We are Doing Fabulous

So we had a loooonnnnnnnggggggggggg Thanksgiving break! Between surgery and being sick Chase and I were quite the pair.  We also lost the place we were going to live so we are moving to my aunts in Draper for a bit!  Someone also stole Chases wallet while I wasn't looking at the hospital...shame on you (whoever you are). But all and all it's not that bad, we are still growing our wonderful baby and Chase is getting better! Thank you to all that sent me a text, it really helped and I appreciate that!  Here are some "fun" pictures! (WARNING: some of these are yucky so if you don't like yucky don't look!!!)

Hallllooowwweeeeeen!

Like I have said before, holidays just seem more fabulous married!  Chase started wrestling the day after Halloween and I must say he is pretty darn good! My parents and I drove the six hours to Wyoming this past weekend to see him and he was so worth the drive ;).  I must say I feel like the luckiest woman alive!  Chase is in North Carolina this weekend with his wonderful parents and is doing great! I on the other hand am stuck home alone for the first time since we've been married and I don't know whether to cry or go to my parents house! I can say that having him gone makes me appreciate his love and company a lot more. I am not sure who reads this thing but for most of you, you know that I am not feeling well right now ;) so basically I am scared of going anywhere alone because if I even smell a weird smell I start gagging or just for no reason at all I start gagging and it's embarrassing if I am not with Chase. haha Some how being with him makes me feel like I am never foolish (not sure if that is good or bad). But Halloween was very fun and we got to carve pumpkins twice! We went to my parents house and ate food and took the kids trick-or-treating.  We were going to dress up but I was to exhausted so we just went as ourselves haha

ps. I just talk to Chase from NC and he has won his first two matches! So text him and wish him luck!

The first snow! Now there is a foot of snow outside!

We were waiting for Sam and Chase just looked so darn Cute, so we had to take a picture!

This was from before we got married but it's so cute!

This was from before we got married too but it's so cute!

OH  man so cute, hard not to share it.

Chase's pumpkin (mine didn't turn out so well haha)

WE love snow!

Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy birthday Chase! and Kyle and Jessica :)

Hello!

So it's been a lllooonnnnggg time since I've wrote on this thing, so sorry! We have had lots of fun things going on though! So we have now been married 4 whole months, it feels like eternity though ;) No but seriously, I cant imagine life without my wonderful husband. Chase had his very first married birthday in September, I must say it was fabulous. We went to dinner and he got presents and he is very spoiled haha We ate Sushi and the place that cooks in front of you! Lets see, what else...Oh! We had Scott come and see us! It was really fun to see him and eat some yummy food! We went up to Sundance and took the ski lift up to the top and walked around for a bit. We also got to go to the temple dedication with him, which was awesome! We love seeing family and wish we could more often! I learned something new about Chase..He is so scared of heights. I was surprised, my manly man husband isn't scared of anything..but heights. I couldn't help but laugh because he was so cute! He asked me "Do you think any of these chairs have broken off and fallen?" My response "Probably, I mean I am sure its not impossible" his response "You are suppose to say no" haha Oh man so funny!

This weekend was General Conference and it was wonderful! Can I just say, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is True Everyone! We love the lord and I don't know where we would be without him!

Below are some pictures of us and what we have been doing!

Yeah my husband lifts weights.

 We went to the driving range for chases birthday, there are no pictures of me actually swinging cause I kept missing the ball...

 This is a picture from my birthday! We went up to Sundance and went for a hike, don't mine me with no makeup, it's my birthday!

 We went to the Manti Pageant!

 Scott and Chase at Sundance

You Go Here, I'll go there, and we'll meet back in Utah

Well everyone, Chase and I experienced our first time apart! Chase got to go on an all exclusive fishing trip with his brothers and I went to Tennessee to see Mom, Wendy, and Jessica.  Chase took me to the airport and as we got closer  I started realizing that he wasn't going to get on that plane with me; suddenly I couldn't breath.  I gave Chase a hug and a kiss and quickly went into the airport before I could realize he was gone. Then kicked in the tears. I called him and just started crying and asking if he was going to come home after the trip haha Once I got to Tennessee I had the most lovely chauffeurs waiting for my arrival (Wendy and Jessica). I must say that I love being with these three ladies (Mom, Wendy, and Jessica) they are the kindest, sweetest, best dang mommies you will ever meet.  I went swimming with Jessica, walking with Wendy, and spent some good time with Mom.  A big event happened while I was there, sad but big, poor Ivy got really sick and had to go to the ER! Soon Wendy found out that she had hand foot and mouth disease and informed her that is was very contagious.  Ivy came home and ate frozen treats  like nobodies business, but next thing you know Kate joined the medicated list, then baby James, then me, then Wendy.  The most impressive thing is that Wendy had it together the whole time, I commend you Wendy.

Then of course I got to spend time with the other Cuthbertsons.  Jessica lives out in the middle of no where, but I actually really liked it.  You pass some beautiful scenery and get to enjoy the car ride with some absolutely beautiful children.  Luckily, Jessica's cute kids didn't get sick so we went out to eat and took a nice long walk over the bridge by the condo (super descriptive I know, I don't know what it is actually called haha) with mom.  But don't for one second think we didn't have an exciting moment... We saw the biggest, hugest, biggest bee hive ever haha  The kids were playing near it and Jessica noticed it, it had 100's of bees on it!! So yes Jessica is the hero of that story :) I saw the fun new houses Mom and Jessica are building (yes they are building them with their own bare hands) I even helped Jessica make a few MAJOR decisions (not really). Jessica was kind enough to take me up to Grandmother and Leroy's and I must say I love them and I love it up there. Grandmother gave us the nicest quilt and it is laying on our bed as we speak! I just want to thank you all for being so kind and loving me like your own family.  Whenever I told someone I was going back to visit my husbands family, everyone always said "Wow, usually you go to your own family" but I feel so welcomed and loved in your family! I can't wait to live by you someday and maybe be neighbors ;) My trip ended to quickly but I was excited to come back home.

Chase had a wonderful time on his trip and I would like to thank you men for keeping him safe and sound.  We recently started school this week and are back to our busy lives. Jessica kept saying "Oh Gabi you are newly married" haha What can I say, I love Chase more than anything in the world and I truly know he is my eternal companion. I appreciate his strength and love for me. He is the best man/husband in the world and he is all mine :)

Fireworks, Family, and a whole lot of food

I must say the 4th of July is my favorite holiday! I love being with family and I love being married for the 4 th of July. The weekend before the 4th we went to the Manti Pageant with my side of the family, it was a lot of fun.  Sam (my brother) decided to answer some question for one of the anti-mormon people standing outside the pageant.  Lets just say I am excited for the day they finally know the truth.  We also got to go to a swimming/BBQ for the new company I work for; we had big juicy steaks and swam all afternoon! I feel like everything is ten times more fun now that I am married, mainly because I have someone to share it with.  We also have exciting news...We got our wedding pictures! I think I almost cried when I opened our mailbox haha Our photographer was amazing, what am I saying our whole wedding was amazing for us! I told Chase that I wish we could go back to our wedding day and just observer how exciting and happy we were haha. We are so happy we could share that time with our family and friends and .

Lets see... Oh I have a funny story about work. So I called this lady letting her know she was now eligible for a loan with our company.  She hung up on me before I could even tell her about it and our accounting person said here I'll call her back. So he called her back and said "Hi this is Jeff, I think we got disconnected." Lady on the phone: No we didn't I hung up on you. Jeff: Now why would you do that? Lady on the phone: Let me show you something..click and she hung up. haha The funniest part is that she called me back this week and got a loan from me hahaha I am really enjoying work but it's hard to be away from my cute husband all day.  Chase is the most kind, loving, wonderful, human being on the face of the earth! Ah! Dating, getting engaged, and getting married in three months has been the happiest time of my life and I am so happy we are StArTiNg OuR eTeRnItY.

Here are some of our favorites of the new wedding picks:

We're married, We're married!

Yes my friends, we're married! We were sealed on May 25, 2012 in the Salt Lake Temple. Our day started early; with makeup, hair, and butterflies.  As we got to the Temple at 10:00, 11:40 couldn't come fast enough; I was ready to marry the man I love.  Our sealer, my great uncle, spoke amazing words! I have never felt the spirit so strong, it truly confirmed to me that Chase is suppose to be my eternal companion.  Our sealer mentioned how happy we looked and that he hoped we wouldn't be translated right there haha.  In the that moment I have never felt more pure and holy, it's like all the crazy from the day before was gone.  I, of course, cried the whole time. It's just I have never felt that close to Heavenly Father and Chase before.  The temple is a beautiful miracle that only can happen through our Heavenly Father, I can't imagine why someone wouldn't want to feel that way.  I am sure anyone who has been through the temple can agree that it's a kind of happen that is so amazing it can't be described.

We left for our honeymoon the very next day at 6:00 am! We on the BIGGEST cruise ship in the world to the Bahamas; I must say I do recommend this! I seriously feel like we are 90 years old because we slept 12+ hours a day.  It was so relaxing not having to go anywhere and just be with Chase all day.  I don't think it would've mattered where we went because we are in that mushy I love you stage, where all I want to do is hold Chase's hand and give him lots of kisses :)  We ate like pigs and I am pretty sure room service now cost people money cause we ordered it so much.  Over all it was the most amazing vacation we've ever been on.

I am sure many of you are wondering what are they doing now? Well let me tell you! The day after we got home I started a new job with a loan processing company and am still going to summer school full time.  I feel like I am a crazy lady trying to be married, work full time, and go to school full time but some how I am doing it. Chase has been a busy little bee as well, he helped run a UVU wrestling camp this week!  I don't think I have ever seen him this exhausted.  Going from being with him every moment of my day to five hours a day (mainly during our sleeping hours) was terrible! But on the bright side I have the best husband in the whole world and he would text me cute mushy things all day :)

Overall our wedding was beautiful! We loved having all of our family come out and having them enjoy this amazing day with us.  (Your thank you cards are coming shortly) We love you all so much and appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedules to help us StArT oUr EtErNiTy.

Here is some cute pictures of us (the rest will be done next week so be prepared for some amazingness)
Also I am officially Mrs. Cuthbertson!

 

Alrighty then, blog instead of Facebook? Sounds good to me! This is for all our family members who don't live in Utah,to keep up on what we have going on! Tonight Chase is at the Provo temple sharing a WONDERFUL night with Kyle and Jen! Jen is receiving her Endowments tonight and we are both so happy for them! So Congrats Jen!  We are getting excited to move into our apartment a week from today (I know half of you just read this wondering if we are going to live together before we get married, don't worry we aren't). I keep thinking, "I hope Chase is a good roommate, cause if he isn't I really can't complain because I chose him."  We have also realized getting our household started is costing a lot of money!! I keep asking Chase, are you sure you wanna do this? haha But of course we both always say yes.  We have a busy time coming up with 2 bridal showers, summer school, moving, Kyle and Jen's wedding, and of course....OUR WEDDING!! We are really excited to see our family coming from out of state and I am getting really excited to meet all the people in Chase's family! I couldn't have asked to marry into a better family than I am. You all are so wonderful and I feel honored to be called a Cuthbertson.  As our marriage gets near I am excited and nervous to step into this new part of our lives. I always ask Chase if he is scared but I haven't heard him say yes yet. I feel like the luckiest girl in the whole world to be marrying my best friend. Chase is more than a girl could ask for! We are both ready to step hand in hand into ThE sTaRt Of OuR eTeRnItY!!
side note: Here is some of our engagements! (just in case you were wondering chase does model in his spare time)
