have had such a fun week! It has been in the high 70's-80's all week, and Sunny! Yay! Monday night Tyler was in Dickinson so we headed back to Jimmy Johns and ate dinner at the park with Celeste & Anson. Clara LOVED drinking out of the water cup all by herself. She wants to be just like Lucy so bad! Such a cutie. Tuesday we met our friends Heather, and her 3 boys, and Amy & Ashlyn at the park! The girls and I ran there, and Ashlyn got to come home with us too! Her and Lucy thought it was awesome to all be piled in the stroller together. Lucy crashed when we got home when her and Ashlyn were watching a movie- I think poor Ash was bored to death!  I also found out I am running the St. George marathon again! Yay! I am seriously so excited, and so excited for another trip to Utah in October! =) I've already been running, but let the training really begin!  Clara is usually a pretty light sleeper, but I could NOT wake her up Tuesday. She was out...

The weather has finally gotten warm and kind of stayed that way! Yay! We had two picnic lunches this week at different parks, and the girls were in Heaven! This is Thursday with a bunch of ladies in our ward at the park by our church. Lucy loving my new sunglasses in the car. She's a cutie! We went shopping on Friday with Celeste & Anson and Lucy fell asleep in Clara's stroller... So i got stuck carrying Clara all over! Finally Lucy woke up but still wouldn't get out of the stroller, so I just stuck Clara in there with her! I seriously need to keep my double stroller in my car! We found a pink cowboy hat at Target and Lucy was in love! I am hoping she will wear it in the sun! She had to go home and put it on and carry around her horse- Wyo!  This picture like describes her perfectly. She is so funny lately.  Friday night was our night to babysit in our little co-op, and Lucy was in heaven with all of her little friends over!  Stets...
