Our Newest Little Nephew!

JAIDEN RANDALL TURNER

Dal and Joss had their first little boy on Friday! He was 6 lbs 14 oz and 19" long...he's so small! Joss luckily had a fairly easy labor with no complications and is doing fabulous! She really is so awesome and looks like she could do it all again tomorrow (not that she would want to!). Both parents are beaming and it is so fun to see them so excited. Jaiden is adorable and we already love him like crazy! Congrats again guys!

Here he is!
He wasn't a big fan of us unwrapping him, but we had to see his little body and BIG feet!

So You Think You Can Dance..Dance..Dance..

Last night we went to the So You Think You Can Dance tour! I have been looking forward to this ever since they announced that it was coming to Utah! Blake and Bryndie came with us and Blake wanted to surprise Bryn with the tickets and didn't tell her til last weekend that they were going...it took everything I had to not ruin the surprise (trust me I tried a couple of times on accident, but luckily she didn't catch on)! It was a blast! There is just something about dancing that always gets me so excited and giddy...seriously as soon as I hear the music come on I get goose bumps and immediate smile. I even cried during one of the dances...the Vienese Waltz with Twitch and Kerrington....absolutely amazing! I always leave missing it and wishing I was still dancing. The only downside was the noise level...the music was WAY too loud, coupled with 18 million screaming girls was a bit too much. But I still thought it was fabulous. I heart this show and I heart dancing and I'm so glad I got to go see it! And just a little shout out to my AWESOME husband who came with me. Even though he came on his own accord and wanted to go (I asked him specifically if he wanted to go or wanted me to go with the girls), he wouldn't even like dance if I didn't love it so much and that shows me just how much he loves me and wants to support me! I love him. I posted a few of my all time favorite dances from this show...ones that I could watch over and over and would still get to me.

One year down...a million to go!

Yesterday was our first anniversary! Everyone always says that the first year is the hardest, but if that's the case then we are good to go for the rest of our lives, because this past year has been the best! I'm not going to lie, there has been adjustments, arguments and frustrations but all of that has been so minor compared to how great it has been being married to Travis! Neither one of us is perfect, but I really feel like Travis is perfect for me. He always knows how to get me to smile (even when I dont' want to), he's always making me laugh, he looks out for my well being sometimes when even I don't, from the beginnning he has known just how to love me, he knows what I need and is always there for me, he's patient, funny, and did I mention extremely attractive?! I could go on and on, but I will just say that I love him so so much!
We kind of already celebrated our anniversary a couple weeks ago, so last night we went out to dinner at Biaggi's (so delicious!), ate until we literally couldn't fit anymore in our stomachs, and then walked and shopped around the Gateway. It was a perfect evening and it was nice to go on a date just us (not that we don't love our friends, cause we do and you know we always love hanging out with you guys!). I loved having a day to focus completely on us and how much we love each other...nothing else mattered...it was awesome! Happy Anniversary and I love you baby! Here's to many more years of loving and growing together!

My Friday Night Dates!

Here are the cute little boys, Carter and Max
Max trying to eat the cookie dough out of the measuring cup. This boy is so stinkin cute! He has the most adorable laugh that can put a smile on anyone's face!
Here's Carter...he is mischeiviously (spelling? even a word?) adorable child! He is a great brother to Max and is always taking care of him.
Since football has started, I am now husbandless on Friday nights. Travis has to cover the games and doesn't get home til 10:30ish. Thank you Brighton High School. (So...if anyone wants to hang out, I don't have plans on Friday nights :) Last Friday I went over and watched my friend's two little boys while she went on a ride-a-long with her policeman husband. I promised her son Carter that I would bring him cookies for making strides in potty training, so I took over the ingredients and decided to make the cookies with them. They had so much fun and loved being able to take turns pouring in ingredients! I had a great night with my cute little dates!

Rise and Shout!

Ok, so I know this is a little late, but our BYU football season officially began last weekend! Definitely one of the best highlights of fall, we are excited to spend our Saturdays from now until November cheering on our Cougars! Oh, and I finally got myself my first BYU shirt last week...sad seeing as I went there for 4 years...but now I'm an official fan, better late than never right?!

Help Please!

I am going to ask for some help from my wise blogger friends. That's one of the great things about blogs, you can see something on someone else's blog and think "that's a great idea..I'm going to do that" so rather than search for it, I'm going to just ask :) How do you track your money?? I have been needing to do this for a long time and am looking for a way to do so. Whether it be a budget or computer program or spreadsheet...I don't care, I just need something! I know everyone has there own little way of doing things, so any suggestions or tips would be fabulous! Thanks!
