This is the video we posted for the FNBO pay yourself first challenge. It was really funny filming Zach do this over and over again.

My Salon!!!
We decided that it was a good idea to have a salon in our home, so here it is. I have put it to use quit a bit in the last couple weeks, I'm really hoping that continues. (Especially because I just quit my job! YIKES!)

Our house... well part of it...
So I figured even though I don't have everything the way I would like it... I should post some photos... So here they are. The first is of the kitchen, the dishwasher that came with is SUCKED so we bought this one for $4 at a garage sale and it's awesome!
This is our front room, and those are the curtains I made. I got the fabric for $1.99 a yard at IKEA, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity. Curtains can be SO expensive! Oh, and I did the ones in the kitchen... I really like those ones.
Here's our cozy little fire place. (That we haven't figured out how to turn on...) And don't you love how small our T.V. is compared to the spot in the wall they give you for it?
I put this picture on here for Stacey, Thank you! The two cutest things I have in my house are from Stacey. And not only that, I didn't get to hang my clock up in Rexburg because our apartment was too small, so it was one of the first things up when we moved in.
And this is just a picture from the front door into the kitchen... boring!

Zach's new bike!
Well, Zach has been wanting a bike for a while now, and we kept putting it off, but today we went for it... we got him one, and it is nice! I'm actually kind of jealous! JK... anyways, I told him I was going downstairs to take a picture of it and he was like, don't you want me to be in it? And of course I wanted him in it... only with his shirt off though... haha so here he is riding in front of our house with no shoes or shirt! But I'm excited that we both have bikes now... after dinner we are going for a ride, woo woo!

The Denver Zoo...
My father in law Brent had a work party at the Zoo last night, so of course Zach and I tagged along. We got to see some pretty cool animals, but most of them were sleeping or hiding while we were there. And we got to ride the carousal which I know you are all getting jealous of how much fun we are having! Oh yeah, they were handing out those straw hats for free, so Zach wore it the entire night...

Last post of the night
This one is for Liesl and Danica. In early June I got to go to Salt Lake on a "business trip" (it was really for work but all I did was go to a soccer tournament and sell Crocs...) Anyways, Business trip sounds so much cooler. So I was really lucky and didn't have to spend the whole time by myself in a boring hotel room. I got to hang out with Liesl and her family and go to dinner with Liesl and Danica. (for those of you who don't know... these are two of my dear friends from beauty school) So the picture of us at dinner I am only putting up because they asked me to. I hate it because I am so fried from being in the sun ALL day!
These other two pictures are of Ava and Lola in my shoes (like they were all weekend...) and one of them (Sorry Liesl... I don't know which one... but I think it's Lola) "reaching for the stars" They are so dang cute!

4th of July
The week before the Fourth my parents so lovingly came up to Denver to help Zach and I with repairs on our house, (which I will show pictures when everything is DONE). So we all drove down together for Jaedyn Faith Cronin's baby blessing. She is the newest addition to the Cronin Family! Chad and Angela: you made a beautiful little girl. So we had a lot of fun with my family. Here are some photos of us all together.
This picture of Zach's bum is my FAVORITE picture ever. We were setting the timers on our camera's so that everyone could be in the photo, and Zach accidently set the three second timer rather than the ten second one... so here is the picture of him scrambling to get in the picture :)

My visit to Vancouver... in April
About a week before graduation I took a trip home to visit my family. This is my grandma and I, and a picture of me and Valerie and our cousins Liam and Emma. Emma is in kindergarten so we suprised her at her lunch.

One Year Anniversary
Our one year anniversary was May 25th... I know... it's been almost two months, but I thought I would write a blog about it. Zach and I didn't want to do anything too fancy because we were about to close on our house and our anniversary was actually on a Sunday. So we celebrated on Saturday. I woke up to this:
Zach woke me up to a dozen roses. The first thing we did for our anniversary was go thrift store shopping, I found this really cute chair for $4 at the goodwill and painted it...
After I painted my new chair, we went to eat and then went bowling. We had a lot of fun. I don't want to over do it with pictures but this is us at dinner:
Also, you know how you are supposed to save the top of your wedding cake and eat it on your one year anniversary? Well we ate it about a month and a half early. Because it was at my parents house in Washington... they drove it to Caldwell ID, and then to Rexburg ID, for our graduation, so it had done a lot of freezing and unfreezing, so we thought it best to just eat it and not drive it to Denver. Here is us cutting the cake...
And I think that is enough about our anniversary!

It's been awhile...
Okay, sorry I haven't written in a while. Zach and I have been doing nothing but working on our house for the past three weeks. It has been crazy busy. We moved in last Monday which has been really nice. Except for my hour commute both ways. That part really sucks. But we love our new house. There is still work to be done, we have to hang the blinds, do paint touch ups etc, etc. Anyways, I don't want to post any pictures of the house yet... because it isn't how I want you to portray our house... So maybe in another week or two I will post some photos. Anyways, here are some pictures from the last little while:
Here are just a few pictures of our trip to the granite arch with the young women in the stake...(there were only two of them that showed up...)
This picture is actually in Idaho when Zach and I were engaged. Well, I will catch up with more recent stuff when we get our adapter for the camera to the computer that we left at my in-laws! Thanks for tuning in...
