Welcome to my new life!!!!

Holy flipping cow!!! Man, I have totally been a blogging flake!!! I don't know what happened to me!! Oh wait..............yes I do......I got married and all the fun things that come along with it!! I have been so dang busy with other things that blogging just kinda hit a low point on my priority list!! But don't think for one second that I didn't think about it it!! I thought about blogging every single day! I just haven't had the internet so that made things a little difficult! :( But America, WE GOT THE INTERNET!!! (Or should I say we are bumming off my in laws who live 2 houses down? Either way we are HAPPY!! ) So I will be now updating my blog on a more regular basis! If you have stopped following my blog............ I am sad, please come back!! I want to share with you the newest things in my life!! Holy cow, don't wet yourselves cause it's a blast!!! But hang in there cause this probably will be a long post!

First and foremost, I have a new name..........Jordan Ryann MUSGRAVE!!!! Yep, I finally married my sweet missionary, Carter Musgrave on March 7th in the Salt Lake Temple! It was pretty freezing that day, but honestly I can't complain cause it was supposed to be a blizzard that day, but it wasn't, only bitter cold!! Somehow our photographer managed to make the pictures look like we weren't freezing our buns off. We got some fun pictures, but I can't get them on my dang lap-top yet!! Please stay tuned..........................

Carter and I bought his great grandma's house in West Weber which is just 2 doors down from his mom and dad's house. Anyone and Everyone that I tell that two asks me how that is and hints that it must be terrible. Well relax people!!!! I have absolutley loved every second of it!!! It's been such a blessing to have them close by and they are wonderful in every way!!

Before we were married, My dad pretty much remodeled the entire house for us!! YEAH.......I know, he ROCKS!!!! He had his crew come in and pain the entire thing! Also, we were please to find that under all of the grandma carpet (that I personally was not a big fan of) was beautiful hard wood floors. So we pulled up all the carpet and refinished the flooring, not to brag, but it looks GOOD!!! We also layed tile in the kitchen and painted the cupboards. It's like we are living in a brand new house, it's wonderful!! I completely 100% have my good old dad to thank for it. (Me and Carter started painting one tiny bedroom and just the prep work on one wall took us about 5 hours, so we were dreading how long it was gonna take us to do the entire house!!) Bata bing Bata bang, his crew was in and out in about 10 days and WALLA..................We have the cutest little house!! We are seriously loving it!!!

Jord, I have wondered how you are doing with your new marriage! I bet you make such a fun wife!
Living close to family is nice. We also bum internet from my parents and it's awesome. Without them we would feel like we lived in the dark ages...dial-up!
Anyway, I'm glad we get you back in the blogging world...if only I can keep up with it all now! :)

Marriage only gets better too! I miss living by my parents, and can;t wait to build our house next to them once Trace graduates, so I totally understand.

I'm glad things are so well for you! Good luck with everything :-)
