Finally an update!!! WARNING: this post is HUGE!!!

2009-09-28T20:12:00.010-05:00

Wow!! I haven't updated in a long time!! Here is what has happened in our life since Martha's Vineyard:

My Birthday:

The night before my birthday my friend Kelsie brought this adorable mini cake she made to work for me- it was so yummy!!

on my birthday Katie, MAcie, and Kelsie took me to lunch to Red Robin and then we shopped and came back to my house and watched 17 again. It was a wonderful day!! Macie made it through most of it until right before Jason got home.

Katie made these 21 adorable zebra and hot pink cupcakes!! We ate them when JAson got home from work..

Katie, Jake, and Macie gave me this super cute zebra jacket :) My parents sent me a package with a new purse, wallet, and my favorite treats. Jason got me a cricut and a zebra case to put the cricut in.

My Birthday was wonderful and right as it was ending at midnight- I got a visitor!!! Kandyce!!!

While Kandyce was in Boston with me we went to the mansions in Rhode Island and went on a tour of the inside of one..

We also went on the "T" (subway) to the city and went on a duck tour. (Vanessa, me, Kandyce)

Us at Fenway Park- we tried to get in, but couldn't. It was still way cool though!

BOSTON: from the harbor- one of the most beautiful places I have seen!!!

NEW YORK:

On the Sunday that Kandyce was with us we took her to New YOrk- We saw this car that was completly covered with bird poop.. I of course had to take a picture. A lady stopped while I took the picture. I thought she just didn't walk infront of us to be polite but it turns out it was her car and she waited while I took a picture!!! HAHAHAHAHA

Jase, Me, Kandyce, Vanessa, Chad and Chloe infront of the statue of libery

Time Square

BOATING!!!!!

One of Jason's favorite things to do is go boating. We went a few days after he got home and we had a blast!!

MY SUPER HOT, AMAZING, OH SO TALENTED MAN!! (caption for Rob)

Macie and Jake

Jason trying to help me in the choppy water haha

My Dad's 50th Birthday:

Jason had the brilliant idea to put my dad's birthday present inside of this pinata.

We blind folded him, spun him, and let him have at it-
VERY ENTERTAINING!!!

Happy birthday dad!!

Trying a new hobby: Fly Fishing

We went fly fishing with my dad and brother in law for the first time. We had a great time!!

Mike showin us how it is done-

Dad lookin like a pro with all his gear-

Jase, Me, Mike

Brooke's first dance:

My youngest sister Brooke turned 16 over the summer and went to her first Homecoming dance- You look beautiful Boo!

Nachelle's birthday:

My oldest sister just had a birthday-

Drew playing with Matt

I made this for Nachelle's birthday- I love my cricut and am excited to make many more crafts :)

We are doing great and hope you all are doing well as well!!!!

Martha's Vineyard

2009-08-10T12:13:00.006-05:00

On Sunday we went to Martha's Vineyard with our friends the Weeks. We went to a little Branch on Cape Cod and then took the ferry across the ocean to the Island. We rented Scooters and rode around the Island all day and had an absolute BLAST!!! We ate at a place called Sharky's Cantina which if we ever go back we will for sure go back! Jase and I forgot our sunglasses so the scooter place gave us these super awesome yellow ones to wear- It was so so so much fun to get away and just play and relax!

These cute little houses were all over the Island- they call them Gingerbread houses and they are all brightly painted

We walked a long the a beach to get out to this lighthouse-

Brock is obsessed with ice cream more than me!! Which is totally fine because I can eat Ice cream anytime :) We stopped and tried some homemade Ice Cream which was amazing they had tons of flavors and they even had this kind with real lobster chunks! EW! we didn't try it- my favorite kind was a strawberry cheese cake kind with huge chunks of cheese cake with graham cracker crust and strawberries. Jason really like the raspberry sorbet of course! :)

Gettin ready to go on our adventure- Jase, Me, Kelsie, Brock

Brock, Kelsie, Me, Jase

This was so neat!! We went in a little fudge shop and they were making huge rolls of fudge- it was amazing!!

We had a wonderful Day on the Island and I am so grateful we were able to go!!!

Joseph Smith's Birthplace: Vermont

2009-08-07T11:36:00.002-05:00

On Sunday we took a little road trip- (3 Hours there- 3 Hours back) To Vermont to see the birthplace of Joseph Smith. The car ride was great we rode with Brock and Kelsie and we probably laughed 5.5 hours of the 6 hours in the car! The monument was really neat! I love having all these neat experiences with my sweet sweet hubby!! We are so blessed and I am so thankful for our amazing life!

Inside the visitor's center

The monument outside- every foot represents a year of Joseph's life.

This is the front step of the house that Joseph was born in

2009-08-04T19:19:00.003-05:00

I love carmel apples!!! Every time we go to Park City or other trips I have to get one and it is always a highlight!!! My family went to Park City for the 24th and sent us these apples all the way to Boston! I got them at work and was so so so excited!!! Thanks so much mom and dad! Your the best- thanks for always thinking of us and sending all the fun care packages!! We love you!!

A little pick me up.....

2009-08-03T17:22:00.002-05:00

I was looking on my friend's blog and she had this video- it totally picked me up, added a little boost to my day. It kinda sums up how I have been feeling I am so thankful for the gospel in my life and without the Lord and the power of prayer and the Priesthood I wouldn't be able to make it. I hope you enjoy this song and video :)

We had the most amazing 4th ever!!! We love Boston and had a great time celebrating here!! The day started of with Jase going to work at 9am and me going to a parade with a couple of my friends. After the parade us girls had a bbq by our apartments. We painted our faces and got all ready for our hubbies to get done working. The boys got off around 5:30 and we met them out at a beach called Hull Beach. It is so beautiful on the coast and we are so blessed to be able to live out here. We ate Chipotle and played in the water and on the beach. Fireworks started going off all along the beach!!! It was so neat! We then went and got some amazing ice cream in the little town and headed to another beach to watch the fireworks over the harbor- Neil Diamond sang to the fireworks and it was fun listening to him!! I am so glad that Jason got off early and that I was able to spend this holiday with him in this amazing city and with our friends!! (While we were on the beach our camera ran out of batteries, so I will have to put up the other pictures when I get them from Katie)

NEW YORK CITY!!!!

2009-06-23T14:43:00.002-05:00

We went to New York on Sunday for father's day- it was Jason's first time!! We had a blast- we went with our friends Jake, Katie, and Macie Bell, Brock and Kelsi Weeks, Isaac, Kyle, Quinn, Stuart, and Andrew. We had so much fun!!! Here are a bunch of the pictures :)

What to do with a rainy day......

2009-06-19T11:52:00.006-05:00

What else: PLAY IN IT!!!!! This morning it was seriously pouring rain! (it still is) But all the office went to have a great game day. There were different stations, basketball, ultimate Frisbee, an obstacle course, and steal the flag. The office girls were in charge of keeping track of score and reffing haha I was over basketball- funny huh? Good thing the boys kept track of there own score I just wrote it down :) There were nine different teams and they rotated through the stations a couple times. We were seriously drench- the pictures don't really show how wet we were very good, but we were very very soaked!! At the very end they played a water balloon game called civil war that Jason absolutely loves! We played it last year and he loves it. Of course the game was organized at first, but it always turns out as a massive balloon fight- it was very fun!! And now it is off to work for another fun filled day :) Enjoy the pictures-

Realize your Blessings

2009-06-16T11:28:00.007-05:00

We had a wonderful Sunday as usual. Church was great the talks were about realizing your blessings, and seeing trials as blessings- always good to hear! We are so blessed and have such a wonderful life filled with great experiences and people!! We went to Bunker Hill after church. I am loving all the neat things we get to see out here in Boston!! Enjoy the pictures :)

This is the Bunker hill monument. Thanks Brock for the cool picture!!

Jase Walking up the Monument- there were 300 steps to the top- good work out!!!

Finally at the top- the view was unbelievable- so beautiful!!

This was at the top- it went all the way to the bottom- kinda scary to walk over!!!

One of the views from the top of the monument

Another gorgeous view of the city

The staircase- it spiraled the whole way up

OK This is pretty cool- This is how we roll in B-town. This is a toilet- you put a quarter in to use it and then it opens like an elevator. There is music playing inside, and if you are in there longer than 20 minutes- too bad the doors will open cuz thats all the time you get!

This was an active battle ship that was pulled into the harbor, but they weren't doing tours when we got there, Jake, Brock, and Jason being the guys they are talked to this sailor about giving us our own little tour. We didn't get the tour but they had a good chat! :)

We had another great adventure and are looking forward to many more to come soon!!

Boston Baby(s)!!!

2009-06-08T13:55:00.007-05:00

We Are loving it here in Boston!!!! Who would have thought that we could drive about a half hour away and be at a battleship, or the ocean, or a really cool fort?!!! WELCOME TO BOSTON BABY!!!!!! We had fun on Sunday- we went to the Salem battleship, Paul Revere Fort, and to the Beach that looked on the city across the ocean- it was beautiful!!! We also found out that our friends Ty and Staci are expecting their first baby, our other friends Jess and Jared are having a little girl, and that Jase and I are going to have another niece or nephew!!! Congrats guys!!! We are so excited for you all!

Babysitting Macie

2009-06-05T11:29:00.003-05:00

What a great morning!! Jason and I were able to babysit Macie while Katie and Jake went on a little bike ride. She was so fun and we really enjoyed playing with her!!

Goodbye Mazda-

2009-06-05T11:26:00.002-05:00

Well we sold my baby- the awesome Mazda 6. I loved this car and I am really going to miss it!! She went to a great home (my mom). I am excited for my mom to have a sweet new ride- but I am really going to miss this nice car!!!!

Summer time = Craft time!!

2009-06-03T11:05:00.005-05:00

-This is the new craft- I am making one for each month-

I Love the summer time- I get to scrap book, cook, hangout, lay by the pool, make new crafts and decorations, and basically do whatever I want when I am not working- Life is great!!!! As you all know I love scrapbooking and once again I have started another huge project- I am working on the scrapbook from our first date until this last December, then the scrapbook for this year. I am loving it!! I also recently learned away fun craft that has turned out pretty cute so far. Here are some pictures:

This is my new way cute craft bag- Jase let me get it I was so excited and it works great for haling my stuff around. The red scrapbook is the scrap book I am currently working on.

Here is a little sneak peak at our scrapbook :)

Saturday was such a nice sunny day! I had the whole day off and it was fabulous! We took Macie to the pool for her first time and she loved it!!

Happy Memorial Day!!!

2009-05-27T10:48:00.003-05:00

Memorial day was fun! I always tend to get way more home sick on holidays but working definitely helps :) Since it was a holiday the boys started working at 9am and I went to work at ten. The nice thing about memorial day is that they get done at 6pm instead of 9pm. After Jase got home we went to a beach about a half hour away and had a bon fire, played football, hung out, and roasted smores. The beach had really big shells! It blows my mind that we are living on the east coast!! There is so much to see and do out here. We are so blessed and I am so grateful to be having all these amazing adventures with the love of my life!!! Happy memorial day Family- we miss you!!!

Jase had so much fun playing football with all the guys!!

me, katie, macie, and jake

Best Anniversary Ever!!!!

2009-05-27T10:37:00.003-05:00

We had a fabulous anniversary. Before Jason and I had to work we went to the temple. It was gorgeous and so neat to think that a year ago we were sealed and started our eternal journey together. One of the temple workers found out it was our first time to the Boston temple so he gave us a tour- it was so neat I saw rooms I have never seen in any temple before. I love having the gospel in my life and I am so so so grateful that we have a temple only an hour away from our Boston home. Jason went to work, I went to work, and I got off around 5:30 and was excited for my wonderful man to get home. I had this great idea to remake the top of our wedding cake since we didn't bring it with us. The inside of our cake was flavored orange cream so I thought it would be fun to do the middle with orange cream ice cream- it turned out to be one of those ideas that was way better in your head- ice cream cakes are really hard to frost fyi :) well it was the thought that counts right- Jason came home and gave me some beautiful flowers and my favorite chocolates. We then went to the most wonderful sea food restaurant in the world!!! I have never had such good sea food before. We tried the clam chowder which is our new favorite Boston treat, and Jason had sword fish, I had halibut and cod- It was so great. I had so much fun celebrating with my amazing husband!!

I Love you Tons Tons and look forward to many more exciting years with you !!

I love Sundays!!!

2009-05-18T11:57:00.007-05:00

What another wonderful Sunday!! Sundays are my favorite day of the week. It is the only day that Jason is off. Yesterday we had Stake Conference which was amazing. President Eyring spoke and Elder Hales. It was a broadcast. Before we moved out here Elder Hales came to our stake conference and spoke to us. He used the same story in both talks so I think we really needed to get what he has been telling us. They spoke a lot about being prepared and being happy with what we have. It was an excellent meeting.

After church we went site seeing with the Weeks family. Troy, Brock's dad, was out here for business so he took us around to see a bunch of stuff. We went to Plymouth to see the Mayflower and Plymouth rock (I am not going to lie- I thought Plymouth rock was a huge rock- so it was kinda funny to see the real thing not as big as I imagined) It was really neat to see all the history there. We went to Plymouth Plantation also, which was very neat.

We then drove out to see the Kennedy compound where JFK was born. The house was beautiful and the beach had some amazing sea shells. We had a wonderful trip with good company and many good laughs!! enjoy the picturesJFK's House

Shopping in the big city with the girls

2009-05-18T11:37:00.006-05:00

On Saturday a bunch of us girls went into the big city of Boston. Driving here is ciaos so it is nice that the T station(the subway) is only about a mile from our house. We had about 7 strollers and a lot of flights of stairs to pack them up. It was way crazy but way fun!

(Shawna, Famous random guy, Katie, Macie, Me)
K- I don't know who this dude is- he was walking by and told us that he was in movies before so he is used to having his picture taken- I am not sure what movies but if I ever find out this picture is probably worth a lot LOL!!

This street performer was pretty cool he climbed a ladder that wasn't leaning against anything, when he got to the top he jumped onto his unicycle and started to juggle.

What a wonderful mother's day in Rhode Island

2009-05-11T15:50:00.010-05:00

For Mother's day we went to church- our bishop let us out early (truly inspired) which was a great present!! We went home, relaxed for a little bit had a yummy lunch, and then we went to Rhode Island to see some mansions on the beach- this was one thing I for sure wanted to see while we are living out here so it was a perfect choice for mothers day. We went with a bunch of our friends: the Bells, the Weeks, and the Lines. We had so much fun. It is so great to be able to see so much!! When we got home Jase made me a super yummy dinner and we watched a chick flick- it was a wonderful day!!

I just love this goofy guy- he cracks me up!!!

We climbed out to this rock in the ocean- it was a little difficult in flip flops but a good adventure!! We had to climb along the side of a rock on a tiny ledge- but we made it and the ocean was wonderful!!!

Jason makes every picture look good- love you hun :)

Katie and I decided that this roof looks like Indian Corn very unique!

We drove over this bridge a few times- it was supposed to be over it and back but ended up being over it a few extra times and paying the toll a couple more times than needed- roads out here are crazy and confusing but it made for some good laughs!!

Our friends the Lines

We love our MOMS!!!!!

2009-05-11T11:11:00.003-05:00

Happy Mothers day to my wonderful mom and mother in law!! We are so grateful to have such amazing women in our lives. Mom your my best friend and I love you so much! I'm so grateful for Lisa as well- you have made me feel so welcomed and loved!! WE love you both so much and sorry we weren't with you on your day but we were thinking of you and love you tons!!!

I'm so grateful for the time that we have had to spend together and see some stuff before the work starts on Monday. Don't worry I took tons of pictures- Enjoy!!!

ok so our furniture didn't come until yesterday so we used our air mattress for awhile- bed, couch, it worked great for many thing! here we are watching the Jazz game.

Thursday Jason and I went on a date to the city. It is so beautiful and I had a blast spending the day with my man :)

The temple is beautiful- it is not too far away so I am looking forward to going often!

Time for a hair cut!! We cut Jason's hair this morning- it was the first time he has ever let me do it- I was super nervous and it kinda took awhile but he was happy with the result!

How did I get so lucky?

2009-04-16T17:34:00.006-05:00

I seriously feel like the luckiest girl in the world!! I have an amazing husband who spoils me and treats me like a queen, two wonderful families who are my favorite people to be with, great friends, the opportunity to go to school and get the degree I have always wanted, what else could a girl ask for? We had a wonderful Easter Sunday. It is getting down to the end of our time here in Utah so it has been a pretty emotional week for me!! I'm way excited for Boston but I am going to miss all my favorite things (family and friends) :) here in Utah. Here are some family pictures from the weekend.

Happy One year since we got engaged!!

2009-04-08T18:44:00.003-05:00

A year ago from yesterday was when Jason and I got engaged. We had a wonderful time celebrating. We went to Red Lobster for a fabulous dinner and then came home and watched a cute movie. Jason, as I have said before, is the best, most sweetest, hottest, romantic, thoughtful, amazing guy in the entire world- which makes me the luckiest girl in the world!! I'm so grateful that he picked me and now we are happily married and enjoying everyday of our fun journey together!! I love you so much hun- thanks for making my life so wonderful!!!

I"M SO SO SO THANKFUL FOR MY LIFE!!!!

2009-03-31T20:34:00.004-05:00

This weekend was kinda crazy- Chad and Vanessa blessed Chloe and it was so neat to see Jason and the family using the Preisthood to bless her. Our family had an aweful experience on Monday morning. The roads were completly iced over and Jason and I woke up to the awful phone call that Colby had been in an accident. Jason rushed to the hospital to help Rob give him a blessing. As soon as Jason left I started praying and worrying. Colby is lucky to be alive and I am so thankful to Heavenly Father that he didn't take him from us. It made me realize that things happen so fast! I am so thankful for Jason and the Preisthood that he honors. I love my family and I'm so thankful that everyone is alright and still here with me today!!

Happy St. Patrick's day!!!

2009-03-22T22:09:00.004-05:00

Jason, Lisha, Boo, Mom, and Dad

Jason hasn't ever celebrated St. Patrick's day before- and as you all know I love celebrating anything and everything!! My mom always made a special dinner with corn beef and cabbage, and green jello, punch, etc. This year we went and had dinner with my mom and dad and Alisha and Brooke. It was so fun!! This year my mom found green dough nuts- they were so festive and fun! Thanks family we had a wonderful time celebrating with you and it was fun to introduce Jason to this fun new holiday :)

VEGAS BABY!!!!

2009-03-18T00:52:00.009-05:00

Last week was spring break and Jason was in California for work. I went with the Crowns to Las Vegas for London's soccer games and had a blast!! London did awesome and it was so fun hanging out!!!

OK so London is amazing and does flip throw ins!! They are my favorite thing to watch!!

We picked Jason up in St. George- it was so great to see him again!! I missed him tons!!!!!!!

It was so funny- we ran out of gas 1/2 mile out of Nephi.. about 5 minutes after we were totally out this message came up:

We had a great Spring break!! It was so fun to hang out in Vegas with the family and I am so glad that Jason is back with me :)

What we have been up to

2009-03-02T19:27:00.003-06:00

Well, I haven't posted for awhile so I'll give you all a little update on the Crown happenings. Jason and I have been very busy with school. I finished my first big interior design project and present it tomorrow. WAHOO!!!(this is the music room I designed)

We had a wonderful weekend. On Saturday Jason's cousin Naish was baptized. Jason spoke and did a wonderful job! On Sunday Macie was blessed and we were able to spend the day with our best friends. It was so neat to see Jason and his buddies standing in the circle together and using their priesthood!!

We also had another unusual experience on Saturday. Colby and Denver helped me finish a trick for Jason. Denver was babysitting a puppy and we pretended like they bought the puppy for me. They broght him over that afternoon and I watched him the rest of the day. It was a good practice run with the whole puppy thing. Jason is very good at detecting liars so he didn't really buy into the whole thing.. o well it was fun to have a little buddy for the day. :)

(Jason pretending not to like the dog- he really did though!!)

I also hired a personal trainer this past week.. I have been told that skinny is not the same as being in-shape, so I am getting in-shape :) My personal trainer is smokin hot!! His name is JASON lol he has helped me realize that the gym is almost as good as outside! Especially when it is cold outside :)

Our House!!!

2009-02-20T12:59:00.009-06:00

O.k. people- this is a huge post but seriously our house took up a huge part of our life so I wanted to show off all the hard work that went into transforming something nasty into something homey and beautiful!!

BEFORE:

(we didn't take very many before pictures because it totally grossed us out but I should of to give you all the full effect)

The carpet was nasty!! I can't even explain the colors- puke pink probably..

When we ripped up the carpet we found these beautiful wood floors!!!!

Here is the lovely master bathroom with a pink sink and pink tub- the carpet probably matched when it was new..

The kitchen cabinets were like a yellow brown color but all the appliances were new so that was exciting!!

THE FIXING UP:

Jason is very good with a hammer and crow bar and stuff :) We learned a ton from fixing this place up- thanks to the help of people teaching us!!

My mom and dad are pro home improver's so they taught us how to texture our ceilings- Thanks mom and dad!!

Here is Katie- ready to have a baby at anytime, but she was always smiling and helping us have a good time!!- Thanks Katie- seriously we couldn't of done it without you guys!!!

My smokin hot handy man :)

Colby redid his wood floors and they are beautiful so he helped us do ours and we couldn't be happier with the results :) Thanks Colby I appreciate all your help and electrical help too!!

Jake and Katie were helping us all the time- they were our motivators and they are pro painters so they helped make sure it turned out good!! Thanks so much guys- I think we would still be fixing the place up if you guys didn't help us!! I'm glad we can do normal hang out things now instead of work on the house every night!! haha love you guys!!

Even after working hard all day and night he still looks amazing!! Love ya hun!! :)

Jason and Jake

AFTER:

This is our favorite room in the house!! Our couch is seriously the most comfortable thing ever!! And I love my red wall Jason was so good to me and let me paint fun colors through out the house!! Jason's favorite part is his TV mounted on the fireplace..

This is the plum wall that took a lot of convincing to get!!!! Jason and Jake and Katie surprised me one day and had it painted when I got home from work :) We have white cupboards now and it looks fabulous!

Our bedroom

Jason's office (I have a craft room but it is kinda the storage room right now)

Our main bathroom- the tub was pink too but we had it redone and it is white now.. I still need to make the curtains for this room.. the colors are tans and browns and golds!! My favorite Greg Olsen angel picture is hanging above our toilet..

The navy ocean bathroom :) it was hard to get a good picture so I just thought I would show ya the awesome blue wall!

Thank you everyone who helped us!! We couldn't of done it with out you all!! We love you all so much and appreciate all your help!!!

Our champion basketball player- YAY LONDON!!!

2009-02-19T15:11:00.003-06:00

"You got me a puppy!!!!!"

2009-02-16T23:21:00.006-06:00

O.k. this is a funny story!! So ever since last summer, and now thinking about this summer I have been telling Jason that I need a little fuzzy friend to be my buddy. I finally stopped a little while ago because me bugging him about it wasn't doing anything. On Friday night we were talking about Valentines day and he says "what if I got you a puppy for Valentines.." I tried not to get my hopes up but then later that night he pulls out the computer and starts looking and puppies on KSL. So seriously anyone would guess that this was my surprise that he had been talking about right? I found one that we really liked. On Valentines day I was asking him questions to figure out what it was. all his answers still led me to believe that I was getting a puppy.. when i went to hang out with my little sisters I told my family that I had finally figured out my surprise.. and once again we looked online and that cute little puppy that we loved was sold and being picked up that afternoon.. when I went home I got the news.... there was no puppy waiting for me to name.... Its really funny now that I think about it.... I love the perfume that Jason got me !! He likes it too because it doesn't smell bad or poop :)

Most romantic day ever!!!!!

2009-02-16T23:18:00.002-06:00

Valentines was fabulous with Jason. He worked that morning so I went to a movie with my little sisters and had a blast!! That night he took me to eat where we went on our first date. Then we watched a chick flick and a man movie :) Jason got me my favorite perfume he was so sweet!!! I love you so much hun!! Thanks for making Valentines day so wonderful!!!

Valentines nails

2009-02-12T16:01:00.002-06:00

So the other night Jason had his a work meeting and I got a little bored.. I hadn't done acrylic for awhile because I didn't have the time to keep them up- but hopefully now I will find the time. I felt like being festive for Valentines day and here is what I came up with...

I am so thankful for my eyes!!!

2009-02-11T17:15:00.003-06:00

Ok- so the other day while I was at school I was walking into the sales building with Nate and we noticed a kid and he kept walking into some windows. He was blind and we thought he was trying to find the door, but he needed to be in a building clear across campus.. Nate went to his class so I walked this kid to the other building.. The whole time I was walking him I kept thinking about how grateful I am that I can see and that all my senses are working great!!!! It took us a half hour to get to the other building and it normally just takes about five. I'm so glad I had this little experience to help me remember how blessed I really am and not to take so many things for granted. :)

Where are we going this summer?

2009-02-08T22:07:00.001-06:00

We Just had the most wonderful vacation to Cancun with Jason's work. It was so fun to be in paradise for a little while and not worry about anything. We had a blast hanging out with all of our friends from the summer. Here are a lot of out pictures:

----------------------------------------------------------

XEL HA:

Xel Ha was so fun and pretty. We didn't get tons of pictures here because we were in the water most of the time. We went snorkling, had yummy food, saw manities, and dolphins, cliff jumped, and laughed lots!!

DOLPHINS:

---------------------------------------------------------

TULUM:

Tulum was so neat. The feeling there was amazing and it seriously looked like paridise! The ruins are right on the ocean. I am so glad we were able to see these neat ruins!!
