Now that I am done with school and making money again Im excited to start towards some new goals in 2010 which are:

---

Travel, Travel, Travel! Anywhere & Everywhere--Starting with Seattle in June!

-

Become an expert on my new sewing machine

-

Work at a job I love--Im starting to understand how important this one really is!!!

-

Pay off my school loan--such a bugger :(

-

Save, Save, Save--Saving money is always a MUST! :)

-

And although this is going to contradict this list I want to live more in the moment and stop always looking toward the future. :)

What are your goals for 2010???

You & Me Babe!

July 22nd marks 3 years since our wedding day!--

It feels like I've never known a day in this life without Jake and in the same breath it feel like time just flew by. I guess that's the way it feels when you marry your soulmate.

3 years ago was one of the happiest days of my life & still today I've never felt happier or more in love!

Happy Anniversary Babe!

You make me feel loved & appreciated every single day!

I love you! xoxo

More Lake Powell Pics...

I took these pics on our way to the Marina to watch fireworks. The sunset was BEAUTIFUL!

The fireworks were so pretty!!! Isn't this a great shot?

Jake and our daughter... he he

Our little family. Even Sadie was there to play with us!

Here is 60 foot the houseboat we stayed on.

This was as high as my guts would allow me to jump...lame I know ;)
Jake is braver than me! Here is his dive in a sequence of photos... CLICK TO ENLARGE!

Shelley, Tiffany and Me

Lake Powell

Over the 4th of July weekend we went down to Lake Powell with Jake's good friend Chad. It was my first time to Powell and my first time staying on a houseboat, which was enormous! We had such a blast!

We went down to the Marina to watch fireworks. Check out this houseboat with the helicopter on top. Crazy! :)

Mercedes and Yoda zonked after a long fun day in the water!

This is Chad, Jake's friend that owns the houseboat. He is so fun and makes sure everyone is having an awesome time.

THIS IS ASPEN...

I absolutely fell in love with her this weekend. She has these crystal blue eyes that look just like Jake's and she followed me around everywhere. I would only be so lucky to have a daughter exactly like her. Needless to say, she made me SO baby hungry!!!

Easter Dress up!

On Easter we all decided to dress up and see if everyone could guess who we were. Me and Tiffany dressed up as my grandparents. I was my grandpa and Tiffany was my grandma. The polka dotted dress gave her the funniest pooch in the front from the pleates! haha Don't ask me what is going on with my face. I was trying to do my grandpas closed mouth smile. haha

Jen and my grandma then came out dressed as Ellie and Ally. Jen looks like Angelica from Rugrats. The diaper kills me!! Her tiny little legs. haha






Last but not lease Jake and Joey came out dressed as two women and I am officially scarred! Jake creeped me out so bad! He was totally digging himself as a girl. haha Joey with his short gray wig is priceless!

Jake and Broox.

Tiffany and Me!

Ally Bean ate a marker and there is no denying it! :)

Spoof...

I saw this Twilight Spoof awhile back and I just have to share it with all of you! Most of it is hilarious but the last minute and a half is pretty dumb. Enjoy!



My favorite parts:
1. "I know what you are" "Say it out loud" "You're a gay"
2. "Get on my back, I'm going to take you for a vampire ride "
3. "Im not saying you look fat, Im saying you feel fat"
4. "This is what I am in the light" (just wait for it!)
5. "Everything about me invites you in, my voice! My face!

Our new car!

We finally got everything taken care of with the car situation. We bought our new car a few days ago and were really excited to return our fish bowl of a rental car. ;) We've wanted an Acura TL for awhile now and we are really happy we found what we wanted...just in the nick of time! :) Here are a couple pictures. Love you all!
