My Latest Obsessions

Well here is the start of my daughter's bow collection. I went over to my sister's house last week and she showed me how to make them and ever since then, I've been obsessed with buying ribbon and making these things. Its been a little hobby for me and something to keep me busy.

My sister-in-law showed me how to make these fabric flowers. They're so fun to make and really easy! My family keeps asking me how many bows and flowers can your poor baby wear...."One in every color and one for every outfit" ha ha

And here ya go Natalie a pic just for you!! A couple of weeks ago, I went to enrichment in St. George and I made this car-seat canopy It turned out better than I had expected expecially for how long its been since I've even touched a sewing machine.

Zion's National Park


The weekend before we moved, Kyle and I decided to take a trip to Zion's. We lived what....30 minutes from the park...and we waited until the last weekend to go. It was so pretty and we wished we would have gone a couple more times earlier in the year, but oh well.

The trail was about 3 miles total to make it to the last pool and back.

The 2nd pool



Yea we made it to the top...the third and final pool. I thought it would be a little more exciting than this, but it was still awesome.



The first pool. This one by far was my favorite :) It was so pretty.

Moving...Big thumbs down!!!

Just for the record I hate moving and if I could avoid it at all cost....I would! For those of you who didn't know, Kyle got transferred at Goldenwest up to the Clinton office. So within a two week time period we are up North once again. Its good to be home, but of course I will always miss certain things about St. George. Kyle's parents came down and we loaded a whole trailor full of stuff (Thank goodness we don't have that much stuff yet). They stayed and helped me finish cleaning the house while Kyle went to work and I'm so grateful for their help. On the way up Kyle's stupid car gave us trouble again, and we had to replace 2 more tires :( but we're here now and hopefully everything will work out....

One year Older.....and Maybe Just a Little Wiser

Happy 23rd Birthday to me....Yipee!! I spent the morning laying by the pool, and then unfortunately I had to go into work.. bummer. But it was still a great birthday and my wonderful, thoughtful husband made it really special. His rendition of the Happy Birthday song is amazing...you should ask him to sing it for you one time. ha ha He came and picked me up after work to take me to dinner. He surprised me (he's always good at that) and took my car to get the windows tinted. I loved it!!! I've been wanting to do it for a while and just haven't gotten around to it. Here are a couple of pics from my fun night!

Well we thought we would try Made it Brazil cause we've heard its really good....we walked through the door and it smelled like road-kill...it was like they had a deer hide burning in the kitchen and we both couldn't take the smell...so we left :)

We ended up eating at Pancho and Lefty's and it was sooooo good!!!

Me and my cute husband!! He is so sweet to me and I just love him to death!!!

Yea!!! my new car windows, a little shopping and an oreo shake...not to bad of a birthday

Thanks to everyone who sent me a text and called :) I really appreciate it.

Kale and Kayla's Wedding

Last weekend we headed up north for Kyle's brother's wedding. We spent Friday night hanging out with Klint and Christine in Draper. We ate at the cheesecake Factory, um their cheesecake..... definitely not $7 worth, but what do I know, I'm a tight wade now days. We went back to Klint and Christine's apartment and watched Taken. I love that show! Saturday we got up early and headed to the temple for the wedding. It was my first time actually sitting through a sealing and it crazy to think that only 9 months ago it was Kyle and I were the one's getting married! After the reception Kyle and went to a Chinese Market and bought some of my new favorite candies there called Hi-Chews and they taste a lot like mambas. Anyway we went to the luncheon and the reception afterwards in Midway. Saturday night I went to Park City with Corey Ann and had a girls night out. Yea!!! Sunday was a crazy day and we spent all morning pulling sick cows out of the swam and vacinating the herd. We ended up losing two of them to some weird fever. I about passed out when one of the sick cows took a nose dive right on its neck! And to think I wanted to be a vet. After the cows were done we went to the house and had a BBQ, then Kyle and I headed back to St. George. I think I cried for about 3 1/2 hours on the way home and Kyle was about to kill me. Its hard leaving my family and I really miss home :( My niece Kira wouldn't even look at me to say bye. I think she's mad at me for abondoning her and moving...it about broke my heart!!!

Just the two of us :)

Cute girls...and the one on the end with a nice little belly starting to show

I swear Kyle and his brother Klint are always doing some crazy pose in pictures

The New Mr. and Mrs. Tanner

Chillin at the temple

Oh I love this man!!!

A little Baby News!!!

Well I figured its about time I let everyone know! Kyle and I are having a baby girl. My due date is October 9th.... We are so excited!!

Yeah I found my camera and haven't Blogged since February so here goes!!! Ha ha

On Sunday after church, Kyle and I decided to go spend the night at his parents house in Monroe ( it's a little town out of Richfield) It was kind of random and spur of the moment, but we had so much fun just spending time with each other. It was about a 2 hour drive to get there. We ate dinner, watched TV, went to bed then got up the next morning and came home.

Oh and this was the fun part! We took Kyle's old beater car and we were about a mile from the exit when the tire started making funny noises. We were both laughing so hard cause we were saying how funny it would be if we broke down...and we did. Luckily the tire didn't pop so we were able to drive on it. We were going about 10 miles and hour and the last 4 miles home took us about a half an hour. But we were grateful we made it home safe cause it could have been a lot worse. Good times!

Do I always look this hot....Well what can I say I'm just blessed ha ha

Last Thursday, we hung out with some of Kyle's buddies from Heber. We ate dinner then headed to Fiesta Fun. We hit a couple round in the batting cages, then went and watched She's the Man at Craig and Lisa's house.

Kristin and I with our killer batting helmets on

Lookin Hot!

A couple of weeks ago, my parents and Jaxon came down to visit. It's always good to have family it town and we had so much fun while they were here. We went 4-wheeling, had a BBQ in the park and even went clay pigeon shooting in Mesquite.

Wow honey you looks so tough!!! :)

Here's Jaxon getting ready to shoot.




During spring break, Kyle and I went to southern California. It was a lot of driving, but good to get a way.

Outside the Hotel Coronado


We stayed in this little town called Poway. And we managed to pose for a couple pictures at the local park.


We went to Sea World for a day and I don't know why I didnt' take more pictures but the Sting Ray pool was all I got, so this is us touching the Sting Rays.


This was Kyle first trip to Sea World and he was just like a little kid at the candy store :) !

This is San Diego Bay from Coronado Island.


For Valentine's Day, Kyle and I went to Provo and ate dinner at the Brick Oven. (I love that place) Then we had to show off are amazing ice skating skills at 7 Peaks!!! We had a blast
