All Over the Place

    I have been so busy the past month. So where do I begin. I'll start with pictures!!

Kyle's Mission Call Opening!!
Kyle is 19, has been ready to serve a mission for quite some time now, but he wanted to have a year in college to get his scholarship locked in. First things first, every Thursday evening we have a family conference call. Well we heard that Kyle got his call on a Thursday, well time to open that sucker and know where he's going. We have been guessing ever since he turned his papers in. Jason and I guessed Florida or Australia.
As we were getting ready for some of the people to get onto Skype, the others were on the phone. Jason and I used both, we wanted to see everyone and hear Kyle over the phone, since it's clearer. We had to use my lap top, which is in bad shape! I have been using Jason's for so long now and he has been using the iPad. We switch here and there, but once I get my new laptop from my parents, I will be using that a lot more!! My parents and my deal was if any of their children go to any BYU school, or Southern Virginia University school then he buys us a laptop. Since I had bought my own laptop back in summer 2009 and since I'm going to BYUI my parents owes me a laptop. Jason and I did some research and we figured out that we want a Macbook Pro. Jason is now jealous and wanted dad to buy him one too. Someday some other time, but Jason sure does want a trip to California more than the laptop to visit family and friends. We both need a trip to California real soon. We will possibly for Thanksgiving, but we shall see, because we will be getting back from a cruise earlier in that month.
                           
 Back onto the story off Kyle!! So we have been Skyping, telling us where he is going and all, and a video will tell you where he is going.
By the way, Kyle opened the envelope with a knife from Brazil.
And well, he's going to Brazil!! Leaves in August 14th. And most of us will already be there, because we will be going to Utah for the USANA conference. Perfect!!

Weekend in Utah!!
Jason and I stopped by in Ogden, Utah to visit with Natalie and her family. Gave our nieces and nephew their Easter egg with candy.
Jason and I took Dave and Mistie out to Red Lobster. Our first time, including our first time eating a lobster. We got to pick the sucker out, it was 3 pounds, 21 years old. Expensive, but TOTALLY worth every penny!! We are glad that we got to spend it with our good friends Dave and Mistie. On our way to Dave and Mistie's place we got to listen to "22" by Taylor Swift dancing around and having fun. When Jason and I see in the other car where Dave and Mistie are in, listening and dancing to the same song. We spend the night over at their place, and honestly it was comfortable on the floor, I loved it.
Got to go over to the Color Festival in Spanish Fork, Utah!! All white!! clean and pure!!
 Then we got over to the festival, so colorful and bright. Glad I got to spend it with my husband!!



Including spending it with our friends.








Easter Sunday!!
So Jason and I are making up some traditions, and we will have a ton in our life that our children will enjoy and bring it to their lives too. This is another thing that we will enhance in our lives for Easter Sunday.
Step 1: Having husband and children sleeping as I do all the string work and will end at the bedside.
 Step 2: The string is all over the house
Step 3: Jason and the children will wake up and gather up the string to find their baskets.
HE'S SO HANDSOME!! Can't wait until we have kids so we could share it with them.
 This is my small basket, I couldn't help but give myself some treats too, so I could snack on them during church and through out the week. YUM!!
He first started upstairs, then downstairs, then back upstairs in our office is where his basket was hidden.

Jason and his basket, Les Miserables. HE LOVES IT!! <3 I knew he would too. I'm actually pretty good at giving him gifts!

At church, my co-partner couldn't make it, so she asked if Jason could come for her and be my co-partner for the day. YAY!! But I taught.
 These were their treats
My primary kids!! <3
 They wanted to do a silly picture, so I let them do it :)

After church, Jason and I listened to Les Miserables on the CD until dinner over at our sister in-law's family's Easter dinner.


EASTER 2013

Some of the eggs given to our niece and nephews; from my side and Jason's side <3

Babysitting Jaxon and Elise!
I just love spending time with these two. Jason and I got to babysit them as Scott and Nicole went on a date. And let me tell you, we all had fun. Jason was spending time with Jaxon more as I spent time with Elise. When Scott isn't around, Jaxon is attached to Jason or any other guy like his grandpas and uncles. It's great seeing Jason with Jaxon, and it's crazy when I mix those names up too many times. Jason and I at the end of the evening got to see Les Miserables for the first time!! We had watched the non musical one and honestly I got bored and didn't want to watch it anymore. This new one that just came out, I love!! Including the actors and actresses! Jason is hoping to make it as Jean ValJean or Marius. Which by the way, the actor who plays Marius is very very sexy!!










Jason is going to be a wonderful dad someday <3

Other thoughts!
1) Jason and I are officially going on a cruise beginning of November. Got it all paid for! Now for all the exciting things that we will be doing. We were thinking, a long zip line, swimming with dolphins and scuba diving. Now Jason already has his licence, and I'm trying to decided if I should too. I have always said that I've got to do everything at least once. So I might just suck it up and overcome my fear of deep water. Yeah I know, i'm a swimmer too. Every time during a meet when a pool is deeper than..9 feet I swim as fast as I could to get out of the water. Hey it's been great motivation. Now a days, I hate being in the water that I can't see underneath me. it just sucks, cause I love the water and all kinda of water sports and activities. So I think I might as well be scuba certified!!

2) Spring Semester had just started this week, not too bad. Math class, English class that's online, a study kind of class, Book of Mormon-with the teacher that I took last semester with Jason, he's great! Brother Pyper. I surely recommend him, including when you want a laugh and want to listen to other wonderful stories. Then Science Foundations. Not such a bad semester this year. Jason has a lot of his major classes now, and he likes it, except with it being in the same classroom for hours! 

3) Having Jason gone for a weekend, including when it's very warm outside SUCKS!! I miss my husband and once he gets home we will have to have a TON of catching up to do. It was sweet of him calling me up when he got to his hotel this evening and just before he went to bed. He is leaving quite early the next day to make it back in time for stake conference.
