ePortfolio

So, I have to do an ePortfolio for a school project, and I don't want to do it the way that they say to (I also don't have enough time left to do it before the semester ends), so I'm making a blog post about it. I double-checked with the teacher before doing anything, just to make sure it was ok. She said I could post it onto facebook for all she cared. :) So here's my school project. Hope you enjoy it.

Bed, Bath, WAY Behind?

So as stated in our previous post, Niki and I are back online! Yay! Also, on Thursday our wireless router arrived and was super fast to setup so now we don't have to be sitting on the couch tethered to the modem (or old router) in order to be online. Again there was much rejoicing.

So in the way of an update, I'll try to keep it somewhat short.  We've moved into our house, yeah I know those of you who already knew that know we've been in our house for almost a full month and I just now getting around to posting it. Sorry, sheesh.

Besides having moved in, most of the boxes are unpacked and put away. Our Office/Living room is the only room that has yet to receive any sort of organization, with the exception of the book case that is in there (Thanks Mom and Becca for all your help unpacking and such).  Lets see, last Monday, so the 19th of July we received our Cable Internet and TV.  The Saturday prior to that our Kitchen Table, Chairs and Bar Stools arrived and we put those together (Thanks Dad and Mom for delivering those).  Lastly the Wednesday before that our Fridge was delivered; That's right no more gigantic space with little bitty mini-fridge.

Still a ton of work to do both inside and out though I feel like it's mostly outside.  Well that's pretty much the update on the house.  We love it, being homeowners is exciting and a little scary but I know we'll get use to it and love it even more.

If there is anything I didn't cover that you are interested in knowing please ask, either by email or commenting (we love comments, it's nice to know people actually read these)

One last thing I just thought of, for those of you who have not seen our wedding video or would like to, it's not online, sorry I know totally not what you were expecting.  But...just the temple portion of the video is on Reflections (the Videographers) Blog and can be found here (You'll have to scroll down till you see Niki and Mike at SLC Temple, currently the third video down).

Back On-Line

Hello everyone! Sorry, we went to Mars there for a while but we're back now and we've got t-shirts for everybody!

Just Kidding. But it is great to be back online and blogging again.  I'm sorry I don't have more to say right now but look for a longer update in a few days or so.

And now the work begins...

Sorry there has been nothing new posted on our blog lately. Having just moved, we're busy unpacking (in addition to working full time) and we also haven't gotten Internet service at our house yet (but that's scheduled for next Wednesday I believe). We will post more soon.

We have a house!

It's Official! We have a house! We closed last Tuesday and have been slowly moving wedding gifts up since we got word that it was officially ours. We have almost all the wedding gifts moved (there's just a few left that will be moved today or tomorrow), and we will be moving all the big stuff (beds, dressers, etc) this weekend and we'll start staying there beginning the 4th of July (or maybe the 3rd if Mom and Dad kick us out) ;) We are SO excited and are grateful for the generosity of everyone (for letting us invade the house for 2 months, for being so willing to help us move, for supporting us with this whole process, and everything!) Thank you!

And for those of you wondering, there will be a 'housewarming' party of sorts sometime. We don't know when yet. :)

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's day to all the fathers (and future fathers) out there! We are so grateful for all your support and guidance and WE LOVE YOU!

Crazy life

Apparently I'm really busy and don't update the blog regularly. Michael has already updated his blog twice since we've been married, and the last post on this one is from way back in February. There are a couple posts pending at the moment, but we need to get the pictures to attach to them. Oh well. Keep checking back here. We'll eventually have something new posted. In the meantime, you're welcome to check out his blog and the new things he's posted.

Bridals--Pictures

My bridals were taken on the grounds of the Garden Park ward. We had BEAUTIFUL weather that day and were able to get quite a few pictures that I really really like (too many to post here, but you can see all of them here) I'll try to limit what I post, but it's going to be hard because I like so many of them!

(Yes, I was talking to Michael)

Bridals

I have to be tricky and not let Michael see these, so the pictures will actually be posted while we are on our honeymoon (I hope the delay posting will work, but maybe not). Just letting you know that I had my Bridals taken a couple weeks ago and had a very fun time with the photographer and everyone that was there (Thanks for your help. You know who you are!) and we had gorgeous weather! Stay tuned for the pictures. They will be coming soon!

Engagement photos

Here are some of our favorite engagement photos! We of course have a lot more, but we can't put all of them on here. (However, they are all posted on my facebook page) Enjoy looking through these select few. :)
