2015 in review!

I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. This year has been different than the first few for us. We have had to face a few more trials than usual and it felt like we were just stuck a few times but we certainly know how to make the best out of situations. There were a lot of positives this past year! We went on some vacations. Disneyland, camping, St. George to name just a few. Jonathan graduated from SLCC and started his Bachelor's degree at Western Governors University, he also started a new job at Vivint to start his career in accounting. We got 3 new nieces this year that we just adore! We gained one sister-in-law and one brother-in-law -  Jonathan's side of the family is complete with spouses now. To end the year we are buying our first home! We actually got the house back in November but it wasn't owned previously for more than 90 days so due to law we have to wait a little before moving in and actually closing on it. (More waiting...) It was supposed to be our Christmas present but it looks like that will come a few weeks late. I will post pictures when we are in! We just celebrated Christmas with great family and friends. Next week is J's birthday. 25 years old! Looking back at this year the first thing I think of is how grateful I am for him and how proud I am for all his big accomplishments this year. I don't know if I would have survived this year without him!

Here is a glimpse of our 2015! (I never have the patience to get the pictures in order, I will try and put dates on them)


Early this year Jonathan's best friends Cole had emergency back surgery to remove a rapid growing tumor. He is okay now!

Cliff Jumping of course!

Happy 3 years to us!

Also this is a work selfie because I worked a lot.

Happy New Year to all our friends and family!

Disneyland!

We recently got back from one of the funnest vacations with some great friends. It was one of those things that you couldn't believe that it actually happened because things fall through easily especially with 8 different people and their schedules and circumstances. Jonathan and I both LOVE Disneyland. Like really, really LOVE Disneyland! So we tried to do everything we could to go and luckily it worked out and it was worth it. A little note of advice for everyone, it is ALWAYS worth it to go to Disneyland. It was halloween time at the happiest place on earth which made it so much fun and it would have really felt like Fall if it wasn't 95 degrees with an insane amount of humidity hanging around. We never have felt that heat in California before, maybe not even on our Caribbean cruise in August last year! We were all troopers and just made the best of it. Here are some fun-tastic pictures of the trip. P.S. I love pictures. A lot.












































Maybe next year will finally be Annual Pass year for us. Maybe we will try WDW instead. Who knows what life will bring. We are blessed with the best of friends who are always up for a good time though no matter what it is. Love you all! (Insert Kissy emoji here)
