i LOVE my husband!

I am the luckiest girl in the world to be Trevor's wife! We have been married 2 months today and they have been the happiest, most fun 2 months of my life. I have just been feeling so grateful for Trevor lately, so I wanted to write down some things I love about him.
He's my best friend
Trevor is SO good to me. I love how he is always trying to find ways to surprise me and he always comes up with the most fun dates.
 I love the faces Trevor pulls. He is always making me laugh and can always make a bad day turn into a good one. I love that we can be nerds together and have so much fun. 
I love it when I come home from work and find things like this laying around my house 
(read this ^ , it's good)
I love how sweet Trevor is with me. He has treated me like a queen from day one. He knows all about "5 minute shoes" and helps me out when I decide to wear them. 
I love how he will randomly start dancing with me. 
 I love how he trusts me with anything. (No... I had never cut hair before)
I love how he loves my family, and I especially love how he is my little brother's idol.
I love how he has little "trevor moments" and rips up a cashier check and we end up having to tape together hundreds of little pieces of paper.
I love how he likes to cook with me, (and sometimes he just does it for me!) 
I love how fun it is to travel with him. He is all about travel treats and he always makes the road trips seem a lot shorter than they really are.
I love how smart Trevor is and how if he puts his mind to something he will accomplish it. I love his strong testimony and that he was such a great missionary. I love how he pays so much attention to me and makes me feel like the most important thing in the world. 
Trevor is just the best. 
I love him so so much and I am so blessed to be sealed to him forever.

Fall Break. AKA honeymoon part 2

On our way!! So excited

San Diego Temple. This was such a fun day. The temple is absolutely gorgeous

So happy that Grandma Satterthwaite and Aunt Robin could come

We're all about Scrabble. We get way competitive. Watch out
DISNEYLAND!!!
All of the Halloween decorations were so awesome


Haunted Mansion: Totally different ride during Halloween, all of the voice automation was different and the decorations were all "Nightmare Before Christmas" themed. Way cool
Splash Mountain: Trev was a little nervous (yes I was on this ride, you just can't see my face)
One of my favorites! ...not so much Trevor's



Pirates of the Caribbean was closed (way bummed) so Trevor had to get his pirate fix
Last ride of the day....... It's a small world!
Best. Food. Ever
I was a little excited
Coronado Beach
Thanks to Grandma Satterthwaite, we got to go on the harbor cruise in seaport village! It was so much fun
This boat was in the movie Pirates of the Caribbean 4

Solana Beach, less than a mile from the resort we stayed at. So pretty


Awards for awkward moments of the trip...

3rd place:
This couple got married at Disneyland. They took their wedding pictures there also. We were right behind them, pretty sure we got in a couple of their pictures.. hopefully they can crop us out

2nd Place:
Trevor's little friend. 
While taking our pictures in front of the harbor, this guy randomly wanted to get his picture taken with Trevor. I felt jipped that he didn't want a picture with me.

1st Place:

Unfortunately we don't have a picture to display of this moment... but to make a long story short we had a little incident at the resort we stayed in. It basically went like this

camping 101

what NOT to do when you go camping:

  • leave your house at 7:45pm
  • get the wrong size of batteries for the only three lanterns that you have
  • forget fire wood
  • bring a broken tent
  • have a dinner that requires a fire to cook (see above)
  • bring the wrong pump for your air mattress (this = no air in your mattress, which = sleeping on the rocks)
In the case that you do happen to encounter all of these problems, don't fret. It makes for a great story!
 the non-fire
our tinfoil dinners on the non-fire 
 Trev contemplating the broken tent..
 determined to make it work
 No tongs for the tinfoil dinner? improvise
 The culprit. You definitely can't have a fire if your lighter is broken.
 Did I mention it was freezing this night? Close to below zero (..or 45 degrees) so we ate in the car with the heater.
Despite all of this, it ended up being the best camping trip ever. I loved it. And we made it out alive.
And look at how gorgeous it was in the morning.

*we may or may not have left at 7:00am and made breakfast at home. I couldn't take another camping issue
