I noticed that every now and then, or if we moved my mom would always take photos of our home. I always questioned her reasoning, and even thought what a waist of film! Now that I am older and have our own home I want to take photos of our home too. It's good to remember your old homes and what they used to look like. I am glad she took those photos years ago because now the parts my memory doesn't pick up, the photos do.  So I took a few shots of bits and pieces around our home so we can remember once we have moved on to another place.

The snow has shut down what feels like all of Seattle this past week. Lucky for us this seems normal after living in Idaho the past two winters. For Christmas Devin got a new lens for our camera so today we went out and tested it. We had fun exploring but my lips felt like they were going to fall off so we trenched through the snow back home and had some carmel hot chocolate.

My favorite part of our wedding day was the moment we were married and the moment we walked out of the temple. 




Three years sure does fly and I wouldn't have picked anyone else to be married to. I love you Devin!

“Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.”

My mom used to have this quote on our fridge...words I think she really has lived by. Since Devin and I have been married, I surprisingly have taken that reminder on my mom's fridge and really tried to live by it too. 

After almost 3 years of marriage we finally got our first couch (all we had were love sacs and a wicker chair)!! Looking back, I'm glad we didn't just blow our money and buy some random couch while we were at BYU and then lug it around wherever we moved to. 


We finally found something we truly love (L shaped,modern, micro swede, from crate and barrel) AND we have a greater appreciation for our couch since we have been without one for so long!


Lucky for us it snowed this weekend. Everything in Washington shuts down when even an inch of snow falls, so church was cancelled and we lounged on our couch all day.

Our Shop!

Devin and I are very excited to open our very own Etsy Shop!

More and more frequently we had been creating prints for family and friends and so we were inspired to create our own shop for everyone. Currently we only have a few prints but we plan to add more as well as some photography Devin has done.

We have had a lot of fun creating this & I would love for you to stop by, spread the word, and tell us what you think!

goals

I have an odd obsession with making lists and goal setting so I love it when January comes around and everyone else loves it just as much as I do! If you have a hard time remembering and sticking with your goals through out the year, make a daily list of your to do's and include those goals you have made to keep on track through out the year that way you're reminded daily!

sadly, the only photo I took on New years..HA! But hey I am wearing a vintage blouse that I love (my great grandmother's in fact)

Bridal showers are the best when it's for one of your closest friends.
(Wearing wedges was a bad idea...I felt like I was towering over everyone)


Congrats Stasia , so excited for you.

I always get a little sad when Christmas is over and a whole new year begins. I looked back at my journal exactly a year ago and couldn't believe how different our life was and how much has changed. 
Devin and I are hoping for even more new things and changes in store for us 2012.
Cheers to a new year filled with growth, fun, & love!

Devin is the kinda guy that always has to find the deals. I made the mistake of making him watch the Today show and one of my favorite segments Jill's Steals & Deals (please someone tell me you have seen this too). Anyway, a few days before Christmas we watched it and a deal game on for a $500 gift card for restaurant.com  Dev was all over that deal, researched it out and bought it for only 30 bucks....2 of them.

Yesterday we thought we would try out one of the restaurants included in the deal. Little did Devin know that we have to spend 35$ worth of food to get the coupon each time.
(not pictured 3 more plates full of food)
Anyone want some Chinese? We have left overs.
