4 Wonderful Years!!

Yesterday, November 19th was our 4 year anniversary!! I love celebrating our anniversary, it helps me remember all the reasons I fell in love! We have had a great first four years filled with great memories. It is so nice to know that you always have someone to share your experiences with. I have been so blessed, Wayne is such a great man. He is a wonderful father and a caring husband. He is always so forgiving and patient with me. Yesterday Wayne had to work and then he had school, so we didn't get to spend much time together. We did get to eat a nice dinner together, I made a honey roasted ham for us. We really celebrated last weekend. Wayne's parents were nice enough to come out and watch Apri for us for a night. Wayne planed what he called "A night of remembrance". I was very impressed with his plans!! First we went to Applebee's because that is where we went on our first date, it is also where we ate the night he proposed to me. Next we went to a movie because that is what we did the first night we hung out. Then we spent the night at the Hilton, which is where we spent our honeymoon night. We had a nice time!! It was the first time we had spent a night alone since Apri was born!! We missed her but it was really great to just spend some time alone. All in all it was a great anniversary!!! I am so grateful to be married to such a great guy!! Here's to four more wonderful years!!

Remeber When??

Happy Halloween!!

We had a great Halloween, but it was a really busy weekend. We carved pumpkins with my family on Wednesday. It was great to get together! I must say it wasn't quite the same this year. We missed Shawn's family they have hosted the Halloween carving party for...well I don't know how long? Seems like forever!! So we really missed them. Apri was totally disgusted by the pumpkin guts! Kayla and Megan would pretend to put some on her and she would freak out! The pumpkins turned out pretty good if you ask me. On Friday Apri and I were Trick-or-Treating all day long. We went with our ward play group all morning then after quick nap we rushed to the ward trunk-or-treat. Then when Wayne got home we continued trick-or-treating all night. I just loved watching her reaction when she received a sucker. Her whole face would light up and she would immediately try to rip the wrapper off. I can't belive she didn't get sick she ate so much candy! It was fun but exhausting...I couldn't believe how tiered I was when we got home. Now we have more candy than we can eat! The thought of candy makes me sick right now...even chocolate!! Then on Saturday we hosted a party at our house with just a few friends. We had a murder mystery dinner party. It was so much fun!! I am so mad that I forgot to take pictures that night. All and all we had a spooktacular Halloween!!
