Hair Cut!!

As many of you know and have seen, Jared has not been cutting his hair. His whole goal was to not cut his hair the first year we were married. => He wanted one of those surfer/snowboarder shags! =>He started growing it, and around 4 months of growth I loved it! His hair is so soft and I loved playing with it, not to mention it look very handsome! Then it started getting long to the point of it being noticably long, and he still wouldnt trim it. lol He started getting really annoyed with it, he said he felt like a girl because he always had to do his hair before we went out. So Monday we went over to his old roommates apartments for dinner, but we ended up getting a show! They buzzed Jareds head! It was so funny! Here are some pictures! => The first one at the top of this post was taken one day before the buzzing =>


They are going to do it!!!! =>


In the action of cutting this long luscious hair! =>


A little detour in the process, they left a little curl... awww how cute!! hehehe =>


This was a two man job! Jed cut away the fluff, and Brett blended

The finished product! He is such a rebellious little man, I said smile and at the last minute he did this face, I dont even know what to call it =>
Look at all that hair! And this is even after the vaccuumed half of it up, then we decided to take a picture, so Brett swept the rest into a pile! Dang Jared had a lot of hair!! =>

My Handy Man!

I LOVE JARED! As I am sure you all know! => And if he is not amazing enough, he is an incredible handy man! He plumber the Twin Falls temple and is currently plumbing for BYU Idaho in their new building. And his handy talents do not go un used around the house => A couple months after we moved into this apartment, the pipes under the sink broke. I dont really know what happened except that I was rinsing dishes and all of a sudden my feet were soaked => Needless to say he fixed it in a heartbeat when he got home from work => (i had a picture of it somewhere but I cant find it)
Jared and I have a washer, but no dryer. So I would wash our stuff at home, then take it all to a laundry mat to dry it. Two weeks ago Jared went and got a dryer and suprised me with it! He is so cute! But there was something wrong with the cord (3 prongs instead of 4) And Jared didnt fret, he just took apart the back of the dryer and replaced it =>
And, as a third tale of his super handy man capabilities, Jared and I went to Twin Falls yesterday for his dentist appointment, but his Mom's sink was leaking very badly. So super Jared went to the store, bought a new faucet and stuff, and instaled it! => I am so proud of him!! =>
Ok, I am almost done gushing about how great Jared is. But as I was getting these pictures to put on this blog I found one of Jared cooking! He is an inceredible cook! And I just love it when he cooks! He doesnt do it often, but when he does, it is my favorite treat! => This picture is of a Saturday, when we both had a really long week, so we slept in rather late, and he made breakfast/lunch! It was so good! =>

My husband is amazing! And I am eternally grateful for him and all the things he does!!! I love him!!!!

Bad Habit Turned Romantic!

I have been married almost 6 months, and have known Jared a couple months over a year, and although that is not a very long time, I have discovered something! => Jared is perfect! He is more than I ever could have wished for, and he never ceases to astound me! And I can only tell you one bad habit he has. And tho this habit does bother me sometimes (especially when I get physically injured by it) => I have to be grateful for it. Because if Jared did not have this less than pleasing habit, he would be twinkled => But, as much as I may not appretiate this habit fully, I cant help but laugh and love my husband even more for doing it yesterday! => I know, you are all probably sitting on the edge of your seat wondering what this habit is. Well wait no further.... it is.......... leaving cupboard doors OPEN! =>I know, that is so horrible! => lol Well yesterday Jared went to work early in the morning as usual, and this morning I did not get up and make him breakfast like I sometimes do (I know I am so horrible) => So I wake up after he has left and I go out into the kitchen and what do I see, every single cupboard door opened!!! So I begin my routine of walking through the kitchen and closing the doors, and to my suprise, Jared had left little love notes on every one of the doors! And they all said various things, ultimately meaning "I Love You" He had used his habit for romance!!! Needless to say that made my whole day!! And I just had to share that cute story with you all! => I have the best husband in the world!! I love him!!!

This is how I saw the kitchen when I work up! => Talk about a potential hazzard! =>
And these are all my handsome's love notes!! Isn't he just a dream?!?!?! I LOVE HIM!!!!!

Family Fun!

I am always seem to never have pictures of anything, yet I always have my camera with me. Well this past weekend while we were down in Utah, I have 2 cameras with me at all times, and did I take many pictures.... nope => but here are the pictures that I did manage to take of my wonderful family!

I dont know what it is with boys an video games, but as soon as all of them were in the room together, Mario Cart came on and this is what you saw => And of course it was intermingled with some 007 action too =>
On Friday the siblings were talking buisness and then going to the viewing, so Jared and I took some kids to go see "Pink Panther 2" in the movie theater in Layton. Cute kids, ok movie =>
This is the only picture I have on the day of the funeral. The siblings went down to the church before, to be there for the viewing, but that was 2 hours long, so Jared and I watched the kids at the house then brought them down right before the funeral. This is when Cole asked Jared to help him put his church shoes on. =. And believe it or not, Jared was actually able to get the shoes on and tied like this, even with Cole laughing the whle time => I have such a talented husband!! =>
Sunday was the lucky day of delivering the furniture to the rest of the families. My dad rented a Uhaul trailer and the manly men were loading and delivering items all day! => They are so nice! This is part of one of the biggest entertainment systems I have ever seen =>
Can You see my dad back there? They were stuffing him in with the cargo! =>
Wow, this is turning out to be a very long post => These are three of my uncles, taking a break from all the heavy loading and plaing with their new swords. =>
The Charlies Angels pose! From left to right, Todd has the Robin Hood sword, Matt has the 3 Muskateers sword, and John has the Milenium sword, and behind them is Exscalaber (is that how you spell it?)
And the last picture I have of the whole weekend is my dad knighting Kaden with Esxcalaber, for being such a faithful and devoted moving-things helper! =>

I just love my family!!!!

Living in Their Happily Ever After!

Last night my Grandpa Pommerville was reunited with my Grandma, around 9pm. He was surrounded by 10 out of his 11 children, who had been singing him songs, reading him stories and scriptures. He was diagnosed with Leukemia (AML) about 3 weeks ago. He spent about 9 days in the hospital courageously fighting multiple complications. Saturday the doctors came to the realization that they could do no more. My Grandpa wanted to die in his home, so the ambulance took him home Saturday night and he passed away Sunday night, just about 24 hours later.

Although I was not there, I know it was a peaceful passing, and that the spirit was present. My Grandpa loved the Lord and served him valiantly all his days. Whomever he came in contact with, whether briefly or to make a lasting relationship, they would always feel the love of the Lord through him. And they would know, and could feel my Grandpas love for his Lord.

My Grandma passed away a little over a year ago, and Grandpa has missed her dearly. I am thankful for the year we have had with him! But I am also thankful that he will be with his love, no longer suffering from any of their physical illnesses, but whole, healthy and together, never to be separated again! Living in their Happily Ever After!
I loved, and still love my grandparents. They were living a Christ-like life in every way. They lived a life of selfless service and love, and I have no doubt that they are continuing that legacy, now together, to further the work of our Lord, to save their beloved brothers and sisters who did not get an opportunity while on the earth, and to further their love and relationship, for time and all eternity. I know they are together, and will never be separated again.

"There are more people than can ever be accounted for that have loved, cherished and will forever be touched by a man that is more remarkable than anyone can comprehend"

Rock Climbing!

Saturday was a momentous day for Jared and I! It was the day we met at the temple one year ago!! That is so crazy!! I have known Jared for one year, and in that year we got married!!! => Who knew that would ever happen?!?! => Well on saturday we went to the place we had our first date, a rock climbing gym (we actually didnt know it was our one year knowing anniversary until after)!! We went with two og his guy friends, one of their girlfriends, and my friend Bri. It ended up being a triple date, but we did not plan on it being that way => It was so much fun!!! And i discovered how in shape my husband is and how out of shape and weak I am =>


These are the girls!!! (Bri, Drue, and me!)
This, I think, is a cool picture. Jared is belaying Bri => (the spots are dusts of chalk floating around, this place wasnt well ventalated)


My handsome climbing the over hang wall!!! => Just a little story, I was the only girl to successfully complete this wall (and you really do get parallell to the ground) but seeing as I was the camera girl, there were no pictures, but you are just going to have to trust me, I did it, and I got the sore arms to prove it =>
The boys were playing around on the belaying walls, so Bri and I went over to the bouldering wall and started fooling around. This picture is titled "Rock On" => oh I'm so clever =>
This is a picture of the whole group after we finished. (Drue, Tom, Brett, Bri, Jared, and Me) The funny thing about this picture is that the happiest couple (people) are actually not a couple at all => (Brett and Bri look the happiest) I found that rather amusing =>



This video is just so cool to me. You know, boys must be boys => Jared decided he wanted to try a "dino" (jumping from the middle of the wall to another rock farther away than you can normally reach) so he did it, and looked mighty fine while doing it => And all the boys followed suit, but he is the only one that did it on the first try and with such grace and power! => I think its so cool how he jumps and gets the rock, pulls himself up, and kneels on the fall (parallell to the ground mind you) and looks so chill => its cool =>

The Power of Influencing!

So I have to say I am so proud of myself, I have the super power of innfluence. => Ok so not really, maybe just tonight it seems like it => Tonight I Jared and I played with some of his friends and my old roommate Bri and one of our conversations was how I corrupted everyone I know in some way or another => I had never really thought about it, and its kind of cool => And my influencing power has been used for good yet again! => I got my cousin to start a blog!! Thats two people who started a blog under my belt!! Woo! (ok yes I am under my friend Katies belt, but whos counting =>) My cousin Cera has started one! The address is: http://www.ceraelyse.blogspot.com/
Oh I am so proud, my baby is all grown up and starting a blog! => I just wanted to tell family, that way it would be easier for us all to get connected in the vast world of blogs! => And I just have to say, I love seeing everyones blogs!! Most of you do such a wonderful job at keeping them up! It makes me feel closer to you, even though we are miles and miles away => Thank you! and I love you!!!

My Home-making Craft!

I have been inspired by my aunt to start craft projects to better my home. => I spend quite a bit of time at home doing nothing of significance, so the other day I decided to start a craft project => I bravely entered into the craft store (in the middle of the day again with the experienced ladies) and set out to find a home improving project! I saw these red bamboo-ish rods that I liked but I didnt know what to do with them, and then I remembered the cute letters my aunt Corianne made for her little girl to play with. I went to go get some letters and on my way I saw some things hanging from a garland with raffia (it helped that some of those things were the connected word signs) and I got an idea! This began the budding of a home making project! Yay my first one!! => I set out to make my wall sign!! And I could not have done it without the helpful pointers from Corianne and Gram!!! I really appretiate the time you took to talk to me and teach me little craft pointers! Well, this is my final product! Let me know what you think of it!

I painted the letters, sanded the edges to get that rustic look, gathered the bamboo, and tied it all together!Yay! Proof of me being a little home maker!!! =>

Consentrating so hard =>
The finished product!!! And I spelled our name right!! Wooo!!! =>

A closer look at the fake bamboo and raffia.
My parents gave us the picture of the Newport Beach temple on the left! It is one of those olden day looks, it is gorgeous! Thank you again Mom and Dad! We love it!!
The colors of the sign match my house (maybe, I am still deciding if I like it =>) I have red accents all over, so it was just fitting that the accent should be red. There is a tan table runner on our table and one of the colors on our couch is tan, so that should bring in the raffia, and the picture of the temple is black and rustic, and other things in our house are black or dark wood so I figured black lettering would be perfect.
I still am not too sure about it, it seems like something is missing or something is a little off. If you guys can think of anything I would appretiate your suggestions, and if I add anything new, I will be sure to post it! =>

Happy New Year!!

Oh goodness, its like I havent posted anything since last year => Jared and I spent New Years with my Grandpa and aunts and uncles in Utah. That was way fun, and it was also kind of crazy. You see, I did the same thing last year (spent New Years with my fam in Utah), and in no way shape or form did I think I was going to be married to the man of my dreams by the same time next year! => Although it is weird to think about it like that, I am overwhelmingly grateful for Jared and the opportunities we have had together! We went down to Ogden on New Years Eve and stayed until the 4th. We had so much fun playing with family!!








Before "Happy New Years" the boys played Play Station (Mario Cart and James Bond) and the girls took jumping pictures (I will get those soon =>)

And this New Years, Jared had his first ever (and of many to come) New Years Kiss!!!





On Friday Jared and I went snowboarding at Wolf Mountain and then went to Heather and Davids house to eat dinner and play games.





We played Blokus, Disney Princess Memory Game, and Yatzhee. Jared and David look sooo happy playing the princess game =>

My prince won the princess game!!! Oh I am so proud!! =>

The loving couple leaving Heather and Davids!! I love him!!!!





This is one og the funniest pictures of Jared and Orson. I love how they have the same look (Todd was talking to Jared) =>





I still can not believe how much Orson looks like Todd. We even compared baby pictures and they could be twins!!




Justine was going sledding with Todd and was so cute I had to take a picture!!




Its the Snow Crew!!! (Saturday) Jared and David went snowboarding at Snow Basin and Justine and Todd went sledding on the hill my Grandpas house! So cute!

While Jared and David were off galavanting in the snow, Heather came up with her little girl Holland and we had a girls day! => These two were so cute playing together!
