I must admit

Ok I have come to a conclusion I have made a very big mistake. This is hard for me to say because it makes me feel horrible and I would have never seen this about 10 months ago. About this time last year was beginning to become very busy with my life. I was about to get married and our house wasn't done yet and everything felt very rushed trying to make everything complete by April 26. I should have noticed it then but I didn't and I feel very ashamed of myself, but my husband is truly amazing!!! I have never thought he was lazy but it just hit me how above and beyond he goes to make me happy. He remodeled our amazing house last year that I truly am in love with but its now the little things he does to make me realize how blessed I am to have him in my life!! I never imagined him helping me with the laundry, cleaning the house (especially the toilet), and being such a great provider to me. Not only around the house but this past wrestling season he has really stepped up and came with me to nearly almost every wrestling match even if he didn't want to and recorded the matches for my mom, which really helped her out. He is just such a willing and helpful person and I couldn't be any happier!! He's my best friend and I love him with all my heart!! So Riley please forgive me and I hope you know everything you mean to me!!!

Tears of joy and sorrow

This will be far the hardest post for me to write about so far. It is with much joy and anticipation I let you all know we have a 2x State Champion Wrestler in the family!!! We couldn't be more proud of Kendall and all the hard work he has put in to wrestling the past four years!! He's truly an amazing kid and deserves every bit of this accomplishment. I love you k-dog and have truly enjoyed every moment you have given us on and off the mat!!! Now comes the hardest part our little toey wrestled his butt off and just came short of placing at state this year. This is so hard for me to watch because he wrestled so hard and deserved something for it. He has worked so hard this year and I can say he has improved a great deal this year. He still has two more years to get what every wrestler wants and I know he has the determination to get there. I just can't believe I watched Kendall's last high school match and it couldn't have ended any better!!! I am just so glad I still have two more years with connor!! You two our my little studs, love ya!!!

Every once in awhile...

So I decided if I get one post in a month I am doing good. I can't believe it is already February. This month is packed full of anticipation with the conclusion of wrestling soon approaching. Kendall and Connor have both done an unbelievable job this year and we couldn't be more proud of them!!! This weekend we will be going to Richfield to watch them compete in Divisionals. They must place in the top 8 in their weight to make it to State the following weekend. We have high hopes they both make it and they both stay healthy. I will keep you updated on how they finish!!! Cross your fingers please... I will post the results Sunday!

Merry Christmas and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I finally had some time and decided it would be nice to update our blog...(I know, I know I'm not the best at this.) First of all let me tell you we made it through our first Christmas and I must admit it was VERY fun!!! Riley kept asking me decorate the house but when the time came he was quite the helper...NOT. It was very different, but fun decorating my own Christmas Tree! Here it is!!


All decorated!!!



Christmas morning!!

I must admit the pictures don't do the tree justice...I actually love it so much it's still up!!!
Also this holiday season we went to temple square with some of my family and had a really good time! We rode the TRAX up to salt lake, ate dinner at a restaurant at the Gateway Mall and then headed to the temple lights!! We had a really fun time minus the cold weather but all in all it was fun!!





My favorite Pic!!!


My Mom and brothers(My dad had to work, we really missed him)



Jordy Poo!!! We brought her along with us because Clay and Mindi were out of town.

Last of all we had our annual New Year's Party which was alot of fun!! 2008 was a great year for us and I hope 2009 will bring us many more blessings!!! I wish all of you the best for this upcoming year and hope you all enjoyed the holidays!!

Catch-up!





So, I have decided to give a little catch up at where we are in our lives since we have been married!!! Riley and I have been married six months now and I can't even believe how fast time has flown by!! These have been the greatest six months and I can't thank him enough for being such a WONDERFUL husband!!!

We bought a house in Coalville up Chalk Creek and remodeled the entire house!!! It was quite the project but we got it done four days before the wedding so all is good!! I will post pictures when I take some (haven't quite had the time)! After we got married I also started a new job!! It was totally different than what I had done before so it took me some time to get the hang of it, but it has come along way. I work at Park City Orthodontics and really enjoy it!! It has really nice hours and I love the girls I work with! Alot changed when we got married but we are getting the hang of everything now!
This summer our family was blessed with the new arrival of our niece Kambryn Lee Stuart!!! She is so much fun and I can't believe she is already three months old!!!
She has been so much fun for there family and is a really good baby! Jordyn has been an amazing BIG sister ( we were all a little nervous how she would handle the change) and I couldn't be more proud of her! Congratulations Stuart Family!!! We love you guys!

Speaking of Jordyn, Mindi enrolled her in dance lessons this summer and it was so much fun to go and watch her perform!! She was so cute up there and did an amazing job!!! She is such a funny little girl and you can never tell what she will do so each performance brought something new and exciting!!!

Riley and I can't get enough of this girl and love to have her stay at our house and come visit us. The scary thing is she and Riley act just alike so it can get interesting sometimes!!! We love you Jordy Poo!!

Since August Riley has once again started coaching high school football!! What a joy this brings to our house including: washing two pairs of pants each week and ironing them so they are perfect or he won't wear them; washing two coaching shirts each week, Sunday night meetings until who knows when, Thursday's bring JV and Freshmen games, Friday night's bring the Varsity and every other night practice!!! I didn't see him very much but I know he enjoys it so much I wouldn't have it any other way. They have done really well this season and I am proud of all the hard work and dedication he has to the program. They are playing in the State Championship Finals this weekend (for the second year in a row!!!) and I hope they beat the Templars!! So since Riley has been so busy with football I have decided to go with my mom and dad to all of my brother's football games since it was his senior year!!! I couldn't have been more proud of him this year for stepping up and being such a great example to his team mates!!! He did an awesome job and I was sad to see them get beat out in the first round of the playoffs!!! My other brother is a sophomore so I still have two more years to watch him play which helps me get through seeing the other one finish. Love you Kendall and Connor!!


That is all our lives consist of right now and in a couple of weeks we begin watching my brothers WRESTLE, I can't even wait!!
