March on Instagram

A few snapshots of what last month brought...

March 1: Our sister-in-law Katie made this adorable bird feeder for us for
Valentine's Day.  I put it up in our tree the first day of March to welcome
the birds back who were flying home from the South.  It was devoured in
about 3 days.
March 5:  Any sign of Spring kind of thrills me after such a cold, long winter.
The sight of the daffodils peeking through the dirt made my day.
March 14:  We had a few really nice days in March scattered in with the
cold snowy/rainy days.  On this particular day, Danny and I couldn't
help but take advantage of the beautiful weather and take a walk
in the park, just like everyone else in SLC.
March 14:  Happy Pi(e) Day!  We had a razzleberry pie to celebrate.
March 16:  Danny and I had a date night, which turned into a shopping
trip while browsing one of the stores near our home.  We found matching
shoes, which I was really tempted to get.  Nothing says a couple in love
like matching shoes, I'm pretty sure.
March 17:  Part of our St. Patrick's Day celebration, fruit rainbow as
part of our dinner!  I got the idea off of pinterest.  It was delicious.
March 17:  Also part of our St. Patrick's Day dinner, green pancakes.
March 20:  The first bloom of the season on the first day of Spring.
How fitting.
March 25:  I spent the morning with some of my coworkers scouting locations
for an upcoming photo shoot.  I found this stained glass window in one
of the older churches quite lovely.
March 26 - We had fresh blueberries and I was in a baking mood, so 
blueberry muffins was on the menu that evening.  Also, it forced me
to do a little grocery shopping because I realized half way through we
were low on flour and milk.  (I don't know why there is black mark on
the picture.  It doesn't show up that way on Instagram.)
March 30 - I spent my Easter weekend in St. George with the family.  It was
like being transported to summertime, it was so warm down there.  One of the
highlights of the trip was going swimming with the nephews.  I didn't take
pics while we were swimming, but here is a pic of two cute, wet, red heads
in the swimming pool parking lot.
March 30 - Another picture of my aquatic nephews.  Cute kids.
March 30 - I also couldn't resist taking a picture of this darling nephew!
Those. Blue. Eyes!  
March 31 - Our Easter egg masterpiece, created by me and my
sister Michele.  My nephew Dr. C also helped.

    Fun pictures of your month of March. Was that really a month ago? I love that stained glass window. Where is it? I wish they still made church buildings like that. And that blue eyed nephew is adorable!
    So did you and Danny get the shoes?

      The stained glass window is in the LDS 10th ward building in SLC. I wish they still made our church buildings like that as well. Also, Danny got the shoes, I didn't. They just didn't fit me right.

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

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

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
