I'm back!!!

My oh my it sure has been awhile! Life just slips by so quickly, before I knew it two months passed since I last entered the world of blogging! It's so fun to see what you're all up to, here's a little update of our life...this girl keeps us smiling all day! I just love these pink boots:)

Below you will see our very own adorable WSU cheerleader!

Nate Carter took some newborn pics of Jovi and they turned amazing! Next 4...

Halloween! Three "littlest" ones of the Anderson fam: Piper-2 weeks, Carter-1 1/2 months, Jovi-2 months. It was so fun being preggo with two of my sista's and now it's even more fun having three little ones!

All 11 wild ones! Roxy the dog escaped from the picture...I love these kids so much!

Jovi's blessing day was October 11th. She looked so beautiful:) It was a super special day...

Daddy and his princess...Jovi just beams when she sees Marc!

Four generations...my Grandma Taylor made my blessing day dress and Jovi wore it too. I love my mom and Grandma so much. They are such incredible examples.

Our last day fishing for the season! Marc took me out sometime in October and I caught an albino fish, I guess that's pretty cool? Marc was so proud of me. He had never caught an albino but he went out again with a friend and caught one so I was glad...:)

Jovi loves bathtime, and her handsome dad:)

Latest and Greatest

Here's an update of the latest and greatest of miss Jovi. She sure is a precious little peanut! It's amazing how much fun a newborn can be! She's already one month old and up to 9 lbs! (According to the produce scale at Smith's:) Every day is an adventure with her and we love every minute of it!

Jovi loves chillin' with her dad:) Marc is convinced we'll have all girls and he's just fine with it! He loves his princess so much, it's so awesome to see him as a dad...isn't he handsome?

Jovi, Grandma, and cousin Carter. This was Jovi and Carter's first time meeting here on earth. He was born just two weeks after her and is so adorable! He weighed exactly one pound less, it's amazing how much bigger she looks! We can't wait to meet the next cousin in just a couple weeks!

I love this picture! Jovi's making a cute little smiling smirk:) This picture was taken last week when she was one month old and the next picture was taken at about 1 1/2 weeks old, she's grown so much!

For Jovi's one week birthday we celebrated by taking her on her first walk around the cemetary! We've been on many, many walks since and she loves 'em!

Graduation!!! Officially...

Well, I'm officially Weber State Alumni and it feels WONDERFUL!!! I graduated May 1st (crazy how time flies) and it was such a blast! I've been 'finished' with school since December so this was just the celebration part. I feel so fortunate when I reflect on my past 4 1/2 years in college. I have had some of the greatest times of my life throughout my college years! My college days started out with Kasie Carlos...Kasie and I carpooled every day and had every class together for the first two years of college...those were some awesome days! I wish I had some pics on my computer from our first years but unfortunately those were still my 'old fashioned' days when I actually developed all my pictures...I need a scanner for those ones...Once we 'parted' and decided on different majors I met some of my best friends I have now and some of the most influential people in my life. I really loved school, really! I actually miss being in classes and learning. I learned a lot about health promotion and nutrition but I believe I learned more about myself and what is most important in life. I know that I am a better person for all the experiences I've had. I also feel so fortunate to have such an awesome job that I absolutely love.
Dinner at Sonora Grill with Shelli, Jessica, Gordon, Jodi, Tate, and my sweet hubby:) I met Shelli and Jess in my degree and they are some of greatest friends I could ever hope for... Tate graduated from Utah State the next day...congrats!

The man who stayed with me through it all! My last semester of college was probably one of my toughest. I was constantly doing homework and Marc was such a lifesaver in so many ways! I wasn't the most pleasant person to be around and he was so supportive and patient through it all. Marc is one of the biggest reasons I chose the field I did and I couldn't be happier. He always believed in me and is constantly helping me be all I can. Marc made sure I had a special graduation day by making me French Toast for breakfast (my favorite!), praying it would rain (I also LOVE the rain!), giving me beautiful purple flowers, and so many more things:) He really pampered me and made sure I knew he was proud of me...I love you so much!

When I got home from graduation this was a surprise from my wonderful in-laws! Jill was so sweet to come to the graduation and do this for me for the rest of the family that couldn't make it. They say when you get married you marry the whole family, which is so true! I love Marc's family so much, they really are the best in-laws ever!

Rachel and I with our beautiful flowers from our sweet husbands:)

My wonderful family that came to support me, Mom, Kayla, Wyatt, Josh...I have the best family in the whole wide world! They were all so kind to make it a point to congratulate me and make me feel so loved.

Marc's grandparents had 3 graduates on this busy day and they were so supportive to come! I look up to them so much and feel so blessed to be part of their family.

Health Promotion Graduates!!! I'm sure gonna miss seeing all those faces...

Human Performance Graduates!!! I'm also gonna miss seeing these faces...

My good friend Catherine Hall...We met in an aerobics class we had together and discovered we both loved aerobics so much we studied hard and became aerobics instructors ourselves! We've been through some awesome certifications together and I learn so much from her...Catherine is such an awesome girl...if it wasn't for her I don't think I would be teaching classes now which is one of my favorite things in the whole world!

I really wouldn't be here if it wasn't for these two amazing people in my life. My mom and dad instilled in me at a young age the importance of education. I always knew I would graduate from college because I had wonderful parents that lead by example (both Wildcat Alumni) and made it possible for me. I cannot thank them enough for the wonderful gift they have given me. I love you mom and dad!

And the Doctor says...

IT'S A GIRL!!!

Boy or Girl???

Only 41 more hours till we find out if baby Purser is a boy or girl!!!

We've been having a lot of fun lately and I'll be sure to post some pics soon, until then, we are finishing the semester...17 DAYS TILL GRADUATION!!! As many of you know I'm pretty much done with school (other than Marc's classes of course), I just get to go to my graduation now :) I'm super excited!

We loved General Conference and Easter and are thoroughly enjoying this beautiful spring weather, what a wonderful time of the year!

Here's a birthday shout out to my big sis' Natalie, love ya!

not 1 baby...not 2 babies...but 3 babies!!!

That's right! Three babies! Not in me of course...triplets? No way! Two of my sisters are preggo too! I'm in the lead at 15 weeks, Jen is at 12 weeks, and Kayla is at 9 weeks. I'm so excited! This will be grandbabies number 9, 10, and 11...crazy! I think it's way fun being preggo at the same time and it's super cool to know that my little one will have cousins within a month and a half :) I got to see another pic of my baby a couple weeks ago, 3 inches already! I'll find out if it's a boy or girl on April 15th when I'm halfway. I can't wait to find out, then I can really start planning...:)

Marc's sis Kati and daughter Abby -4 - brought this way cute outfit over awhile ago for the baby. Then my mother-in-law brought over this box of diapers. I have the best family in the whole wide world! I really can't imagine marrying into a better family, they are so good to us. We are so blessed to be surrounded by amazing family on both sides, we love you guys!

Who's been in my car?...PART II

Many of you may remember a post about 5 months ago when I got into someone elses car when leaving my internship at HAFB fitness center...well the story continues...I am now working at the Warrior Fitness and Wellness Center at HAFB (internship was a success!), and I love my job! Absolutely love it! I feel so blessed to have a job in my degree. It was worth it to delay my much anticipated graduation to May 1st. Although it feels like I'm already graduated because I'm not digesting homework sun up to sun down...

Back to the story...so I'm now employed at the fitness center and I still park in the same parking lot where I got into someone elses car. For work we (Ashley-my other brain at work) needed to purchase supplies for an event we were hosting and our boss - the fitness director - has the money card to purchase supplies for work. One of the interns happened to be working with me at the time so 4 of us (me, ashley, ellie, and boss) wouldn't be able to take the work truck, we needed one more seat belt. So, my boss volunteers to drive...you guessed it! It was my boss' car!!! The only other 1993 bright blue Pontiac Grand Am that parks in the huge parking lot at the fitness center is my boss' car!!! HA! Unbelievable!

!Bienvenidos Hermana Nava!

Welcome Home Cami!!! One of my very best friends came home from her mission in Chicago on Thursday. It was so good to see her on Sunday! Cami and I have known each other since before we can remember...we went to preschool together, we were each others first enemies in second grade, we rode bikes together, we played jr. jazz bball together, we walked to YW's together, we were doubles partners in tennis, went to college together, and have made a lifetime of wonderful memories. I don't have a scanner so I resorted to taking pics of pics...not the best method for high quality...but they're pics of my bff nonetheless! Here's to you CC!

I seriously can't believe I posted this pic... one of the ugliest of our times!!!

Life as we now know it...

WE'RE HAVING A BABY!!! September 5th is the due date. Here's a pic of the gummi-bear, the biggest circle is the head, the smallest circles are the arms, and the other one is the "nub"...ha! I'm 11 weeks and I have been so wonderfully lucky to have not been sick one little bit!

We're in Colorado visiting Marc's dad. Friday we went skiing, Kelly hasn't hit the slopes in two years, but you would never know! His form is so precise! The conditions were perfect for a wonderful day of fun!This is what Marc does while Kelly and I ooh and ahh and take the pics. As long as he's on a board or ski's he'll never be too old for these tricks! I'm just glad he didn't brake any ribs this time...:)

Valentine's Day was certainly one to remember! We went to the VFW (veterans of foreign wars somethin' somethin') dinner and dance. It was pretty much a nursing home, but a party one at that! Marc and I were the youngest by at least 20 years!

PROOF!!! Marc is actually dancing! That's right, we are on a dance floor doing the sway. I made sure Kelly got a pic of this! Kelly danced with me and Roberta danced with Marc to teach us some groovy moves. We got the two-step down! We had a blast!

These are the beautiful flowers from the most wonderful man in the world! I love Marc so much! He truly is my dream come true. I could've never imagined a better man to be with for eternity. I look forward to every day with him. I am so comforted to know that he'll be such an amazing dad, Happy Valentines Day Sweetheart!
