He's A Keeper

John and I had this running joke while we were dating with the phrase "You're a Keeper". I bought a t-shirt from Target with the phrase, "I'm a Keeper" on it. Needless to say, I only wore it while doing yard work, while at the gym, or sometimes it served as a night shirt. A couple of days ago, it was raining and we let Charles come in and.....it was time for DRESS UP!!! Poor Charles. I would like to think he enjoys it. After all, it's better than being in the rain don't you think? I know that some people may think it's weird to dress up your dog...but we get such a kick out of it. We love you Charles!!!

Happy 1 Year Anniversary

Happy Anniversary!!! John and I have officially made the one year mark. What a fun year this has been. It's crazy to think about how 1 year ago, we were in wedding mode. A lot of good things have happened to us this year. We are excited for year "2" coming up. Many fun things are in store! I'm very lucky to have John in mi vida. He's the best!...and he makes me the best! I went a little "Picture Crazy". Hope you don't mind.

Biking can help lower cholesterol levels.
So...I've decided that I want to start bike riding. Random. We live out by the mountains and there are so many paved trails. I'm not really much of a bike rider though. The last time that I was on a bike was over in Ireland and it was bad news bears. We had these crappy bikes from the 80's...and maybe I went down a hill so fast in the rain that I fell and bruised up my whole leg... maybe this is why I'm not too sure about the whole "riding a bike" thing again. I do however know that I'll have amazing looking legs and great endurance if I do decide to do it. Also...it's an enjoyable way to burn some extra calories!!!

Corolla Car Crunch

Isn't this car hilarious? I meant to take a picture of my car...but this car is just so much better. I love anything that is pink!!! So maybe...I've come to the conclusion that I'm not a very good driver. Recently I was at my parents house in Tucson and I backed out of thier driveway and ended up running into the fence. It was not a pretty site. Yesterday I got home from work...pulled into the garage...shut the garage door...and then heard a crunching like sound. Silly me...I didn't pull the car in far enough and the garage door came slamming down on the trunk of my car. I know what you're thinking...Wouldn't the garage door immedietly go back up once it felt that something was in the way? Nope...sure didn't. So now I have some indents of the garage permanetly indented on the trunk of my car. I keep telling John that I just need to be driven everywhere. He thinks I'm nuts!

Mercy Me

Over the weekend, my parents came up to Phoenix. John made us his yummy Navajo Tacos for lunch. Then later in the evening, my parents and myself went to a Mercy Me concert. For those of you who don't know who Mercy Me is, it's a Christian Rock group. They sing that popular song, "I Can Only Imagine". Anyway...I used to listen to them all the time on my mission. I had been to one of their concerts last year and was excited to go again this year. Last years concert was more enjoyable for me as a whole. They played way more music last year. This year was more of a sermon setting. I had a lot of fun going with my mom. We were amused by looking at everyone. It was interesting to me to see how different people worship. It made me gratful for my membership in the church and the way in which we worship.

Big Toe

Don't worry...this picture is not John's foot, although it would be funny if it were. John and I had quite the adventure last night. We just had a RV gate built put in and the guy who installed the fence, so kindly left the left over brick sitting out on our driveway. The brick couldn't stay there, so we had to take care of it. To make a long story short...John ended up running over his foot with the garbage can and we took hom to the ER to get it fixed. Three hours later...we were finaly seen by the doctor. Thankfully, he didn't break any bones or even have to have stitches. He did, however, have to get an injection in his toe. It was sad. Poor guy. John's very happy that he can still play golf with the boys this weekend.
