Three Years!

Saturday was mine and Jonathan's third year wedding anniversary! We celebrated by going to the Boise temple and then going out to eat at Macaroni Grill. We have had a wonderful marriage thus far and I can't wait for another wonderful year with Jonathan. I love you, Babe!

28 years

On Tuesday my parents celebrated their 28th wedding anniversary! They met 28 years ago this June in a parking lot (no joke) and were married on September 9, 1980. I love my parents so much, they are two of my best friends and I look up to them in so many ways. I love you, Mom and Dad! Happy Anniversary!

So I wanted to post a picture of them around the time they got married, but I didn't have one - until I realized that Grandma has one up on her shelf in the living room! So I scanned it in and here it is - aren't they cute? This was one of their engagement pictures -


This is them at our wedding almost three years ago -

three years ago AND nine months ago today...

Three years ago today, Jonathan proposed to me and we got engaged! It seems like forever ago in a way, but also I can't believe how fast the time has flown. Jonathan took me on an all-day date and then we ended up in Provo Canyon, where he gave me a dozen roses, played the guitar and sang to me, and read me a children's book that he wrote about me, and then he proposed. It was very cute and I was very impressed with his creativity! I love you, Babe!

Here is a picture from the night we got engaged -


And a recent picture -


Also, nine months ago today our sweet little boy was born! Now THAT went fast! Honestly, I cannot believe how fast he has grown. He is now crawling around, standing up, getting into everything, trying to walk, laughing, babbling, waving, and showing his cute little personality.

I love these pictures from the day he was born -



And now he's all grown up! -


We love you, Buddy!

Flashback to Pregnancy

So the other day I was looking at my Mom's pictures on her computer, and I found some pictures of me from when I was VERY pregnant. I was HUGE! I think these were from a few days before James was born. I was pretty darn ready to have the baby!

Me with my sister Annie. Isn't she gorgeous??

Me with my sisters Annie and Liz (Happy Birthday the other day, Liz! Love ya!)

Here I am, just WAITING for James to come out! I was pretty much done with the whole pregnancy thing by this point.

The LOVELY side view. One of my favorite things about not being pregnant anymore (other than my beautiful baby boy, of course) is that now I can button up my coats again! Hooray! (And just in time for winter!)

And, just to refresh your memory, here I am skinny again! Yay! This is me and Jonathan on our 2-year anniversary that we had a few weeks ago! This was also the day that I discovered I fit into my jeans again. :)
