New Hair

Sometimes when I catch a glimpse of my reflection I think I look like my mom now. Weird.

Cabinets!

Our BEAUTIFUL cabinets are in! These are like Matt and I's favorite part of the whole house. We are SO excited for them.

This is the little desk built in our kitchen. I am pretty sure I will spending a lot of time there!

Angels Landing

My sweet husband admitted to me last week that before he met me he HATED hiking. He thought it was super boring and would much rather mountain bike or something. Funny because we probably went on like 20 hikes last summer/fall!
But supposedly he likes it pretty well now. Not as much as mountain biking, but enough to ask me if I wanted to go hike Angels Landing in Zion. He said I was getting restless and needed to get out and go camping/hiking.
So we went down to Zion and had a great time. We found the sweetest camping spot ever and had such a blast. We scavenged that fire wood ourselves and chopped it up with our mad skills. I actually fell flat on my butt in the middle of all the wood trying to break some of it up. Matt did a good job of not laughing until he made sure I was going to be okay.
Angels Landing was great. It really kicked my butt, I haven't been an avid worker-outer since I got hitched. Matt hates heights and steep cliffs but he didn't even show it on this hike. He just dominated it! Once we are the top we had a bit to eat and I was all ready to sit back and relax for a while but Matt just wanted to get back down to the ground though!

Here is us on the easy part of the way up...
Here are Walter's Wiggles - a series of 21 switchbacks about halfway up...
Here is one of the many narrow parts of the hike. Only about three feet across...
Us on the top enjoying our victory...

Easter

We had Easter a week earlier than most people did and I have to tell you I don't mind celebrating my holidays early! Except then I go to the store the day after and think all the stuff is on sale because the holiday is over and it really isn't.

We had fun dying our eggs, fingers, countertops etc. etc.
Nick did pretty good finding all the eggs. He loved the plastic eggs full of M&M's. Strangely enough he didn't eat very many of them but spent all morning playing with them in his dump trucks! Yum!

All Framed!


Yay! Our house is all framed up! It is so exciting to go see it now. Today they started the porch and put most of the windows in. They should have all of the plumbing and electrical done this next week.
Sorry the picture isn't very good. I didn't bring my camera so this was taken with Matt's phone.
