Did I mention he spoiles me?

... and I forgot to say that my husband spoils me at times. For our anniversary he bought me a Kindle Fire. Yeah, I'm still a little ticked because we didn't "talk" about this purchase- but I love it too! It is amazing. This is coming from a girl who doesn't have the internet on her phone and has never used a touch screen- anything! I wish I was kidding. Yesterday I discovered what an App was for the first time- yeah, I'm a little sad, I know- but we could never afford all the new gadgets, so I never learned what they were ar what they did. Honestly, I joke that after the Walkman, I lost track. For real, everything exploded after that- mp3 players, i pods, ipads, crazy awesome cell phones, blackberries, bluetoothes, laptops- and I never hopped aboard, so I'm loving this little creation! I was up until almost 3:00 AM playing with it! Thanks babe for totally blowing the budget and completely spoiling me rotten! (I made the holder- these things are expensive! It's still a work in progress though!)

I love this man...

If anyone can put up with me for 13 years- they are an amazing person- which my sweet Trav truely is. I love him. I adore him. And I would be lost without him. He is my rock. My calm water and my security. Why I love him: * He understands that my love for Michael Bolton and Michael Scott are just part of the deal. * He knows that backrubs are part of getting me pregnant. * He brings me water at night when I'm thirsty and forgotten to get a bottle. * He puts up with my "pokey legs" (that's what Willow calls them) * He always brings me milkshakes after the Saturday night Priesthood sessions(after church) * He puts The Office in for me all the time because the DVD player is so high- I have to get on my tip toes to reach it. * He always drives most of the way to Seattle when we go home. * He reminds me it's time to read scriptures all the time. * He always listens to me vent. Or whine. Or complaine. Or cry. * He is such a good man. He has an amazing heart and always helps others. * He can sleep through a tornado, hurricain and child crying all at the same time. * He always fills the cars with gas because I hate to do it. * He always gets an oil change on time too. * He reads the long stories to the kids. * He buys good socks. * He is funny and makes me laugh all the time with his Ron Burgandy lines. (We are nuts about the movie: Anchor Man w/ Will Ferrall) * He adores me. Kisses me and wishes I would fall asleep curled up next to him (but I can't. I'm too claustrophobic!) * He is super smart. * He is a wonderful Daddy, a good husband and a caring son. I love you babe. Happy Anniversary!

12 Years...

Today is our 12th wedding anniversary, and boy are we exciting! I layed on the couch for 2 hours after church unable to move & Trav's laying down right now reading his book. Talk about ROMANTIC! Actually we went out last night to celebrate and it was a great night. We dropped the kids off at G-ma & G-Pa's and went to Goodwood for dinner (our favorite place!) I had my beloved sandwich and I swear, I would give anything to eat another one right now- it is pure Heaven. So beautiful. After our quiet dinner we went to Baby's R Us, the fabric store, Mc Donalds (for another free berry chiller- gosh I love those things!) and Target! What a guy- he is amazing, seriuosly. It was a total "Emily" night and he was such a trooper. What man goes to every girly store on the planet with his wife on their Anniverary? I love him. Even when I say I'll only be a minute looking at fabric and it somehow turns into 15 or 20, he's so sweet. He just pushed the cart around making jokes about ugly patterns and let me have a few minutes without kids to enjoy myself. It was a great night. I love him so much, and if I wasn't so exhausted, I would list a 100 reasons why I still can't live without him, but I am seriously about to fall over and collapse. And pictures... yeah, we hardly have any with just the two of us... here's a few...
