,,: The Lyman Chronologues (I don't care if that's not a real word, I like the sound of it!)

Welcome to Saturday everyone! And now for:
The Lyman Chronologues

*2005*
-June: Kristoffer and Samantha are matched on E-Harmony.com (thanks to her dad, by the way!)
-August: Kristoffer breaks up with his present girlfriend in Utah
-November: Samantha breaks up with her present boyfriend in New York
-December: We each spend our last Christmas as young, single bums.

*2006*
-February: Kristoffer flies to New York to meet Samantha on the 17th (after he sent her a HUGE bouquet of flowers for Valentines Day at the hospital that earned her the stink eye from some jealously unhappy co-worker wives)
-March: Samantha flies to Salt Lake for Spring Break and shows off her spectacular skiing skills to Kristoffer. This little escapade resulted in a fashionable bright red windburn to the face, complete with the snow white raccoon eyes from the goggles for Samantha.
-April: Kristoffer moves to New York. A trip completed in an eye widening 2 days. Love crazy fool!
-May: Kristoffer and Samantha fly to Salt Lake (it was an expensive year, can you tell?) for his graduation from U of U. A nervous Kristoffer also takes a suspecting Samantha to the top of the highest peak at Snowbird, to offer her a sparkly piece of frosting, and a lifetime of love :)
-August: Kristoffer and Samantha are married in Cortland on the 17th (6 months to the day we met in person for the first time!), and depart on a super awesome honeymoon on a cruise to the Bahamas!
-September: Samantha starts her last (ridiculous) year of RN school.

*2007*
-March: Kris and I go to Las Vegas for Spring Break! THAT was an experience, we ended up staying at a friends house, and witnessed the final days leading up to their divorce! Yuck! Then we moved all her stuff out of the house! Wow!
-May: Kris moves out to Las Vegas to start his new job, leaving his new wife all alone for 6 whole weeks! AHH! And, Samantha moves into her parents house, and packs up their apartment.
-July: We pack up the truck and haul one claustrophobic wife, an antsy kitty cat, and our entire life to Sin City. Wait, that sounds bad. We move to a wonderful adventure filled city. :)
-August: Kristoffer and Samantha are sealed in the Las Vegas Temple, forever.
-December: Samantha smells something fishy. . . and it makes her puke. Two absorbent sticks later tells us we're going to be parents! And the puking continues.

*2008*
-February: After a meltdown in the shower, Samantha confesses she feels like she's been trapped in a cage, and wants to move! Kristoffer, being wonderful, makes it happen, and we move to the outskirts of the northside, into a HOUSE!
-April: Here come's belly! Aaaand. . . they tell us it's going to be a girl!
-May: A fun trip to New York. I got all the rain I missed living here in Las Vegas, and we showed my family a 3D ultrasound of their very active little granddaughter.
-August: Marin Elise Lyman joins our family, at 7#4 oz and 20 inches long, she is the most beautiful disproportionate screaming pooping bundle of joy either of us could ever love.
December: Samantha and baby Marin are going to take a trip to Georgia to see family!

Ok, picture time!

We bought a bunch of fun soft toys at DI, and put some on her walker thing. It makes it SOOOO much more colorful :)

Say Hi to the camera!

Just a little smile for everyone :)

This is a little random, but it was the rainbowful display of a CD reflection on the wall.

I put some new PJ's on Marin the other night. Super cute! And they are long sleeved, which is good, because she likes to sleep with her arms stretche waaayy out.
