Spring Fever!

I was able to go home to Washington for a week during my Spring Break. Tage wasn't able to get work off so he wasn't able to go :( I did miss him lots! But I did have a blast!! It was so much fun to be with my parents and see my old friends. My mom helped teach me how to make some bows. I definitely got skipped on the creative and crafty gene! I managed to burn myself twice with the hot glue gun, and I wasn't even using it! But my mom is amazing!! You wouldn't believe the stuff she can do! She is working on making a tutorial on how to make bows. She is making like 80 tutorials and they are SO GOOD! I'll give out more info when they are all done. Overall, it was a GREAT vaca! Hopefully Tage will be able to go out there sometime soon.

The tulip fields weren't up yet so we had to do with the daffodils

He loves his Lemons!

Some of the Bows my mom taught me to make, you would die if you saw the ones she did!

Gotta love them! Just dancing to Footloose!

I was able to get back in time for Easter. We had a great Easter! We went to Millers for dinner and had an Easter Egg hunt where us Cliffords made out like bandits! It was such a fun time! We then went over to Tage's aunt and uncles house for dessert and to hang out. It was really fun all being together!

I hope everyone had a great Easter and the Bunny treated you all well :)

He's Still Got it!

So this past 2 weeks has been filled with basketball and then more basketball. Tage had his alumni basketball tourney. Which I guess me being from Washington, I didn't even know those existed for high school ha. But it was a pretty big deal. They started off a little rough and I thought for sure they would be donezo early, but then they picked it up, and ended up winning the whole thing! It was really fun to watch and see that my hubby and his buddies still got it :) Even though the rest of the following week he could barely walk ha.

The boys after the ship

I get to go back home in a few weeks for my spring break and can't wait! I'll post about the trip lata. Other than that, we have just been lovin' life! :)

As of late...

Wow...have we been busy this past month! Tage is loving his job still and is starting to job shadow more and starting to get the hang of it. He is being my little spy too, if he goes into any schools he will meet the principals and ask if they have any PE or Health teaching jobs. We have lucked out one so far :) So cross your fingers!

I am student teaching and I am loving it!! I have started to write as many principals as I can to find a job, I will know more info come march and april, but I pray that I find something! So if anyone hears of anything, let me know :)

I had a birthday back in January and it was a good one! Although I want them to stop coming because I don't want to get any older. Tage took me to dinner and got me One Tree Hill Season 8! He sure knows me well. Then over the weekend my Momma came to town to watch Ollie and so we hung out all weekend and had a BLAST! I want them to move down here sooo bad! Over that weekend, Lisa and Shio came over and spoiled me! They gave me the "royal treatment" I guess you could say. It was a day at the spa. I got massages and pedicures. It was so nice of them! It was fun having a girls weekend!

Last weekend was Ollie's 2nd Birthday! I can't believe how fast that cute little guy has grown! Heidi had a party at Jungle Jim's. It was a really fun place for little kids. We had a blast! I love that little cheek!



I have finally joined an indoor soccer team. It is with some of Tage's friends. And let me just say, I have offically lost ALL my soccer skills ha ha. I haven't touched a ball in 6 months and boy can you tell. I was so embarrassed. The team was probably like, "how did this girl play in college?" And I don't blame them. Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll be able to redeem myself, but we shall see...

Other than that, we are just loving life, having fun, and staying busy! Here are some pix from this past month:

The Holidays!!

We had the best time for the Holidays!! My whole family came down and we did it down in Herriman at my sisters again. We all stayed down there for about 8 days. We had so much fun! We did the Polar Express up in Heber on Christmas Eve and the kiddos loved it! We went to an indoor water park, went to the zoo, the boys did a "boys day" and went to I Fly in Ogden while us girls went shopping and spent their money ;) It was so fun seeing all my family again, I wish everyone lived closer! Hopefully someday and soon they all will. Now it's back to the real world. I start student teaching in a couple weeks, I am excited to start! Tage has been at his job for 2 weeks and likes it a lot! Hope everyone had a great Holiday Season!!

All the kiddos! They are so much fun!

1st Christmas Together :)

Me and Heidi ran into PHIL from Modern Family at the Jazz game....SO COOL!

Cruisin' the Sea :)

So Tage surprised me with me with a cruise! I found out about 2 months ago and we went the 2nd week in December. It was kind of our "late" honeymoon  :) We went with 2 other couples and had a BLAST!! It was a 7 day cruise that went to Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta in Mexico. We went zip lining, parasailing, and ate and ate and ate! Tage gained about 12 pounds haha. But he can just blink and he'll lose it all, so I don't feel bad. I was too scared to even see what I gained, I'd rather just not know. But we had a blast! Tage graduated a few weeks ago and has started his first job so we are so excited! I start student teaching in January and I am really nervous but also excited :) My whole family came down for the holidays, and we have been having SO much fun with them! Tage fits in as if he has always belonged. It's been a blast! I'll post pics soon. Hope you all had a great Christmas!!

Thanksgiving Break :)

So we had a blast this Thanksgiving Break. We spent it with Tage's family up at their cabin in Wyoming. There was lots of snow up there so we had a blast sledding and 4 wheeling. Tage took me 4 wheeling at night and it was so much fun! We probably ate enough food so that I could hibernate for the winter and be fine! There was so much yummy food that I couldn't help myself ha. We played games and made gingerbread houses and watched football all day long. Chelese, Tage's Aunt, and I, went and worked out after thanksgiving dinner because I literally felt like I had to or I was going to explode. It was a tiny gym in the middle of no where because the cabin is in the middle of no where, but we had a blast! On Friday, we went to the local church and most all of us played basketball, it was nice way to burn of some of that turkey :) Overall we had a really good break, and can't wait for Christmas Break with my Fam! :)

Tage having fun on his toy! Even in his shorts.

Turkey Bowl Champs!

Well we had a pretty fun weekend! We played in the Turkey Bowl up here at Utah State. Even tho there was a snow storm the night before, and the field was covered in snow, we still trucked out there to play! We couldn't feel our feet at all, but it was still so fun! Our team name was the Pumpkin Eaters, and we won the Bowl last year. The teams are supposed to have at least 2 girls, but of course most teams didn't. So it was extra fun to beat all the teams with all boys while we had 5 girls and 4 boys :) We won the tourney again to claim Back to Back Champs! Our semi-final game went into double overtime, and I'm not just saying this cause he is my hubby, but Tage was amazing! I was so impressed. He caught the most amazing touchdowns (and knocked down a few peeps on the way). I was very proud of him, I was screaming, "That's my husband!" after he caught the game winning touchdown. It was super fun! We got our names put on the trophy again, got sweatshirts and t-shirts, and they served everyone a yummy yummy turkey dinner after. It was a blast!

This what we had to play in..but it made it even more fun!
