Happy Birthday Grandpa Randall

This was a picture of me and my Grandpa Randall many years ago, maybe 28 0r 29 years to be exact. My Grandpa was a pretty handsome man. Happy 87th birthday Grandpa have a great one, Love the Bangerter's

Just in case you were wondering...

Yes I found my missing phone, well actually Hunter found it in a pile of melting snow in our front yard. Appartently when I was shoveling snow about a month ago, it must of flew out of my pocket. Yeah, I am so glad to have it back..just thought I'd let ya know. (Oh and by the way it works perfectly fine too!)

Happy Anniversary

Well it's been 7 years for me and Brian, it seems like it was yesterday when we met and started dating. We met in 1996 in our BYU ward and I was attracted to his stunning wool plaid slacks, as he was passing the sacrament at church, that drew me to him(he was kinda cute too!) He found out I was checking him out and we started hanging out and had some good times together. We remained friends, and had our weekly tue/thur lunches together on campus. He drove there even though he didn't have classes just to be with me..how sweet. We were also dating other people amongst this, it was great times, just talking and eating. I went on a mission(He dated and waited as he told me..yeah right!) When I got back from my mission we reconnected, started back up where we left off, and knew were meant to be together. Brian thanks for 7 wonderful years, 2 beautiful boys, and here's to many more even better years ahead of us.

2008 in Review

Well I figure I should update my blog, I haven't done it since like... Last year, OK. So I thought I would do a month by month year in review of what us Bangerter's have been up to. LETS BEGIN shall we!

JANUARY
We were still living in Midway, loving it up there with all the beautiful snow, YET, the drive down Provo canyon daily for myself and Brian was getting to be too much. It was time to move closer to our work. We also celebrated our 6Th Wedding Anniversary.

FEBRUARY
We decided to start looking for a place to live and we found a great place in Eagle Mountain. We looked at it on Thursday and were moved in on Saturday, wheew, it was a quick pack up job for us to say the least.


MARCH
It was a very long winter/spring for us yet we got to know our neighbors and enjoyed having fun despite the chilly weather.


APRIL
We had a great Easter at our new home in Eagle Mountain, Uncle Nick came home temporarily from his mission in San Diego, and we got to spend Easter with him. this was one of the first years we didn't venture down to warmer weather in St. George, that's OK we still had fun.


MAY
We had the opportunity to plant our own garden this year, it was so much fun to see the fruits and vegetables grow. The kids had fun taking care of it daily, and watering and picking the vegetables.



JUNE
Jessica Turned 31...Yikes, We had a great summer riding bikes, swimming in the pool, eating Popsicles, and staying cool, it was a great summer.


JULY
My Youngest baby Hunter turned 3, we had a big birthday bash, all my family was there. We had a great time just relaxing, and eating too of course.


AUGUST
Mason started Kindergarten and Hunter started preschool. The boys are doing such a great job academically and socially in their classes.


SEPTEMBER
Soccer season is back, we had such a fun time supporting Mason at his soccer games, he did such a good job, and he is becoming so much more talented, Hunter can't wait until he can play too.


OCTOBER
Mason Turned 6 years old. We had a sports themed party and invited all his friends, we really had a great time.



NOVEMBER
Happy Thanksgiving, it seems like it was just here. We started out our day with the traditional Bangerter family bowling party, we all had a blast.
We then headed over to the Morrow's for dinner and then to the Bangerter's for dessert, it was a great Thanksgiving.


DECEMBER
The holidays have come and gone. We had a very calm and enjoyable Christmas season this year. Everyone was so giving this Christmas season and we had a chance to reflect as a family the true meaning of Christmas.
