we got another dog, knox. yes we are crazy. knox is a great dane with a little mastiff, yes he is going to be huge. knox is very naughty and very hard. i think both me and jordan have felt a little overwhelmed at times but one day he will be such a good dog. he is really cute.

yes we love him.

Thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving. I am so grateful for the life that I have. I am very lucky to have the things that I do and the people that know.

A little list of what I am thankful for..

My husband. He seriously is the best. He works so hard to give me the things I think I need. He is such a good budgeter, good thing because I am not. He is so patient with me and knows just how to deal with my moods! J can always make me feel good. J is such a good person and has such a good heart, he makes me better. He is funny, loving, honest and cool! I wish he knew how great he really is. I love his face. I am so very thankful he is mine and I am his. I can't imagine my life without him, being his wife make me so happy.

My family. I love love my Dad and Mom, Brother and Sister. I don't know how I got so lucky to have such a wonderful family. They are always there to support me and make me feel better. My mom and dad have been over countless times to help us paint and put together our little house. We couldn't have done it without them. And even though Markus and Mariah are so far, I feel so lucky to have them in my life. I love talking to them and hearing about their lives and how awesome they play. (Just a little shout out to Markus, He made 9 three pointers Saturday at his game.... WOW he's good!)

My in laws. The Bowden family has been my second family for a lot of years. I love each one of them. Kay and Bob have always made me feel so welcome in their family, they have always been there to give me good advice and they raised a great son. Each of the siblings in law are also so great! They each bring something different and good into my life.

My doggies. Sometimes I wonder how much I can love 2 dogs so much. I can't imagine our little family without them! Cohan usually has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and I get up and take him, and I don't even mind. Cohan is very high maintenance, he is so athletic and always wants to be playing fetch. He is a really good dog though, he makes me happy. (I know there are people gagging right now... saying "he's a dog") And Bosty. He is such a good dog. He just likes to lay by you and have you pet his tummy. When J first got him we were playing with him by J's apartment. Boston got past me and was running down 9th east, long story short he ran onto the street and was inches away from getting hit. I am so grateful he didn't. Boston is really funny with bones, I really don't think he likes them but he likes to tease Cohan. B is so cute and his little stubby tail is so cute. Love them!

My extended family I have the best grandmas and grandpa. My ammie (grandma) is seriously so selfless and I love her. She is so talented and crafty I wish I was like her. My grandma beedee watched me for the first 6 years of my life while my mom and dad were at work and those days are some of my favorite memories. She makes the best food, I hope one day I can learn all of her secrets. My grandpa, is such a good grandpa. I don't think he would ever miss any of our games. He loves each of us and we know it. Jordan's grandparents are also so wonderful. Grandma Lund, is an amazing woman. She is such a good example to each of us. Grandpa Lund would do anything for his family. Grandma and Grandpa Bowden have always been so nice to me. They always give me a hug when I see them and I am so grateful for that. I have great cousins too... I used to see them a lot more which I miss. I have such good memories with them. I am so lucky to have little Victor as a cousin as well. I love him and he makes me so happy. I am so grateful for my family.

I have so many other things to be thankful for.

SNOW

I really hate the snow. I would much rather it be 115 degrees outside. I feel like we have had so much snow already this year.... and blizzard 2010. HA. I had no idea they were predicting a "blizzard" until talking to Tasha and hearing that her work was closing early along with every other work place besides mine. Then I go to Walmart to get groceries for my boss, there were people there stocking up, one lady bought 6 gallons of milk. I guess we were suppose to be home bound for the following days. I kinda get a little nervous when I hear things like this are going to happen, Im a baby, I know. I was very happy with this huge storm!

This is me and J out shoveling our drive way (the first snow storm of the year)

... Yes, it took us 2 hours.

look at all that snow.

Cutest doggies ever! They actually like the snow as long as one of us is out there with them. They gallop through the snow and chase each other.

COHAN

BOSTON

Love them!

Happy Halloween

WoW.... I know a little late! We rarely dress up for halloween but a couple friends talked us into it! This year I was a clown and Jordan was "white trash" lots of people thought he was Joe Dirt.

First we went to Jordan's aunt Laurie's house for her annual Halloween party. She made yummy soup and scones and there was great company!

Then we went to "snug fest" (a party at snug's house!) Everyone dressed up and we had a great time.

I took more pics of other people and their costumes but uploading them takes so long.. anyone have a way to upload more then one picture at a time. I suck at this blogger thing!

WITCH A PALOOZA

monday night me, my mom and ammie went to gardener village for witch a palooza. it was a blast. witch a palooza is a play and you eat dinner while watching the show. it was so funny and i am so glad ammie asked us to go.

love these 2! i am pretty sure i have

the best mom and grandma!

the witches they put up at GV, are so

so so cute.

ha ha ha! when i found out there would be

no coke served with our dinner, i asked

the lady if we could bring one in! she

said yes!!!! since we were

a few minutes early we ran to the gas station.

yes... i have a problem!

if you have never been it really is

super fun and dinner was yummy!

while there we decided we are having

a girls night once a month! it was so

great to go with my mom and ammie,

wish mern could have come. we

missed her! thx am! love you.

this "witch" in the silver is witchy gaga!

my fav!! the show was about a warlock who

was turning 500 and had to find a witch or

he would turn mortal. his witch friend

tried to help him by bringing back all of his

girlfriends from the past.

(witchy gaga was one from the past)

each witch came in

and sang a song... good songs! loved

the show! go see it!!

Engagements

These are a few of our engagement photos. We took most of them in Murray park and a few at an abandon building on State. I loved this day.

This was the picture we used for our announcements.

This is my favorite. I was originally going to use this picture

but a few people told me it looked like we were in a bathroom.

Oh well.... I loved how our invites turned out.

After I saw this one I called it the Twilight photo!

WE ARE MARRIED!

We got married almost 2 weeks ago! I wish I had all my pics back but for now you just get an update. Our wedding day was perfect. Well worth all the stress I was feeling a couple days prior. Just so everyone knows I married the best most perfect man. I love him.

A long more detailed post with lots of pics coming your way very soon.
