First Check Off The List

We did our first activity of the Spring/Summer. Devin's old friend Brad Taylor came to town so of course we had to do something fun!

Sheehan, me, Katie Pezzillo, Devin, and Julianne started our afternoon collecting food to barbecue. We had a plan to go to Bridal Veil Falls in Provo Canyon, do the short hike, barbecue us some food, and watch a movie. It was so much fun!

Devin and Julianne

It was like hanging out with the Bear Valley ward youth again. haha Of course, the most important thing, I made my first smore of 2011. It was epic...and delicious..... :)

Sheehan couldn't help but be a boy and get all scratched. He was sliding/traversing down the mountain, off the trail, down the shale and of course he was sliding too fast and tried to slow down, grabbed a rock and this happened.

This is the scene of the crime.

Here See all the loose rocks and how steep it is... I told him not to do it...Obviously...he didn't listen.

A picture of Sheehan at his new work. REIC. He loves it and is still SO happy, despite the not so smiley face he is sporting in this picture.

We're getting started on the Summer checklist. I am so excited for the warm weather to come and for the family vacations coming up! Next stop, YOSEMITE!!!

Time Flies When You're Having Fun!!

Spring is here and we are ready for it!!! I can't remember the last time I was so excited for Spring and Summer. I have some serious plans for Summer.... Sheehan and I babysat for my cousin who gave us some VIP and Platinum passes for Seven Peaks, Trafalga, and much more!! I am so looking forward to using those passes ALL the TIME!!! Additionally here is our to-do list for our Utah outings (think of it as our "bucket" list for the summer of 2011): Timpanogos Caves with camping and eating a smore (yeah a smore is THAT important), Hiking the Y, summer festivals, This is the Place, the Living Planet Aquarium, Alpine Slides, a weekend in Park City, Olympic sites, tube down the Provo river, and last but not least...KEYS ON MAIN FOR MY 21st B-DAY on 7-11!!!! I can't wait for that...

Sheehan and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary! We can hardly believe how quickly time flies. We enjoyed our Saturday off and just lounged around all day. No obligations to anything or anyone. It was so nice to relax! I cooked and baked to my heart's desire. Sheehan gave me some very well thought out gifts. It was so sweet! I could hardly believe it! He was listening!!! He gave me a giant bottle of my favorite perfume that I had ran out of months ago.The box alone is one of my favorite things. It was really hard for me to throw away the box and part with the cheetah print. To go along with that he gave me a gift certificate to go get a manicure and pedicure! He made me a very happy wife!

Sheehan got a new job at Real Estate Investors Club and we LOVE IT!!! It is perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Sheehan is so happy, loves what he does, and what he is learning.

My parents came to visit for a quick weekend trip in March.

It was so nice to visit with my niece, little Kiley girl and see her so grown up! I miss being so close to my family but it's nice to have grandma, my brother, and cousins still close by.

My parents treated us to dinner at Tucano's and it was fantastic as usual!!

Devin and his fiance Julianne

I love that place. It is a tough pick between Tucano's and Buca Di Beppo's for my favorite restaurant.

The chinchillas are fat and happy. Do they have a sweet life or what? If I could be any animal, I'd want to be one of my chinchillas. Milly had another baby boy chinchilla on March 4th. We are giving him to Devin and Julianne. They named him Bruce...Baby Bruce. :)

He is about 3 weeks old in this picture. He is a cutie.

He looks just like Milly with his cute gray coloring. (That's the momma, Milly)

We've been to the orchestra with Grandma and Norm, spent many nights hanging out with Devin and Julianne, visited with friends, made many cookie batches :), enjoyed a wonderful conference weekend, changed jobs, and enjoyed every single day. We are looking forward to this coming year. I've been amazed at how much has changed since we moved to Provo June of 2010. We knew this was the place we needed to be and we have been so blessed in such a short time.
