Paul and I were married on May 15, 2004 in Louisville, Colorado. We love spending time together. About a year after we were married we bought our first home. It is the home we currently live in. We live in a condominium neighborhood in Erie. Our home is cozy and full of love. We have 2 dogs and 1 cat. This picture was taken about 2 months ago. Our friend, Reina, took them for us. We had not taken our pictures for almost 2 years. We had a great time taking pictures, it was so much fun especially when we were on the playground.
Of all the pictures we recently took, both my sisters said this picture really depicts Paul and I. We are always goofing off and having fun together. If you can't tell, I'm trying very hard to knock Paul off, however he is just relaxing there!! Bummer, he's so strong.
On our six year anniversary, we were sealed in the Denver Temple. What an amazing experience. Knowing that we will be together for all time and eternity. Even better was the fact that I still fit into my original wedding dress. It was maybe even a little loose. We had such a great time with a few members of our Ward that came with us.
In this picture with us is Bishop Lolotai and his lovely wife. Bishop Lolotai married us 6 years prior and we were honored to have him be a witness for our sealing. The Lolotai's adopted both of their children may years ago. They are truly an inspiration to us in this new adventure. I grew up with the Lolotai's in my home ward, so what a blessing it is to have them be a part of all of our special days, both of them!
We were very fortunate to take an amazing trip to Mexico in November, 2008. Neither one of us had ever been out of the country. We spent an entire week, lying on the beach and sitting by the pool. Talk about relaxing. Bonus, we had great tans in November!! Our family on Paul's side all went. There were 27 of us there for the week. We were at an all inclusive resort, which I would recommend to everyone. The ocean is so beautiful.
One of my very favorite pictures we had taken while in Mexico. What a perfect picture. Really speaks what we feel. We are so in LOVE!!! We hope to have many more trips to Mexico, and other places. We especially are excited to make trips to Disney World!!
Such a serious look!! Pretty sure it's just the position of the camera. We were able to make it to ONE Rockie's game this year. We have committed to more next year. At least they won :)
PROOF!!

| Pumpkin Patch!!! |
We ALWAYS go to the Pumpkin Patch!! Every year, it is a tradition that we started about 3 years ago. There's much satisfaction in roaming the fields of the pumpkin patch and finding "the perfect pumpkin"
