6 Months

Jun 08
So, this is actually 2 months late. But - we did have a fun time celebrating. Being married is the funnest experience I've ever had! Why didn't anyone  tell me it was so great?!?! We didn't do much, just had a nice dinner. But Andrew surprised me with a gift. He bought me some Red Toms - which I'd been wanting for a while. So here are some pictures:
This is our fancy dinner we made. Thanks to Craig and Karrie  for the sparkling cider.

6 Months!!!


Here are the Tom's Andrew bought me.




Trip to CO and other fun things...

Jun 08
For Memorial day we took a trip to see family in Colorado. ROAD TRIP!!!! We left after work on Thursday, came back Monday. We had such a fun weekend and really enjoyed spending time with family. We got to spend Courtnie's birthday with her, see Ashley, George, and Ed, spend time with Amie and her family, go on a picnic, play games, go for a hike. It was so fun! Here are some pictures from the trip.
Colorful Colorado!!

Road trippin with my favorite person!

I love cute bridges



Mom and Courtnie on our hike



Mom and dad

I don't know how these girls had any energy to climb up all these rocks. I was tired just climbing.


Such a beautiful hike.

Happy Birthday Courtnie! 13 years old!

After the hike...we were so tired!


I can't remember the name of this waterfall...








Adorable little Ed!

Lucy! Eating her sandwich as fast as she can so she can get back to the playground




JEFF'S BIRTHDAY:
Recently we also celebrated Jeff's Birthday. He lived with us for a while, and we had so much fun when he was around! We miss him now that he moved to SLC.
Here are the pictures


Jeff got a bball for his birthday, and Craig was a little jealous.


Jeff's bday presents!

Jeff's cake - chocolate with cookies and cream frosting. Yum!




The fam. So much fun! Ali came down - it was a blast.

LIFE IN THE POTTER HOME
Here are some random pictures of our life:
Face masks!!!


Homemade donuts. What?!?!

I love fresh fruit - my favorite part of summer.

Putting up curtains.

So...these were my anthropology inspired curtains, but they didn't turn out  exactly how I wanted


Totally felt like a wifey-wife...I went and met Andrew at work and we ate dinner together.

We play cards with Craig and Karrie most weekends - here Craig and  Andrew are watching  TV rather than playing the game. I guess we shouldn't expect too much focus while NBA playoffs are going on.

Jeff's Camera

Mar 12
So like the Christmas post, the same with this one. It's almost a year late, but I finally downloaded pics from Jeff's camera. Some of these are from my graduation a year ago - and some are more recent. Just a mix of pics!
My grandpa. This is such a great picture of him. I love it!

My grandma. I look at this picture and I think of wisdom and a life filled with service.

I love making apple pie (mainly because I love eating it)

Andrew's birthday. 



This was Andrew's birthday cake. Salted Caramel cake. YUM!


Okay - this was a while ago. My mom was helping me pack up my stuff and move out.

My graduation!

My good friend Ruth. RUTH! I miss her!


Amanda - my next door neighbor back home and my roommate at BYU for a couple of years. It was really sweet of her to come to my graduation.

Andrew came, so nice

Jeff - I love him! He's so good at making me laugh!

We went to The Chocolate after dinner. I L.O.V.E. this place!

This was the group that came to my graduation, and we went to dinner/dessert after. Dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, Andrew, me, Jeff, Karrie, Craig




My besty: Shayla Beth Matthews





We think we're the funniest people in the world.

My dad said Andrew should have stood on the end so that if we broke up  we could just photoshop him out. 

I'm not sure what's going on in this picture - but now everyone knows where I got my smile from! I love my mom! I want to be like her when I grow up!

We went to India Palace for lunch. This pic is out front of the restaurant.



Karrie!!
Anyway - these are old pictures - but I'm glad I got to share them with y'all!
