Finally! McCall Part 2
So I finally got the pictures from my mom's camera of the trip to McCall in July! I wanted to post the pictures of us canoing, because I still can't believe we did that! I felt like Pocahantas the whole time! And believe me I was singing.."just around the river bend" the entire ride! Rob was pitching in on the parts of the song he could remember! It was pretty funny! For those of you that did not read my previous post, Rob and I took the girls in their car seats for a ride in a canoe down the Payette river. The river was only about four or five feet deep, and I could see the bottom. There was absolutely no current, and our canoe was very stable. The girls laughed and smile the entire ride! It was definitely the highlight of the trip and quite possibly the highlight of my summer!
5 Years! Happy Anniversary!




On Saturday, August 16, 2008 we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary! I still can't believe how fast time has gone! In the last 5 years we have both graduated from BYU, changed jobs two or three times, moved to Las Vegas, moved houses twice, and managed to have twin daughters! With the third child's arrival approaching quicker than we ever imagined! So much has happened and I would not trade one minute of it! In the process I have learned more about Rob than I thought I ever could! I thought I knew everything about him before we got married! And through it all, I love him more today than I did on our wedding day! So happy anniversary Rob! I love you more than words can express!
To celebrate our special day, Rob surprised me and took me out on a date! We had dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House, and just sat and talked for two hours! It was fabulous! After we went and got Golden Spoon frozen yogurt, and bought enough to share with our awesome babysitters- Melanie and Jason! Thanks for taking care of our girls!
As for gifts this year...we were extra romantic...and bought each other electric toothbrush's! WOW! We could definitely step it up a notch next year!

Our Story...
- Amanda Finlinson
- Rob and I met in November of 2002 in the financial services office at BYU. After a very akward introduction, which involved me introducing myself in the third person, Rob called and asked me out. After a pretty amazing first date (its a long story-some other time), I confidently told Rob "that once he dated me he would never want to date anyone else." I really had no idea at that point that it was going to work out so well. We dated for the next five months and then one beautiful night on a bridge at Sundance resort, Rob and I got engaged. We were married four months later on August 16, 2003 in the Las Vegas, NV temple. And we have been living happily ever after since...
