downtown indy

We LOVE seeing Ady (and chase & brooke) more than we have ever been able to!

so nice to have family out here with us this summer!

Look at both of their blue eyes! crazy beautiful.

can you even stand this face?

JAZZ KITCHEN + SALSA DANCING NIGHT 

+ 3 conservative married couples 

=

 Ridiculously fun for us, undoubtably awkward for those watching us. ha. 

We headed out on the town about 10:30 and got home about 1:30 in the AM..

i know what your thinking.. "those wild and crazy cats", right?.. 

I thought those days were long past and buried with my singles years.. but NOPE.. 

salsa night at the jazz kitchen has reborn the "clubbers" in us!

..HA..

... WE WISH ...

The truth:

we ALL were exhausted for 3 days after our late night out on the town.. not to mention SO sore for busting our mad moves.

we're get'n old, darn it. 

How lucky am I to be out here with such cute/sweet/fun girlfriends?!

Chase's face in this picture is just a sneak peak into one of the greatest nights of his life... Brooke's RIS-KAY salsa moves were driving him wizzz-ild! 

RARRRR. 

Caleb & Cassi 

.... our new FAB friends...

were the life of the salsa party.. so fun, love them.

Grab'n some grub before a long night on the dance floor. 

how gross was my broccoli/cheddar soup that night. woof.

Meet my friend 

Cooper.

.... and Carter 

(he's tucked away in his momma's pouch)

I have LOVED getting to know Cassi and her lil fam.. what a fun crew they are. Funny I have only known them for a few weeks.. from the first day i met them.. felt like i have known them for years. So glad they are here.. friends like them are what make these summer experiences all worth while!
... and of coarse Ady again.

ok so my hips were slightly bruised, and i may have been stuck for a few minutes.... but i wanted to try the lil blue swing out since the first time i laid eyes on it, so at least i got it under my belt early on in the summer. 

a first and a last.

Whats this????? 

Is that grease I see on those baby bottom smooth hands of yours sweet person?

Yup.. I'm one proud friend

Germany got up this morning and looked up how to change the brake pads/rotors on our car this morning.. and the next thing  I know.. he's all greased up get'n  'er done! 

Like I said, I sincerely am so proud of this "coming of age/a giant step into manhood" moment for jeremy... but not near as proud as he was of himself! 

I wish I could have captured the beam that was radiating from him as he talked about his feat in the auto industry each and every hour throughout the day.

I didn't know until today.. but its true what they say

... there is just something about grease and sweat on yo man...

 delish to the eye.

Great job cute champ.

we are absolutely loving Indy.. all sugar coating aside.

don't get me wrong.. my homesick moments creep in, and a few tears have been shed as i think about my family in idaho... but... 

we feel so blessed to be here with such great friends and people all around us.. 

and know this is exactly what and where we are suppose to be ... even though it was quite the process deciding to come!

Funny how life happens just as it should. Thank heavens someone knows us better than we know ourselves. 

Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.

COUG GRAD ...and new adventures!

Germ germany germ germany germ.. germ.. germ, geru!

Graduated from BYU this past week.. and I couldn't be more proud of this cute person. We have had so much fun in Provo.. but are ready and excited to move on to a different phase in our life... and I'll keep you updated when I'm updated on that next phase ;) .. only partly kidding...

Jeremy plans to start his MBA in the fall, as well as, pursue some business ideas at the same time. We said goodbye to Utah pretty permanently, and are hoping to end up in North Carolina for a couple of years starting in the fall.. and couldn't be MORE excited about it! We lived in NC for a few months right after we got married and it was GORGEOUS.

We are SO excited about living in new places and meeting new friends (although we will miss our Utahans! .. especially those at Jeppson Dental!!)

Yes, sad about being far away from family.. but they have ALL promised to come visit, and I'm one persistent lil bugger.. so I'll get em all here! .... and you all know how we CRAVE visitors.. so get your trip planned whether it is to Indianapolis this summer or North Carolina in the fall!

Try and tell me this isn't the yummiest-faced coug grad you have ever seen!

Congrats person of mine, so proud. Love, Luff, Luv you.

After we had Jer's little graduation celebration, I asked him what he wanted to do.. and this is what he chose... to shoot hoops and act like morons at a park right by our house. We played 1 on 1 and horse FOREVER.. and for the lack of time.. if you really want to know who won horse, leave me a comment and I'll get back to ya. ha.

Jeremy couldn't come to Idaho falls with me last weekend bc he was finishing up some finals, but I went to get our car fixed and to kinda say goodbye to my fav people. It was so refreshing to be with them.. and to be able to be OUTSIDE the whole time... making tinfoil dinner.. playing tennis..having josh try on my one piece Christmas jammies...and a little 4-wheel'n... and of coarse squeezing and smothering my sweetest nieces and nephews!

And we're off!!

On our way to live in INDIANA for the summer, where Jeremy will be selling home security,... we stopped in

NAUVOO.

What an amazing, humbling, and sacred experience. I wish I could put into words the feelings and thoughts that were going through my mind and heart just being in that sacred place, and being next to that incredible temple! Jeremy and I both had tears in our eyes pretty much our entire stay in nauvoo. The town has not been very modernized and I think that was the neatest part about it... we could almost imagine what it was like as the original temple was being built. Although, I can't even imagine the pain and heartache the saints endured through that grueling time. The statue of Joseph and Hyrum on their horses looking toward the temple was a powerful reminder of what they endured for the members of the church then, and all of us now. My testimony of Joseph Smith and the restored Gospel was renewed and strengthened tremendously after this experience. Its a "MUST SEE" place to visit.
NEXT... we stopped in

CHICAGO!

Shopping central! Oh my good heck... that place is GINORMOUS! I have always wanted to go to Chicago, and now I know why! We ate at Gino's East.. known for its chicago style deep dish pizza... OMGOSH!!!!!!!!! Pretty sure that is the 8th world wonder. Ridiculously good, and well worth the hour and half wait... plus... you can write all over the walls while you wait!

It rained SO very much the day we were there, so Jeremy was on the verge of depression meds because the Cubs game was cancelled, poor guy. We'll def be back for a game and some more shopping.. and hopefully OPRAH!

We made it to Indy.. and are SO excited to be here.
We took a long drive today to get associated with our summer homeland. It was a beautiful day, and its so GREEN and beautiful here. We both love visiting and being in new places, so we are so so excited about our little 4-5 month stay in Indianapolis. We feel so blessed just to have each other, as cheesehead as that sounds. As I was sitting here thinking today about how different it will be not going back to Utah in the fall.. I just got a peaceful feeling when thinking that it really doesn't matter where we go.. because it will be together, and I'll always have my friend with me. WOW.. are you sick yet? .... please don't stop reading/visiting my blog because of that sappy comment, I'll keep it clean from here on out (for the most part).

We love all of you and feel so grateful for great friends, and AMAZING families. Come see us!

busy. fun. family. happy easter.

Lots been going on.. and it doesn't seem to be slow'n down.

I'll keep it brief.

My MIL & FIL(Lance, and Nancy) & Chase, Brooke, & Ady came to see us a couple weekends ago. Love them, and we missed Lanae & Aaron and their kiddies! 

k.. i could water up just writing this, but i had to say goodbye to a couple of my girls! My last day of work is officially tomorrow, but Nicole was going out of town and Savannah had her last day last week.. and i can't even express how bad i'm going to miss these cute girls and my job. Dr Jeppson is seriously one of the best people I have ever worked with, and I would HIGHLY recommend him as a dentist to anyone... and YES... i am blog advertising for him.. even though my last day is tomorrow! let me know if you need to contact him! 

I introduced mister to freshly squeezed lemonade! look at his expression.. kinda mean... but priceless.

and even after that he still likes me! 

I hadn't seen my sister, Natalie, in over 3 months. It was so good to re-unite the Huls sista's.  

all of us with straight hair. what what!!! 

Easter was wonderful with both families.

My niece Brianne

Lace made her famous sugar cookies, and posed for a foxy pic in between her hard work

Davey Crockett showed up on Easter! My nephew Kaegon LOVES his rat tail hat.. wears it everywhere. love that kid

Layton..aka..Hoatie    posing with his football

his quote about flag football "its so easy for me!" ha. 

Just in case you were wondering.. my friend is still cute. Blood shot eyes and all! 

MORGAN, my niece, got baptized this past weekend. I didn't have my camera that day.. so I had to use this picture from Halloween to show her cute face. We are so proud of Morgan and love her so much.

Ady turned 1!!!!

Her party and Easter egg hunt was fab.

Can you even believe her cute face?! so glad i will be seeing LOTS more of her this summer!!!

Germ had a few days of soul searching and thought for a minute he might want to try out the biker mustache.. he quickly repented and shaved the wretched thing! 

head'n home

We had a great time in Idaho.. it had been over 3 months since we had been home to visit.. so it was so very refreshing and great to see our fam's.  

We had family pictures taken for BOTH families on Saturday.. so stay tuned for lots of Call and Huls family pics.  

Hope you all had a wonderful EASTER. What a beautiful holiday to reflect, ponder, and celebrate the incredible blessing that our Savior has given us. 

just a saint week

..... st patrick's day  &  st george .....

First and foremost.. I want to wish my beautiful MOM a Happy Birthday!! She is a St.Patricks Day birthday girl... so NO ONE.. EVER forgets her birthday.. but we wouldn't anyway mom! Hope it was a great day! Wish we could have been there! 

LOVE you suwee.

(wow... must have been hilarious)

Last weekend Chels, Gord & Tydon came and stayed the night with us... even though they live in Utah now.. I love it!  and Friday night we rang in St. Patty's Day early with a GREEN dinner.

The bro's re-united! 

Jeremy, Nelson, and JC after the jazz game... best high school friends & college roommies 

At the Jazz game on St. Patricks Day... apparently I was the ONLY one that remembered it was St. Patty's Day... either that or Jeremy was right when he said people stop dressing up in green when they are about 12. 

not sure what to label this one... but hey, they are from blackfoot. 

so fun to see these girls, brings back the good ol poky days. i was roommates with Hayley my last year of college, and JC was rooming with Jeremy... we set them up and the rest is history.. their kids can thank us later. 

Who's the leprechaun?

Lace kicked our trip to St. George off right with a jaw breaker in cheek... while slurping a Double Gulp 

... and MR was the hit all weekend. such a good boy & LOVED the hike.

 have i ever mentioned that i love this kid!

Peace, Love, and War

stayed with grams again. wish we could have seen her more.. she had to take off for a wedding the morning after we got there.. but THANKS for letting us stay grammie.. love you love you love you.

We hiked in Zions National park... 

...... Did I mention that we were a TINY mislead by my bro in law JARED that there may quite possibly be a water hole at the end of our hike that we could swim in. Lace and I had the fab idea planned to lay out at the end of our hike in the 80 degree St. George weather. So Cali-geared up we headed for the mountains and the water. You betcha... SWIM SUITS, BEACH SKIRTS, and even threw on a couple cute pairs of dangly earrings.

Never in my worst nightmares have I gotten so many ridiculous and awe struck stares from people in the appropriate TEVA & North Face  gear... I mean come on... my skirt is FLORAL print... AHHHH. I could die just thinking about it. I'm really not one to get embarrassed real easily, but after about the 20th head turn I could have crawled in a tarantula hole and die. (we did take off our earring about 2 minutes up the mountain) 

So... when we finally reached the infamous "water hole"..  we were greeted by a great big sign.."NO SWIMMING"... and the water was a dark brown/green color and about 2 feet deep, not to mention at the top of the mountain it had rapidly reached a teeth chattering 40 degrees with snow spotting the red rock. and you guessed it.. NO JACKETS, we were expecting the beach at the peak of grueling hike I guess... our husbands couldn't have enjoyed it more... not the hike.. lace and I's foolish "legally blonde" actions. 

I have to defend us by saying we really are NOT the frilly.. prom dress while you hike... pink addicted ladies we acted like this weekend, but we learned our lesson. Next time Zions Park meets us.. our TEVA's will be shined up... our bandannas strapped to our foreheads, and we'll leave the floral and levi skirts at the pool. 

MORAL OF THE STORY... Zions Park DOES NOT have a swimming watering hole.

It really was gorgeous, and so fun! 

at our watering hole, about to dive in. ha.
