Sad Day!!

Well I/We NEVER thought that this day would actually come!!! We said Good Bye to that Maverick!

For those of you that didn't know, Spencer has a LOVE for old cars. This was the car he got when he turned 16. It was literally his Baby! It was full of memories and good times!

"After watching the man drive away in my car... I could have cried."- Spencer

p.s. Don't think he had to get rid of it, he got a new toy!! 66 Mustang (pictures will be posted later)

I'm to sexy...

Looking good SPENCER!!! Spencer rode his bike to work this morning and lets just say........ "It was freaken freezing, but it was fun." - Spencer Forsberg

I walked in the bathroom and caught him stretching! I had to take a picture... especially in his beautiful pants! I love you Spencer!!

Also this past weekend was another fun weekend! Friday was Halloween.. which we didn't celebrate as much as I like to. We missed the AWESOME Halloween dinner at my Mom's and didn't hand out candy or dress up. No lie I was a little bummed!!! This is what we did do.....

ANOTHER TRIATHLON!!

We Drove to Casa Grande Friday for a triathlon Saturday morning. We did get to stop and eat in Tucson where a lot of people were dressed up. That was fun. We stayed in a really cool Hotel that night. Not going to lie.. I was a little weirded out when I realized we were the only ones in the ENTIRE hotel. That was a little creepy... plus is was out in the middle of NO WHERE!!! It was nice and after I learned the history of the hotel it became awesome. It was actually where the Giants (the baseball team) stayed while training. It is REALLY old but cool! They have really done a lot to keep it nice and modern.

Then Saturday morning came quick! I had been sick that week with some stomach virus and was recovering but determined to do the tri. I had a great time besides the swim and LOVE the run course!! My time improved a lot from last year which was exciting! It was fun to be able to do it with my SIL Jessica, Bro Justin, BIL Landon, and friend JJ. The next one will be Rocky Point!!!

Just a thought...

So life for us has been great!! We have been busy but we can't complain!!
I LOVE this time of year!!! I love watching the leaves turn, the beautiful weather, and the holidays. You can't beat the weather right now, it has been in the 70's the past couple weeks. I can't believe that it is this time of year again but boy do I love it!! What I really can't believe is halloween is over........which means Thanksgiving is just around the corner and Christmas is just around the block!! I love both of these holidays! It's so fun to get together with family!! Something I also enjoy is making New Year's resolutions. I have been thinking really hard about what I want to focus on next year. I'm not the best at keeping them up the entire year but this year I want to make a couple goals that will be more life changing goals for me. When I was visiting with my visiting teacher she read a quote from the message that really stuck out to me.
"Women of God can never be like women of the world. the world has enough women that are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind.... We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need women of faith." - Margart D. Nadauld (former y/w general pres.)
After visiting with her I really thought, WOW, Marlee you need to become more of a "Women of God." I want to be the person that always thinks of other people before I think of myself instead of thinking of other things I really do need to get done. I am a guilty girl when it comes to following through with A LOT of the nice thoughts that come to my head! Next year I am going to really try hard to serve other people and not just think, "Oh I should call this person, or I should take them dinner, or I need to go by her house." I often think those nice thoughts but only carry out with them half as much as I should. Sorry for rambling on! I do have many other goals I want ot accomplish next year but I will share them when the time gets closer.

You Gotta Love it....

Okay so I had a wonderful weekend!!!! Seriously a wonderful week. I would bore you all if I told you about me week so I'll just give you a long summary of my weekend! It all started when I got off work EARLY!!!! I got off at 2:30.... around 3:00 my BIL and SIL came to stay with us!! I seriously have the best in laws in the entire world! Anyways, that night we stayed up late talking and watched a movie. Around 1 we decided we better go to sleep because Saturday morning we ran the Bisbee Stair Climb. Let me tell you... I LOVE this race!! It is so hard and such a GREAT workout! Last year was my first year doing it. This year My sil Katie, my sis Amanda, her sil Renee, and my Mommy all did it!! We all drove down together that morning.

Spencer and my bil Russ came later with the kids. What troopers and they did a great job cheering us on! Thanks guys! All of us made it under an hour!! I was so proud!!! I actually beat my time from last year, that was exciting. After the stair climb we went and got Pizza. Yes, I was starving!! That afternoon we went to the stake Fall festival and ate tons of cotton candy and snow cones!! We deserved it!!

Then we went up to my parents house and got to see the baby pigs and all the chickens. Then.. That night we had a great time relaxing. Russ and Katie thanks for making it a fun weekend.
It's not over.......
Sunday I got to go with my Parents to see one of my best friends/ cousin that just returned from her mission!!! Yes Ladies and Gents....

It was so good to see her!! She did an amazing job on her talk and boy I am soo-> happy she is home!!

GO D-Backs!

Last weekend Spencer and I went to Phoenix. We had a really REALLY fun time! My favorite was just not having to worry about anything. No hurry to get back home, nothing going on, no plans, etc. It was great. (That doesn't happen around here) Friday night, we went to the Diamondback's game with some of our bestest friends Sammy and Jared. I ran with her at PV and we both got married and our hubby's get a long great and its so fun! It seemed like everytime we were going up to Phoenix they were going to be out of town or Spencer and I had something going on. It was fun to meet for dinner and go to the game. Saturday morning we got up and went to two of our nephews soccer games, sports authority, michael's, and ate lunch at olive garden. We planned to leave around 4 Saturday afternoon, until we stopped by my brother and sister-in-laws house. Our plans changed...... The boys babysat and watched a movie while Stephanie (sis-in-law) and I went shopping. We didn't end up leaving until 9:30 that night. We got to see Spencer's parents before we left which is always a treat (they were out of town). Thanks everyone for making it a fun weekend, we really enjoyed seeing friends and family.

Better Late than EVER....

So Yeah it's late!! Spencer and I celebrated our 2 year being married!! (Sept 16) CRAZY, but very exciting! I can't believe how fast time has gone! It seriously has been the best two years of my life!! Spencer is my best friend! I LOVE YOU BABE!!!
The day of our anniversary we had to work all day then I had a volleyball game in Tucson that night! I didn't get to see him all day! When I got home from Tucson (11pm)I had a really funny/sweet card on my car. Then when I got home Spencer made me dinner (pizza) and had a dozen roses for me! What a guy!!
We decided to celebrate our anniversary that following Saturday. We went to Tucson that morning. We had a BLAST!! Here is a sneak peak of our "anniversary"

We went to the Zoo. HONESTLY we had a really great time!

We packed a picnic and went acorss the street to a park!!

Then we went to costco, triathlon store, mall, and Jordan's baseball game. After we went out to dinner. We have had a very eventful past 2 years! I love BABE!! I look forward to all the memories in the future!

Elder Haymore

So this was an eventful weekend for Spencer and I. It was busy but full of fun. This past week has been a little crazy now that I think about it. I will fill you in with the weekend fun another day. I have to hurry.
Well today was Elder Jared Haymore's talk in sacrament meeting. He is a WONDERFUL job. I was VERY impressed. He will make an amazing missionary! After we all had a fun time eating TONS of food and cookies (I had like 9) at my Parents house. Hope you enjoy some of the many pictures.
Of course we can't have a family function with the Boy's starting a little basketball, football, or baseball game.

Elder Haymore.... Girls I know he is good looking just wait 2 years!!

Part of the Family eating. He had a lot of support from lots of friends and family!!! It was a blast!!

Kids just want to have fun!
What a great group of friends... The ones that have not got married yet or aren't already on missions

Jared will be a great missionary! We are so excited for him! It will be a LOT different around here with out him. Nobody to have come help with yard work, tease the nieces and nephews, and just his fun personality will be missed. It was so cute watching my little brother with Jared to day. He cried the entire sacrament meeting, wanted to eat by him, stand with him, EVERYTHING!! Soak it up I guess. We are excited for him and know he will work hard!!! LOVE you Jared!!
