"A final gospel truth that will contribute to our understanding of and hence the quality of our marriages relates to the degree in which we involve the Savior in our relationships as husbands and wives. As designed by our Heavenly Father, marriage consists of our first entering into a covenant relationship with Christ and then with each other. He and his teachings must be the focal point of our togetherness. As we become more like him and grow closer to him, we will naturally become more loving and grow closer to each other"

Januarys almost OVER??

Where on earth did this month go!!? I can't believe its almost over! Although we have had SO much fun!! Working away as always (thankfully), and we've also had lots of company!! My friend Amy is staying here a few night a week while she finishes up Nursing school! Robbie's mom and good friend came down and stayed a few days with us! That sunday we decided to go up to Zion just for fun! It was so beautiful! We had a blast with them here!!
Heather and Carson also came down and played with us for a few days while Jake was in school at UNLV. It was so much fun! From sewing to Durangos, to just watching Carson!! He is such a doll!! I wish they lived closer so I could see them more though!

The toy we got him which he loved!! Babies are just so easily entertained! I love it!!
Carson and his favorite "aunt" :)
This month has been a blast! So far '09 isn't lookin half bad!!

2009 so far!!

2009 has had a great start! I still can't believe another year has gone by but I'm determined to reach all my goals this year! So far so good! We have been having so much fun with our friends! Thanks heavens for them helping us to get out of the house!! We tried the new Pirate Island Pizza place.... AMAZING! The food was great and the place was just set up so cute! If you live in St. George I would recommend you try it!
Robbie decided to have a party to watch the Texas Tech game. He made Brisket (which ive never had but LOVED!) and Megan being the wonderful person she is, cooked everything else and let us watch it in her game room! Sadly enough we heard the outcome of the game about half way in so the boys weren't to happy but we still had fun!

He wasn't to happy that Texas Tech lost but he still is a stud even after the let down!

Red Raider pride! (not a gun or a loser sign!!!!)

We got a bunch of us together and went bowling at Dixie Bowl! The place is so ghetto but you can't help but love it! Having to reset the lane every second.. its the best!!

If you can notice the SLIGHT stain on my shirt! That everyone felt they had to point out to me! We went to Red Robin and somehow I spilt all over myself. Typical.
2008 was a great year. Started off meeting Robbie, half way through the year we were married and I finished hair school, whiched I LOVED!! And it ended with the best first christmas ever! I don't know where I would be without him and my friends! I've grown a great deal of appreciation of my friends. I've learned so much this past year about myself that I never knew before! I'm so grateful for my family as well and the support they have given us and everything we never knew we learned from then until now!! We love you all!!

I hope 09' is everything you need it to be!!

Santa came early!! (12/20/08)

I know I know.. it should be a sin to have Christmas early BUT it was done! Robbie and I are going to my parents Wednesday and I work all day tomorrow so instead of packing everything up then packing it all back in the car the next day we just decided to celebrate early! So on the 20th we had some fun! Here are some of the pictures from the event!
This was our "tiny" tree... long story. There were lots of presents for Robbie under the tree and there was one HUGE box.. Ya Robbie DID wrap all my presents in one box.. He thought it was pretty funny!!
The sweater from Bobby!! Loved it
I've been wanting this sign for a very long time and was so happy to see it under the tree! Robbie got tired of wrapping after wrapping the bog box.. so he decided to play Guitar Hero and when I got home from work there it was unwrapped! Santa must have dropped it off early!
Grandma Morrison got us that Reflections of Christ book, its amazing and Robbie got me the other one!

YAY! No more balding hubby... Hopefully ;)

Long sleeve boarding shirts!

The new Burton boarding gear!!! He cannot wait to go snowboarding.. its all he talks about!

Rawson got us the UNO attack game.. I cant wait to play that!!

His mom got us a VIDEO CAMERA! I was so happy and excited!! Its been such a blast to play with!
My new snowboarding jacket (-the pants!) Im really scared to go with Robbie but I'm going to give it a far shot because I know how much he loves it!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!
We hope everyone has a great holiday and take lots of pictures so we can see!! I can't wait to go see my family and have our Nelson family party! FUN! I just love Christmas!!

This and that...

It has been a little while since I posted anything so I figured I should update! We have been so busy lately and still so much to do! My house is a wreck and instead of doing this post I should be cleaning.. but im not! We have been having so much fun the past little while! We went to an 80's party with a bunch of friends and it was a blast I cant wait to go to the ugly sweater party!


For thanksgiving up went to Morgan to spend time with Robbie's mom. She had to be in the hospital thanksgiving so we needed to be up north to pick her help and just help out. It was a nice break from st. george but i FROZE. One day my lips were seriously BLUE! I didnt know that could happen! I'm not to sure im ready to move there and freeze to death... Im sad to say that we don't have any picture of our first thanksgiving together :( and this is the first year I didnt have a thanksgiving dinner, but Robbie made Mountain Dew Stew? Not sure if anyone has had it but it was pretty good! But my mom promised me we'd have a thanksgiving dinner for Christmas... can't wait!


Also it was Megan's birthday! I was sad I was up north and couldn't party with her but we celebrated at Player's with some friends for dinner! Happy 22nd Meg!!

Nice to get away!

On saturday we went up to my friends cabin in Kolob just for the day! It was a group date and we thought it'd be fun to go riding and fishing! BUT the fishing didn't last to long!! haha! But we still had so much fun! We ate hobo dinners, played games and watched Get Smart (SO FUNNY) I love just getting away even if its only 45 minutes away! Here are some of the pictures we took! The lake where we attempted to fish!
Drving the Rhino around! Amy and Rawson creepin in the back!

Amy & Rawson. Poor amy was freezing! And Rawson looks like he has pigtails!

Robbie goofin around! Would have been pretty funny if that tree broke and he fell into that FREEZING water!

FOOTBALL! You should have seen how beautiful Camie's cabin was!

Camie & Clint!

My handsome husband! We were so cold!

Two new projects!

"Sacrifice is the highest form of love." I made this one for my sister. She has a missionary out and this is just their cute little quote they always say! I'm very proud of her for waiting so faithfully, this guy is worth the wait. I'll love him forever for the person he's helped my sister become!!! The thank you cards is something that Robbie and I started to do. (Well i make the cards, not him) but we decided we needed to make our own family traditions so every Novemeber since its Thanksgiving, we decided to write a letter a week to someone important to us or someone just letting them know how appreciated they are by us. So either on Sundays or family night this is what we will be doing for this month!! Cant wait to see what we decide for Christmas!! I love the holidays so much!
