What a wonderful day it's been.

D with her new cell phone 

we had Easter dinner with our cute friends.. the Pena's
it was AMAZINGLY delish.. and gorgeous

the settings were off on my camera.. but she had the table set so cute.
we couldn't be more blessed to have such wonderful friends.


(FUZZY Easter family picture.. and the only one i got)


An amazing day to reflect on the birth, life, and resurrection of our brother and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Is it possible to even think.. let alone talk about this topic without it bringing tears to yours eyes? Not for me. It sounds way too simple to say how grateful I am for my Savior, and to know that he does LIVE, and because he gave his life we will be with him again. There is not a greater thought in my mind than being in his presence again. Until that time does come, I hope to live my life in a way that will show him the gratitude I feel with my whole heart for his ultimate gift of eternal life, eternal families and happiness he has made possible for me, my family, and each of you. 



Happy Easter.

weddings. utah. idaho. pictures & more pictures.

What a week! 
Pretty sure we jam packed Jeremy's spring break to the hilt! 

It just so happened that Jeremy's best friend was getting married in SLC last weekend, And his cousin was also getting married in SLC 2 days later. AND it was the beginning of Jeremy's spring break... it couldn't have worked out more perfect! 

... and after spending a few days in Utah for the weddings, we headed to Idaho to chill with family.
CHILL is just what we did too! FREEZING. 
I'm seriously considering San Diego as my home town as of late :) 
It was GREAT to be home for a while though, sure miss our sweet families.


Blair, Clayton, Jeremy @ Claytons wedding.
Best friends from WAY back when.
These 3 are hilarious together.. hopefully someday we'll all live close because they just LOVE each other and laugh like school girls every time they are together.
The GORGEOUS newlyweds! 
(she won Ms. Utah last year, beautiful!)




And Jeremy's cousin... well i guess i should say OUR cousin, Kayla, also got married that same weekend. 
She was a stunning bride! 
I swear bangs were invented just because of this girl.. 
no one can rock them like she can! 
so happy for kayla and jordan! 


London got plenty 0 kiss from her cousin Ady. 
I love it

While in Idaho we got together with some more of Jeremy's high school friends for dinner.. one of his best friends from high school married one of my roommates from college (on the far right)... we set them up.. and now they have us to thank for their adorable baby, Samantha :)
It was so fun to catch up.. not many people as good as these 2 couples.
