Family Pictures

*****Warning*****

This post contains A LOT of pictures

This weekend my SIL Nikki was kind enough to do a photo shoot for us. Here are some of our pictures.

 

 I think these are so cute. This is Averys first time on a swing. She was laughing so loud and hard it was so cute.

 Sorry I know this was long, I just have a hard time narrowing it down. :) Avery did such a good job. The pictures at the beginning we were right by this pond with all these stream and there were A LOT of ducks. in fact in one of the pictures while we were sitting on one side of the stream Nikki was on the other trying to get Avery's attention and a duck swam by right on front of us. It was kinda funny. Avery got so excited, she was quacking like a duck the whole time. :p Anyway thanks for looking.

Lucky Seven

I cant believe it's already been 7 years. James and I met at the LDS Printing Division in 2006. After our friend Pesi tried to convince James that I liked him and that he should ask me out. He didn't believe her and it took her betting him $5. He figured he could use $5...man was he wrong :p. we went on our first date to the zoo and the rest is history. 

 James and I were married on Oct 7, 2006 in the Salt Lake temple

2007

We have learned new things about ourselves and each other. We have stuck together through time and trials. And even though we have had a lot of people tell us we need to call it quits we pressed on and stuck through it. 

2008

We have grown together and have become a great team. I have learned so much from James as well as myself. 

2009

 James has helped me to see the strength in myself that I never knew or thought was there. I cant believe that James and I have been together for 7 years. It really doesn't feel like it.

2010

When it comes to holidays James and I are a perfect fit. We love decorating and celebrating.

2011

When we finally got pregnant but then lost the baby. James was so supportive, he was by my side through it all. He helped me get through it.

2012

(I don't know why it's sideways) James is a wonderful father to our sweet Avery. they absolutely adore each other. She is such a daddy's girl and I love it.

2013

I love you James. It's been a wonderful 7 years and I look forward to the rest we will spend together.

Happy Anniversary

Guess what this month is...
