I am sooo excited for Utah!
I'm already packing! So far, here are our plans:
                                                         ***********
Friday: Start driving at 4AM...Arrive around 3PM. Go to JDawgz as soon as we arrive! [I'm not gunna eat all day, just so I can enjoy Jdawgz!] JDawgz has the BEST hotdogs ever!!! So after that, we're probably gunna hang out with Ry's family and get settled in :)
Saturday: We're planning on walking around BYU, going to the campus store, going to Desseret, stoping by JDawgz one more time, and then dinner with Ry's Fambam at Texas Roadhouse, and then after that we're going to the temple to sit and watch the fireworks.
Sunday: Church with Holly :) and after that just hang out with Ry's Fambam! And enjoy Austin!
Monday: We have a parade in the morning and a BBQ after. We might go swimming in the afternoon! For dinner, we might drive to SLC and have dinner at Lonestar Taqueria. About a week ago, I saw this place on Diners, Drive In's and Dives and I wrote down the name! they're supposed to have the best tacos...so we'll see! lol :)
Tuesday: We might take a tour of Dave's work, he works for the church news...so that should be fun! :) Later on that day, we want to stop by the MTC to volunteer :)
Wednesday: We drive home... :/

We have a pretty busy vacation lol :) I'm so excited!!!
I'll take plenty of pictures!

Friday Night Dates

Hi :)
One of my favorite things to do with Ry is go to the Covina Farmers Market on Friday night! It is absolutely adorable! So that's what we did last night :) While at the Farmers Market, we ran into a family from Ry's ward. Bro. Murphy is an excellent photographer, and he snapped a pic of us! :) It's right up there ^^^ After that, we went to dinner with some friends!
Oh! earlier that day, I had gotten a haircut!! I got an A-line! I was so scared! But, I love it :) Ryan loved it! Here are some pictures from yesterday, Enjoy!

June June June

June has been good to me :)
On June 5th Ryan and I went to Cafe Rio! It was our 16 Monthaversary. I love Cafe Rio =] I was a little dissapointed the first time I tried it, but I Love it now :) Anyways, I'm so excited! Next week we're gunna be going to Utah!! yay! We're going for 4th of July weekend! I'm so excited to see Austin! :) It'll be a nice way to start July!

So, back to June! We've been pretty busy! On June 11th, we went to a Dodgers Game! It was so fun! I looove Dodger games! On Saturday [the 12th] We went to Anneliese's graduation and later on that evening we went to her Grad Party!

 It was so much fun! I love hanging out with my friends! I wish we did it more often! It's just so difficult with conflicting schedules! On the 18th we went to dinner, the Covina Farmers Market, and to a movie with Becca and Mahinor. Double dates with them are always fun! We watched the Karate Kid, It was a good movie, but I still prefer the original. The next day, Lisa and Michelle had planned a chocolate dipping day with the girls from young women, but No one showed up to help! Only one person and she was a leader! And they had a TON of stuff to dip! So we went over and helped them for a bit :) After that, Ryan and I went to the mall to buy Ry's dad his gift for Fathers Day! We got him a new pair of shoes, a polo, and a button up shirt! After shopping, we went to Ry's house and watched the original Karate Kid :) On father's day, Ry went with me to church and after that I went over to his house to have dinner :)  Here are some pictures:

Oh and here's is my baby Noah!

This Friday, We have a double date with Robert and Gaby! I'm excited about that :) And on Saturday... Ryan has band practice and after that I'm not sure what we will be doing. I'll update! :)

Summer of Change :)

Happy Monday!!!
I'm really excited to blog today! Sooo, last night Ryan and I were talking about making some changes in our lifestyle so that we can be happier people! And we decided we are going to pray every time we're together, have family home evening twice a week (once with his family and once with mine), Read our scriptures, Pray consistently, eat healthier food, and exercise regularly. It sounds like quite a bit to do, but I know that if we take it one day at a time, everything will work out perfectly!

Tonight, we had family home evening with Ry's family. It was so great! I prepared the lesson, which was about Love at Home. It was very simple, Ryan helped me with a scripture, some thoughts, and his testimony. It was really fun! Everyone participated in the lesson! I had a couple cut outs to go along with the lesson. It was a flower that had different ideas on how to increase love at home and once it was put together, it looked pretty! They really enjoyed themselves. We discussed many things that would help, and everyone agreed to try their best! I'm really excited!

After FHE, Ryan and I worked out in the garage. He lifted some weights, and after that I did an aerobic work out! Its a mixture of dance and aerobics. It was really fun! we were sweating like crazy! So, I feel very accomplished! All I have to do is read my scriptures and say a prayer! It feels so great to accomplish my personal goals! Well, I'm off to bed!

Good Night!

Oh Dear...

This Week has been rough!
Things at home have been a little crazy. Nothing extremely horrible, just a few things here and there. My mom and her bf argue over dumb things. And I always stress over my sister and the baby. She might be moving out soon, with her bf. So, We'll see. I just want everything to be okay with her and the baby. Work has been good, but my boss has been so rude lately. ugh... he's so arrogant! School...its finals week! so that is self explanatory. As for Ryan, everything was fine, up until last night. He asked me something that offended me, and it just kind of ruined the day. It was our 16 month-aversary yesterday, so I was hoping it would be great, but it didn't turn out that way. But it's okay. I'm quick to forgive, so things are better now. Well, that's about it.
 

Onto a few positive things: 

• 
  
  

  I have a surprise for Ry, and I haven't ruined it! He has no clue!

• 
  
  

  I cooked enchiladas yesterday and they were delicious :) 

• 
  
  

  I bought Ry a Dodger hat and it fit! lol 

• 
  
  

  We played Monopoly with Ry's family, and I won! It was fun :) 

  Sooo, yeah. That's it for now!
  

Love

I had a wonderful date with my babe today :) It was gorgeous, romantic, and relaxing! I loooved it!
