Changes! And Milestones

Life has its twists and turns and it also has its plateaus. Lately it seems like it is the season for changes, especially during all these graduations filling our college campuses!

Although not a change but a milestone Josh and I celebrated our First anniversary! Although it is just a notch on our way to....well...forever, we were so excited. They say that your first year is the hardest....well if thats the case bring on the next 100 because that was the funnest most rewarding year of my life yet! Josh is such a goof-ball so he makes me laugh and he also makes me want to be a better person all the time. I hope and will try to make the rest of our year as good if not better than all the others. On our anniversary we read all of the tags on our "wishing tree" and laughed as well as realized how amazing our family and friends are, we felt so loved. If you didn't recieve or haven't felt thanked enough for all your support from our wedding....THANK YOU!!!

I wanted to take 1 year pictures but it so happened that it landed on the same week as family pictures for the sharps so we took advantage of that and Joe and Debbie were so kind to let us get a couple of "couple" shots and OF COURSE Josh was a dork the whole session but, it turned out pretty good and the family shots are adorable especially of my sister in law Meagan. She is stunning! I will do a seperate post for family pictures!

 One of the biggest changes is we are moving! Currently we are in my Grandma Lynn's House and the Sharps until ours is ready in July. It is so nice to have family that is willing to help out while we are in between. After a lot of  house hunting a couple offers and ALOT of help from Josh's parents we finally fell in love with our cute new home. I call it my "Barbie House" because of all the colors but also because it just doesn't feel real yet, it still feels like we are playing house. We can't wait to be in!



Meet my Barbie House!!!
Jakers Participated in Mr. Lehi which was hillarious and he Graduated!!! I love my best buddy! I can't believe he is so old! I still picture him as my cute little 4 year old brother...Congrats Jakey!

If you have been following you already know Josh never is serious for pictures:)

Josh Turned 23!!! We had his Michael Jordan party and I got to make another cake! Ever since the wedding cake I got to make for Jenna and Clarks wedding I was wanting to make another cake and this was a fun opportunity!
WE had so many AMAZING friends and family come over to celebrate Josh's big 23! For those who missed the picture we love you too! (again he just can't be serious for pictures!:))

Ta Da!!! We're Back!

Wowzer I haven't posted anything on here for what seems like a decade! The reason can be summed up in one word... School! I had an upper level English class mixed with Anatomy and a nutrition class. That anatomy class kicked my butt but I loved it! I even applied to be an anatomy TA and will start probably end of June...I am just a little addicted!
Josh and I are also in summer classes which are just the greatest! We get to sit inside all day while everyone is enjoying the weather. Aren't you jealous?
Well we haven't spoken since DECEMBER the season is over and we are about to start a new one so here is a quicker than quick recap
 
We never got to share our first Christmas ornament from Grandma and Grandpa Wilson (Lisa's Parents)
 
 
We celebrated our first year engaged mark:) We will find any reason or excuse to celebrate!
 
Celebrated Valentines Day! Brandon and Tyler......I mean B&T Escourts Picked us up for our date complete with a red carpet and drinks and snacks in the back seat topped of with a love mix. ( I am going to Miss Brandon!)


I know its not the best image but it was the only one I had :)
 
We Snuck away to St. George to Watch our best bud Kimball play BYU-HI and to get a little warmth

I followed the team to Vegas for the WCC championship, a heartbreaker but, still turned into a fun trip.


this guy was hilarious trying to sell us music ended up giving us a free cd





I loved meeting up with my uncle mo!

Morgan took us out to the best breakfast and I had orange juice in a martini glass:)


this store is my heaven

 Uncle Mo bought me a crepe from the really cool dessert place in Bellagio.
 
Then among the midst of anatomy and other classes and after watching our team play an amazing first couple of rounds of the NIT at home,  I snuck away to NY for the NIT final four tournament! I had never been before so I was wide eyed the entire time!
We had the most amazing Plane Food on the charter, once in a lifetime experience!
 Sadie, Sarah, Aubrey and I at Grand Central "Terminal" (station)



 central park! My favorite!

 The Met!

 The boys got to go to an extremely nice dinner and we thought they looked so handsome so we had to take a pic. Of course my husband has an apple in his mouth.




 The past couple pictures were from Ripley's Believe it or not museum that was one of my favorite things because almost the whole team went and we had a blast together!
 

 My first experience on subways (all drenched)

 One of the new world trade center towers, it was so rainy but I think this was cool!

I don't know about you but I turned 22!


JAKE GOT HIS MISSION CALL!!! I am so excited for him and so proud of him! London is going to be extremely lucky in August!
 
Then we rounded out the season with the Basketball banquet! Such a bitter sweet night to remember our successes and say goodbye to the seniors and their families that we have come to love. I am so proud of Josh and all of his hard work! He really works very hard at everything and it makes me so proud to be his wife.

which brings us to NOW
