Uncle Jeff & Dallin

It was a lot of fun to go and visit Jon and Carrie and Dallin. Jeff and I hadn't seen them since our wedding. Dallin was very cute. He liked to read books and he says woah...and pretty much anything that starts with the letter B...except for my name. He likes to point in the air and he has a laugh that sounds like a grown man. He is a joy to be around.

Quilt

I am making my first quilt. I have made really good progress so far. I finished making all the blocks and now I am piecing them together. I think putting them together is the hardest part because I want it all to match up perfectly. I am really excited about showing it to people but I want to wait until the entire top is put together before I take a picture and post it.

First Year Anniversary

Jeff and I celebrated our first year of being married by eating our cake from our wedding. It was really good. We ate the whole thing. Thanks Tiff! Clint said it tasted better than some cakes taste when they are fresh. After we ate our cake we went to Boise to eat at the Cottonwood Grille. It was very romantic. There was soft music playing and dim lights with candles on all the tables. It was the best food I've ever had and it was so nice and quiet. We had a wonderful evening.

Home Improvement Yakima Style

This weekend Conrad, Sarah, Athena and Jeff and I went to Yakima to Carrie and Jon build a room in their basement for Dallin. It was a lot of work but also a lot of fun. We stayed up late talking which was my favorite part and we got ice cream from a place down the street from them. Jeff and Conrad both got a banana split and it was huge! Dallin was funny to watch, he is a lot different now that he is older. His laugh sounds like a grown man, it's really funny.

Japanese Card

Well I think I found a new hobby. I really like to make these kinds of cards. I think I've already gotten better at it my second attempt. Happy Birthday Nick and Sydney!

A little tast of Japan

Casey, Katie, Clint and Patty spent some time in Japan this summer. They brought back a lot of really neat things along with fun stories. This is a wooden Japanese doll along with a card I made for my nieces birthday that is coming up. Patty got a couple books on how to make cards and other paper crafts, the only problem is, they all in Japanese and they are backwards also. This was my first attempt but I think I did alright.

More wedding pictures

Here are some more wedding pictures. I haven't posted any pictures of our stay in Oregon yet. I still haven't taken any pictures. Jeff and I just got back from Lagoon. It was a lot of fun. We met up with Josh and Megan and had a great day. We also go to see Jeff's sister Vanessa and her family and Jeff's mission companion. Bob Tucuafu. I think that is how you spell it. He grew up in Hawaii! I've started my quilt. I think it is coming along nicely. Jeff and I have been running two miles every other day. I always hate it while I'm doing it but later I feel good. The days we don't run we do Pilates together. When I make some progress on my quilt I'll take some pictures.
