Nate's Shirt: A Tribute

The other day, as Nate and I were going through our blog, and we noticed an item of similarity in most of our posts: Nate's Shirt. Nate wears this shirt so often because, 1. It's comfortable, 2. It's cool ( as far as temp. otherwise arguable)3. It's a nice fit and 4. He just doesn't see the need to get any more shirts! Hence, there must needs be a tribute to The Shirt.

Above is one of the first dates that Nate took me on in Fall 2007. You have to make a good impression in the beginning of a relationship....therefore, the shirt.

Here we are on another date, still courting...still making the "impression".....the shirt. Must of worked, I look happy! (And I was!)

The right impression was made! Here he is when he took me home to Utah for his family Thanksgiving dinner. In this picture the Shirt serves the purpose of practicality and comfort.

And we move on to the Honeymoon! When eating out on the cruise The Shirt does an excellent job of being more formal than a t-shirt, but still says "casual comfortable."

The Shirt breathes nicely in the hot dessert of Mexico.

And finally...but not to be the last, at his law firm. The Shirt sends a message of power yet subtlety.

Too many Horror stories

Last night I had this dream that we brought home our sweet little baby boy. He was so tiny and small, and Nate and I were so excited! When he started to get all fussy and squirmy, Nate tells me that he's probably hungry and I should feed him. I look down at the little boy and he gives me this full smile of white pearly teeth! "Ahh!! My newborn baby has teeth, and I have to breastfeed him???" I woke up shortly after that, and concluded that I've heard too many horror stories about breastfeeding, and it really can't be all that bad.......right???

Happy Halloween!

Our First Family Picture!
Doesn't he look just like his Father?

Enjoying Hawaii

Nate and I took a little excursion one Sunday and found ourselves on a beautiful cliff over looking the ocean. Another reminder to us of how lucky we are to be here.

Bean Soup

Mom and Dad just sent us a crockpot from the pile of wedding gifts left in San Diego. All I can say is that it's become our new favorite toy, and visions of crock pot meals dance in our heads at night. Nate comes to me one day with the comment "We should soak beans, doesn't that sound like fun?" Soaking beans? SURE! Add a new crock pot in that equation and you've got a party! And that's exactly what it turned out to be.
