Home Sweet Home






Well my little sister is not so little anymore. She is 21 and I am so proud of her! She is making great choices in her life and although it takes work she is reaching for the stars and I know she will make it! I went home to be there for her birthday and was able to see David and Nathan's games, catch Jonathan in a few pictures and even watch Mandy eat escargo. I let a few cop jokes slip out to Doug at dinner he promised he wouldn't hurt me and Tiff says he doesn't care and it was funny but I may pay for that one day. Love you Doug! :) Mom and dad I love you so much thanks for always being willing to bring me home and deal with me so often! Little Nathan, Mandy and I convinced Mom to play the guitar with us on guitar hero and she was pretty good! She said she liked it and now that Nathan showed her how to turn it on upstairs she might go up and play it! Hehe Watch out Dad, you're next!! Dad you even stayed awake for all of Twilight haha I miss you all!

I know it's March but....

Well since Halloween we have done a lot! We went home to CA for the holidays and had a blast! We swam about every day in the heated pool played guitar hero all night and trying out the flowrider (that thing on cruise ships, it's harder than it looks, so i'm told) and of course our favorite tradition of popping new years balloons for fortunes and secret gifts. Oh yeah and we can't forget our own version of pictionary......with the blue mosque, chandler bing and topiary. HAHA good memories! Thanks to Jamie for taking our pictures as well we love them!

Nathan is back in school and so am I! I'm taking a photography class and will continue with that and some psychology for fun. Nathan is finally done with anatomy and on to things like neuro. After the holidays we came home and had Nathan's birthday! He requested a cake he had as a kid, he was a big Notre Dame fan growing up hence the cake. We also celebrated our 4 year anniversary! Wow! I can't believe it! We went to St. George to stay in a cute bed and breakfast......haha. When we researched looking for a place to eat Nathan found this one online called the Painted Pony and the first thing that came up was a picture of the owners. The guys last name was Richards and the girls was PACE!! Can you believe it??? Fate I tell you, so we ate there and it was delicious! Long story short, we both FROZE all night in the little house! We were able to laugh about it by about 3am when I said lets just go home but of course we didn't. We learned that we both enjoy hotels with a phone to pick up for room service of any kind and individual thermostats in each room that we can decide the temp of the room. hahahaha And most recently Nathan sprained his ankle playing basketball, nope not church ball, school pick-up. These last few pics are the ones Jamie did.
