Happy 5th Anniversary & Spring Break

I sadly didn't get very many pictures of our spring break fun, but I want to remember it. We headed off to Kanab friday night. We had so much fun enjoying our drive while Dawson slept- J.D. and I were able to talk about a lot of interesting things. We made it to my nephew's baseball game. It was the chuck wagon classic baseball tournament and Larriette/Cheer Review which we had nieces and nephews in both.

We stayed in a beautiful room at a hotel that looks like a castle- or a HUGE house. The next night we stayed at the brand new holiday inn that J.D.'s mom's cousin owns (he owns the castle one too)- which meant for an amazing discount. We went swimming, ate at the famous Junction, visited with lots of friends, and just enjoyed our break. I'm pretty sure this was the weekend Andee was conceived... I'm sure our kids will appreciate knowing this as they read it later on. ;)


Here's Lyndee (my niece), and her escort Hayden Edwards. He was so cute with her and they had so much fun!

Here's little Jessi Anne dancing at the review as well. She is such a performer!

After our adventure in Kanab, we came back to Cedar for J.D. to work, and then we were going to head to Holden. However, we got SOOO sick. We were flat on our backs for 3 days just trying to get over this horrible cold/flu and cough. It was unreal- we've never experienced anything like it. No medicine really helped us kick it except IB Profin. Dawson, THANKFULLY, did not get sick at all and he just layed with us on the couch or bed. It's like he understood that we just couldn't move or play and he was fine with it. It was amazing to see him cope with both mom and dad being so sick and practically helpless. So for our anniversary we were sick, but technically we celebrated it in Kanab. So- we did have a good anniversary.

We have been married 5 years on March 14th. We have accomplished so much. J.D. and I wrote up a 'Wish List' when we were first married. This year, we pulled it out and we crossed off EVERY SINGLE ITEM! It really made us rethink how blessed we truly are. We are going to write a new wish list and check it in another 5 years to see if we get to do the same thing we did this time. I am a firm believer in subconscious goals. :-)
