September on Instagram

Sept. 3rd - I was in line at H&M and they had a box of plasters aka
band-aids. It made me so happy to see it called that. It reminded me of
England and all things that remind me of England make me happy.
Sept 3rd - I love movie theater popcorn, I love Danny and I love funny movies.
(Not in that order, though.) So I was pretty happy that Danny was kind enough
to see "Austenland" with me and get me popcorn.  The movie was hilarious. 
Sept 6th - Nothing like a Christmas photo shoot on a warm September
evening.  I felt bad for the kids that had to dress up in winter attire
and pretend to be caroling.  It was already rather toasty.
Sept 7th - Noelle and Jared had us over for dinner and we made
homemade pizzas, yum!
Sept. 14th - I got to babysit this cute baby boy one Saturday morning.
We had hours of fun.
Sept 16th - We went to listen to the Utah Chamber Artists in the
Cathedral of the Madeleine.  The cathedral is absolutely lovely.
Sept 16th - Lovely Cathedral, Lovely Concert.
Sept. 20th - Danny doing what he does so well.  He opened for his friends'
band, The Atomic Thunderlips.
Sept. 21st - View of SLC from Ensign Peak. 
Sept 21st -  Looking up in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.
Sept. 27th - Danny and I went up for the weekend to Park City.  We
had fun at the art gallery stroll.
Sept 30th - I call this photo "Autumn Commencement". I took this picture
on a walk around the park.

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
