WE BLOG!

We decided to finally start a blog!

We've been married for a little over a year so I thought I would give a recap of our first year together.
Here's a glimpse of what has been happening with us....

After dating for about 6 years (a couple of LDS missions to Mexico and Norway in between) Matthew and I were married on September 3, 2010 in the Provo, Utah LDS Temple. It was a great day!



We went to Cancun for our Honeymoon. We stayed at an all inclusive resort and spent a day at Xcaret.



For the next 8 months, Amy worked at the MTC and attended BYU. Matthew got his first job after graduating from college working with Rhomobile. We lived with the Engebretsens and had a blast!!


We were zebras for Halloween!


We went to Philly for Thanksgiving 2010 to be with Matthew's family.


 We spent Christmas with the Engebretsens and Santa Jim. Don't you love the Norwegian sweaters?!


In May of 2011 we moved to the Bay area so Matthew could continue working for Rhomobile.  In July Rhomobile got bought by Motorola Solutions.  It was pretty exciting.  Amy is finishing her degree online and working part-time at an elementary school. We spend a lot of time exploring the area.



In June, my mom came to visit us.


 In July of 2011 we went on a fun Larson family vacation to Maine. It was beautiful!






Since moving to San Jose, Matthew and I have had a blast!
To name a few of the exciting things we have done...

 We went hiking and camping in Yosemite- AMAZING!!!






 We celebrated our birthdays in June and September.

We went to a SF Giants game!


 We went to Santa Cruz to surf the California waves. Matthew is a natural.


We celebrated our one year anniversary. 

So there you have it! A small recap of what we have been up to. We hope you have enjoyed reading about us.

  1. Veldig koselig å lese om hvordan dere har hatt det det siste året. Og masse fine bilder! Håper du fortsetter å legge ut hvordan det går med dere og hva dere finner på ;-) Og dersom Margrethe og jeg besøker Bay Area så kommer vi nok til å ta kontakt, for det er det stedet i verden jeg har mest lyst å vise henne ;)
