Finally.

There is really no excuse for me not posting these pictures earlier. I've been lazy. Here are the pictures I took with my camera before the battery died and then my lovely sister-in-law Jamie sent me some she took with her camera. Thanks Jam!
PS. There are going to be a lot of pictures. It may make you sick.

These first two pictures are from the day before we left to Utah. I couldn't resist... He's so. dang. cute.


 Sam loved swinging with Grandpa Tycksen


 Just kickin' back with his favorite book on a cool summer day.


 Aunt Ashley and Auntie Em making him smile.


 Not quite sure about the slide but loves being behind the wheel.


 Like I said, this kid loves to swing. Aunt Alyssa showed him how it's done.


 Sam seems to enjoy being thrown in the air a lot more now than in this picture.

 Crazy in love Grandparents.

Sam and Grandma Kim.


 Sam likes chillin in his sling.

 Cool Droolin baby.


 Bryce, Emilee and Ashley worked almost all day to get these dead trees out of my dad's backyard. It was hard work.


 While in Utah Sam started giving baby kisses by sucking on people's cheeks. He looks like his is about to go for the kill in this picture.

 At Wheeler Farm with Grandpa and Grandma Haslam.

 Checking out the ducks with Grandma Sue.





 He's so handsome.


 Bo and Sam chased bubbles.

 Some lovin from his Daddy.





 Alyssa was taking actions shots of me and Bryce.






 Spending time with the Haslam Family




Hogle Zoo with Grandma Sue, Jamie, Presley and Maybelle.




Echo lake was Sam's first time being on a boat. He only liked it when it was moving.

 I love this picture Jamie took of Sam. It makes my heart melt.

Sam and Uncle Colin.

sleepy head

Sam must be going through a growth spurt or something because for the past few days all he has been doing is eating and sleeping for long hours. I haven't really been able to play with him. When he is sleeping he wants me to hold him the whole time too so needless to say the house smells like garbage and there are piles of laundry everywhere. Good thing he is cute.


2 years down and forever to go

Yes it's true people. I have stayed with this man for two years now. For good reasons to.

I knew from the first time we saw each other after my mission that he was going to be someone extraordinary in my life. We had been good friends for awhile but I was finding myself becoming insanely attracted to him and had a constant desire to be with him. My wish came true. May 30, 2009 we were sealed for all time and eternity in the Salt Lake temple. 

I love laughing with Bryce, especially late at night when we should be sleeping. I love the nights when he is always reaching out to cuddle with me and one time he grabbed my hand and held it while he was sleeping. It is nice to know he is wanting to be with me even while he is asleep. 

I love listening to Bryce talk about the gospel. He makes me think of things differently and helps me want to be a better person. I love hearing him pray because I get to be a witness of his relationship with heavenly Father.

A new thing for us in this second year of marriage is becoming parents. I absolutely love watching Bryce interact with Sam. I knew he would be a good dad but wow, he is amazing! He is so patient with Sam and helps me out so much. It's obvious that Sam loves his daddy.

I love Bryce's constant drive towards his goals. He knows how to accomplish hard things and he is not afraid of a challenge. One year of dental school achieved! 

This year has been filled with the most joy I have ever felt. I am so happy Bryce was brought into my life by a loving heavenly Father. 

I love you Bryce! 
Happy Anniversary!


This year on our anniversary Bryce was studying the whole day. So late at night we ate Magnum bars to celebrate and then went to bed.
