There are so many people Blake and I miss from Utah. We especially miss our family, along with our many friends out there. We miss you all. Love, Blake and Dani
Here are Blake and I with our downstairs neighbors, Justin and Kitara. Almost every day when Blake and I would get home, we'd knock on their door and spend some time with them. On our last night living above J&K, Blake and I had "one last romp." Since we disturbed them so many times in the 16 months we lived above them, we had to finish off with one last night of stomping and jumping. It was a moment never to be forgotten... but J&K never complained about our noise. They were awesome downstair neighbors. We really miss living so close to very close friends.
Here is a great picture of Devonee, Heather, Nitti, me, and Nada. Dev, Heath, Nitti, and I lived together the year before Blake and I got married. We had the perfect apartment, with 2 early-birds (Dev and Heath) and 2 late-risers (Me and Nitti). We balanced each other very well. Then, who doesn't love Nada. She and Darren lived a block from Blake and I. We watched hockey together.
Our 3 oldest boy nephews. Love them. Miss them. Kaden, Preston, and Bryson, all with their own type of "glasses" on in the back of our Jeep. What studs. I believe I have the cutest neices and nephews in the world. Hands down. No competition.
Here I am in front of Y Mountain. I really miss BYU. I'll always cherish the time I had there. It's so beatufiul with the mountains towering over the campus.
Blake's favorite dog, next to Cozmo, is DAPHANIE. She's such a sweetheart, and she LOVES Blake!
Here are our downstairs-and-to-the-right neighbors, Britt Gillesp Cro, and Tia-Tia. Then, behind us is Thomas and in front is Preston. We loved living in that little one bedroom apartment! Brittany got me addicted to Gilmore Girls.
Momma and Papa Haines on my graduation day. It was so awesome to have them there.
Two more of our favorite neighbors, John and Annie Erickson. Annie and I visit taught together. They are so awesome. One night we played this game that involves an enormous mat, along with action figures that look like gargoyles and other scary creatures. It rocked.
Also, Thomas has spent the night many times with me and Blake. One night, he and Blake went rollerblading. Thomas had a little fall and came back green in the face. We brought him to the Emergency room that night and he had sure enough broken his arm. He's a trooper.
Ah, two more awesome neighbors. Edda and Rex lived one story up from us, about 6 apartments down. We spent several nights playing game box, going camping, and watching "24" with these two. Good times.
about dressing up for Halloween... Actually, he hated the idea at first. We ordered his costume a size too small and tried it on him. He squirmed and rolled and shook himself trying to get it off. So, Mom helped me do some adjustments, adding new elastic with much more room for Cozmo to feel comfortable. Blake and I have let him wear it a few times since then so he gets the feel of it. Tonight is the Ward Trunk-or-Treat, so Cozmo will get to parade around as a HOT DOGGY!
