5 Year Anniversary

Last Thursday was our FIVE year anniversary, and this has got to be one of my favorite pictures from that night five years ago.  Every year we've gone somewhere for our anniversary, and this year we kept up with tradition by staying at the JW in Scottsdale. We shopped, relaxed, played tennis, laid by the pool, and ate lots of food.

Other August Happenings

Lip sync karaoke night for Mutual (this much attitude and sass made me maybe never want to have girls ;)
@ FHE with Lia 
We went bowling with the Saagers & Evans, and did a boys vs. girls challenge, and the girls pulled it off in the last frame! Since we won, the boys owed us a homemade meal of our choice.
The definitely delivered! Steak, potatoes, veggies, and they even had pretzel bites for an appetizer :)
Here they are cooking/prepping!
Everyone enjoying the meal!
Cleaning up afterwards
 Walked around the temple for mutual 

Annual slip-n-slide! I got a lot of bruises & sore muscles from this night!

Cabin Trip

We did another trip up the Saager's cabin! We first got all dressed up, and went to the rodeo! I've only been to one before, but they're so fun (the one in Utah was better, but this one was still good :).  The next day we slept in, went for a couple easy hikes in Tonto National Forest, watched a movie, ate lots of food, and just relaxed. 




 Back at the cabin that night :)

A Baby Shower, the Tanner Reunion & Birthdays!

Tyler and I recently went to Utah for one of the shortest trips ever...a whole 48 hours!  We had a Tanner reunion, celebrated Grandma & Grandpa's 80th birthday, and then surprised Lisa for an early 50th birthday party (we were even able to make it for a little bit of Allie's baby shower!).  It was so good to see ALL of Tyler's siblings (together for the first time since Christmas) & other family members.  
 These are the only two pictures I got from the reunion :(

Stoppe by my parents house on our way back from the reunion.

The guests of honor!

 We had these signs up all over the place :)




We all couldn't get enough of Allie's prego belly :)
