Happy 4 years

Last week we celebrated 4 years of marital bliss, I can't believe how fast its gone by. I was looking through some of our pictures over the years and just wanted to reminisce about some of our fun times. There were too many to choose from, but here are some times that we love to look back on....

Zurich, Switzerland

Venice, Italy

Turkey hunting in idaho

Costa Rica

Houston....our whole family....

Utah

Appleton, Wisconsin

Houston

Vienna

Here are some from the wedding day...



I think this is in Peoria, Illinois

We have the best life, its the greatest to be married to your best friend!

Merry Christmas!!

So I know it's a little late, but time has been going too fast and we have been enjoying our break far too much. Merry Christmas, hope yours has been as wonderful as ours. Here are some pictures from the holidays around our house. It was too fun having a nearly one year old to celebrate with this year, of course she still woke up and 6:30 like every other day so we had our presents opened by 7:30 and were all taking naps by 9, it was a great day...

OH and happy new years too!! We have loved 2009 and all the new things that have come into our lives, and are so excited for 2010 and all the adventures that will always seem to come our way. We feel so blessed everyday and are trying to make the most of it and enjoy everything!!! Thanks for being apart of our lives!!!

What we've been up to

We've had big things going on at our house lately....

Lots of crawling, and getting very very fast...

Pulling and standing up on anything and everything in sight......

Laughing our heads off.........

Trying to taste anything in sight......

And growing lots of teeth, we're up to 6 now....

Gosh, time flies when you're having fun!!! We love you and miss you!!!

I LOVE FALL

Or maybe it's just this cute face I see playing in the leaves

Wahington DC

We really did it, we ran a marathon!! Woo hoo! We had a great time in Washington, it was a perfect weekend for 26.2 miles. We spent a couple of days seeing the sights and eating good food, then on Sunday we had our race. I'll be honest it was pretty tough, but I'm so glad lance ran with me. It gets pretty boring running that long. Becca ran it too, and we are soo proud of her...she qualified for the Boston marathon. Lance and I were not quite that ambitious, but we finished and we did pretty good for our first time. I think I prefer the half marathons, but I really think that everyone should try to do a whole one at least once :) Here's a few pictures from our trip. I thought I took more, and now that I realize I didn't I'm really mad at myself. But at least we got a few good ones....

Kendall at Arlington Cemetary

Me, kendall and Connie (lance's mom)

Going to the expo to pick up our packets, it was crazy. But I guess with 30,00 runners things do tend to get out of hand.

We tried to go a little sightseeing....On Pennsylvania Ave, Lance eating as usual
In front of the white house. Who knew you had to arrange a tour with your congressman months in advance to get any closer than this.

At the Washington Monument
Looking at the Lincoln memorial and reflecting pool.
