Jake's Mayan days....

Jake is second from the left. Look at his cute little body. haha! By the time I started working at the Mayan the divers stopped wearing the loincloths and the headresses. :( Too bad!

Our most recent trip to Moab

We recently drove down to Moab to see Jake's family. On the way there our car broke down. Turns out it was the alternator and it cost us $500 in total. That is an expensive fix we were not expecting! :( The trip down there was pretty crazy since he has 7 sister and three brothers plus all their kids. Mercedes was desperate to be saved from all the little kids molling her to death, haha. Above picture: Jake's brother John (left), me (center) and Jake's neice Izzy (right).

Mercedes had fun rolling around in the leaves. She's so cute!

Jake with his three brothers: Daniel, Jeff and John. They look NOTHING alike! haha.

The 4th of July

On the 4th we spent the day at the pool with Kit and Nat and then went to Cal and Torie's house to watch fireworks! It was such a fun night with the family.

We got some fun pictures with Sadie boo next to the flag!

Our Home

This is our home. We have lived here a year and two months now and we love it!

This is our new flat screen TV that we bought just last month. It definitely makes the living room more spacious.

This is the master bedroom!

One-year anniversary in Mexico!

We went to Mexico in July with our good friends Kit & Nat. The timing was perfect because it also happened to be our one-year anniversary! We spent a full day shopping in both Playa Del Carmen and Cancun.
We also spent a day seeing all the Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza and then had an amazing day snorkeling, cliff diving, and tubing down the lazy river at Xel-Ha. It was such an amazing trip despite the humidity. :)

Meet Mercedes

This is Mercedes or Sadie for short. For now she is our one and only baby! We got her in September, just after we got married. She turned one year old on July 17, 2007. She has the cutest little personality and she is just the sweetest little thing. I cannot imagine life without her. I look forward to coming home because she always comes running and is so excited! Anytime someone cries, she is the first one to come running to see what's wrong and to give loves. She's darling and is just to die for. :)

Me and my love...
