It's Offiical: Meet Dr. Leila Peterson!!!

Saturday May 23rd 2009, was one of the biggest days of our married life. My beautiful wife is now officially a DOCTOR!!! I am so proud of her. She has spent many sleepless nights and countless hours studying for tests, being on call and preparing for board exams. We both wondered if this day would ever come. What an amazing accomplishment. Dr. Peterson will start residency at St. Marks in July. I love you babe, CONGRATS!

Nick's Birthday





Nick is finally home from Bluff, for good. It's been so nice to have him home. For his birthday our families decided to surprise him. With a made-up story about some primary activity we went to a park to drop off some food. Once at the park I tried to get him out of the car to help me unload but he didn't want to. I couldn't figure out why but then I realized he still had his mullet and he didn't want our whole ward to see it. I finally convinced him and he was completely surprised to see our families hiding under a picnic bench. His mullet was hilarious! I, as always, decided to go overboard and make a 15 layer cake. What I was thinking I don't know but it actually tasted good (didn't look so good but taste is all that matters, right?). All in all, it was a fun birthday. I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful husband who puts up with my crazy ideas and supports me 100%. I don't know what I would do without him! Happy Birthday sweetheart!

Think Spring






I love spring! I love the weather, the flowers, being able to go on bike rides and just the smell! My tulips finally bloomed and I hope if I keep thinking it's spring it will finally stay warm! I love all the fun holidays that come along with spring too! Mother's day this year was so much fun, and I definitely have the best two moms in the world!

The mullet revealed...



Well, it finally happened. Nick cut his beautiful long locks into a mullet. These are the fresh cut pictures straight from Bluff. He told me he's keeping it for a long time. I couldn't help but laugh at the pics, it's so not my clean cut, pretty boy hubby, but he's still sexy as ever (even though he looks like he should be sitting in a double wide, in cut-off jeans spitting sunflower seeds)!!!

Vegas!! Lions, dolphins and sharks, oh, my!


























What could be better! Toph (Nick's little bro) was competing in the WAC golf tournament so we decided to watch him play and take in the sights of Vegas at the same time. Britt even flew in from New York! We tried to fit in everything we could and we had a blast!
