Relocation

Hello, Everyone!
I love having a blog. I get obsessed with the "stats" page that tells me how many views I've had. I love when people are interested in our newlywed lives.

There are some changes happening in our lives! First, we have our own website! It's lynesinlove.com so you should go...the main reason being this is where my blog will be from now on. It will also have a section with recipes that I love, and Andy has his own "blog" section. And hopefully a craft section! We hope you like it.
The second change is our big move happening in a couple of weeks. Check out the whole story on my latest blog post from our new website!

I hope you still follow me!

We are the CHAMPIONS!!

I'm improving! 

It turns out it doesn't take that long to post on the blog when I do it more often than once a month! 

We've had such a great week (or however long it's been)! 

We've had many highlights, but the first one was so EPIC! For a few semesters now, Andy and I have been part of several intramural volleyball teams. It's so much fun, and sadly it's the highlight of our week. Towards the end of the season, every team enters the "tournament" which is single elimination, and EVERY TIME we get SO close to winning the entire league, but have never succeeded. 

UNTIL NOW! We started a team this semester of us and our close friends (who just-so-happen to be married, too-married teams are the best). We were Dumbledore's Army. It was so much fun, and what made it even better was the fact that we made it all the way to the championship game, and WON!

Did I mention we get super rad shirts? It felt so great because we beat out two undefeated teams to win. What sweet victory. 

Okay, so as I'm sure most of you know, I have a SERIOUS weakness for baked goods. And when I'm craving something sweet, it's literally ALL I can think about! So one night when I was SERIOUSLY craving brownies, I decided to get creative.  Let's be serious, just plain brownies are boring. 

I found the most amazing looking recipe online for Brownie stuffed cookies....are you kidding me?! Sign me up! They were HUGE but oh so delicious! 

Of course they filled my sugar void. I mean how could they not?! Look at them! 

A couple of weeks ago, we had a wonderful friend get married in California, and they were having their reception in Utah this passed weekend. It was a great opportunity to go visit and have a mini-vacay! Traveling is so hard with Jack, but a couple in our complex offered to watch him for the weekend. So generous, because kennels can get so expensive! 

Jack is like our child, so I had a seriously hard time leaving him. He was in the best hands, though. They are so wonderful! And he got to spend the whole weekend with his girlfriend, Belle! They are in love, which is perfect because they look almost exactly alike!

  

See?! They sent me this picture Saturday morning. 

Jack has NON-STOP energy, so apparently they played until Belle was so tired she needed to nap, and then Jack would just watch her sleep until she was ready to play again.

Crazy animal.

While we were in Utah, we went to Andy's most favorite restaurant (besides Buffalo Wild Wings), which happens to be a really sketchy Mexican restaurant. But you do drastic things for love. 

Andy LOVES their Sopes! I just get a steak quesadilla, which is actually pretty good! 

 ....in heaven.

And just as a side note, we went to DI and I found this couch. 

Is this not the most amazing vintage couch ever?! I loved it. 

That's the life of Lynes as of late! 

Thank you to everyone who has voted for our picture on Facebook! It means so much to us! And there is still time to vote! Just go to https://www.facebook.com/taraphotographics , "like" her page, and then like our picture! It goes until Saturday so we still have time to win! It would mean the world to us!
