Being Commissioned....

Our good friend Marcus is now a commission officer in the Army. On Thursday we went down to Salt Lake to see him get sworn in. He is getting ready to go to Dental School in Oklahoma. His family and him will be leaving in May to move there. Matt and I are excited to see them adjust to Army life and hope the best for them. I was telling Nicole (the wife) about all these different things to expect, she seams so excited. I think she is more excited to go the commissary then anything else. Here's some pictures from service.

Marcus is the one on the far right, being sworn in.

I know it's blurry, but that's Marcus shaking hands and getting his Letter.

Matt and I had a good time, we especially had fun at Crown Burger. If any of you haven't had Crown Burger, I recommend it. If anyone has a good recommendations in downtown Salt Lake let me know.

6 Years today!

Matt and I have been married 6 years. I started this post and then forgot. So sorry it's late. We had a wonderful day. We got up early and went to the Hogle Zoo with some friends Marcus, Nicole and their girls. We had a blast. Then we went to see Aunt and Robbie, we chatted with them for about an hour. We found this cute little bakery in downtown, when we first moved here, so we stopped there after we left there. When we got home Matt took a nap, after about 2 and a half hours, I told him to get up, he was ruining our anniversary by sleeping. Gotta love him. After he got up we went bowling, I won the first game 121 to 97. And I would of won the second game, but I lost instead 114 to 87. I did terrible that game. Then we drove down to Nicklecade. I love Nicklecade. There is this truly evil game, that you drop a ball into holes, I could stand there for hours, playing. Stupid game, you take my money and then you give me crappy toys in return. I know all of this but I still love it. Here's so pics from the day.

Elaine (blue jacket) and Lily touching the big ball. Apparently it was freezing, I was smart enough not to touch it.

This turkey was so pretty. It started to puff up and walk towards us, it totally freaked Matt out it was awesome.

Marcus, Elaine, and Lily. They were sitting on an elephant trunk.

We thought this Ape was dead, until he started flinching.

This looked like a house cat, it wasn't.

I would like this as house cat though. They are just so pretty.

They drained the penguin enclosure, so they didn't come outside very often. He came out to say hi, we were so glad he came out. Elaine and Lily were so disappointed they weren't out.

Nicole and Lily on the Carousel.

Matt bowling. This is when I won. Yeah for me.

We had an incredible anniversary. It has been 6 great years and can't wait for more and more to come. I love you Matt. Thanks for everything. You're the best.
