Our Little Getaway!

Last week was our relaxing week off! It was so nice, I'm sad its already over. We both took the entire week off and we really did need it. Here are some of my pics from the time we had off. We're really bad at remembering to take pics sometimes, but at least we took a few.

This is us just before we left the hotel room for Garth Brooks, it wasn't the first thing that happened that week but its my favorite pic!

For our anniversary, Cody had some surprises in store for me. We woke up, went on a hike to some hot springs (which we forgot the camera for, oops), went home and got ready, went to Trafalga to play like kids for a few hours, and then to dinner to get sushi, our favorite!!!!! It was so much fun and he did a great job at surprising me! He even had them advertise it was our anniversary!

Me pretending I know what I'm doing.

This was our hotel room in Vegas at the Hilton Grand Vacation Club. It was so nice!

We had a little elephant friend on our bed!

This is me all ready to go to see Garth!

Cody looks so cute in his "cowboy clothes"!

This is the drive home, sad but ready to go and see Vinnie!

Cody's Birthday and Camping Trip

Friday was Cody's birthday! He turned 24 and I am so big on birthdays, but to him it's just another day. I had to wake up to get my last morning of cadio workouts done, but I got up even earlier to make him some waffles. I took him his breakfast in bed then I made him open his presents. I got him two shirts and told him that was it, even though it wasn't. We both had to work that day which sucked but what do ya do.

After I got off, I came home, got my workout done, packed, got ready, and we headed out for a camping trip up Nebo Creek for memorial weekend. It took forever to get there it seemed like, but it was probably just cuz I wanted to get to my mom's where the whole fam was waiting to have pizza and chocolate cheesecake (per Cody's request).

When we got there the final gift me and my mom got Cody was sitting by the front door all wrapped up. It was a guitar case that he wanted!!!! Then we had dinner and stuck around to chat with the fam for a while. When it started to get dark we headed back up to the mountain.

It was pretty chilly Friday night, but I survived. Saturday was fun because we got to do what we wanted and relax. Shaelie and Aaron came up and visited for the day, it was fun to hang out since we never hardly see them. Saturday night we sat around the fire waiting for our dinners to cook. Then we watched movies in our camper and went to sleep with the heater on this time. Sunday we woke up and loaded up to come home. It was a good relaxing camping trip to start the summer off.

This is Cody opening his guitar case.

By the smile I think he likes it:)

Us on Saturday morning before our walk with Vinnie

He's a sweetheart

This is our little camper we got for $500. Its pretty ugly on the outside, but the inside is nice.

Cody was cooking breakfast for us on Saturday morning. Nothing's better than eggs, bacon, and toast in the mountains.

Vinnie loves to go camping cuz that means he gets to get super dirty and go exploring!!!!

This is the cute little cushions Cody sewed for us. They are so much nicer than the ones that were on there before.

When we went for our walk it was so pretty. This is what it looks like up there.

Easter with the Family

This year for Easter we spent it at my parents' house. Of course there was the usual big easter egg hunt for all the kids. Me, Cody, and my mom were in charge of filling the eggs with treats and hiding them all around the yard. We had a big family dinner that everyone enjoyed.

This is us having fun with all the kids. Cody looks so cute in this pic.This is my sister Shelly, Jon, Hallie, Lane, and Cole.

This is my brother Shane, Gage, and Ricky. Gracie jumped in the pic.

This is my sister Shannon, Brian, James, and Kate. For some reason my pic of Sheena and Gracie didn't work :(

This is Gage and Gracie

Lookin' for eggs.

Cole was having fun!

Katie wouldn't pick up any "boy" eggs, she only wanted "girl" eggs.

Ricky and James were the more agressive ones this year.

Hallie is getting so tall!

Grandp's and all the kids

He loves being with all his little ones.

Vinnie Winnie

We have the cutiest little boy ever! His name is Vinnie and he's a Yorkshire Terrier. We got him just after we were married and he makes it so we never have a dull moment at home.

He loves to play with his toys! Any stuff animal in sight instantly becomes his! And Cody can't help but try to win him a toy when we go to the store in the claw machines. This was after a long weekend at grandma's house playing with the kids. He came home and was really tired. So Cody decided he was gonna burry him in his toys! He blends right in!

He never fails to steal our spot on the bed if we move. He loves to have his toys sleep in bed with us and if they get knocked off he has to jump down and get them and put them back on the bed.

And he's a blanket thief!!
He likes to sleep in random places and in odd positions.
Him and dad were taking a nap together, they were playing too hard and needed a break.

He was hiding from dad!

For Halloween this past year we were a pirate family. Vinnie got to dress up like Jack Sparrow! He actually was fine with wearing it for a while.

We used to live in a basement appartment and didn't have any windows. Now that we have our own house he absolutely loves to sit on the back of the couch and look out the windows.

He really is the cutiest dog ever!!!!
