Best Snow on Earth

Dan's most favorite thing to do is to go snowmobiling. He absolutely loves winter! Usually when we go together, I sit behind him on his snowmobile. This time he thought I was ready to ride one all by myself! It was a blast, but it was so exhausting!! Anyone who tells you snowmobiling is easy is lying, it takes a ton of upper body strength (which I don't have). We went snowmobiling
up the canyon behind Dan's parents' house in Kamas. That day was absolutely beautiful!! The weather wasn't too cold and the sun was out. It was so peaceful and quiet up the mountain. It was our snowy heaven. My arms and back were sore afterwards, but the ride was so worth it!! We had so much fun! Here are some pics from a few pit stops along our way up the canyon.

That's little me.

We are smiling, we promise.

What a stud!! Dan is flashing a peace sign, if you can't tell.

Dan's heaven on earth.

Temple Square



The whole gang...Lindsay, Paige, Ethan, Tatum, Dan and me.

Ok, so these pictures are from last December, but I wanted to post them because I absolutely love Temple Square during the Christmas season. Dan and I went with my family to see the magnificent lights. It was fun to spend time with my parents and siblings. I love them all so much! I miss the Lovin Clan! We had a great time with them all. Can't wait to see the lights again this year!

Ute Domination!!!

Me and my "Utah" Man



Ahhhhh, sweet victory!!!

Utah fans at the sideline, ready to rush the field.


Our view from the 2nd row, it's freakin' sweet I know.


This is the view behind us in the MUSS, pretty cool eh? The guy holding up his hands was completely wasted, but he was hilarious. He called Dan and I his "Football Buddies" who stuck it out to the end. He was a crack up!

Ok, here is my claim to fame. This is a pic of Jared the "Subway" guy before the game. He is the one that lost all of the weight by eating the 5 Dollar footlongs. Who knew he was a Ute fan?!

As you can see Dan and I are huge Utah fans! We went to every single Utah football game and tailgaiting party (hey, free food right?). Plus we have been to most of the basketball games. Dan is on the MUSS board, so he hooked us up with sweet football seats on the second row!! It's a great view from there, I am telling ya. Here we are at the most intense, nailbiting, aggressive, and thrilling game of the season against the school down south. Actually, it wasn't that nerve-racking since we creamed the Cougars, but needless to say we had fun watching the Utes dominate last year! Neither of us could talk afterwards since we were screaming so much.

A Perfect Season!!

Us and Swoop


Dan and I chillin' at the Tailgating Party

Another great thing about the trip was having Dan's brother Jim and his wife Angela there watching the game with us. We love our Utes!
The final score...Utah 25 Michigan 23!

The Big House full!

The Big House empty...

For those of you who don't know Dan, he is the BIGGEST Utah fan you will ever meet! He bleeds red through and through. While we were dating, Dan won a free trip to the Utah v. Michigan football game for the 2008 season. Little did we know it was going to be the first step to a perfect 13-0 season for the Utah football team. Last August, Dan and I flew to Michigan to watch them Utes, all expenses paid! The Big House Stadium was huge!!! It seated 100,000 fans! We were up on the top rows with the other Ute fans screaming our guts out!! Not only was this once-in-a-lifetime trip free, but we won!!! Go Utes!!

ALOHA!!!



Dan and I went to Kauai for our honeymoon! For those of you who've never been I highly recommend it. It was so beautiful! It was my first trip to Hawaii and I am dying to go back! I wanted to post these pics because they make me so happy every time I see them. It was a complete paradise!

































Our Wedding Day!



I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day! On that beautiful summer morning, I was married to the love of my life! Dan is such a wonderful husband! He's my prince charming, my knight in shining armor, my better half, and my best friend. I am so grateful to have him in my life! I love him so much! He's my man!

It's about time!!!

Hi, and welcome to our blog!! Let's be honest, I have had this blog since last August. But between school and work, I haven't had time to post anything until now. It's a lame excuse I know, but it's the sincere truth. It's Spring Break (finally) and I think it's time to update our blank blog for our viewers. Let me bring you all up to speed. Dan and I were married on July 31, 2008 and are loving life together! Dan and I are attending school at the U of U and are looking forward to graduating next spring (Hallelujah!). Life has flown by so fast, I can't believe we've been married for 7 1/2 months!! It's been crazy, but I have loved every minute of it! So there will be old pictures posted to let you know what Dan and I have been doing together. Enjoy!
