More Pumkin Walk...

At the Pumpkin Walk Toni, Marc, Jon and I played with the cut outs.. the kids had nothin' on us!!

Phlebs, Pumkins, and Dates...

So many things have happened!! To start off Jonathan came home from work today and wanted to go out on a date. He was totally cute about it. We got ready and he kept repeating it as a date and thanking me for going with him, like when we were dating. We went to Texas Roadhouse, and it reminded us why we don't go out on Saturday nights! The place was packed and it took over an hour to be seated! Then he brought be home and we watch The Proposal, after the movie he gave me a hug and said "Thank you for going out with me." then casually turned his head and BELCHED... and we were back to good old being married. I love him, and I couldn't stop laughing, but YUCK!!

Jon and I carved our pumpkins this last week! We started carving with one of those carving knifes. But Jon thought he needed a "Man Knife". Well guess what, yep.. Jon broke my knife.. Guess he was a little too much Man for the knife!
Jonathan was offered a PRN job at the hospital as a Phleb!! We are so excited for him to start there on Monday! It will be interesting to see how it goes the days he works downstairs and we work together.

Last night Jon and I went to the Pumpkin Walk. It was a lot of fun! I had never been before.

Big Update...

Since so many things have happened since the wedding that I haven't been able to update on. I am just going to do a quick overall. Jon and I have the oportunity to go to Oregon with my side of the family right after we were married. We had such a good time!! We went river boating on speed boats, gold panning (which turned into salamander hunting), and watched the fourths fire works on the beach!!

We also able to go see the redwoods!! Those trees are huge! I was always told how big they are, but you dont really understand until you are standing at the base of one looking up into the tops. It was so much fun!!

Jon and I went back to the camping spot we camped at right after our wedding. We both love camping, it's a good thing cause everyone found out that Jon loves it so we got tons of camping stuff for our wedding! Its been great! We are set to go camping for a long time. Aside from a pad to sleep on, but it just makes out bed that much more comfortable to come home to!

We were called to callings in our ward. Both of us are ward Librarians.. Jon thinks it's awesome, he just wants to sit in the library and color. Then I have another calling in the Enrichment commity. We will see how that goes, sounds like fun. But I have to confess, I don't think I have ever been to an enrichment night.

Wedding Pictures...

We got our pictures back, so we wanted to post a few.. Thanks again Celeste and Kellee!! We love them!

Lots of the kids ended falling asleep! They are so cute! This only shows two of them, but we have pictures of all the kids, and they all fell asleep! SO CUTE!!

We have a cryer! One of my favorites!

All Riley wanted to do for a while was hang out with Jonathan. It was so cute!! He just didn't want anything to do with him once we wanted him in pictures.

It took forever for us to get this picture.. but we still had to have a little help from my Dad to get it!

Hopefully we will post some more some time, There are so many we like! Enjoy!

An Amazing Man....

You know.. I know Jonathan is a great guy, that's why I married him. But every once in a while I have to take off my hat and give many kudos to his parents!! Two days ago Jonathan had to pick me up from work. When he got there you could tell he'd had the day off and had been home alone ALL day! (torture for the kid) He was all over the place! All the way home he kept saying, "I can't wait till you get home and see!" Coming from Jon, that could mean anything, a very very broad range of very different things!! I walked in the house (I was in a hurry to get showered and ready to go help with a carnival for kids)and noticed the living room was clean, aside from the papers on the fire place, it was spotless. Even vacumed! I thanked him and walked back into the bedroom to grab some clothes, and our room was so nice!!! All the clothes that he hadn't had time to wash were ready to go in the bed was made and vacumed!! I LOVE THIS BOY!! It was so nice to come home to everything clean. Then to top it all off the next moring we both had a day off. And he got me a drink and a blanket, sat me down on the couch and started finishing all the laundry he had started the day before, he did the dishes yesterday as well. What a guy! Makes me feel so useless... but it was so nice to not have to worry about it all.
That night we went to the kids carnival, we were helping with. It was a fun night! And to top it all off, I got to go home to a clean house and a made bed to crawl into.. NOTHING BETTER!!

Victory...

So just so you all know.... I'm moving up in your blogger world. I totally just figured out how to change my background.. I know, I know you all are looking at it going.. Uh.. That's not THAT hard. Well for me, (I'll Admit it) it was. The first step is admitting the problem. Not the cutest background in the world. But I think I'm happy with myself enough that I actually did it, That it can stay for a while!

HIGH FIVE!!!

If It's Not One Thing..... It's Another...

Jon and I were so excite to hear he PASSED his test!!! Now only one more test to go tomorrow. Everyone cross your fingers!!
But to bring down the mood from that we have been spending a lot of time at the hospital with my Dad. He was admitted early monday morning around 3 AM, after sitting in the ER for 3 hours while my Mom was trying to convince them that something more was wrong than just muscle spasm's. When the doctor finally ordered the CAT scan like my mom had been asking for. They found two blood clots in his lungs. Last night he was moved to ICU, but things are looking up. He may be starting to get an pnuemonia but we are hoping he will be back to medical soon.
It is so hard seeing him like that. He could hardly breath for a bit there. You can tell he is in a lot of pain.
It makes me so gratefull for the family I have, Not because one is in a bad state. But because when my Grandpa found out, he and my Uncle were up at the hospital early monday morning to give him a blessing. They are so caring! My grandma has been great to talk to when Jon isn't around.
But like I said, Jon passed his test so with the bad comes the good! I am so proud of him! He was so nervous! He came home thinking he was going to fail. So one more tomorrow and WHEN he passes he will be a certified EMT-B. Love you Jonny!! Good job, and Good Luck!!
