Oops


So I think I am a pretty good driver. For some reason on this day I backed out of a carport way to hastily and BAM! There it was. A big metal pole smashed into the side of our 2007 Honda Fit. Accidents happen right? I've never seen Hayden so quiet. That's what insurance is for!!

Our Besties Had Twins!!!


Our best friends Shelli and Mike had twins some weeks ago! They are two precious beautiful girls named Karsyn and Jocelyn. Mike and Shelli haven't even been married a year yet but they knew what they wanted and went for it...although it was a BIG surprise to everyone when they found out they were having twins!!! So much fun!!!

HAPPY HEART DAY!



Oh Valentines Day! What a silly but fun Holiday. Hayden and I started our day at the gym and then went to the temple. I made one of Haydens favorite dinners(it's hard to find places to eat out at when you're a vegan!) and we watched a movie. Then Hayden gave me a much needed full body massage and a heart-felt letter. It was so nice to be together and not have work or school! Bye bye chocolate!

Selling With The Enemy


Over the Summer Hayden was employed by Platinum Protection Security Systems. Now back in Provo he has gotten a job with the rival company...APX Alarms. Haha I think it is funny and ironic. APX is a good company and has been around a long time. Hayden is a sales rep for them doing inbound sales. Basically he tries to sell people over the phone on getting a security system. He just finished his week of training on Friday so we will see how it goes! Hayden of course excels in everything he does.

THE CHINA STUDY



SO this semester for one the health classes I am taking I had to read a book related to health issues. My teacher recommended a book called The China Study. My grandma and mom and others have read this book as well. The book is basically about how bad animal and dairy products are for you and how society is completely confused about health. It is backed by tins and tons of research and studies. Well it had a BIG impact on me and so....Hayden and I are vegans. Yes, it is true. We have been for over 3 weeks now!! It has not been hard AT ALL and we feel soooo great! There are tons and tons of great vegan recipes. Basically you eat what is in your house, so I don't buy anything with any animal or dairy products in them, so we don't eat them! It's simple. The pictures above are of course of us in our pre-vegan days. :)

OuR cUtE lItTlE HoMe!!



Here are two pics from our new little apartment. We love it! And we know it may not look like much, but you didn't see it before we decorated! We live in the basement of a little old ghetto white house. It is small and simple and works perfect for us(the rent is amazing too)! I have to admit Hayden did most of the decorating...he's great with that stuff(as he is with EVERYTHING...my brother thinks he is Batman). In addition to the pictures we also have a desk/computer area, a small bathroom and an even smaller kitchen. :)

BACK TO CALI!



So a few weeks ago Hayden and I went BACK to California to visit the fam. We just couldn't help ourselves! the weather there is beautiful and the company is superb. We had a wonderful time! We went to Santa Monica beach and it was absolutely gorgeous! The weather, the water, the food, everything! We even went on a little boat ride and got up close and personal with some cute dazing sea lions!
