Temple Square & A New Bed

We had some amazing weather here the first weekend of Decmeber. We had to take advantage of the not so freezing temps and go look at the lights on temple square. As always it is amazing how many lights they get on those trees. It was beautiful and the boys loved looking at the lights and the fountains. Ryland has been super into taking his camera with him wherever we go and taking his own pictures. (Thanks Nana!) Cam was nice enough to sit in his stroller so we didn't lose him in the extra large crowds of people. And a trip downtown wouldn't be complete without catching a ride in the free trax zone. The boys LOVE the train and think it is the best day ever when they get to go for a ride. Look at that pure joy! And yes Camden made this face basically through the whole thing. He was so curious about every little thing. He loves trains right now, both the boys do. It was a super fun night!! As I am watching it snow outside right now I am glad we got out and enjoyed the warm temps while they lasted. We also decided Ryland had basically out grown his little toddler bed and it was time to get him in something a little bigger. What do you think? This is Rylands toddler bed mattress. He is almsot as tall as it. We brought up the bottom bunk of our bunk bed set and got it all set up for him. He was super excited about his new bed. Lance and Ry trying it out. Yep, much better. And sound asleep in his new bed, and yes with his huge pile of blankets he has to have on him every night. In case you were wondering, Camden is still in the crib. I don't know if I am ready to get him in a toddler bed just yet. He finally is sleeping through the night and I would hate to ruin that by changing his bed....maybe someday! :) One step at a time!

7 years!

Lance and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary on the 3rd, 7 years! Wow, it has been a great 7 years. We had a great time celebrating. We went out to dinner and then we to a play. Thanks Lance for putting up with that, it was fun. And we are more in love than ever! Thanks for a great 7 years Lance. He was so nice and got me these beautiful roses and a nice picture frame that he can write love notes on! :) So thoughtful and for fun, here is some pictures just for good old times sake. This is the first day we met, yes THE very first day we met. We were doing a service scavenger hunt with the ward. We were in the same group and things just went from there. I feel like we clicked instantly, it was meant to be! He sent me a text a couple days later and asked me out on a date to a movie and the rest is pretty much history after that. Here is the night we got engaged, August 10, 2005. And our bridal shots. So pretty, everyone should do bridals, so much less stressful than the wedding day! :) And our actual wedding day. It was super SUPER cold, what did we expect for December 3rd though right? It snowed a couple inches the morning of our wedding but broke out into clear skies after we were married. So a little wind and cold, but no more snow! Then we added little Ryland And now we are our family of 4. Love all of these guys so much. Happy anniversary Lance. You are so amazing and I love you more everyday. Thanks for doing all you do, I wouldn't be where I am today without you!
