Growing Up or Subconsciously Missing You?

or
When she asks you to clean your room so you go in there and get lost in tweets and status's on your phone?
how about
Ever since you were little, you were always reminded but dreaded eating your dinner before your dessert? 

I did each one of those countless times through out my kiddo years but now that i'm married the tables have turned on myself. 
I put that tie on the bread.clean my room on my own.&eat my dinner and dessert how i'm supposed to. 
This has been on my mind as of late,,  Catch my self doing things the way Momma did.  The very things i rebelled against just because I could. 
I can't help but wonder am i growing up or am i trying to keep you right here with me? 
You know the twist tie you take off of the bread and Momma says, please tie it back on so the bread doesn't dry out? but you never do? 

Love you momma(: And Happy Birthday.

Love the very best smess maker:)

Our Unique Tradition- It's A Must

Jordan and I were discussing which movie to watch last Saturday night.  We just couldn't decide! I know, its a dilemma that plagues us all.  For once I am grateful for this indecisive occurrence. For it is how we decided on our first tradition. One of our very own, One that is very much us. & one that those little boys of mine i'm gonna have someday in the distant future, will adore... 
Superhero Sunday

It may simply just be the greatest thing we have ever thought of.

So there you have it.. 
Our very own tradition and it's one for the books.
Next Sunday you can catch me lounging here, 
watching super hero's save planet earth from its demise,
 In my Superman shirt.
And possibly a cape. 
A worthwhile investment if you ask me.

It's Simple; I Believe It To Be More

As of late I've been thinking about this so called honey moon phase.. 
As a kid I never quite understood the very thought of it. 
is he only your prince charming for a year? 
or
does love lessen with time?
Ridiculous.
Your love is what you make it. 
How is it possible to simply let go of the way he makes you feel when he calls you beautiful when he calls you his?  
Does your memory fade of the first time he told you he loved you & you said it back without the shadow of a doubt?
Do you forget about the nights you stayed up thinking of him and wondering if you ever cross his mind? 
The very moment he became yours . . .
you felt like you could fly. 
and on your very first kiss you did.
& now that you have him, did you lose the desire to be loved by him?

Perhaps you will say I do not understand.
That I have not yet been married for 10, 20, 30 years. . .
If that crosses your mind here are my sentiments-
How lucky are you, to have had the opportunity to love and be loved by the one you swore yourself to forever.  That you have learned and grew and struggled and loved together for so long. . . That you are a living example of relentless love. Through storms and darkness you stayed together, sometimes carrying you both through on your own..  You are living my very dream and that of many others who haven't been blessed with the opportunity-or those who have not reached it yet. 
I simply do not believe in such a thing as love fading, you shouldn't either. How could you?
Are there no butterflies when he gets home from work and sweeps you off your feet? If not where did they go? Reach down and find them. Then find him and smother him in kisses. Don't let the thoughts of others lead you to believe that you've lost the love you'd die to keep. 

17 months isn't a very long time. . . I know this, but i live in today to keep our love tomorrow. And I will do the same until we reach that 10 that 20 that 30 years. 
Our love will not fade. How do I know this?
It's Simple; I Believe It To Be More.

Because our Home is our Haven

If there is one thing that i absolutely adore about my house it would be how itsy bitsy it is! I know that sounds crazy but here are my reasons of adoration
1- It certainly isn't even close to being large enough to get frightened in.(i'm terribly scared of bad guys :/ )
2- Heaven knows i'm not a cleaner.  Once i'm done cleaning the three rooms we have I'M DONE. haha. 
3- It keeps Jordan and I close. (: When we do things, we do them together.  There is no family room with a tv to run and escape to when i turn to a grump.       There is no office to run to, to stay glued on a computer screen all day.  There is our room, our kitchen and our bathroom. And for us, that is plenty(: ohh. and my favorite. our balcony: )
I have decided to share our mini place, enjoyy:




Here is our kitchen:









This is a view of our entire kitchen, minus our stove which is hiding to the left of the counter(:
This is a close up of my old fashioned sink and our counter.  Yes, that is all the counter space in the whole place.
lucky mee(:
This is my secret compartment that I have yet to use....... Its very nifty.


wait for it..

wait for it..


okay you can stop waitin TADA!!  
Its my trusty little built in ironing bored.. haha exciting  i  know. 

And this my friends, is my lovely little snow shack of a fridge.
The whole inside of the back freezes and turns to snow. No worries.
We always have a little slice of winter here...

Oh. were you wondering where my freezer is?
its inside. And its about 8 inches tall and a foot and a half wide.
Let me tell you about how much i CAN'T fit in it.
but that's okay.
because i love it. ANNNDDD its the first fridge i am taller then, and that my friends is an accomplishment that i consider
note worthy.


Off to the bathroom we go (:



Thats all there is to it folks.  Jordan's mom jokes about how you have to step over the toilet to get in the shower.
and its true..






Here comes our bedroom and balcony, ( :


This is our dresser.  And only chair in the house. yess.(:

Oh my beautiful balcony.  My sissy Josie asked me if the porch was white or brown originally . . . .
we decided on both. Due to all the pain spattering's on it, you really couldn't tell. 

See that BYU scentsy?? I cannot tell you how long I have wanted it
& thanks to my momma i have it! it is my absolute favorite thing in my itty bitty lovely home(:

and that quilt? I cannot even begin to tell you how talented my aunt ann is.  I LOVE IT.
I have wanted a quilt from her in the longest of time. And i have one..
(: checkin that baby off the list. 

and my bed.  It is big. It is Comfy. And it is on the floor.. No bad guys under there ehh? yeahh(:
On a side note. I'm a pro bed maker. if you couldnt tell by the picture haha..



My home is our haven.  I love it, and wouldn't change a thing about it. 
Apartment B23A at the Covey, is mine and Mr. Larson's first home. And I will always love it. 
It makes me beyond happy, I love living in the city, I love my new life(:
