Valentine's Day

So I'm way behind on my blogging so I'm going back to recap the latest happenings in the Pulham Family.
These are the beautiful flowers my sweet husband bought me for Valentine's Day. He disappeared that morning and came back with flowers for me and a giant teddy and rose for Ryann. That night he took his two girls to a movie and then to dinner at Tepanyaki. It was a lot of fun, especially watching Ryann's reaction to all the cooking. The chef that cooked our food kept teasing her and making her laugh, it was hilarious. Then at the end of the meal Ry tapped our waiter on the shoulder and asked him "how much is it to buy these sticks" (chopsticks) when he told her they were free to take she said "wow that's convenient!" We couldn't quit laughing!
Thanks hunny for being so sweet to your girls!

The Wedding!

First kiss as husband and wife.

Lindsay recently finished editing some of the photos from the wedding so I'm backtracking a bit to post some of those. She did an AMAZING job and we are very happy with how they turned out.
The wedding itself was a beautiful day. A little stressful at first because I was worried about the barbecued beef (of course I would be worried about the food I was making!) but it all turned out. We got the pictures taken which took much longer than Ty wanted it too, needless to say, he and Ryann were sick of smiling for the camera after a few hours :) Bishop Carter gave some great words of advice before the ceremony. The thing I remember the most and will try to always remember and implement is to remember that your spouse was raised differently so if they have different views or do things differently than you, just be accepting and don't judge. I think this is something good to always live by. So thanks to all my family and new in-laws for all that you did to make it a memorable day for the new little Pulham family.

Married Life

Well I don't have any pictures to post of the blessed event yet because Lindsay is still in the process of editing them, but I'm very excited to see how they turn out.
Today is Ty, Ryann, and my one week anniversary of being a family and things have been absolutely wonderful. I'm convinced more and more everyday through all the little things Ty does, that I have the greatest husband ever. Heavenly Father completely knew what he was doing when he put Ty in my path. And little Ry is adjusting very well. It's still different for me getting used to being called mommy all the time but I love it. Her and I have a very special relationship that I wouldn't trade for anything. So to all of you that told me marriage was worth all the hard work, when I was too scared to ever give marriage a chance, well you were all right.

Just a few engagement photos

Temple Endowments

Two weeks ago I got the amazing opportunity to attend the temple and receive my endowments. It was a long hard road getting there but completely worth it. It's too difficult to put into words the feelings and wonderful experience it was so I'm not even going to try, but I'm very grateful for temples and the fact that I am now able to attend whenever I want.
I went through the Mt. Timpanogas temple on January 15. Mandi and Glenn, mom, Bruce and Lori, Tawnya and Landon and of course my sweetheart Ty. I was very grateful to be able to share this experience with him. It made me realize how much I love and appreciate him.
Last night we went to ward temple night so I attended for a second time, and then dinner afterwards. It was SO much fun. Ty and I always have a good time together, but I realized on our way home how few dates we've actually been on with just the two of us, and how much fun they are. He had me laughing hysterically all night! I'm a lucky lucky girl!

Funny Quotes

I've made it a note to try and keep a journal of all the funny things Ryann says because she's hilarious! I haven't gotten the notebook yet to start writing them down, so I'm sharing this with everyone because it's funny and then I have it written somewhere so I don't forget.
The three of us were watching Iron Chef America the other night and Ryann was so intrigued by it all and kept saying that we should go visit that place so we could watch them make the food. Then out of nowhere she said " I hope they make kids meals though because I don't know if I would like the food very much." Ty and I were laughing so hard.

New Year's Resolution

So I have made a new year's resolution to keep up with my blog and check me out, it's not even the new year and I've done three posts already! WOOHOO!! And now that I have something to blog about and a camera to take pics to post, it will actually be worth it.

So as a quick catch up I am now engaged to Tyree Pulham after dating for six months. We're planning a February wedding and Ty, myself and his 4-year old daughter, Ryann, are all very excited.

Ty and I met back in July when my mom hired him to paint her new house in Payson. My mom gave him my number to discuss the colors of paint, but he used it after the job was done to ask me out, which I of course was completely excited about. I even did my excited little dance which Mandi can vouch to. We went fishing on our first date and he made tinfoil dinners which burned so we ended up eating at Wingers. He says he was embarrassed about burning the dinner, but I thought it was adorable. Anyway, it turned out okay obviously cause I said yes to his proposal.

Lots of exciting stuff for the new year!!
