Picture Perfect

Preston and I had some Fall pictures taken in October. We love them! Our friend and photographer Whitney Lewis was able to get us a few of the pictures as a little preview to the shoot this morning. We're looking forward to seeing the rest of the photos next month.



I have a little project in mind that I want to do with these pictures but I'm afraid it won't be executed for a a couple of months. I'll be sure to post pictures when I get going on my project. :)

The Holidays are Upon us

We are very excited for the holidays at our home. Yes, the tree is not only going up this month but this week! Call me crazy but I love Christmas that much. I consider the tree to not only be Christmas decor but Thanksgiving as well. Absolutely essential. I love the feeling of giving and love the tree brings into our home. You can't argue with that!

There is no better time of the year that I love more then the holiday season.

Pup

Our pup isn't so pup like anymore but he always will be in my heart.

We don't feed him anymore so he eats grass now.
We figured it was a good strategy to keep the lawn mowed without having to do more yard work.
haha :) Just kidding.

New Office!

Preston and I have been working on the back room for the last month. We painted it (I'm in love with the color), put a new light fixture in, put baseboards in and curtains (yes, I made those curtains and I'm dang proud of them!). I am also very proud to say that I did all of the caulking :D and dang it looks good. Seamless. You can hardly tell it's there. While Preston was away in Chicago on business I decided to surprise him. He was planning on caulking when he got home and was thrilled to see that the job had already been done when he returned.

Last week I went home to Seattle to visit my parents and while I was gone, Preston decided to do a little surprising himself. He installed the carpet that I had picked out 2 months ago and built me a computer for my photography work.

Take a look at the almost finished product! We've added the keyboard and chair since these photos were taken.

(I know I havn't posted any pictures of Preston and I in awhile. I'll have to do that soon!)

The "Fruits" of Our Labor

We don't really have a garden this year but we have kept up on our apricot tree and white grapes. Yum! Can anyone say, "delicious apricot cobbler and grape juice"?

Strawberry Days!

We are officially members of Strawberry Days!! We have owned our home here in Pleasant Grove for a year now. We're having a blast and making the most of it :D

Last week we went to the Strawberry Days Rodeo with our really great friends, Cherylyn and Matt. We love hanging out with them!! We have some great activities planned for the summer that include camping, hiking, out door movies and more! We're excited for the summer!

I love you, Preston Nilsson!!

Life doesn't get better than you.

Happy 2nd Anniversary!
