Blessings in My Life

I have recently realized how blessed my life truly is. The Lord has blessed
Paul and I so much. I'm so blessed to be married to such a wonderful man who loves the Lord and works hard. What a beautiful world we live in that has been created for us to enjoy, whenever I'm feeling down I look around at the beautiful mountains or the smiling children playing outside so oblivious to the problems of the world and feel so happy and so grateful to the Lord for all I have. I love my life, and I love my family and friends, how blessed I am each and every day. I have also learned Christ is always willing to help you and
waits for you to simply ask. He is our Brother, our Savior, and our Friend!

4th of July FUN!!

We finally got a long weekend for the 4th of July! yay!! So of course we took full advantage of the day. We got a hotel room at Huntington Beach and headed out. It was fun to walk around the little shops at the beach and we both got coconut rings and kettle corn out of the deal! Then we headed down to the beach to pick a good spot to watch the fireworks. They lit the fireworks off the pier and had a perfect seat. Of course they were amazing and so romantic to be laying on the beach with Paul.



Megan, Jarom, Me and Paul waiting for the fireworks!
As you can see we all loved the kettle corn and "sand
hammock" the guys made us.







This guy was amazing, he was riding on an enormous unicycle and juggling at the same time! Paul and Jarom held the unicycle while he climbed on. Acouple times he pretended he was falling and it gave me a mini heart attack. It was soo cool!


On Saturday we went to the beach for a little while but since it wasn't that hot we decided to go check out L.A. We strolled around Rodeo Drive and looked at all the fancy stores. Paul really enjoyed seeing all the expensive cars that people in L.A. drive. The best part of the day was spending it with Paul and having that extra time together. I love him so much and I'm so proud of him!

Tryin' to Wheel and Deal!

Paul and I are thinking of buying a new car so we decided it would be fun to go check out prices and things this weekend. It's always fun to look at cars with Paul, he loves them so much! We spent a fun, relaxing weekend just the two of us. It was so nice to be able to just be together and not worry about going anywhere or doing anything. The question still remains whether or not we actually will buy a new car, but it was fun to spend the day with the love of my life. (Also check out Paul's cool Pointe Pest Control outfit! It's his everyday attire!)

Hair One Minute, Gone the Next











My good friend Miriam cut my hair a few weeks ago. It was a pretty big change but I love it. It's nice and short for the hot summer in California. Paul had never seen my hair short before but he says he's a big fan as well!










Here are some before and after pictures.

We're Bloggers Now!

I finally got sucked into the world of blogging. I figure this way we can put up some new pictures of us and you can see our California adventure in action. California has been so fun! Paul works hard, long hours during the week so there's little time to do much but eat and sleep so we try to take full advantage of the weekends. We've been going to the beach every weekend; it's been fun to check out the different beaches around this area and see which one we like the best. Paul has gotten into longboarding lately so he likes to take that and ride it along the sidewalk. He's also trying to get better at boogie boarding and skim boarding, we'll see how that goes. It's fun just being in a new place together having fun adventures as we go.
