Happy Birthday Alden!

Happy Birthday Sweetheart! Thank you for making me laugh, smile, and be oh so happy :)

You wanted a duck for you birthday... Maybe when you are older ;)

One day I told you we should make some art for our house, I came home to this. Haha. love you.

You decided to make cookies for me and my roommates.... ha. The amazing thing is somehow you were able to fix it and in the end we ate delicious cookies!

When we decided to take our first trip to Idaho you went out and bought a FULL cowboy outfit. Then you wore it the entire 4 hour drive... even when we left at 10 at night.

You proved yourself worthy to date an "Idaho" girl.

You took me skydiving and held my hand ALMOST the whole time :)

You kissed me on the Grand Canyon

You took me to beautiful Monterey for my Birthday!

You carry me on your back :)

You treat me like a queen!

Happy Birthday Alden. You are the best husband I could have asked for. You make me happier than I ever could have hoped or dreamed to be. Love you.

Murder, Mystery, and Hippies

Alden and I attended our first murder mystery party.
It was quite fun. Alden was "Pony" the commune rebel.
I was Judy, the bass player in the band Marmalade Skies,
and the recent widow to whose murder we were solving.

It was a night full of slander, cheating, lying and murder!
Oh and great food :)

*Thank you Candace and Beau for Hosting a great party and
Summer and Thad for letting us have it at your house.

Happy Novemeber!

Today starts my favorite time of the year. Bring on the food, family and good times.
So many things to look forward to this month.
Alden's birthday is just three days away (Yippee!)
Laie Hawaii Temple will be dedicated on the 21st. (Along with my brother Garett's birthday and Alden's sister Addie's Birthday)
Alden and I will be flying over to the big island to celebrate Thanksgiving with his Granny.
And much much more!

ps. Just over a year ago Alden told me he loved me for the first time on this very log.
