A work in progress

Bruce and I have been working on putting our home together. It is coming along...Bruce is almost finished with the last item for our bedroom. He has put together 2 night stands, and 2 dressers. He's great. I just watch. The next thing we will work on will be our living room and dining area. Pictures to come.

Beau Reincarnated

As most of you know, we had a Cocker Spaniel named Beau. He was a huge part of the Mangus family. He became sick and we had to put him down a few years ago. I came across this picture last night. I'm convinced that Beau is part of another family now.

Back in the Game...

Look at our fun pumpkins! I'm a little proud...

So, apparently I have never posted on my blog. Obviously I have no idea what I am doing. Thanks to a little pressure I am ready to re-commit. A lot has happened in the past few months. July, I created a blog. I had a few wedding showers, worked on the wedding, and played. August, one of my best friends got married. I was able to attend her wedding in the Nauvoo, Illinois temple. It was an incredible experience. The rest of the month I continued to work. I was so excited for September! Family arrived and we were off for Nauvoo on Wednesday September 5th. Bruce and I were married on Thursday in the Nauvoo temple. It was amazing! Everything ran smoothly. I wouldn't have changed one thing! It is now October. I love this time of year!! It is the beginning of the holidays. And I have a whole new appreciation for it. At this time last year, Bruce and I began dating. Last Friday, we went to the punmkin patch with my friend Amanda and her boyfriend Chris. We went through a corn maze, picked pumpkins and bought fresh apples from the apple store. This past Monday we had a Family Home Evening on traditions. We discussed important traditions both of us enjoyed growing up. We made caramel apples and carved the pumpkins we picked out on Friday. We are looking forward to implementing many different traditions into our family. We enjoy spending time together. I have never been so happy in my life.

Opposites Attract

He popped the question, I said yes,
In September, I'll wear a white dress

He will be the one wearing the tux,
Little did he know, he'd spend several bucks

There will be lots of fun and laughter,
Stay tuned for a happy ever after
