Well, it has been almost a year since I last updated this blog. In the past year there have been many exciting things going on in our home. Justin and I went on the trip of a lifetime (can't wait to go again! haha!) on a Mediterranean cruise. If you'd like to check out the pictures and follow our trip go to our family blog:

We also got a cute little puppy named Marleau (pronounced Marlo, but it's French, so it is spelled a little differently. He's named after one of the San Jose Sharks--our favorite NHL team--players). He is a yellow lab and is growing rapidly. He graduated puppy school, but some days you would never have guessed he even went to puppy school, let alone graduated. He keeps us on our toes. I haven't posted pictures of him yet on the other blog yet, but I will get on that one day.
Justin was hired as a full-time Chevron employee (he works in the same department, but he's now an actual employee instead of a contractor). I am extremely proud of him for all the hard work he puts in there. Best part is, he really likes what he does.
Justin is still playing hockey and will try soccer again with me this season. He just had a hockey tournament in Park City last weekend (Pictures to come). THEY WON!!!! Champions of the Muddy Park Tourney 2014! I've been playing indoor soccer and will be finishing up my first outdoor soccer session next week. It has been lots of fun. I have signed up for the Yellowstone half which is next months...YIKES!!! and for the Morgan half in July. I need to get better at my training. Any motivational or training tips would be appreciated!
The reason for this update is mostly because I have made it a goal this year to not repeat a recipe at dinner. I have gone four months so far. Take into account that Justin and I have really busy schedules, so we do eat out a lot, but I have done well so far in not repeating (which is something I do often...I get in ruts and we wind up eating the same thing over and over). I have had requests for the recipes that I have used up to this point, and I have decided to do better at updating the recipe portion of this blog in order to accommodate those requests. I'm only going to post the ones that we would eat again, we have come across several that are not what we would consider "keepers." If you try any of them, or another version of these that you like better, please comment any changes that you would recommend. If you have other recipes you'd like to share with everyone, post a comment or email it to me and I will post it to the blog. Have fun and enjoy eating!
*Disclaimer: Justin has clarified my goal for me. He said that I can't repeat a recipe unless he, as my husband, specifically requests a certain recipe to be made again, or he makes it himself.
