Our Apartment

Svenja wanted to see it, so here it is. Love ya SVENJA! :)

We re-arranged our bedroom too. We like it better how it is now. It gives us more space.

Our nook where our dining table and shelf are, still look the same. They have the table, printer and our books over there. Tyler is enjoying laying on the couch enjoying a movie. Our couch is actually a Futon and folds into a bed, So feel free to come VISIT SVENJA (or anyone else for that matter. Just call ahead of time! :))

- Our kitchen is the same as usual, except it has BEAUTIFUL SUNFLOWERS from Tyler. He got them for me.

This is our Living/ Family Room. Ty and his Mom made that beautiful frame above our tv. :)

Making Pies with Andrea

Andrea and I decided that we wanted to make the pie we saw at Olive Garden. We went there for dinner with our men on a double date. She had the recipe, so on Thursday night, that is just what we did. The finished product was YUMMY! :)

Icy Outside

Tyler and I were driving home from downtown Rexburg tonight and it was very icy. Right before the turn to go back home, we saw a red car that had apparently slipped on the ice and had gone into a snow pile. Ty turned onto our road and then turned around, and said, "They will probably need help pushing it out." So we went back to where they were. Tyler and the guy pushed the car out and the girl in the car put the car into reverse and helped to get it out. I wanted to help, but I knew that I would probably be in the way, so I watched and admired as my wonderful husband helped them to get out of their situation. What an amazing man my husband it. I know it may not sound like this was anything huge, but a lot of people passed the car and no one had gone back to help. Ty decided to help these people. I love that he is willing to serve and help others in need.

Also, when I was at work, it began to snow and the roads had a layber snow and ice on them. I was heading home from work (in my car that has bald tires and barely any weight) and I got a sweet text from Tyler. It was simple, but meant the world to me. He said, "The roads are icy, drive safe and I love you." Nothing earth shattering I know, but I was very appreciative of him thinking of me and texting me. :)

Date Night with Friends

We have enjoyed spending time with Bryce and Andrea. We went out on a double date on Friday. We went to Olive Garden and then came back to our apartment and played Taboo. We first played with couples and Tyler and I were the WINNERS, then we played boys vs. girls... THE BOYS, or MEN were the WINNERS! We were happy for them, but bummed that we lost. However, they may have cheated, because they informed us that when we have played games before that they (meaning the boys) have cheated to see if we would notice. Of course we didn't notice. We are too trusting of our men. haha. GOOD TIMES ANYWAY

Shooting in Ellensburg

Dad McGee got a new gun for Christmas and so we decided to go out and shoot guns on New Year's Eve. It was Dad, Tyler, myself and Stephen. I was not very good at shooting, but it was still lots of fun. Our camera got snow all over it though while we were taking pictures. (I promise it is snow that got on the camera, conveniently right next to my noes and not snot in the first picture of Tyler and I.)

Brookley and I were relaxing together on the chair. This was the first time she said, "Uh Oh." It was really cute and I was one of the first people to ever hear her say it! :)

CrAzY SeMeStEr

The Winter Semester is here and it has been crazy.

Ty is still tutoring, I am still working at Burton Elementary and life is great!

My classes have turned out to be more difficult than I could have guessed and can be stressful at times. Luckily, my wonderful Hubby is here to keep me from going insane. He is so sweet and always there for me when I need him.

Hopefully I can do a better blog soon, but I figured I should at least add SOMETHING, since the last time I updated was about Christmas.

Christmas in Ellensburg

Christmas in Ellensburg was wonderful! We got there the night of the 24th, recieved pajamas from Tyler's Mom and put them on. We all had matching pajamas. The nieces had night gowns that matched all the pants of everyone else. It was so cute! It was fun to wake up and go upstairs to open presents with everyone in red and green. We had a wonderful Christmas with his family!
