Our Fun Family Home Evening!!

Okay, so I'll admit that I'm a bit of a slacker when it comes to updating the blog, but we have been so busy!! We drove out to Utah about a week and a half ago to see Alax's parents and to visit my sister and it was soooo much fun! While we were there Alax and I stopped at D.I. and found a left handed set of golf clubs for me, because I didn't have one. That night we went golfing for my very first time and had a lot of fun! Since the trip, I haven't really touched the clubs but decided to give it a try again...in our living room! Alax set up a backdrop made of a blanket tied to two chairs and he helped me learn how to chip the ball against the blanket :) Other than a few out of control balls I think I did pretty good, and nothing ended up broken so maybe my next practice session will be on the green :)



My crazy cool new set of clubs :)

4th of July

Yesterday was such a fun day. Alax and I just kinda hung out around home all morning and in the afternoon went to my parents to celebrate the 4th. My mom decorated so cute and had soooooo much good food!! My dad smoked some tri-tip and cooked chicken and we all just hung out all day. My parents invited a friend from my dad's work and his family over, and we went down to the creek and panned for gold, and went and saw the goats. It was so much fun!! Then, we enjoyed the fireworks later that night. It's so nice to have both of our families so close to us so we can do stuff!!

Anniversary

Today is our 6 month anniversary!!! After school tonight, I stopped at the store and got us a little cheesecake and some candles and lit them before I walked up the stairs :) I can't believe it's been 6 months already, but at the same time it feels a whole lot longer than that (that's a good thing) haha!! I feel so lucky to be married to such an amazing man, and am looking forward to manyyyyyyy more years to come ;)



We lit the candles again for a not-so-quick picture with Alax's phone. It was hard to fit us AND the cheesecake in the picture. haha
Alax was soooo ready to be done after about the 15th try :) I really am turning into my mom.....(also, a good thing)
