chet and i were invited to go on a picnic with a few of his cousins wednesday afternoon. chet is a bit too young to appreciate his cousins, but i had fun! i am lucky to have such nice sister-in-laws. and brother-in-laws. and nieces and nephews too.
these are some of the cute kids that were at the picnic:
matt has been working for his brother's company while we have been home this summer. we are very lucky that he is able to. otherwise, it would have been super hard to find a job for the few weeks that we are back here in calgary. yesterday, at work, he got to cut down an 80ft tree with a chainsaw. he thought that was pretty wicked. such a boy...
next week matt and i will celebrate our 3 year anniversary. it is just crazy to think that we have been married for 3 whole years. i still think of us a young newlyweds, but we aren't really anymore. in rexburg most of our neighbors are just coming up on their 1 year anniversary, so they think we are so much older then them. it makes me laugh. i totally remember thinking that way when we were first married.
the other day matt and i were discussing how we have both changed, in little ways, since we got married, due to the influence of each other. and the first thing matt said that i have taught him is to appreciate a pair of comfy pants. it's sad, but true. :) i looove wearing comfy pants - basketball shorts, scrub bottoms, yoga pants, sweatpants of all shapes. anything but jeans. i'll even take a comfy skirt over jeans. matt used to think jeans were just as nice as comfy pants, but he was wrong. and now, thanks to me, he realizes that!
