big days

we’ve had a few important days recently. first, our anniversary on the 21st. since mckay was on a kayaking trip we had to wait until he got back to celebrate. since dates with just the two of us are scarce we decided to splurge and get a hot stone couples massage, fancy pants. we’ve gotten massages one other time in our life, so this was a treat. once I got over the initial weirdness of letting some stranger rub oils on my body it was heavenly.

so four years of married life with my sweetheart. so much I could say. so much mushy stuff. what fun we have had. of course we’ve had our ups and downs, just like everyone, but I couldn’t imagine life with a better husband. and now with a babe, oh my goodness did I get lucky. mckay is the most wonderful dad. we love our little life and are so excited for what the future has in store for us.

and on to the next big day, Chris entered the mtc yesterday. it was sad to say goodbye, but he was so excited and so prepared that we couldn’t help but be happy and excited for him. He will be serving in the Chile, Osorno mission and we know he is going to be incredible. for anyone keeping track…this is the third brother in a row we’ve sent out on a mission, and the second time two brothers have overlapped (marty comes home this october). we are very proud of our brothers for serving missions and grateful for the blessings our families receive because of them.

lastly, school started this week, which means the rat tail is no more, a noteworthy day indeed.
