Six Years and Counting!

Six years ago today, Spence and I were married in the Mesa, Arizona Temple! Time has gone by so quickly! I am a little biased but I think I married the greatest most patient man ever! His mom referred to him as Spencer Wonderful and I couldn't agree more!

Aleknagik Island, Alaska

Here are some pictures from the fishing trip Spencer was lucky enough to go on. I think I mentioned this before, but my mom took my brothers and Spencer to Alaska to go fishing. Spencer had a great, great time! They all flew into Anchorage and then took a plane to a little Island named Aleknagik, Island. It is a private Island exclusively for fishing excursions. They were there for a full week and went fishing all day everyday. They caught various fish, but the only kind they were allowed to bring home was Salmon! It is delicious!

I think Spencer got a little spoiled on this trip because he was fed incredible breakfasts and dinners every day. Breakfasts included things like Sour-dough blueberry pancakes and biscuits and gravy and dinners included things like prime rib, stake, and of course fish.

Spencer said the Island was absolutely beautiful and from the pictures it sure looks like it!

Here is a picture of my mom in action!

Update!

All last week Spencer was in Alaska fishing with my mom and my brothers! He was gone for 8 days! To say the least we were very excited to have him back home! We sure missed him! I will post pics of his trip soon. He brought back quite a bit of Salmon and that's what we had for dinner last Sunday! It was delicious! I didn't think I really liked Salmon, but it sure was good!

Yesterday was an exciting day in little SWBy's life! He started to crawl. I had a feeling this was coming because he has been up on his hands and knees trying to move for about a month now. Of course when I pulled out the video camera he wouldn't crawl, he just cried and fell on his face! I need to buy a baby gate so he doesn't go tumbling down our stairs! He is such a sweet little baby! Bailey loves her little brother and loves to play with him. Sometimes, as I think all older siblings do, she smothers him a bit too much. She is so cute with her little brother and enjoys sharing her toys with him, so long as the sharing is on her terms!



A few weekends ago my "older sister" Cindy, her mom, and her little girl Bailee came for a visit! It was fun to see them and of course we took advantage of the situation and had Cindy color and cut my hair and cut Bailey's hair. (Cindy's Bailee is holding my Bailey while she gets her hair cut!) My Bailey sure likes and enjoys Cindy's Bailee. Can anyone guess where Spencer and I got the name Bailey?

This is so funny! Bailey's new thing is "fixing" her toy car! She found this plastic wrench and turned her car over so she could "repair" it properly!
Bailey loves to sit and be with Spence! She often will play mother to him and have her arm around him.
