Right Before Christmas we moved up the West Jordan to a cute Townhome style apartment. It is really close to Jordan Landing so it is a bit of a drive down to Provo for work but we got kicked out of our condo because the owner's sold it. Don't worry they paid us to move out, which is pretty much the only reason we agreed to it! Anywho, I love our new place, if we have to live in an apartment I would much rather live in one that at least kind of feels like we have our own place. I also secretly like that we got kicked out because now we don't have to pack up the dogs and clothes ever weekend when we would come stay up here. Randy hates driving so we are hoping he will get a job closer to home. Here are some pics of the new place now that it's all put together.
The Holidays were so fun! It is definitely one of my favorite times of year. This christmas Randy's parents were in Boston visiting his brother's family so we spent Christmas day and weekend at my mom's playing Wii Guitar Hero World Tour and Mario Kart which was a blast!! My favorite part of when we played world tour was when my sister and I were playing the drums and guitar and Randy failed all of us with his singing! It was pretty funny, my poor husband is tone def and can only keep up with the game when he is singing falsetto. I loved it! Don't feel too bad, he proceeded to kick our butts in Mario Kart and made sure we knew he was killing us! All in good fun of course.
Here is Fitch all cuddled under the tree on Christmas Eve...
The week following Christmas Randy's Grandpa got married, the night before the ceremony his new wife's family had a big get together. It was really fun, she has a big family and it was also really fun to see the majority of Randy's family again. We don't get to see them all that often but when we do I always have a good time, they are hilarious. Here is a picture of our cousin Lindsay and her son, we got the pleasure of wearing name tags and hers just happened to get stuck to Canyon's head. It was cute!
The next day was the ceremony at the Bountiful Temple, which is the first temple wedding ceremony we have been to as a married couple, it was fun, it definitely brought a lot of those nervous/anxious/good memories back from when we were sitting there on our day. After the ceremony we all headed to the Joseph Smith Memorial Building where we had a yummy luncheon.
On to New Year's Eve, I worked that morning and then headed over to Sheldon and Michelle's house to start the sushi making process. We always go out to sushi together so we thought it would be fun to make it ourselves on New Year's Eve. It was so much fun and we were so dang proud of our professional looking sushi! Michelle had gone to the fish market earlier and picked up some delicious samon and tuna. First we just made california rolls and then just prepared everything else for the others to make their own rolls. Here some pics from along the way, and then the final product.
