Has it really been that long???

So i was talking to a friend yesterday about having a blog but not writing in it. well, what's the point of a blog if you don't write in it??? so here i am, repentant and determined to mend my ways.

so a lot has happened since we last posted. we are all moved into our new place (and we LOVE it!) check it out!









i have changed jobs and i LOVE that too :) the Lord has been really good to us. . .

there have also been some not happy things. . . as some of you know, we have been trying to have a baby pretty much since we got married. since we last posted we have had yet another miscarriage. it has taught us a lot and has brought us closer to each other and to the Lord. so even through the not so happy things, good things have come.

but on a happier note, this summer has been great! i've been calling it the summer of concerts. we've seen:
Sondre Lerche
Blue's Travelers
Josh Groban
Sara Bareilles

They were all great. Matt has totally got me converted to concerts :)

Let's see, what else has been going on in our lives..... OH! we went tubing down the Provo river for the first (and last) time last week. THAT THING IS EVIL! it not only ate my (pretty) new glasses, but also ate Matt's wedding ring! suffice it to say, we and the river are not on speaking terms at the moment.

what else? my sister got her mission call to Slovenia (i know. awesome, right?) and my other sister got home from her mission to Mesa, AZ and is as awesome an RM as could be (if i do say so myself). there have been 3 new additions to our family (two nephews and a niece) and we love them so much! we even got to have a family reunion a few weeks ago with just my immediate family. it was the BEST!

so that is our last year or so rolled up into a post. going forward i will be better about posting more frequently. matt and i are going to be training for a half marathon so i will let you know how that goes :S i've never been much of a runner so this should be interesting ;)
