February on Instagram

Feb. 2 - Even though it was Groundhog's Day, I felt rather accomplished
that I put my Valentine's decorations.

Feb. 2 - How Danny and I commemorated Groundhog's Day.  We
also watched the movie IQ.  It's a cute one, if you haven't seen it.

Feb. 3 - Bonding with the newest nephew.  Isn't he so precious!?

Feb. 9 - While visiting my parents, my dad got out his cool guitar from
Brazil.  Danny has always wanted to play it.  Since he wasn't there, I
decided to strum a few chords and take a picture to make him jealous.
Thoughtful, I know.

Feb. 9 - My, what lovely eyes you have...I love hanging out with my
awesome nephew, JM.

Feb. 13 - Twas' the night before Valetine's when all through the house,
there were red and pink decorations and a cute beardy spouse.
The sugar cookies had sprinkles and were frosted with care,

They were delicious, sweet treats from ma mere...

Feb. 14 - Best. Husband. Ever.  Danny surprised me for Valentine's
Day and took me to the ballet.  It was spectacular.

Feb. 14 - The Capitol Theater.  So classy.

Feb. 17 - Danny and I went to visit my cute Grandma and my Aunt
Sarah.  The view of the mountains from my Grandma's house were
awesome, so I had to take a pic.

Feb. 18 - On our snowshoeing adventure for President's Day.  Rugged
looks good on Danny.

Feb. 18 - A winter wonderland scene from our snowshoe adventure.

Feb. 18 - So glad we finally got to break in the snowshoes.

Feb. 28 - Danny and I have made it a tradition to attend the Banff
Film Festival tour every year when they come to SLC.  The films
this year were just as thrilling as ever.
I do have to note that Danny's birthday was also this month and for whatever reason, I didn't instagram any pics from that blessed event.  Probably because I was busy frosting a cake and wrapping presents.  I still wanted to mention it, even though it isn't represented by a cutesy filtered picture.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

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

2013 - The Year of Grace

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

This Weekend

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
