Officially moved in!!

We have now been living in our house for like a week and a half!! LOVE IT!! We still need to paint one of the bathrooms and our two spare bedrooms but they are just being painted by our preference, it's not like we NEED to paint them! Still putting up all the pics and everything to make it feel like home. Bentley is still a little sketch and follows us from room to room but I think he is adjusting pretty well to his new place. . . We will be having a housewarming party sometime in the next month and I will be putting updated pics up soon!!

2 Days and Counting!!

Skoot and I are so excited to be moving into our dream home!! We are just waiting to close on Tuesday!! Hopefully we'll have the keys by wednesday so we can start moving everything before the weekend!Funny that I had no idea we'd have to close during normal bank hours, lol oops. . . I had to ask to leave work early on tuesday at the last minute, good thing my boss loves me so much ;) Our Apartment is almost completely packed and Bentley doesn't know what to do with himself because there are boxes all over the place!!! Yay, We are so excited!!!! 2 days and counting!!!

Sunday Swim Commencement!

YAY! we are finally getting some Authentic June Weather! As a result: Sunday Swim is back in comission!! Basically what happens is every sunday we go swimming at our apartment complex, and we usually invite a few friends to come hang out. Afterwards we continue with our game night tradition!! I don't have any pics from yesterday but these are a few from a couple sundays back!Scott,Andy, Alex,Margery and her fam, and Marissa and Joe were there to help us kick of the official SS of the season!!! What will we do to keep the tradition alive when we move???? Hopefully someone can help us build on it!!

Birthday Bash of the century

So, my Birthday is coming around the corner again and I am not quite sure what theme I should go with this year. Last year was probably the most kick ass party ever(right in first place with skoot's Luau a few years back). . .I need some ideas! Anyone have some? This pic is of me and my cousin Tony from my party last year. It was such a blast! It was a mardi Gras theme and we had so much fun making the masks, they actually turned out way awesome too!!

Family is supposed to be forever? right?

So, I just recently went to a family gathering(we've actually been invited to one!) and It made me realize how torn my family is ever since my abuelita passed away. . I have so many cousins that I never get to see because our family is feuding over something that happened so long ago! I feel that we are caught in a battle that we aren't even fighting.I have no idea what they are even fighting for or who chose my side for me! If my abuelita's kids want to fight over something then let them but they shouldn't drag all of us cousins into it too. It is ridiculous that I cannot invite my whole family to our WEDDING even without some people saying that they will not go if certain people are there. Can't they grow up and realize that you are there to show your support to your family, can't they be adults and put away their differences for one day? Of Course not! I have a cousin that didn't show up to my weddding because she said I didn't go to hers. . . Pretty sure I was MAYBE 10 when she got married!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!? And her mom can look right through me and walk right past me when she sees me. . . The only one in that little fam that I can say still realizes what a family is would be my uncle. Regardless of what is going on, he will still come and say hi and give us hugs to show that he still cares. . . Some families need to realize that fighting over something trivial is not worth a whole lifetime of loneliness

New House Here We Come!

We have Found a House!!!! Skoot and I are in the process of buying our first house! We are so excited! It is in West Jordan, and I absolutely love it! It's actually kinda funny because we found this house on the first day we started looking. It was seriously like the 5th house we had looked at. Our Realtor was saying that he had seen very few people get excited about any house like I did with this one . . Of course to make everyone happy(and Satisfied) we went and looked at about fifteen more. We eventually had to decide between this one or one in Herriman. It was a really hard decision because each house had some things we liked that the other house didn't. . . but our feelings were mutual that this was our dream home!!! It is such an amazing thing to be able to say that I am accomplished enough to buy a house at the age of 21! We close on July 14th!!!

Skoot's Birthday BBQ

So, for Skoot's birthday this year we decided to have a chill BBQ(He thinks that 23 is not worth celebrating)and we had a really great turnout, Skoot didn't even think he knew that many people!! We made so much food!! Lol, shis-kabobs, burgers and hot dogs, not to mention a ton of salads and fruit and cake and just a whole lot of food delightfulness! It rained most of the day but luckily we were at his parents' house and they have a big covered deck so it wasn't a huge party spoiler. . . lol I did get a little mad that I was stuck grilling the whole time, hence the pic of me looking pissed! I must say though, for it being my first time on the grill, I sure did a damn good job! Special thanks to marissa for being my grill mate!
