On Monday, to celebrate Jared finishing finals, and our anniversary, we took a hike to Fossil Springs near Strawberry, AZ with our good friends Jeff, Melissa, and Madison Dickson. We had such a great time! It was a very pretty Arizona hike and it was fun to swim in the water. Little Madison was such a trooper! 













 Madison was so tired by the end! She fell asleep in the pack.


 We just had our 2nd Anniversary! We have been able to do so many great things together in our 2nd year of marriage.  I am so grateful Jared has been so patient in teaching me all of these fun things to do together because it has become such a huge part of who I am now. It has been very special to share all the things we love together and continually brings us closer. I love my Jared! Here are just some of our favorite highlights, not all of them because that would take f-o-r-e-v-e-r!

I have really updated pictures of Jared and I especially since we are coming up on our 2 year anniversary! So we took our camera out one evening with our tripod and remote. I am very happy with how they turned out! We had a good time trying this out and had some good laughs trying to pose and get the timer just right. I just love my Jared! What a dreamboat...
