the re-awakening.

well. i'm jumping back on the blogging train.

after taking a... few month hiatus. i am back! no new layout, just a new name.

in that few month hiatus ---- i travelled, completed an internship, got some sun, swam some more, got engaged. and got married 6 weeks later!

here is my love.

you kiddin' me????? man, i lucked out. he is the most patient and loving person i know. and i am so lucky he is all mine! seriously the best.

WE are now the ISOMS. 

full.

early in the a.m., we headed up to salt lake for tajia's wedding. it was so fun to see some family that we don't see very often. addy wasn't having the fact that her parents were gone, she cried basically the whole time tim and becky were in the sealing. but, she survived. 

the Varlin Law family. (Varlin, Carla, Carson, Talia, Tana, McGwire, Roman, Sofia).

missing big V, Andrew, and Adam, but he's in Africa. 

after the temple, we drove back down to provo for the Senior Day baseball game. there were quite a few seniors that graduated. and i'll admit, it was a little sad when andrew walked up as he was announced. 

andrew and shar bear.

another day!

many new pictures to come. but as of now, we have a houseful of people. and it's a good houseful at that! tim and becky decided to surprise us and show up at our house on wednesday! none of us had any idea they were coming. there is a big family wedding tomorrow (saturday), andrew's senior day baseball game, and of course mother's day on sunday (involving a phone call with adam in africa!). perfect timing. i was completely surprised when i pulled into my house, saw tim's truck, and went inside to my sister-in-law, becky, tim, and my dearly missed kids! after some tears, i am so happy they are here! 


here's the cuties playing with their papa:

we are in for a crazy day tomorrow. the majority of the law family is in town for my cousin's wedding. i think the steps at the salt lake temple are going to be filled with lots of law's! it will be a cluster that's for sure. we had our own section at the baseball game. i wonder what the people around us were thinking, haha. maybe i don't wanna know... 

i made some homemade cinnamon rolls last week. half wheat flower too, they were pretty tasty! 

not the best picture, but rolls in action!

gorgeous taylor.

for some reason, adding pictures to this thing is not easy. one goes to the left, one to the right. and i can't seem to get two pictures to be right next to each other. maybe i'm not doing it right, but it doesn't work. tips are awesome.

what a great few days it's been. still got lots of ideas blowing through my head, but overall, it's been pretty great i think. 

and loving this sunny weather!
