Up in Real Life

If you've seen the movie "Up" you'll know how adorable their little house is. Well, someone who has wayyyy too much time and money on their hands built a house that totally mimics it, and it's here in Utah; only about a half hour away. We just enjoyed ourselves going to see it and for free too. :) So fun! 

Us and our future house ;) 

Cute close up







They had 2 rooms built for kids in the Make a Wish foundation :) 

This is the other room for the Make a Wish foundation girl 

They put her as the princess, so cute :)

Life is busy but life is fun

Just letting everyone know we're alive and BUSY! Being a 1st grade teacher is a ton of work and so much fun. I adore those kids and I hope they're learning to like me. :) Tyler started school up again while also working. We've managed to stay busy while also catching up with old friends and spending time with family. We also had the exciting experience of welcoming our new nephew, Jaden Jensen, into this world. Tyler's older brother, Kyle and his wife Shannon are the proud parents. :)


First week of school 
Went to a friend's wedding. Congrats to Tyson and Lynnie.

Me and some old friends dancing at the wedding. 

 Wendy and I had a blast at the wedding. 

I threw a birthday party for Brianne!  

Some of our old friends all came and it was so fun.
Here's Bri, Cory, Curtis, and Me acting like children. 

Cory, Curtis, Dan. I love having lifelong friends!

Bri, Me, Cori, Alyssa, Andrea 

Happy Birthday Bri-Bri!


We've been going to the Jon Schmidt concert for 9 years now! Here we are waiting. 

We had so much fun. Love these girls. 

My mommy came too 

So did the fabulous Ally Best 

And my big brother and his wife. I forgot to get a picture with her
(she was at the restroom or something at this time).

Gorgeous sunset!

Tyler helped Jayden learn to play baseball better. 

Kaylie making KacyAnn dizzy haha. 

LOVE THIS! Welcome to the world, Jaden :) 

On a date night together. Couldn't be happier!

Avoiding Homework.

So far my Summer vacation has been boringly filled with college homework. I'm finishing up my last semester at UVU while also trying to get my classroom put together and having fun! I have been able to squeeze in some fun, like this weekend. I ignored my homework and focused on relaxing. My friend Katie and I stayed up util 12:30 a.m. working on fun projects for my classroom which was a hilarious blast. And my Dad took me and my siblings + spouses wave running at Deer Creek! It was HEAVENLY. I love being out on the water/with my family. I wish I had another month of just fun, but behold, there are first graders waiting for me to teach them in a few weeks.

And so we'll begin with Summer 2011

Well, here I am, losing sleep in an attempt to start blogging again. I will probably have no more than 5 followers but my dearest friend, Aubrey Lee, practically put our friendship on the line if I didnt' start this up again! ;) It's going to be a work in progress, but here it is. I'll just start with the here and now- Summer!




For this next one, I'd like to share with you the acrostic poems we made for each other recently:
Musical Electrifying Literal Impulsive Sexy Sensitive Adorable
Tough Youthful Loving Exceptional Ridiculously-good-looking


Tyler and I moved in with my Mom and it has been a HUGE stress reliever for us all.
Here was my first Relief Society activity with her, it was hilarious.






And lastly, I am going to be a first grade teacher doing an internship this coming school year! My amazing mother in-law, who lives in Cali, gave me and bought me everything for my classroom. I can't even express how grateful I am for her being so giving. She, my awesome husband, my brother in-law, and I spent 4 days putting my classroom together. My good friend Katie also came up one day and helped me put up my final bulletin boards which was so helpful. I'm SO grateful for all their help!
