Sunbeam Time

We have been the sunbeams teachers for a few months now. We LOVE it! We had three sunbeams for a few months, but because of the class changes for the new year we only have one now--Sammy. He is so funny. Funniest kid I have ever met. Adam and I come home from church laughing and trying to remember all of the funny things he says to us. We know all about his family, his dog Benny and cat Sasha and the new movies he sees. This picture is of him and Adam playing with his favorite toys the pig and the dog. He loves hiding them and having us try to find them. The window seal behind them is where he likes to leave two cookies every week, so when we come back to class the next week he eats the two stale cookies in the window seal and has a new bag as well. My favorite thing has to be that he always calls Adam "Sister Graff". hahah "Sister Graff I'm hungry I need a treat" looking right at Adam. Adam has worked hard to teach him the difference but he still gets confused and just calls us both sister Graff. So many funny stories, probably more funny for me and Adam. :)

Soup Kitchen, Ice Skating, Hot Chocolate, Games--Thank You Martin Luther King Day!



We do have friends and we do hang out with them!


Meighan and Jared and their combination pizza. We got this game for Christmas--Love Tawni--called "Dirty Minds" It is SO funny! This is us waiting for the pizza to cook playing this game.


Dan and Amanda with their pizza. Dan is holding the dessert the guys made, it was impressive!



Playing "Match Mate" This game was so funny! Such a couples game...

Two of the four pizzas we made. They were so good!

"The Battle Station"


Sweet tarts, Doritos, Empty bag of bread, can of Country Time Lemonade, half a bottled water with a missing lid...welcome to our computer room or as Adam would call this "His battle station". I went to bed pretty early the other night and Adam was up doing homework until who knows how late I wake up the next day to this! Yikes. I didn't even know we had that much junk in our kitchen let a lone our computer room. I just had to take a picture of this. This is just such an "Adam thing" to do. I love him! He is taking 21 credits! Who does that?! But I am so happy that he is trying to finish school so fast so I won't complain.

Goodbye 2009!

A few things that have happened in 2009:

1. February 21, 2009 Adam and I got engaged
2. May 1, 2009 we were married in the Bountiful Temple
3. We went on an amazing Caribbean cruise for our honeymoon
4. After we came home we both started summer school at the University of Utah
5. Still at the U...no one has gotten kicked out yet! Sorry Adam had to throw that in there! haha
6. We have replaced both of our cars this year. Adam's truck was totalled in an accident--sad. And we sold the Focus, I know about time!
7. We are now Sunbeam teachers in our ward! We teach the 3 and 4 year olds. We love it. They are so much fun and that is birthcontrol in and of itself.
8. We won the gingerbread house making competition against Stu and Sommer Rollins AKA team Rollins
9. The U has requested that we join the honor society, that has never happened to either of us when we were single. I guess being married really does make you a better student.
10. We are experiencing all of the "firsts" of being married. For example this year was out first Thanksgiving married, Christmas and New Years. We still have a few more to go in 2010.
