Happy Anniversary to us

It has been 5 years that we have been married.  To me it just feels like everything that happened prior to getting married wasn't really life and so my whole "life" I have spent with Greg and I love that.  We decided to go to Richfield to spend the night for our anniversary (I know-what world travelers we are).  I was actually nearly as giddy as I was when we first got married to have this little getaway and we didn't even have much planned.  I guess I just needed it.  We stayed at Greg's parents house in Monroe.  We went shopping all afternoon and by we I mean me and Greg had to just wait patiently and push the cart.  We went to DI which is always my favorite.  We found some cute stuff for our baby boy and lots of other goodies.  We ate pizza which is one of the only things I have craved all pregnancy.  We also went to the dollar store.  My friend Allisha told me about a tradition her and her husband have for their anniversay which is to go to the dollar store and buy each other gifts and then come up with cute sayings to go with them.  I wanted to try it and though Greg was hesitant, he did an awesome job.  It was actually one of my most favorite parts of the outing because it made us be creative-especially my husband.  We watched the movie "We Bought a Zoo" which was really cute and slept in the next morning until 9am which we might not have done since our actual honeymoon.  Then we went to the Manti temple for a session which was also wonderful being in the temple we got sealed in on the day we were sealed.  I felt overwhelmed with gratitude the whole 2 days to be married to such a wonderful man and have a beautiful family.  I love you my honey bunny.

Our Anniversary

4 years-it's been 4 years.  This year we decided to get brave and leave the girls with Grandma and go away overnight.  The girls were really excited to sleep over at Grandma's house so we weren't nervous to leave them at all.  In fact I was so excited we might as well have been going to Hawwai (which I ask Greg to do nearly once a week-one day he says we will).  Anyway we went to Manti and did sealings at the temple, went bowling, ate out, watched a movie, sat in the hot tub, slept in, did a temple session, went shopping (Greg even went to the craft stores with me) and ate some more.  It was so fantastic.  Everything about the little trip reminded us of our wedding and honeymoon and how in love we were then and we still are.  Thanks for 4 great years babe.
