Coming Back

I will write a post soon and update everyone on our exciting lives...but I'm not really in the mood right now. So just continue being patient and you'll get one heck of a post! :)

Much love to you all!

It All Ends Here

Words do not describe my excitement about Harry and the gang! I feel like a chapter in my own life is closing, and that is fine. I have other books to read, other characters to relate to and fall in love with.



We had a good run, but I'll always have the books and the movies to relive the adventures!

Today

I might be going boating today! I am super STOKED!

Also, we went to the Airborne Arena on Monday night. It was fun and a great work out! I am sore... :(

If you are looking for a yummy place to eat, I would suggest the "Black Bear Diner" on 9400 S Highland Drive. It was awesome! We went there for our anniversary celebration, and I enjoyed every minute of it. BUT if you don't have a big appetite, I would suggest sharing, cause there was MORE than enough food between Devy and I.

525600 minutes ago...(That's one year, roughly)

I was eating breakfast on my wedding day! This has been the best year of my life and I don't think I could be any happier! I am so blessed to be married to this wonderful man!

He works so hard to provide for us, and to take care of me. Thank you to everyone who played a part in our special day, and for staying our friends when we get slightly schmarmy!





I AM THE LUCKIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD!!

Thoughts

Just a short post today...if you didn't guess, I got bored with that dumb challenge! Ha ha! BUT my little brother, Jeffrey DeVon, graduates today. I am SO proud of him! I graduated 5 years ago yesterday(6.6.6 scary right?!). Crazy how fast life goes by. I hope everyone stops to enjoy the little things!

I LOVE having Emily, Jake and Ellie here! I love my family so much and feel blessed that not only was I born into a great family, but married into one as well; they are always there whenever we might need them! Sorry you had to go home today Jake, but I'm really glad Emily and Ellie got to stay...



How could you NOT love that face?!

Devin had a great time in Morrison, CO for the concert! He said it was everything he imagined and more. He, and the rest of the boys made it home safe. Even if my car did not :( Hopefully we'll get it picked up soon. If anyone knows how to replace/repair a cylinder and gasket, we'd REALLY appreciate it. I did surprisingly well staying home by myself(For the first time in MY LIFE! No Joke) I didn't even think there were ghosts in the apartment, mostly because I didn't watch Zac and the gang on "Ghost Adventures". It also helped being able to go over to my parents and hang out with everyone.

Pictures to come later!

Day 11: Favorite quote

Dear Mother Nature,

I HATE YOU! That is all...

Sincerely, me

I don't even feel like it should be the middle of May, I know everyone says that...but I LOVE SUMMER almost as much as my husband. And that is saying A LOT! I try to look on the bright side by thinking about how the rain will help fill up the lakes for boating...but guess what? I think with the amount of rain we've received this year, we've filled the lakes up twice over!

In other news...I just wanted to share a quote with you all from Coz 2011.

"Why is the dark ones can't be afforded?"

-Brant Lucas

Now this quote refers to empty condos...one night, while sitting in the hot tub, someone commented on all the dark condos at the Palmar Condominiums were we stay. So Brant, just wondering why people weren't renting them, asked this question...just had trouble getting it out right! But that sentence was repeated OFTEN throughout the rest of the week, it was awesome!

Now for a serious quote...written by J.K. Rowling.

"It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be."

-(Pretty sure this was said by Dumbledore)

This means (to me) that you are who you want to become! Nobody can choose but you.

Day 10: A place you've been too

We've traveled to all the normal places everyone else usually has...

St. George

Vegas

 Disneyland

SeaWorld

I'm going to Boise in a few weeks, never been there before! Pretty excited!! Dev is REALLY excited to go to Morrison, CO for the concert...but we also have been to Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico and not a lot of people have spent a week on the island like we have. Its really nice there and I love it!

It is also probably our favorite place in the world cause we got engaged there! Best decision of my life! :)

My family has been to Hawaii and I am DYING to go back! It really is heaven on earth to me! I will make Devin take me there before we die, cause I know he would love it as much as I do!

(This could actually be the beach where we stayed...but I'm not sure cause I googled this photo!)

I was reminded by my sister Emily about our family trips to Lake Powell growing up. I forgot about the trips while writing this blog, but the fact is, I've never forgotten about those trips! They were the best ever! We would always go with our family friends, the Isaac's("Dan the Man" and his father "Jim Bo Billy Bob"), and have an absolute blast! We would watch "Little Rascal's" constantly, sleep on top of Doc's Orders(that was our houseboats name), get wind chapped so bad, we'd cry from the stinging the lotion would cause, cook Lake Powell dinner(teryaki chicken and heavenly potatoes), set up mouse traps for the critters trying to get on the boat, have at least one storm every year where the boat would come loose and howell at the coyotes that never seemed too far away!

Lake Powell is one of the best places on Earth, and if you are one of those tree hugging environmentalists who wants to drain my beloved Powell, I will punch you in the throat! :)
