happy birthday CRUZ!

I love you and I hope that you have a wonderful and the most FESTIVE birthday ever!!!

Still in LOVE

We had such a fun time. I got off work at 4, and since Cruz had to work until 7... I decided to put together a little surprise. I made a picnic dinner. BBQ chicken, grilled veggies, and arepas. Then when he got home I sneaked into the car and put everything into the trunk. Lucky, he'd called on his way home from work, so I knew he was coming. But he also said he wanted to go up the canyon for a ride. (Can you say perfect?!!) So, we did exactly that. We drove up Provo canyon, and I said let's walk around Timpanogos park. So, we pulled into the parking lot... and I told him I had a surprise. I opened the trunk, so he could see that I had packed a dinner. We then found "our" table. Set up for the dinner. Then this funny lady said "I hope you are at least newlyweds." We laughed and said... well, kinda. She then said "After 13 years, my husband would never do that." It was an interesting thing to think about. Both Cruz and I said that we hope in 13 years we celebrate in the exact same way. Love ya babe.

Welcome HOME!!!

They are back! My Mom and Dad returned from their mission in Iceland. They have been home since June 2nd. They got in at 11:20-ish p.m., so not all the kid-os could stay up so late to greet them at the air-port... But we were all so happy to see them. My cute Mom cried, and we all hugged. They are home a little earlier than planed, due to some health concerns. They served a fantastic mission, and the length is not what is important. I am so proud of them. They are such good examples to our family. I can't wait to serve a mission with my LOVE. It is going to be just as great. I love hearing my Mom tell about the Elders. I can tell she loved every minute of helping them, they were both sad and yet excited to come home (just like every missionary should be.) Love you Mom and Dad.

Keep Calm... The theme of the last week.

Sometimes things are just a little crazy. This last week was one of those weeks.

I felt more like...

 Now Panic and Freak Out

But for the most part...I have been able to just carry on.

I think the graphic design on the poster is fantastic, and lovely.

I love all the spoofs that have come with the design of this poster as well.

Here is the history about the poster... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keep_Calm_and_Carry_On

Hope you had a good week, and got to play in the sunshine.
