Our fluff sitting adventures. Part one.

Day number one of Fluff Sitting.



We're a little bored waiting for Joseph to get back from work. But I'm glad to be watching a dog again. Having grown up with dogs makes these days pretty lonely when husbands are at work!! Fluff and I are planning on having a great time though. We'll share stories, and we'll go on long walks (if the cement doesn't burn flesh off), and we'll watch girly emotional movies and cry with each other.


She's sleeping right now.. hmm.... lively. I guess we'll wait until she wakes up.

Our wedding

Ever since I started this blog (a whole 24 hours ago) I think about all the things I could be posting. Or at least I try to figure out WHAT to post. I'm a little lost. But it's so fun!! So I'll get to doing anything, like the dishes and try to figure out how in the world to make it interesting so I can blog about it. Turns out that doing the dishes are in fact, not interesting. The same goes for vacuuming and laundry, the things I do while Joseph is at work are all not very interesting. So while I'm obsessing about what to blog, I suppose I can post pictures of our wedding. For those of you who don't stalk Facebook (or me) you may not have seen the pictures Joseph and I edited (but mainly Joseph edited them and I sat around on Facebook).

The morning of the wedding was exciting but I was rather calm (on the inside). However I do remember also being stressed out, lots of little things were going wrong. And Robin (a bridesmaid) got stuck doing my hair.
Unfortunately for her I gave her about 12 hours notice that she was doing my hair. But it turned out looking really great!

And then I was off to the temple! This was about the time my nerves started kicking in, and Joseph didn't bring his ring into the temple. But no worries, just one of several things that would inevitably attempt to make my stress levels hospitalize me.

Almost everyone had to wait outside the temple while Joseph and I got married, it was a hard not having a traditional wedding (that everyone could come to), but it was so worth being sealed to Joseph for all time and eternity.



Yeah, check it.


Did I mention that it was windy? At least the bridesmaids had ponytails.


This is one of my favorite pictures.


Did I mention that IT WAS WINDY??


Check out this handsome man.


Scarlet (my niece) was super cute at the ring exchange. I asked her to hold my bouquet while I stood greeting everyone, so she stood behind Joseph and I dancing around in circles with the flowers.

Our new life


Joseph and I have been married for exactly 7 weeks today. I can't imagine a better way of spending my time than to be at home with him! Dang, THIS IS THE LIFE! However, along with this new life the camera has long been forgotten. Every time we do something or go somewhere I think that we should be recording our every move, but the camera is always sitting nicely on top of the dresser at home. Fortunately, when going on an impromptu hike up Rock Canyon one evening a couple of weeks ago we remembered to bring the camera.



I conquered nature that day.



I realize that this is probably one of the more flattering pictures of me but there is a new fangled water dispensing shooting-it-3-feet-in-the-air fountain and I was thirsty, it's really hard to drink out of for some reason.


Once we got off of the trail we found a really great spot just up the ridge of the stream to start a fire and roast some marshmallows. It was right next to an old mine I was pretty sure a bear was going to come out of with a desire to scratch some faces off, but it turned out to be really nice and quiet.
