jarom's Farewell!!

Well i cant belive that my awesome nephew Jarom is leaving on a mission!!! I am so proud of him and I know the people of France will love him and he will be an amazing missionary- just like his sister :) We were able to go to his farewell on sunday in fillmore. He gave a wonderful talk and of course there was a farewell "party" at ephra's house later! It was so good to get to see everyone. Later that night we went to my bestest friend Danielle and Braden's house for sunday dinner and she made a beautiful dinner for us. Unfortunaly i didnt get any pics this time.

Family Day at Seven Peaks

    Well its been forever since i have been able to get on here and update!!! Our internet is through verizion so we pay for so much usuage a month and we used it all up way early this month thanks to a movie website we found! So now that we have the internet again i can start my daily blogging!!!!
       Joel's family was able to come up to orem and visit us for the weekend and go to seven peaks!! We had a blast and yes amazingly all 11 adults and 5 kids were able to fit in out little apartment!!! Everyone pulled out sleeping bags and blankets and it worked out awesome!! On monday we went to the park and had a blast. We were a little sad that half of the park was closed because of some problems. The kids would have loved the little kids pool but they still had a blast going down some of the bigger slides. It was so good to get to see everyone and sad the weekend went by so fast!

Birthday FUN!!!

Well the funnest thing about our birthdays is they are only a day apart!!! Mine is august 9th and joels in aug 10th!!! It's way fun to celebrate two birthdays in a row!! This year mine landed on monday which is our day off so we went to breakfast at a place called Kneaders. We'd never been there but i heard they had amazing french toast and let me tell you they have the most amazing french toast ever!! And its all you can eat!!! After breakfast we went to the mall to get joel's birthday present! He's been wanting a new phone forever so he got the new chocolate touch!! He loves it!



After that we came home and made lunch to go have a picnick out at nunns park in provo canyon! It was so pretty out there and nice. We walked to Bridal veil falls. The falls were very pretty!

This year we decided to only get one cake since it was just the two of us. Well so i was nice enough to let joel pick the cake so he picked out an oreo cake. It was yummy!!!
22 Candles for me! :)
...and 24 for Joel!! :)

Jeep

DAY 6
Well this was kind of a sad day. We found ourselves in a postition where we've got to sell some things and the only thing we can that would benefit us is to sell the jeep. Its been giving us some problems lately and its for the best to get rid of it now. Joel and I are very sad of course because we love the jeep but i guess sometimes you gotta do what ya can to get out of debt right...so this blog is dedicated to some of the fun times in the jeep :)




minature golf at trafalga

Day 5
One of the benefits of Joel working at 7 peaks is we get sweet deals on the businesses they own so we have a free pass to 7 peaks as well as the Trafalga. So we decided to go do minature golf and some go carts. It was pretty fun just the two of us doing a date night. The go cart i picked ran out of gas though so i didnt get to do that very long but it was fun. We did the outside course because it was so hot inside!

dented car

Day 4
well im a little behind so this is just a little update.
So one morning on my way to work i got backed into. It was in the parking-lot and the girl didnt see me. i even honked at her but she just kept backing up well sadly she hit my door and dented it in pretty good. I was so bummed because this is my new car!!!! luckily she had insurance so we took it in and they fixed it for us. i had to drive my old subaru around for a few days while my car was in the shop. But now its back and looks so good!!!!
