Crazy couple months and Holidays

So it has been almost a year since I have updated the blog. Lets just say that it has been super crazy around here. Thanksgiving was fun spent it with my family this year. I had to work half a day so the time was short with the family. Justin has one more semester left at BYU and than he graduates. He has been looking for jobs and had a interview in Boise ID this past week. I got to go along with him and the company paid for everything. We seemed to like Boise and will see what happens with the job. Next week are finals than we will be ready for the christmas break. I can't believe how fast this year has gone. We are going to Vegas for christmas I am so excited to go. We have been so blessed this year with everything that has happened.

End of Summer

Wow our summer was full of excitement and fun. Justin and I were still working during the summer but did have family reunions to go to on both sides of the family. We had one family reunion up in layton at a park. It was nice to see the cousin's that I had not seen in a long time and hang out with the family playing games and talking to each other


Justin's family reunion was up at Bear Lake. Everybody stayed at his cousin's cabin that was close to the lake. It was nice to go up there for a couple of days and relax. We enjoyed boating hiking and enjoying everyone. The following weekend we went to Lake Powell with his parents and sisters and his cousins aunt and uncle. It was so fun. 

One Year Anniversary

So today is our One Year Anniversary that came up really fast. With our anniversary being on a Sunday we spent it together on that Saturday. I didn't think that Justin had anything planned since he was really busy with school but to my surprise he did. He took me up the canyon the Bridal Veil Falls were he proposed to me. We had a lunch at the spot where he asked me to marry him very romantic and fun. Afterwards he took me to see Valentines Day I was shocked because Justin does not like to go to movies let alone go to the movies and see a chick flick. It was the perfect day for the two of us

Christmas Break and Holidays

So it's Christmas break for Justin. This year we will be going to my parents. It will be rough for my Mom with her parents not being there and rough for my Dad with his mom not being there. I love the holidays and I know that we will have a good time. Favorite tradition my family does is playing games and of course telling the story of baby Jesus. This Christmas and New Years Eve is our first time together as a married couple. We got some pretty cool gifts, Justin was nice and took me to go and get the Wii. I got him a nice bike for him so that he can start doing some Triathlons in the summer. This spring will be busy with school and work again. That is pretty much all we do is school and work.

Thanksgiving

This year was our first thanksgiving together as being married. We went to justins parents house and a few people from the singles ward was there. It was fun to be with family and we had so much food and i ate so much pie as well. I love the holidays because you get to relax and enjoy being lazy. We watched movies played some games and looked through the ads to see if there was anything good for the black friday sells, justin did go to game stop and got some games for christmas. We both are still staying busy in about a couple of weeks justin will be studying for finals and be on christmas break wahoo!!!

USA soccer

So the beginning of this month has been crazy with me still working a lot and with Justin doing work at nights and doing school in the mornings everyday, so the only time that we really get to see each other and hang out are the weekends. So on September 5th Justin and I decided to go to the USA vs El Salvador men's soccer game and it was such a blast we had decent seats granite that we were sitting in the El Salvador section but we still had a blast and not to mention that USA won so it made the game really fun. These next couple of weeks coming up are going to be crazy too we both have a lot of events coming up. Once again I hope those of you who are reading this are enjoying it and hopefully I am doing a good job writing on my blog so that you can get to know Justin and I a little better

Vacation to North Carolina

My parents decided to take the whole family to Emerald Isle in North Carolina. Some of us flew out on Friday July 31 and some of us flew out on Saturday August 1 we stayed a whole week. My parents paid for everyone to fly out and covered the meals, my mom just went to costco so we had meals every night,parents also paid for everyone to stay at the beach house which was a really nice house and very expensive. It included a home theater room, pool and foosball tables, swimming pool and three hot tubs. It was really nice because we had a walk way that went straight to the beach. This house also had eight bedrooms which was nice since there was 22 of us there. The activities were fun that we planned and did. We went swimming at the beach a lot and at the pool it was nice to relax and some bonding time with the family. Church was very good this ward has the building to themselves and they are spiritual people. Coming from a state is mostly LDS to see the people there at the church really brought that spirit and helped my testimony. Monday we had FHE and went miniature golfing which we didn't end up finishing because it was a down poor but did end up going on Wednesday.
The weather was nice though for the rest of the vacation. Tuesday the boys went deep sea fishing for the whole day and caught many fish 50lbs worth, while they were doing that the girls went shopping!!! and spent the day of the beach. Wednesday we went to this really cool historic site called the Fort Macon that was used in the different wars including the civil war and world war two. It was so interesting to learn about how they lived and took care of each other. Thursday we went the aquarium, we saw many fish and even went to a show there,they let us know the different types of fish that were at the aquarium and told us that along the shores of the beach there were a lot of sunken ships out there from the wars. Later that day we went to a town called Beaufort which was cool to see the different houses marinas are everywhere and trees are all around you. Different from the city and here where we live. They had a lot of different shops and there history was cool. Some of us went back on Friday to see the pirates invasion that they were having that weekend. Unfortunately the pirates were just there they were doing the pirate fights on Saturday and that was the day that we were all coming home so we missed that the kids were sad. This trip was so amazing and just what the family needed since July was such a hard month for us. Just wanted to let my parents know that the family loves them and we really appreciate all that they do us. Love you mom and dad. Thanks for the wonderful trip!!!
