Gus is such a weirdo. He loves his bed...but he always ends up upside down in it or hanging halfway over the edge. He has a little fleece blanket that has ties that sits over his bed and he always chews on one of the ties, just one. Even after his blanket is washed he can still find his favorite tie, it is the goofiest thing. He seriously makes me laugh so hard, and if I am having a bad day he can cheer me up pretty fast. We love having him as part of our little family...and I think he likes it here.

How HANDSOME is my husband? I just wanted to post about Todd and how wonderful he is. I just adore everything about him. I love the way he is so nice to try not to wake me up when he is getting ready for work in the morning, and how he always comes over to tell me that he is leaving. I love that even though I am probably driving him crazy with looking at houses and getting my hopes up about every one I see, he never makes me feel like I am stressing him out about it. I love that he is so kind to everyone. I love that he thinks I am funny, cause really I am not. I love that he motivates me to be a better person. I love that he is always willing to help people. I love that he lets me watch my TV shows...even though most of them are pretty dumb, I just get sucked in! I love that he gets along well with my family. The list could go on for days, but I just wanted to let him know how much I appreciate everything he does for me and how I am so glad that we have eternity to spend with each other, because one lifetime is simply not enough for the two of us. I love you Todd, always and forever.

Here is just a little bit of what we have been up to these past couple of months, just in case anyone was beginning to think we fell off the earth:










Jazz game against the Houston Rockets, fourth row! It was so sweet! It is so crazy how tall they all are, even the "short ones" tower over me. It was such a cool game to be at! We are sad the season is over and cannot wait to start watching them in the fall...as long as they keep my favorite Ronnie Price! (We also got to see Kyle Korver give his shoes way to a girl standing 2 feet away from us...Todd at least got to give him five and tell him good game.)

This is a picture of the turkey hunt. Todd's dad Jay and uncle Justin both drew out this year and the guys all had a wonderful time in the rain (and snow) hunting for their turkeys down south.


We must not have noticed that Gus had seemed to add on quite a bit of weight over the winter months, but it ended up not being weight at all and was really just fur! He looks like he lost about half of himself and looks a bit like a different dog really. He is loving his shorter haircut for the summer though and doesn't seem to get so hot outside. Here is the before and after:






Last but not least, we went to WICKED! I absolutely loved it. I was so excited about going and couldn't wait to go up to Capitol Theatre to see it last Wednesday and had been listening to the soundtrack more than usual to get myself excited for it. Todd was even so nice and took one of his finals for the semester a day early so he could go up with me and two of my little sisters, Emily and Mackenzie, what a wonderful husband he is!

We are just looking forward to the summer and being able to have Todd at home during the nights. He is excited about his break from school and deserves to have a little time off! I can't believe that it is almost Strawberry Days! This year has really flown by, its crazy to think that in just a few short months we will have been married for two full years. It seriously feels like we just barely got married!
