I Shouldn't Kiss My Husband

Dear Nathan,

You gave me a cold. That wasn't very nice of you. Please take it back.

Sincerely,
Kim

Happy Valentine's Day

Dear Nate,

Forever and always.

Compliment

There are some things I never get tired of. Today I was at the grocery store and as I was paying the male cashier stopped me and asked if he could see my ring. He asked where my husband had purchased it and paid me tons of compliments. It totally made my day. Even though I've been wearing that ring for years now, I felt like I did when I first engaged and all your friends and family ask to see your ring. I have to admit, Nate has good taste. So a big thanks to the cashier for being so kind to me today, I've been in a great mood ever since!

Happy Groundhog's Day!

Happy Groundhog's Day everyone! I hope you are all ready for six more weeks of winter.

Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk

Last night Nate and I went out with Benji and Amanda. We went out to dinner and then played indoor miniature golf. Pretty sure I didn't win. I did however get the night's only hole in one! I think Amanda won, she had a lot of great shots that should have gone in. Of course I didn't remember to take one single picture. I should have made that one of my New Year's resolutions. I need to take more pictures.

Also last night, Nate was making a bowl of cereal and I kept telling him that he was adding too much milk. Moments later he sat down to eat and........................

I did manage to get a picture this time. Moral of this story--the wife is always right!

P.S. Nate tells me that Trix aren't just for kids.

Two and a Half Years

Mondays are never fun. But this week Tuesday was my least favorite. Tuesday marked the two and a half year mark for us. We've now been trying to have a baby for over two and a half years. No wonder I've cried three out of four days this week. Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would ever take this long, and to be honest, I don't feel like we are anywhere near having a baby. I'm so exhausted from carrying this pain around. I hurt everyday and I know Nate does too. Don't get me wrong, some days are much easier than others. This week is just hard because of yesterday, and my birthday is also coming up which makes me feel old and just marks another age at which I won't be a mother. Just a little down about things today.

Family Home Evening

I am in charge of FHE tonight and I have no ideas! I've used up all my good ideas. Ugh! Does anyone have cute suggestions that work for two people?

The Princess and the Frog

Nate received some free movie tickets from his office for his birthday. The catch was that they couldn't be used on a new movie, the movie had to have been out for at least 12 days. So this weekend we went and saw The Princess and the Frog. It was actually pretty cute. The villain was a little too creepy for me. If I were a young child I would have been pretty scared. It wasn't too bad going to an older movie. Nate and I had the theater almost entirely to ourselves, so we had our pick of seats and it was nice and quiet. All in all, we had a good time, and we recommend the movie.

Happy New Year!

Happy 2010 to everyone! I hope everyone had fun last night, I know that we did. We had some friends and family over. Everyone brought some yummy treats and we played games and had lots of laughs. The girls won Battle of the Sexes even though the boys were cheating with Nate's iPhone. We should have known that they didn't know the ingredients to marzipan! Hopefully everyone had a fun and safe New Year's Eve! Best wishes for 2010!

Hi Elder Smith!

Nate's younger brother Zak came home on Friday night from Germany. Zak was serving a mission in Frankfurt, Germany and has been ill for a while now. He is home for a little bit trying get everything diagnosed and figured out. Thanks to everyone who came out to the airport to greet Zak, we know it was short notice. We love Zak and we will sure enjoy seeing him for Christmas! Here are some photos that I took on Friday night.
