MIA.

I've been gone from the blog for a while....but part of it has been because we've been so busy.

First with my birthday.....

 

My parents took me to Ruby River, birthdays don't get much better than celebrating with a yummy steak.

And then Hawaii...where we had LOTS of fun!

We had a fun at the beach. We didn't get to go as much as I would have liked thanks to the rainy weather, but the time we did spend there was great!

It was really rainy while we were there so sadly I wasn't my normal picture taking self and didn't get my camera out as much as I should have, because I was too busy avoiding the rain or too embarrassed to take pictures with my awful rain-ruined hair. Luckily I did get some though. We went hiking on one of the days and were hoping to get to swim below some waterfalls, but it had been so rainy that they were overflooded and not swimmable. We missed out on seeing some too, because they had closed off a section of our hike because of all the water, but it was still really fun and BEAUTIFUL. It was probably the most gorgeous hike and drive I have ever been on.

 I think Tyler's favorite part of the trip was this:

We got to drive around the island in this beautiful car. A 2011 Chevy Camaro...it was so new we were the first ones to rent it. It was lots of fun although we never really got to let it loose, because of slow speed limits and lots of traffic...it was pretty fun to peel out in though!


And then Vegas...

 Leave it to us to have a random picture with a San Diego State fan. Kawai Leonard's Aunt to be exact. Even though we lost we stayed after the game and watched the trophy be presented to San Diego State and watched them cut down the net. Out of the corner of my eye I saw this lady taking candid pictures of us. I looked over at her and she just started laughing and said, "ooooh yes!" Next thing we knew it she was headed up to talk to us. As soon as she realized Nate was related to Jackson Emery she was buddied right up and wanted a picture with the boys. She told us that she is fine with losing to anyone, but BYU. It kills her to lose to BYU so I guess it was a good thing for her they won.

We had a fun day on the strip and shockingly I didn't spend a dime. I learned though not to let the husband gamble...he comes home with empty pockets!


And Denver....

Sadly my husband is on his way to Denver to watch the Cougars play right now and I didn't get to go :( Its not really easy to pick up and leave your job again after being gone a week and half! Hopefully they play hard and win so it makes me missing my husband worth it! He deserves to see a good few games!
