A fun Weekend With Family

Friday was my 22nd Birthday. I spent the day shopping with my mother and sister in law. Later that evening we all went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse and had an ice cream cake from coldstone! It was such a great Birthday! Thank you everyone!

On Saturday Brook brought my nieces over to go swimming in our pool. The water was a bit chilly, but I think that they had a good time.

Feeding the ducks

We went to this pond to feed the ducks and they came right up to us to get the bread. It was a little scary because I thought they might bite my toes, but they were really cute. I wanted to take one home with us! 

Our Anniversary

Saturday was our one year wedding anniversary. We decided to stay at a hotel Friday night. When we arrived Jade surprised me with rose petals all over the room and a single rose to mark our 1st year together being married, he is so sweet. We went swimming at the hotel pool, went out to eat and saw Angels & Demons in the theater. It was a great Anniversary and I couldn't be married to a better guy. 

OnE YeAr!

On Saturday May 16th, Jade and I will have been married for one year! I can't believe how fast our first year of being married has flown by. I couldn't be any happier than I am now. I am so thankful for such a loving husband who makes me feel special each and every day. I love him more than he will ever know and I feel so lucky to have my best friend by my side every step of the way. I love you Jade! :)

A Quick Trip Home

This past weekend we went home for my good friend

Holly's wedding. It was a quick trip, but it was nice

to see family and friends while we were there.

Congratulations Holly! I am so happy for you.

You looked so beautiful! I wish you and Micah all 

the best in your future together! Love you!

Update

It has been crazy the last couple of weeks. I have had my fair share of doctors appointments in the last month. I ended up getting tubes in my ears last Friday. I have a problem with my ears known as eustachian tube dysfunction. Which basically means that my ears don't equalize pressure properly which causes them to always be plugged, makes it painful to travel, and has caused me multiple sinus infections. I am hoping that the tubes will solve the problem and my ears will be able to feel normal again. A few days before my surgery Jade was laid off from work again! It frustrates me that they laid him off, asked him to come back, and then laid him off again. He is currently in the process of trying to find a new job that will hopefully be more stable than his previous one. My parents came down over Presidents Day weekend and we spent our time going to the parade of homes. There were some really nice houses. What it would be like, right? I guess I will just have to keep dreaming. School is going well. I am getting anxious for the semester to be over, then all that's left is student teaching! That's all the news I have for now. Until next time. :)

Our New Edition!

After months of Jade begging me to let him get a new truck, 

I finally gave in! His old car was beginning to give us more

problems than we wanted to deal with, so we figured instead

of putting more money into something that wasn't worth it

anymore we would trade it in and get something better. After 

looking hard for only a couple of days Jade found his perfect truck!

It is a 2005 Nissan Frontier with some nice upgrades. 

He is so excited, which makes me happy. We are looking

forward to all the fun we will have with our new truck!
