Michaels parents got a new Wood Burning Stove. so naturaly that means that they have to get some wood to burn in it. Well the cheepest way to get wood is in its raw form (still looking like a tree trunk) so michael is getting to play Lumber Jack. and of course he is living it because he gerts to play with a chain saw.

Michael gave me flowers and a really nice card for Valentines day. also at his moms party he gave me a deck of cards all tied together like a book and on each card he wrote reasons why he loves me. all 52 reasons. it was so sweet I think I will keep it forever. For my gift to him 
I made  him some tuxcido chocolate covered Strawberrys. they turned out so cute! I should be a profetional! 



We also had to move this month to a new place because the house we were renting forclosed so we decided to move to Rogue River and rent a place form a friend of ours that has has trouble selling there house. I am so excited because I have room for a table and the kitchen is bigger! oh and the kitchen floor is so beautiful!

Michaels Project for January



Michael has been helping a friend of ours build a garage for the past month. It has been quite the task. but Michael is really good at doing this kind of thing. They had the building fall down on them once :( but now it is up there nice and sturdy. I wish he wouldn't tell me when things like that happen. it makes me nevus. lol. but he loves playing in his bob cat .

catching up!


Well we have a lot to catch up on from the last few years of Michael and I being together. We have done a lot of fun things. we have gone to the Santa Cruse Beach Boardwalk, the Oregon Coast, San Diego, the California Redwoods, We got married (that's a biggie) yay! we got our first place. and had a lot more fun things happen. I think the best way to describe all the wonderful times we have had together it to just put up a bunch of pictures.







We went down to Saratoga, Ca to visit with Michael's Grandparents Marilin and John. We did a lot of things with them. We visited this historical home that had acres of beautiful gardens.



Photo Above: Stephanie, Michael, Marilin and John.


Photo Left: Lots of Beautiful Brick Archways
and wrought Iron Gates.










After we went to the gardens we
got to have a little more fun visiting the Santa Cruse Beach Boardwalk. we didn't ride any rides though (Michael doesn't like them) we still had a lot of fun. and I got to have my beach fix! Michael got to have his Arcade fix. lol.















we had a lot of fun on that visit lots of good memories. :)



Michael and I took a small road trip to the redwoo
ds and the coast. it was a lot of fun. I had not been there scene I was a kid. and now that I have been back they seem to have grown even taller than I remember! but we had a good time sticking our heads out the window and looking up at them as we drove by.



We had a good time at the coast too. collecting shells and pretty rocks! there was even a pretty cool light house near by. great Photo opportunity so we took advantage of it.



Then the Wedding Bells Rang and on April 6, 2007 we got married in the Sacramento Temple. We got so lucky with the weather too. the day before was smoggy and yucky out and the day after was the same way. but it was a very fun day although our cheeks hurt so bad from smiling for pictures all day long.















These are pictures of our wedding cake and our reception hall. I wanted to do the more traditional wedding reception instead of a reception at the church.
