~January~

Drew reading to the nursery kids. They (like all other kids) loved him. I have to remind him to be calm because one week by the end he had kids running across the table, throwing balls at each other, and he was being tackled on the ground.. yep I'm in trouble when we have kids.
My mom, dad, Landon (nephew), Drew, Landon (Drew's friend), and I went to a BYU basketball game in Drew's grandparents tickets. Landon was absolutely thrilled to sit on the floor with grandpa and kept jumping out of his seat he was so into the game.

The only picture I actually took.. for Danielle's bday we went to Texas Roadhouse and then for Christmas we all got Brian Regan tickets. It was such a fun night. The concert was hilarious I don't think I have ever laughed that hard for that long.

The whole group at Brian Regan

January was a busy but fun month. After the wedding festivities were over we went on a fun family date to Brian Regan and then bought a house! We closed on our house Jan 31st and moved in the 4th of Feb. We are still working on getting everything fixed and put away so I will post pictures when we are done. We are loving it already though! My top favorite things are:

Both being able to park in the garage

Not hearing people walk above us

Having a fridge with an ice and water maker in the door (amazing!)

Being able to change whatever we want

Decorating!

Having two bathrooms

Drew having an office

Having a walk in closest!

And having more room so Drew can watch tv and not bug me while I do homework

Oh and I can't forget.. not having a bite size oven and washer/dryer (I did all of our laundry in 3 loads yesterday that's amazing!)

I thought having a house was more work but didn't think it was this much work haha and it's not even summer with our big yard.

We haven't really met people yet or been able to go to our ward but we are excited to go tomorrow. I never thought I would say this but I miss the nursery kids from our old ward :(.

We are buying a house!!!

We put an offer on this house in Draper at the end of September. It was a short sale so we have been waiting for awhile. We finally heard the bank accepted our offer and we have to close by Feb 12th! We are really excited but kinda nervous. Inspection is done and we are most likely closing Jan 31st and moving in Feb 4th!

Danielle/Dave wedding!

Danielle and Dave's wedding was on 1/12/12. It was a gorgeous and freezing day! I love Danielle's dress it looked absolutely perfect on her! It was fun to be part of all of the festivities all day and see how happy they are. Danielle is such a sweatheart we love her. Drew has always told me no man could ever be good enough for Danielle until he met Dave. They get along great and Dave takes such good care of Danielle. The family always talks about how it is kind of creepy how similar Dave and Drew are (maybe that's why Drew likes him).

(No this isn't Drew's purple jacket he just forgot his)

The luncheon was at the Atrium. The food was delicious. This was the cute dessert with the temple chocolate.

I am lucky I have such great inlaws! Whenever I hear people's nightmare stories about inlaws it makes me more and more greatful for mine. Not only are my inlaws great but the extended family on both sides are great too.

The reception was also at the Atrium

Crystal/Josh and their cute kids

Drew looking good in his tux

Sophie and Jace entertaining themselves :). Crystal's kids are always so well behaved everywhere we go. One day I'll have to get tips from her. She has five kids yet you would never know it they are so quiet and well behaved!

The food at the reception was amazing! Robin, her sister Audra, and some ladies in the ward did it all! I don't know how they did it all but it turned out great! Danielle's favorite was homemade bread and jam.. yum!

Dave's favorites were all chocolate. Brownies, reeses cupcakes, kisses and more candy.

Right as Danielle was saying he would be nice Dave shoved cake ALL over her face. They both had cake all over their faces. Danielle is always a great sport. I would have killed Drew :).

It was a fun day! We wish Dani and Dave all the best!
