Michigan Trip

On May 14, 2009 my dear sweet grandmother passed away.  On May 28, our family flew up to Michigan for my grandmother's funeral, which was held on May 31. The room where the service was held was filled with all of my grandma's family and close friends whom she loved so much. Stories were told of my grandma, and we were all reminded of the good times we shared with her. She is greatly missed by us all. I find so much comfort in knowing that one day, we will meet again.

This is a picture of Me, Landon, Grandpa and my brother Ross before the funeral.

This is my mom's side of the family...minus my dad who is in Iraq.

We took a walk one day to the park in my grandparents neighborhood. Here is Landon and me on the merry go round! He had a lot of fun! I'm grateful he didn't barf! Haha!

On Monday, June 1, we celebrated my 24th birthday! There really isn't much to do where my grandparents live...and sadly it wasn't boating weather! We went to Big Boy's for lunch, and for dinner we ordered a pizza. I was sick on my birthday, and looked really gross, so I decided not to post that picture! The next day we went golfing! It was my first time ever golfing! I LOVED it! I did really bad though...110 points and we only did 9 holes! Haha! Here are a couple of pictures of Paul and me while golfing! 

Utah Trip

On May 22, Landon and I headed up to Utah with my friend Tiffany and her fiance Johnny. The next day, Tiffany and /i did some shopping at Tai Pan and Down East Outfitters! I love those stores! Then we went to my friend Evelyn's wedding reception.  Evelyn and I worked together at the call center when I lived in Provo. Here's me and Landon with cute little Evelun. She was such a beautiful bride. 

On our last day in Utah... I went into the basement,  where Tiffany and I were staying. I said to her "the plaid on your dress looks a lot like the plaid on my shorts." She looked at it closely and said, "It is the same plaid as my dress." Of course we had to take a picture! The funny thing is I got my shorts at JCrew and she got her dress at CVS pharmacy. We thought that was funny too! That just made me learn that JCrew is way too overpriced...our plaids were the exact same colors and quality! This also goes to show, best friends think alike!

NRA Gun Convention

On June 14, we headed down to Arizona for the weekend to go to a NRA Gun Convention and Banquet dinner. At the convention, we heard many speakers, John McCain was one of them. We also looked at many types of guns! It was basically Paul's paradise! Below are pictures of us and Sheen and JD (Paul's sister and husband) at the banquet.

Paul's 28th Birthday!

I know I say this every time I post, but once again...I'm very behind! On Monday, May 4, we celebrated Paul's 28 Birthday! I planned a little get together with our close friends at Lucille's BBQ @ The District. Here are some pictures from the evening!

Here's the birthday boy with our cute son!

This is our friends Jerry, Becca, and their daughter Isabel.

See all of the girls in this picture? We have all been friends since 6th/7th grade, and are still the best of friends! Here we all are with our men and our kiddies! From left to right (excluding us) Brian, Courtney, Baby Trevin, Ashley, Rickey, Tiffany and Johnny!

Here's our little family.

Here's us with our good friend Adam and his son Zack.  Adam is one of Paul's best friends.

Here we are again!

This is us with the Shaffers and their new baby Eden. Nate is Paul's best friend. For those of you who don't know, Paul and Nate met us girls on the same weekend...they were living in Utah, going to school. Kim and I lived in Vegas...they came and visited us on weekends, and we would visit them. Long story short, Kim and Nate got married, then Paul and I got married. I know a lot of you have seen pics of all of us on my blog before, but I thought I'd share the story of how we all met. =)

This is my friend Courtney and her husband  Brian, along with her sister Lindsay, and her mom Gay, and baby Kai. Courtney is now serving in Iraq for 6 months in the Air Force. Thank you so much to everyone who came and for all of the gifts!
