One year!

Today marks a year since Matt and I decided to become a couple. We had been dating, and I ran into him unexpectedly at the institute building. I was really happy to see him. I ended up going to institute with him, and going to his house afterward. Before we went to his house, I told him that I didn't want him to get sick of me from spending too much time together. He said that he was feeling quite the opposite about spending time with me. We were talking on his couch and Matt said that he had a friend who wanted him to give a defined answer as to the status of our relationship, and that he told his friend that it wasn't defined. I took the opportunity to ask him if he wanted it to be defined. We decided to date exclusively. We've seen each other every day, except for one, since we have been together. It has been a fantastic year together. I love my Matt.

You have to try this

Our carpets were looking REALLY BAD. I wanted to get a carpet steam cleaner, and Matt thought it was a good idea too, so we did some research, shopped the sales, and ended up with the Hoover F914-900 SteamVac.

I was really excited to try it out, and I was not disappointed. It is so much fun and so satisfying to suck all of that dirt out of the carpet.

The before and after!

The best Autumn on record

This has been one of the most fantastic fall seasons I can ever remember. Not only do I have a wonderful new husband to share it with, it has been much longer and warmer than usual. Sometimes in Northern Utah it seems like Autumn is over before it begins. It is my favorite season.
