Girls Night!

The other night my favorite girls from high school got together for the first time in SUCH a long time for dinner. Oh my goodness, after seeing them reminded me of how much I miss our high school and college days together. I loved our weekend trips down to Dixie to pick up Britt on our way to Vegas, our times in Moab and just our lazy days doing nothing.



It's amazing to me how much we have all grown up. Brittany with her baby Jaxon, Jamie teaching in Italy and Julie working in radiology. You girls are so beautiful and we have to do this much more often!

Go Nate!

This Christmas our gift to each other was finishing our basement. Mostly it was a gift to me because Nate did all of the work. I just followed him around with the broom. I love having such a handy husband. He did all the work himself from the framing to the drywall, except we had such great friends and family who were so awesome to help hang most of the drywall. We also received help from generous gift cards to home depot for birthdays and Christmas from family along the way. We didn't finish the whole basement yet, just the family room part of it. There is still room for a possible bedroom and bathroom.



Our next project... the bathroom! That may be a while... we are having too much fun hanging out in our new media room!




The dogs think we finished it as their play room. This picture is a little out of date already. We moved a couch and our siesta sac downstairs, and Nate mounted our TV on the wall. I am so proud of him and all the work he has done.
