2 Years

Image
By
It has been 2 years since this blessed event...

Funny that this picture is one of my favorites from my wedding.The
semi-awkward moment when my brothers and new husband were
trying to hold me up still makes me chuckle.  I  remember vividly Tim
yelling out, "I don't know where to put my hands!"  Haha, my brothers
are such good sports.
Here we are all sorted out.  It kind of looks like I'm floating.
And here is a picture with my sisters so they
don't feel left out.
I know I should make a comment of how time flies, but honestly, I feel the passing of time since my wedding has felt like 2 years to me.  No more, no less.  Marriage has brought a lot of good times and growing times.  I think the thing that amazes me the most is how much Danny has become such an integral part of my life. Both good and growing times have caused us to grow together, so much that I really can't imagine life without him.  For that I am grateful.

In other news...

  • We (Danny and I) recently returned from an adventure.  You better believe our anniversary was celebrated with a bang.  There really is no other way to celebrate.
  • Also, I reviewed a production for the Utah Theater Bloggers Association, which you can read here.  This review was a hard one.  Writing positive reviews is easy.  Writing negative reviews with a positive spin on it, not so much.

    I love the picture of the boys trying to hold you. Your Jekyll-Hyde review was well-done, even if the play wasn't. I love the title!

    Jannifer, I can't convey just how grateful we are that you are a part of our family now! We can't imagine Danny's life without you! Even though we live far apart and don't get to see each other that often I feel like I know you (thanks to a wonderful thing called a BLOG!)and I enjoy reading and seeing what you and Danny are up to. I know you had a spectacular anniversary because I know you love to celebrate all things to the fullest. Please know that you and Danny are remembered in our family prayers every day. That proves how much we love you! :)

    p.s. The "prove you're not a robot" numbers and letters are really ANNOYING! I hate doing them after leaving a nice comment. Maybe you could do away with it? Pretty Please?

    Aww, thanks Mama Wood and Becky. Mama Wood - I'm glad you like my review. The editor actually came up with the title, so I can't really take credit for that. Becky - I added the "robot numbers" back on my blog because for whatever reason blogger wasn't allowing me to comment on my own blog without them.

    Hmm...that's crazy! I understand! Well, I'll just deal with the obnoxious requests! Sometimes they are really hard to read and I have to go through several different one! :)

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

By
I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue the circles to the foam tree in

This Weekend

By
This weekend was a whirlwind experience.  I realize I could split this up into like 4 or 5 different posts, but I'm just going to do one big, long post.  So get a snack, get comfortable and prepare yourselves. Friday Night:  Danny's Concert with his friends, The Atomic Thunderlips Danny performed up at the Layton amphitheater and rocked the house!  I really mean that, he did such  a fantastic job.  He opened for his friends, The Atomic Thunderlips, who also put on an awesome show. I had great fun clapping along to the music with my nephews who came and being a bit of a proud wife in the audience.  We all went out for a late night dinner at Iggy's afterwards, which showed me that I'm not in college anymore, because I got heartburn afterwards.   (Growing old, sigh.) Members of the family that came to support! Me and my nephew Dr. C before the concert. The boys clapping along. He can play with his eyes closed, he's that good. Danny the guitar man

2013 - The Year of Grace

By
I know we are well into 2014, but I'm still in the midst of recounting last year and making goals for this year. As I've looked back on and thought about 2013, I have to admit it has been a rocky year. However, during some of these hard times, I feel like Danny and I have drawn even closer in our marriage. I sure love that man of mine. I really think what makes a strong marriage is facing the tough stuff together. I have also grown closer to my Savior, though at times it didn't always feel like it, which I will discuss more below. I can honestly say, this year has whittled me down to a rather more fragile version of myself.  I think that is what being humbled is.  I have been humbled.  I’m still working on being humble. I think with this past year, I’m understanding more what grace is.  I think you have to experience a lowly place to even feel the need for grace.  I agree with the common phrase: “Do your best.” However, I don’t think we always understand what ou
