Day 7 – Your dream wedding.

My Dream Wedding took Place on May 9th ,2009 in Manti Utah where i was SEALED to the man of my dreams [my BEST FRIEND] for TIME & ALL ETERNITY! It wouldn't be to hot or to cold & the sun would be out ALL Day.
We had TONS of Support from our friends and Family...




My HUSBAND and I would have a prima-smile and be so happy we couldn't stop looking at each other.



My Dress would match my personality, My shoes would be comfortable and cute, and my Colors would match the season so well.

 (my brother couldn't believe that i would wear flats because my husband is so much taller than me)
(my Grandma did all my flowers..)
(Simple cake that was SOOO good.)

Our Parents/ Families were so happy (and excited that i made everything simple & easy to clean up.)




 We would be nice when we ate the cake.

 (of Course i got the BIGGEST piece and couldn't eat it)
 (we cut the cake Perfectly. everyone was so impressed)

We would have our first dance to "Better Together" by Jack Johnson.


 After Dancing & eating a little we Zoomed off in our Trusty Vibe!


 I would re-live my wedding day if i could i wouldn't change any of it.

Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.

Mike & I talked about pets that we would wont to have once we get our own house. Right now we can only have gold fish but when we have enough room we would like to have a Black Lab or a Chocolate Lab.

We aren't really animal people but it would be good for the kids to have something to play with and take care of. If they stayed cute and little i would let them in the house but they get big and in the way so animals will be kept out side.

Quick Hospital Story

Yesterday Mike & i took trip to the Hospital hoping to coming home with a baby.
It all started Saturday night...
I started to have consistent contractions with a little pain. but after being on my feet all day i didn't think much of it.
Sunday morning my Contractions were still consistent but not very strong so we went to church. During Sacrament we timed them and they started getting stronger. I had to play the organ so i didn't really want to think about the contractions (I don't think Titus likes me playing, that or he LOVES it cause he would kick and move like crazy when i would play.) My Conractions were starting to take my breath away in sunday school so we timed them and they were 3 to 5 min apart. After sunday school we decided it would be better to be safe then sorry so we went to the hospital.
While at the hospital they checked me & i was at a 1 and 70 % Effaced. They monitored me and Titus for a while. Everything was going good so they decided to let me eat and start walking (to help get me to a 4. four is the magic number to be moved over to Labor & Delivery). Mike and I walked the Hospital for 2 HOURS. I had to do exercises during my contractions so every 3 mins we would stop and i would do my weird exercise.
After the two hours we went back up to the Labor & delivery ER to be checked again and SADLY we were still at a ONE. They sent us home... and so today i am going to be doing my exercises, Clean and keep busy.

Mike is getting so excited and had been texting me every chance he gets to see if my contractions have gotten harder. So i better get off my butt and start Squatting so this little man can be on his way.. We will keep you all updated.

Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.

 Two Years ago...I Graduated from CEU
(Mike Me Soap & Brandi)
Went through The Draper Temple
 (My Parents with Me & Mike)
 (Mikes Parents with Me & Mike)
Became Mrs. Terry



Was SUPER skinny in a swim suite.
 And hung out with Mickey & MIKEY!

It's so Crazy how things change so fast. In two years i went from being a CEU Eagle to a USU Aggie to a Utah Ute (i did get in so technically i am a ute). I went from being Larissa Ivory to Larissa Terry to Titus' mom.

Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.



I couldn't just pic one picture of my best friend so i picked 3. Mike Has a amazing smile and i love his attitude with his awesome shades. This Guy is the best friend a girl could ask for, putting up with me and my clean freaky-ness these  past few weeks. ( i have been cleaning & getting things ready for Titus the last few weeks & have been moving things around.) He gets so excited about things  (like last night i told him i was have contractions and cramps for a while and he couldn't go to sleep till like 2 am.) But he is the best, I couldn't ask for a better husband, best friend & dad for Titus.

Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date.

SO i know i'm going to miss a few days of these so i'm going to do Day 3 now just for the heck of it (and cause it's Saturday night and we are just chilling at home)

My Idea of the Perfect First Date is my first date with my Husband.
         I was so nervous to meet Mike ( I knew who he was but we had never really talked or even acknowledge each other before.)  He Picked me up at my house and was a real Gentlemen, Talking to my parents before we took off and opening my door. ( i can even tell you what i was wearing. my Orange sweater my hair half up & Mike Smelled really really good.
         We went to El Salto's in Price for some decent Mexican food. (i had enchiladas so did mike.)
          After El Saltos we went to his parents house to watch a movie, "The Prestige".


          After the Movie he took me home. Yay it was a simple date but it was so much fun. I never knew i could just talk and have such a good time on a first date.
I'm sure after the date we started texting each other because later that weekend sat by each other at church and then Later meet up at Prayer meeting together. (he was heading home after and Stopped in Provo to see his new Nephew Franky!)

These are Pictures of a date we went on a few months after our first date. We went to the Manti Pageant with my BF from high school & her Boyfriend. 

This was at the top of Huntington Canyon in June (look Snow)
Just before the Pageant started.  (Notice: i am standing on my tip toes and i barely go to his shoulder)
End day 3
