Its Been a While

So I haven't disappeared yet, but I have been really busy lately. Hence the no posts. Well since the last time I have posted, we have opened up a corporate landscaping company called SureCut. Scott has dreamed about being a business owner and now he has finally started. He is now landscaping and maintaining about 6 apartment complexes with more to come.

We also got free tickets to an Atlanta Thrashers hockey game, that we went to a couple weeks ago and had a blast. I got to meet some people Scott worked with and we were able to go out to dinner with them.








We also went to the Columbia South Carolina temple, and were able to have a fun trip. Sadly, I forgot I had my camera until we were headed home and this is the only picture I got,



I thought it was pretty funny, we had to pull over on the side of the road. The boys just couldn't hang on.

And we also had another baptism in our little branch, Josh, and he asked Scott to baptize him. It was pretty neat. He walked into the church building one Wednesday night and wanted to find somewhere to go to church. Its a pretty neat conversion story. So here is a picture of our branch sisters, Josh and Scott.



And then there was an amazing General conference, as always, and we were able to have some great friends over and our branch sisters. Its great to have such good friends around:)


Well that's it for now, hopefully it wont be so long until the next post.

Valentines Day!!!

Scott and I went to Atlanta for Valentine's day. Our tradition thus far (the last 5
v-days) was that Scott would cook me some fantastically amazing steaks. We would have home made mac and cheese, salad, bread, mashed potatoes and some good sparkling grape juice. Well we decided to change it up a little. Friday, some friends from Alabama invited us to a concert they had tickets too. We were going to go, but there was snow coming to the ATL so we decided we would head to our hotel room early.

Here is where we stayed!





It was so amazing. The people who helped us were so friendly and nice! And the attention to details in the hotel room were amazing. It was the weekend of a life time.







When we got there it was snowing and the roads were icing pretty bad so we walked down the street and ate at Fire of Brazil. It is a spin off from Fogo de Chow, but it was really good.

We walked back to the hotel, and it was freezing cold and wet and snowy. So we decided to stay in for the rest of the night and watch TV. The next morning we got up late and got ready and ate lunch at The Cheesecake Factory. I got some Miso Salmon and it was so good! And that is crazy coming from me because I don't like the way Americans cook salmon(I am a spoiled Asian:)) We left there and walked to Perimeter Mall and did a little shopping. Scott bought me a valentines gift but he wouldn't let me see it until Sunday. He gave it to me when I first woke up on Sunday morning under the amazing down comforter. When he gave it to me, it made me cry. He is always so sweet and thoughtful.

He got me some perfume and the bottle was engraved! It said:
To Kris, My Best Friend



That night we went at ate at Ruth's Chris Steak House. I have never been, but Scott had been a couple time before. It is the best place I have ever eaten at! It is now my favorite restaurant of all time! We had steaks and sweet potato souffle, salads, and steamed broccali. It was so delicious. I never knew that steaks could taste so good!!!


Hers's us at Ruth's Chris




It was such an amazing weekend and I enjoyed it so much! Especially because I had my husband all to myself for a whole weekend. We have only had a vacation with the two of us on our honeymoon, and our trip to Savannah last August. It was such a great break. I love my amazing husband and I am so happy we have had 5 happy years together.

New Job



I got a new job and I start Monday. My amazing husband got these beautiful flowers for me! I just love Scott and all he does to love and support me.

I want a beautiful home

I have been trying to decorate my house lately, and I dont really know how too. I have bought little things here and there that I like, but its hard to tie them all together. I never really grew up in a decorated home, so its kind of difficult to get creative. And it doesnt help that I am not very good with colors. But despite all that, I have noticed a change in my attitude when my house is pulled together. I really want my home to be comfortable and to be a place that the spirit can dwell. So here are a few things that I have pulled together so far.



This is a picture of my crazy massive fireplace. I have never seen a fireplace so enormous, and despite how difficult it is to decorate, I love it.

Scott and I bought 2 pictures of Christ that we absolutly love, and Scott just stuck them on the fireplace. I love the pictures, but not necessarily where they are, but I havent moved them because I love to look at them from the couch.



This is the vase I bought and I love how earthy it looks.



My mom bought me one of these pillows for Christmas from Ikea. I loved it so much I bought a couple more.





This is my guest bedroom. It needs a whole lot of work, but it work for now.



And this is the guest bathroom.



I really want to paint now that Scott and I have been here for a little over six months. It is crazy how time flys! Hopefully I will have more pictures to post in the future:)
