A picture on the wall...

In our tiny apartment here in Midvale I had been feeling as if it were missing something. I couldn't figure out what it was though, I had my husband, my kitchen put together and my bed set. When we received our pictures back from our wedding I knew that is what was missing... Pictures on the wall! I could hardly wait to get nails and make Spencer help make hang them up. I kid you not it was like Christmas Eve when I opened the box of nails and marked up the walls on how I wanted  the pictures hung up.

We don't have very many walls to hang up pictures, but I tried to use my space wisely. It felt so nice to hang up pictures and make our 620 sq. foot apartment feel more like a home. "Home is where you story begins" why not tell a story with pictures on the wall? Not that we have many visitors, but for me, the story I want to tell is the love I feel when I come home from a long day at work and my husband is there. Cheesy, yes I know, but I am a newly wed so it's okay.

Do you want to see? Well of course you do, so let's take a 5 second tour!







See... doesn't that make it seem more like a home? The plain eggshell walls were so, what's the word I'm looking for... ugly. Just having a few pictures hung up has made me one happy girl and it feels wonderful!
I am still working on making things and especially since Christmas is coming. Spencer hates it but I am making sure we have glittery things everywhere and I am putting up decorations, but that's the next blog. Stay tuned for cheap decorations, because what newly wed has money to go buy things for decorating for every holiday?

Go forth and do my friends!

The journey of my new smile...

I felt like blogging about the journey of getting my new smile. Oh boy! It sure has been a long, painful, and exciting process. In May of  2000 I was riding my bike, like a big girl (I was 8) with a bunch of my siblings and cousins, to my grandma's church (which was just down the street from where she lives. Staying on the side of the road as instructed, there was a man hole cover that was not pushed down all the way. Being toward the back of the bike line I didn't notice that it was up about three or so inches. Everyone else had dodged it and went around it. I, going full speed to keep up went straight over it and flipped over my bike handle bar, bike still in hand I landed on my stomach. I got up, a little dizzy and discombobulated got up thinking that was pretty sweet that I survived that epic crash. I didn't know how bad it was until my sister Kelsey started screaming "Kacey! Kacey! You have blood running down your face!" I immediately put my hand to my face a...

Personal Thought: A simple prayer answered

I had an experience a few weeks ago that helped me realize the power of prayer. This is kind of personal (not kind of... it is very personal), but I wanted to share it and maybe someone could benefit from it. For a while I have had abnormal bleeding (for long periods of time), not thinking really anything of it, I ignored it for months actually. At times it would be pretty painful, took some IB Profin, and I ignored it. I was talking to someone who said that with the IUD that I had, that bleeding that bad was not normal. Again, I didn't think anything of it. Spencer and I have been talking about our future family and this came up in conversation. Spencer is not as excited about starting our family this young but I am all over it. I was surprised when he asked me to go get it checked out, because something could be wrong. It took for me to hear him say that to go schedule an appointment. Of course I looked online of what it could possibly be and then I got nervous. I had be...
