This One's For Liz

One of my best friends, Liz, is in the National Guard and she's actually in Afghanistan right now serving our country. We can't really communicate other than computer so I just wanted to do a post dedicated to her and our friendship. I can't wait until she gets back, so we can plan another girls trip! I miss talking to her all the time, so I was just going through some old pictures and thought I would share.


This is the first year she moved here. Gotta love the bangs!


In high school, we had sleepovers all the time! I think her mom thought I was her other daughter!


Visiting my grandma on summer vacations!

Working together at Chilis.


College Dances..


And finally growing up and getting away for girls weekends.

Miss you, Liz. I can't wait until you get home!

Kyle's Graduation!

I totally forgot to put up a post about Kyle graduating! Jake and I are so proud of you! Congratulations on finally graduating high school!!



Kyle is going to hate this picture being on here, but Kyle always makes me laugh and this picture was a perfect way to show the fun we have together. Love you Kyle!



This picture also makes me laugh. My family can never take a good picture!!

Happy 1 year, Bud!

K, I am such a slacker with this blogging thing. But Jake and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary on Memorial Day, so I just wanted to do a quick post dedicated to Jacob and tell him some reasons why I love him.

1. He always make me laugh.
2. He's the best cuddler ever! (he'll be embarrassed by that one!)
3. He is so compassionate towards everyone. He LOVES helping others out. It makes me want to be more giving to others.
4. He always surprises me with little gifts that he knows I want, but would never buy for myself.
5. He is the BEST uncle to all our nieces and nephews, so I know he will be a good dad!

There's way more, but this will do for now. Happy Anniversary, Bud!!



I almost forgot to write about what we did! Jake's family always has their reunion over Memorial Day weekend, so this year we were lucky enough to stay at a condo in Park City. His brothers and sisters all agreed to let Jake and I have the Master Suite since it was our anniversary. We had a way good relaxing weekend. We just hung out in the condo for the most part, but we did go out to dinner and to the park and stuff. Oh and of course shopping! Here's some pictures of the condo.

It's Official!!

As of May 29th, Jakes sister Robyn and her husband Jamie legally adopted Manamea!! We're so happy for them! Congratulations Jamie, Robyn and Manamea!! Such a cute family!
