The last 8 months....

Last but not least, the month of November. My Mom, Dani, Grandma and Grandpa Erickson, Todd & Diane came to Rexburg for the Extravadance performance Whitney and Mikaela were in. It was so nice to see my family and have them (Mom & Dani) stay with Tanner and I.

So of course, at the end of the month, we carved pumpkins for Halloween. Mine was cuter.

Tanner left his s'mor on the grill to melt the chocolate... he ended up with a charcoaled gram cracker

The next weekend, Tanner took me on a fun/cold date in the mountains. We took our little grill and roasted marshmellows, made hot chocolate and layed in the truckbed to look at the stars. I only lasted about 15 minutes because of the cold...

The month of October was full of fun dates Tanner took me on. The first was on an unusually warm, beautiful sunny day we went to Idaho Falls and walked the green belt together right in front of the temple and fed the geese. (It was really bright, as you can see with my cute squinting)

The Beautiful Redwoods

The next month, August, Tanner and I took and nice trip to California to see both our family's! The first half was spent in San Fransisco with Courtney and Tyson and my family as they blessed their precious baby Colter. We then drove up to Patrick's Point for the annual Nordstrom camping trip! We had such a blast!

I think the next event in our life would have been 4th of July. We were planning on going to Idaho Falls for the fireworks show, when at about noon, Tanner's sister, Laura, called us and said she had extra tickets to The Stadium of Fire in Provo! We jumped in the truck and got there just in time as the show was starting. The performers were The Blueman Group (awesome) and Myalee Cirus (sorta awesome). The fireworks show was amazing and we drove home right after the show so Tanner could get the work the next day.

This was my favorite activity. We woke up at about 4:30am to be out to the dock to load on a boat and go SNOOBING! This is a mix between scuba diving and snorkling. We went about 25 feet below the surface and saw some amazing things. They served us breakfast on the boat and we did some swimming.

The next day we spent on the warf shopping and that evening went on a dinner cruise and watched whales as the sun was setting.

First we went to a Luau where it rained when we were standing in line, but right when the show started, the rain stopped! It such a neat show with some very talented fire dancers and singers

So the day after the wedding we had the reception then we were off to Maui, Hawaii for our honeymoon! The few pictures I'm adding doesn't do justice to how many I actually took and all the things Tanner and I did the week we were there.

Well, since I FINALLY decided to start a blog, I thought it might be fun to fit the last eight months into one post! I thought I'd start with some of my favorite Wedding pictures taken by Vicki with CTR Image.
