Sickening Love

Highlight of our St. George weekend get-away:

Devin buying a fake mustache at the Scipio gas station followed by looking and *acting* like a creeper the rest of the drive.
{did I mention how pleased he was of himself???}

I love him so much,
it sometimes makes me wanna puke.

Meet Audrey Beatrice Goodsell.

My sisters family has a tradition of giving their children middle names of inspiring characters in literature. Their son, Joseph Atticus, was named after Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird, who saw good in all people and showed compassion to all.

Audrey Beatrice is named after Italian poet Dante Alighieri's character, as they hope she will share with this character an ability to lift those around her and make them want to become better people.

Isn't that beautiful?

I am so happy to have this new, sweet soul in my life.

Congratulations to the Goodsell family,
you are truly making the world a more hopeful place.

Happy V-Day

Two-day celebration.
Cheesecake factory.
Twinner striped birthday-shirts.
Sleepover in Salt Lake.
New running shoes.
Dinner with all my loved ones.
Shameless laughing at Will Ferrel Movies.
Sentimental pictures from babies.
Cupcakes made just right (more frosting than cupcake).

Happy birthday.

Tonight Devin and I saw two birds flying around WalMart,
eating garbage off the floor.

I could not even control myself,
jumping up and down screaming in excitement.

As if I didn't already think WalMart was the trashiest place ever...



Thank you for always outdoing yourself WalMart, thank you!

Causes to Celebrate

We celebrated our two month anniversary last week.
Although it is not a very monumental mark, we like to find any reason to have a special celebration to ease the sadness of winter semester.

In the last two months we have:

started our first tradition: 10-dollar-date-nights

watched 2 seasons of Flight of the Concords, 2 seasons of 30Rock, and 1 season of Lost
through which we discovered that cuddling while we veg after a long day apart is...magical

taught Dev the differences between lite, regular, and super

learned that he is a responsible, homework doing student and I am...not

shared our first Christmas

each grown some *love* handles

been told I was beautiful, the "best wife ever", and loved 456 times *each*

fought about the toilet seat lid being put down

learned that girls are emotionally crazy

played hide-and-go-seek twice
*before we ran out of places to hide*

learned that he is the more adoring, selfless, thoughtful, sweetest, sexiest hubby.
ever.

It's been the best two months of my life,
which seems a great cause for celebration to me.

Dear Friends,

I got to spend Christmas morning, have my new years kiss, and enjoy every minute of my Christmas vacation with my best friend.

I hope your Christmas was just as overwhelmingly happy.


Love,

The Hansens
