Our Special Day

This past weekend Tanner and I celebrated our one year anniversary going through the temple, and making our marriage forever. It was a great experience for both of us. Then on Saturday after we went through the temple we had a party out at my parents house with all our family and friends. It is so awesome to have family and friends that support us in whatever we do. Thanks to everyone for helping with the food. We are glad that you could all share in are special day. I also wanted to tell Tanner that I love very much and that I am thankful that he is my husband. He takes such good care of me, and I am thankful for him. I LOVE YOU TANNER.

I am so glad that we made the choice to go through the temple and be sealed together for time and all eternity. All in all it was a very special and wonderful day for us. Thanks to everyone who shared our special day with us. Love you guys.

Remodel

So this is a little late going up, because we got done with the kitchen last Tuesday, but better late than never. So Tanner his friend Myka and his brother tore the wallpaper off in about an hour on Tuesday. Then on Wednesday Myka and I painted the kitchen a really light minty green color. On Thursday Myka and Tanner started sanding down the cabinet doors and drawers outside. After that they started sanding the cabinets, however those could not come down, and boy what a mess it made. Anyways, on Saturday the boys finally finished the sanding. Then it was my turn. Tanner had to work and I didn't want to stain the cabinets by myself so I called my dad to come down and help. He drove down from Idaho Falls and helped me, we put a couple of coats on and then called it good. On Sunday I had to wash all of my dishes because the dust got everywhere, so after church I started washing the dishes and finally got done at 11:00 pm. Then on Monday I had to stain all of the cabinet doors and drawers which sucked by the way. I ended up getting sick and so it was just not a very fun day. Then on Tuesday I finally got the rest of my house put back together. This remodel was not much fun because all of my kitchen was in my living room, but it was so worth it. Here are so before and after pictures of the kitchen.

Well what do you think let us know. We love it! Tanner and Myka worked really hard on sanding down the cabinets and drawers. My dad my sister Savannah and me worked hard on staining the cabinets. Big thanks to everyone that helped with the kitchen we really appreciate it.

GUESS WHAT

I have the most exciting news I have had in a long time. So back at the beginning of march I had to go to California to go see Allstate's doctor. Well anyways my dad ended up paying for the hotel and the car rental ( which was suppose to already be paid for) and I have been fighting with them to reimburse my dad for the last 4 months. Well guess what they finally did. I got a check in the mail yesterday. Man no wonder everyone says that the are the worst company to deal with. Anyways I just thought that I would share that with you so, hope everyone is doing well.

New Project

SO it's summer now and it is going well. I have started a new project that Jill wanted done. I am ripping all of the wall paper in the kitchen down, repainting, and fixing the cabinets. I am glad that I have this project to keep me busy, because I am so bored. I am still trying to find a job but there are not a whole lot of places hiring. On a good note I think that Allstate is ready to get down to business, IT'S ABOUT TIME. I am just ready for it to be over and done with. Anyways I hope all is well with everyone.

So sorry...

I apologize that I have not put up a new post in a while. Anyways here is what has been happening with us. We have been busy with school, but we are almost done 2 weeks after this week. Tanner has been working a ton so we just haven't had a whole lot of time.
For Easter we had Blake and Alyssa, and they went to church with us. After church we went to Travis and Ryann's for dinner, which by the way Ryann it was very good :). Yesterday after church I talked with the bishop and the are going to make Tanner an Elder on May 17. Also the bishop told me that we could go head and call the temple and set up a time to go through on July 11. We are both really excited, and want to thank all of you for being a good example for us. We love you all. I will let you know the time for the temple as soon as I call the temple. Hope all is well with everyone.

Yea I made it...

I am so excited to not have to go to school next week. It has been very crazy and I am glad for a break. I am going to try to get some cleaning done around the house, and see if I can figure out what is going on with Allstate. I also plan to catch up on some sleep. Other than that no big plans. Hope everyone is doing well. Love you guys.
