Sitting, Waiting, Wishing...

We have put in our very first offer...for a house, of course. We are SO excited and SO nervous all at the same time. We are suppose to hear from the bank by next Friday. So until then... we wait.

It will be so exciting to have a place to call home. Not that my Parents' isn't home or Jeff's Parents' isn't home. but this will be OUR HOME.

It's hard not to get our hopes up for this house. It by no means is our "dream" house, but would be a WONDERFUL starter home and a GREAT investment for us!


The offer is in... Now we just sit and wait... *sigh*

Do you have a Talent? Business? Hobby?

Don't miss out on this! My cousins are hosting a Creative Art Expo! They are still looking for people to host different types of booths. They are still looking for photographers, performers and people to promote their businesses. It sounds like it will be a really fun time! Contact Delight if your interested :)

My Best Friend :)

I LOVE my sweet husband! He is without a doubt my best friend. I don't know where I would be without him. I love the way he makes me laugh. He is so funny. I love how random he is at times :) I absolutely can't wait to come home to this everyday .....

This is my nephew William :) If you can't tell by his face, he LOVES Jeff. William starts laughing (really laughing) everytime he looks at Jeff. I can't wait to have children. Jeff will make such a great Dad! I can't wait to see what our children look like. I absolutely love to watch Jeff play with his nephews and imagine the day he will be playing with our own children. :)

I could go on and on about him<3

1 DOWN, ETERNITY TO GO :)

This past Sunday the 19th was our 1st Anniversary! We had a lot of fun celebrating and we able to space out of the passed two weeks.

We decided to rent Jet Skis and stay at Cibola Vista Resort one night. We planned on doing this the 18th but it turned out I had off work the 9th & 10th so we decided to do it on Thursday the 9th so it would cost less.

Well, we had it all planned and reserved but then heard it was supposed to be windy and a couple storms were heading in around that time. We quickly pushed back the Jet Ski rental until the 18th and decided we would just stay at the Resort and enjoy the time off of work.

On Thursday the 9th we slept in, went to Village Inn for breakfast and decided to heck with the weather, let's go to the lake! We took our puppy, Charly, to see if she would swim. Unfortunately the camera died so we didn't take many pictures.

We then headed over to check in to Cibola for the night. While we were lounging around we decided that pizza & games/swimming sounded fun. So, we decided to heck with our alone time and we invited our good friends Curt & Katie over. They brought pizza and we provided swimming (ok the resort did)! We had a blast as we always do!

(The picture below was taken while on the balcony waiting for Curt & Katie.)

During our swimming adventures, we started chatting about Six Flags. Jeff's parents bought 4 season passes earlier this year and we thought they should be put to good use. And so the planning began...

We left Friday the 10th at 7:45pm. We arrived at the hotel in California at 1:45am Saturday morning. We no sooner fell asleep and woke up again, at least that's what it felt like! We ate breakfast and then went on our way to Magic Mountain :)

In the car on the way to the park!

Waiting for Viper to open. We actually ended up leaving the line after waiting 20 minutes. It worked out ok though, we hit the back side of the park and were able to practically walk on rides for a while. Waiting in line for the Riddler!

Just before we took off :)

I think this was while we were taking off on Viper! But I'm not entirely positive this was Viper.

Jeff wouldn't let me leave without taking a picture with Sylvester! haha. I used to LOVE that guy growing up!

Kisses for me :D

I am so grateful for Jeff in my life and for the passed year. We have been able to do so many fun things. We have grown a lot together in the passed year. We grow more and more in love with eachother everyday! I can't wait too see what the next year has in store for us.

I love you Jeffrey! :)

P.S. We still rented Jet Skis this passed Saturday. It was a blast! I will post some pictures of that adventure soon!

Looking back on 2008...

Let me start (again) by letting everyone know I started this in JANUARY!!! I have keep meaning to sit and edit it and add pictures and I just haven't had time or been on the computer with pictures. I decided today while I was sitting at work that I was going to post it anyways. I need to start blogging about new things and I can't bring myself to do it until this is posted. So, finished or not, here it is....





**I was sitting here, on the floor, thinking of all the things that happened in 2008 and then realized, once again, that I am the worst blogger ever. On that note, I decided I should add a little something of all the fun things we did over the year. Afterall, it has been a VERY eventful year for our family.

• Anthony and Brittany were married in March.

• Jeff and I were married in April.

• My parents were suddenly "Empty Nesters"




• We found out Brittney and Wil were having a baby (due March 1st 2009)




• Took a trip with my parents to Shumway (snowflake/taylor area) to see my Grandma and Grandpa Flynn and to take Jeff to the Rodeo we go to every year.

At the rodeo, they tied money to a calf, had all the kids go down and they chased it around trying to get the money. It was HILARIOUS!

My cousin's son Bradyn, he is so dang cute!!

My mom! I love her :)

• Took a trip with Jeff's family to Flagstaff to stay in a cabin and relax

• William Michael Polvino was born in September - son of Anthony and Brittany Polvino

• Spent halloween at Jeff's parents passing out candy with William as Tigger

• I took a trip back to Shumway for my cousin Delight's sealing :)

(which I have pictures I really wanted to post, but I'm at work and they are at home :( )

• Jeff and I went to Sedona for a night! My co-workers gave us a gift certificate to a The Lodge at Sedona. It was so nice, we loved it!
  
  
• Went 4-wheeling to Crown King for Jeff's 22nd birthday! (Happy Birthday, by the way, I meant to get on here and give you a shout out, but as you can tell, I'm not the best blogger! I guess you will have to wait til next year and see if you get yourself a blogpost of fame :D I love you!!!)

THANKSGIVING

• Took a trip (again) back to Shumway for Thanksgiving with my Mom's family. We had a lot of fun shooting and spending time with my cousins. We also fell in love with this little guy ...

(Picture of our Puppy should appear here... )

Charly is just like Jeff's previous dog and is SO dang cute! Or so we thought! Don't get me wrong, this puppy is VERY cute, but she is also a monster! Hidden deep under those sad puppy dog eyes, there is a menice that eats EVERYTHING! Luckily for us, (and unfortunately for them) Charly stays at Jeff's parents. It is not a normal day unless their backyard is covered in shredded items from their closets.
