Happy Birfday to You

January 4, 2012~ Etc.

I don’t know why…but this is one of my favorite pictures of her 😀
I just wanted to wish my wife HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Having a public blog can sometimes be intimidating as you don’t know who will read the intimate details plastered on the page of hundreds of computers. But I know how much this blog means to my wife and on her day, I wanted to publically let her know that I love her and I wish her the best birthday even if it’s simple. And despite its simplicity today, I hope I can treat her as if it is her birthday everyday of the year and hope that I can be the man she deserves from today until forever.
-I’m thankful for a spouse that is confident in all she does, that is patient with our kids and with me.
-For someone who stays calm and collective and continually understands and sympathizes with the day to day pressures and stresses of life.
-For someone who has a strong and driven belief in Jesus Christ and continually lives her life to a higher standard which in turn makes me a better person just by being around her.
-For the extra pounds that I’ve put on since we’ve been married due to the time and effort that she slaves over dinner menus, grocery shopping, and cooking and always makes sure that our two little girls get enough to eat.
-For her upbeat attitude about life and the way she brightens up a room just by being in it.
-For her perfect smile and the most photogenic face I’ve ever laid my eyes on. She’s even more beautiful in person.
-For her thinking of me when she buys clothes and (semi)-catering her style to my taste. 😛
-For her creativiy and drive that always leaves me in awe, proud, and inspired.
-For her little acts of unselfishness like letting me have the remote at night even if she wants to watch a show.
-For her always cleaning and appeasing my OCCD (obsessive compulsive cleanliness disorder).
-For her taking the time to do fun things and interacting with our girls day in and day out.
-For chaffering the girls around to their various activities.
-For planning and executing countless birthday parties and functions for our girls.
-For being such a good kisser
-For her random texts or calls that let me know she’s thinking of me.
-For her trust and loyalty to and in me and being supportive in all that I do as a father and as a husband.
-For the way she makes me feel by building me up and not breaking me down and never talking bad about me to others.
-For the patience, love, and kindness she shows to me and all that she associates with.
-For her giving me a chance and taking a chance on me in love.
I could go on a couple pages, but just wanted to tell her that I am so happy that we worked out. When I first met her, I never thought we’d end up together, that I’d ever have a chance with her, but life allowed our paths to cross despite the craziest circumstances and despite our not close to perfect roller coaster relationship, I wouldn’t want to travel this road of life with anyone else by my side. It’s a story for a whole other day, but a story that I can’t put down because she’s my main character and I’m so happy that we get to write this book together! I Love You, plain and simple, pure and sweet. Happy Birthday Sarah
– luv me and the gurls…and the dog haha

happy new year to you!

January 3, 2012~ Etc.

on new year’s eve, we let the kids stay up later than their usual bedtime and we all drank lots of sparkling cider, which the girls called it “the fancy, spicy juice”.  then we played bunch of disney princess songs and had a dance party where i was aurora’s(ana’s) prince while my husband was ariel’s(adi’s) prince.

then after we put the girls to bed, my husband and i drank more “fancy, spicy juice”, and kissed for a whole year.  a whole year since we started kissing in the year 2011 and didn’t stop until it was the year 2012. 😉  then we watched our very first episode of the dog whisperer and went to bed.  can we be any crazier and more wild?  i think not!  and i wouldn’t have it any other way. 

this year’s going to be a very good year, i just know it.  and i wouldn’t wish any less for any of you, so happiest new year to you as well!

christmas part two.

December 31, 2011~ Etc.

after we had our christmas with our little family, we went to my parents’ to celebrate with them.    everyone except for my brother jacob came into town, 🙁 which doesn’t happen so often now that we live all over the states, so it was wonderful.  families are the best, aren’t they?

1. trying to take a picture of achilles with a santa hat on.
2-3. a memory book we made for our dad. (i’m the little baby in the picture:)
4. with my beautiful mother and sister.  my dress c/o of romwe.  5. excited achilles.
6. with my sister in-laws and my sister with our matching sweaters from mom.
7-9. trying to take a family picture with all of us looking at the camera but failing.
(i thought it was hard with two toddlers but now it’s even harder with a dog!)
10. with all my family.  11. my wonderful, loving parents. 12-13. our christmas dinner.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Tiffany and Co.

December 31, 2011~ Etc.

i’ve never been a girl who cares much about expensive, brand names, but guess who is?  my husband, haha.   even before we were officially a boyfriend/girlfriend, he went to hawaii to visit his home and came back with pearl earrings and matching louis vuitton key chains for me and him.  then he bought me a matching bracelet and earrings from tiffany’s to match the heart tiffany’s necklace my sister gave me, and he almost got a tiffany’s bracelet for himself.  so i think it’s safe to say that my husband is probably more excited that Tiffany and Co. will be opening its first store in salt lake city in march, 2012.  maybe i’ll get him a matching heart bracelet so we can be true bff’s. 😉  
Tiffany and Co. has asked me to update every month until the grand opening, which i’m happy to oblige since they offer flawless, beautiful jewelry.  check out their holiday collection too.
