I am so blessed to have found someone who loves me as much as he does. He is everything to me, and my best friend. I was asked if I've reached the point yet where I can't believe I've lived so long without him, and my immediate response was YES! I can't imagine what life would be like without him. He always seems to make me laugh, no matter the situation and how hard I try to resist. I find myself thinking of all the silly things he says and does, and I just laugh out loud. He is truly my rock, my partner, and my life.

I love him so much.

Weekend in Phoenix

At Christmas we were told that our niece, Sarah, was going to be baptized in January. She really wanted her Uncle Justin to be there. So the decision was a "no brainer." We were going to be there.

Since we had been there just a short 3 weeks before January 16th, we were determined to make this trip as cheap as possible.

We rented this.


(Don't be fooled. Horrible thing to drive. No guts.)

And we drove to Phoenix on Jan. 15th. It was fun. I love road trips with Justin because I get him ALL TOO MY SELF! Not that I really have to share ever, but this really is just "me and Justin time." My favorite time.

The Baptism was wonderful! Sadly I didn't take pictures of the lovely Sarah, but Here is a picture of our Family in Arizona.

(Front Row: Jessica, Jarom, JD, Sarah, Anna.
Back Row: Me, Justin, Sherrie, and Wayne.)

We love going to see them. We wish we were closer :-(

The girls just adore Justin. Especially this little one, Jessica.

We were so happy that we got to spend a weekend (other than a regular holiday) down with family. It was great to be there for Sarah. She's so sweet, and loving. She's a wonderful big sister, and such a great example for Anna and Jessica. We're very proud of her and her decision to be baptized.

Here's a picture of us and the girls.

From right to left.
Jessica, Anna, and Sarah

Sadly, our fun weekend getaway came to a close. We had to pack up, get on a plane, and go home. Thank goodness we didn't have to drive all the way back to SacTown. We got to live the car in Phoenix! Strangely this was the cheapest way to do it. I'm sure there will be many more times that this happens. HA!

We love and miss our family in Phoenix VERY VERY MUCH!
Someday, we'll all be closer.

Way too Early for Allergies

Which mean this...

And now I need to find a decent decongestant.

You will never hear me say, " I WANT IT TO RAIN NOW!!!!"
This is because I don't like it. However, when my life revolves around ↓↓↓↓


it only means one thing...

I WANT IT TO RAIN NOW!!!!!!

Alight. I'll live. I know.
But seriously! It's only FEBRUARY!

What happened to allergies showing up in late March?

Our VERY Exciting 09!

I promised an over view.

So... HERE IT IS!
(sorry if it's so long that it makes you want to cry. blame me. i'm the one not keeping up with the blogging)

I'm going straight to April 18th.
The most amazing, and happiest day of our lives.
(our wedding day, of course!)

This is Mr. and Mrs. Justin Mack!!!

These are all the people who LOVE us!

Then we went on our FUN (FREE) Honeymoon to San Diego!

We stayed in this awesome condo. Courtesy
of my Hubby's family friends.
(sorry about the color... playing with camera)

We got to go to the beach...

...to the zoo...(i was so excited about the ZEBRA'S!!!!!)

...Justin stood next to a
gigantic tree!...
(we rode bikes everywhere... needless to say, I'm HORRIBLE AT IT! it was fun though.)

...then we had to come home to our apartment and OPEN PRESENTS, and hit the just married, busy, working life, bliss.

Then we hit 4th of July (we're horrible picture takers... that's why we jump from april, to july).
We took Jenna and Ryan, my sister and brother, up to Tahoe to the cabin. It was a great weekend away and did lots of fun stuff. We even joined all the crazy drunks in South Tahoe and watched all the fireworks over the lake (sorry, no fireworks pictures). We went hiking and all that jazz... here are pics!

(that water... not warm... but makes for a beautiful waterfall... pictures just aren't the same)

Around that same time we got to go to Lake Tahoe for the day. We floated the Truckee River. Ate cold spaghetti sandwiches (i swear they were good). And we jumped off the pier into the lake! It was so fun! Especially since we got to do it all with our friends the Green's and the Mortimer's (pictures below!)

(this is Liz and Bob Green)

(obviously this is us...)

(this is Katie and Jo Mortimer)

There is already a post all about Justin's 30th BIRTHDAY!!!! Take a look at that for the scoop there... sorry, too lazy to post more about that since the thing is HUGEMOUNGOUS!

*** SIDE NOTE ***

Justin, Liz, and I got to go see Keith Urban! LOVE HIM!

*** SECOND SIDE NOTE ***

On the way to the Temple one evening,
This happened...

So... needless to say... we didn't make it to the temple...
But because that happened...
this happened...

Yes... Justin got a little bit of an upgrade in the car department... we did get an AMAZING deal, and we both are IN LOVE with it. SO... it was necessary.

(i wasn't sure where either one of those "side notes" fit in... I know it was after we got married and before New Years...)

Anyway, back to our year.

Summer came to a close and it was Halloween!!! We went to our ward Halloween Party a few days before and then went to the Mortimer's for the actual night. We also went to Chipotle because if you "dressed up like a burrito" or in other words "wrapped a piece of foil on your arm" you got a FREE BURRITO! Since when is ANYTHING EVER FREE! It was great.

Yes. This is a half eaten cookie in Bob's Pocket.

It's really too bad we didn't realize that we were supposed to dress up for the Ward Party. Otherwise, we probably would have dressed up a little bit.

I love when it gets to be the Holiday season.

Then Thanksgiving came around. I do not have pictures though. We went to my parents this year. Mom makes an AMAZING Turkey dinner. Jenna came home, and the Gade's (my cousins and Uncle), and my Papa were all there for dinner. It was really nice, and super low key.

*Special Note*
Christmas came a little early for us. We were trying to sell Justin's piece of crap crashed car on CraigsList. We had no luck trying to do it ourselves, so a family friend (Tom Evans- aka A Miracle Worker) helped sell it for us. Ok, actually he did all the hard work. Well one day I came home from work and found this all over my BEAUTIFUL Christmas tree (I LOVE MY CHRISTMAS TREE!!!!!)

Yes. That is a WHOPPING $600 that we got for our
CRASHED PATHFINDER!

Thank goodness for Tom.
Justin is so funny. Hanging money all over the tree.
It stayed like that for a couple days.

Then for Christmas we went to Arizona to be with Justin's family. I just love them. They are so wonderful and I am so blessed to have married into such a WONDERFUL Family. We arrived on Wednesday and got to stay through Monday. It was great. We had so much fun. The girls got a trampoline, dolls, and all kinds of fun stuff. Christmas is so much better when you have little kids to share it with. Saddy, no pictures of this wonderful time in AZ. I think the next post has pictures of all of his family.

Here is a picture of our fabulous tree without
all the money on it. (don't you just love the
zebra tree skirt!? That was so Justin's idea)

Anyway... Then we hit New Years! Again... no pictures. But we spent it in Lincoln with the Green's playing games, watching movies, and just LIVIN' IT UP!!!

That was our 2009... umm... in a nut shell???

Now. Lets see if I can keep up with 2010!
