We celebrated Heather’s birthday at Aurella’s Pizza…mmmmm.  And mommy made the most amazing cake!  Happy birthday sis -  we love you:)

Erin Wall Meads BFA Show

I was just thinking…isn’t it neat when someone is good at doing something they love and they follow their dreams to pursue that something?

My friend Erin is one of those people.  Talented artist + beautiful personality + stunningly gorgeous = Erin Wall Meads.  Thanks Erin, for putting on an incredible art show and being such a wonderful friend!  We love you.

p.s. That’s me:)

Pictured here with the woman of the hour.

Jonny and I went to the show with Tori, Josh and little Peyton.  We had so much fun with them!

Here we are in front of the display.  It really was incredible.

Paradise, Here We Come!

Jonny and I went to Hawaii for spring break and didn’t want to leave!  It was beautiful and we had a great time just the two of us.

No, this snowy mountain isn’t in Hawaii, it’s Washington.  We had a layover on our way over in Seattle and I had to take a picture for James, who’s serving a mission there.  Seattle was pretty, but we decided to continue on to Hawaii.

We hiked Diamond Head on our first day there.  The hike wasn’t too bad (other than a million stairs), but the view was AMAZING!

We love the beach!

One of my favorite things about Hawaii…the Swap Meet!  You can buy everything you’d find all over the islands in one spot for a super low price!

Waimea Valley Adventure.  We jumped off the Waimea rock – you can see the rock behind us:)  It was scarier than usual because the waves were big!   After we jumped, I layed out in the sun (you’d never know it) while Jonny body surfed the waves.  Then we hiked the nature walk to the waterfall.

Here are some more adventures from our vacay.  Amazing carrot cake from Ted’s, Chinaman’s Hat, Dole Plantation, and Shark’s Cove.

And even more adventures!!!   PCC, LDS Temple, Buddhist Temple, and Hukilau Cafe.  We were so sad to come home, but can’t wait to go back!

Mco’s 16!

I seriously cannot even believe that my baby brother Mikey turned 16!  Watch out drivers!  We went to Joy Luck to celebrate.  Michael loves Asian people- I think it’s because he’s so smart like them!  Anyway, here we are wishing we were Asian:

The only thing that would’ve made this party better was his brother Jamesy (who’s serving a mission)…oh, or a new car!

Cristy’s Cabin

Well, since we forgot to take pictures until the morning of, almost everyone had left so this is all I’ve got:

The boys did what they do best…guitar hero:)   The girlies did what we do best….talk!  We had such a great time and it was especially good to get together because Erin & Matt and Amy & Adam are moving soon.  We’re so excited for them to have their adventures, but way sad that they won’t be close by anymore:(

Slumber Partae!

Jonny and I had been wanting to hang out with these cute girlies (our nieces), so we invited them over for a sleepover.  Oh boy did we have our hands full!  They are used to Grandma Cid’s house that is big and has TONS of toys.  We had to be a little more creative, but we had more fun than you can imagine building forts, drawing pictures, eating junk (not too much Callie!), watching Tink, making milkshakes, and everything else you can imagine.  Thanks for coming girlies.  Sure do love you two!

Hangin out in the fort.  Aryanna was so helpful with Kita. She is so tender and was very well behaved.  Not to mention-super cute!

Aunties Kelly and Steph came over to help us out.  We had so much fun with them!

Yes, that is Kita wrapped up in a Ute’s snuggie.  Notice her tiny hands sticking out.  This girl is hilar!

Milkshake time!

Merry Crazy Christmas

We love Christmas Day!  The past three Christmases as marrieds have included very early mornings with the two of us, mornings with the Collier crew, mid-mornings with the Holmes family, lunch with the whole Collier gang (also known as the Crusin’ Collier Club), late lunch with the Johnsons (Grandma Deloris, Grandpa Clark, and fam), afternoon movie (Sherlock Holmes this year) with Colliers, again to the Holmes house, night games at the Collier Residence, and finally the next morning (1:30 or 2:00am) sleep time in our comfy bed!

So crazy, but so fun.  This year we even had Grandma and Grandpa Dance with us!  I couldn’t capture all the fun on camera, but here are a few snapshots:

Our tree…with my new lamp being displayed.

Don’t judge us…this is at like 5:30am!

My Christmas Stocking

This is some of the fun stuff that Mamacita gave us.  She is much too generous when it comes to the gift-giving.  We love it all though—thanks Mom!

Some of the crew.  We had Grammy, Gramps, Mike, Sequoia, and Justin joining us as well this Christmas…it made it even more fun!

LOVE these girls…especially when they’re all gooey from “Grandma” Cid’s famous sticky buns.

This is the fun chair that Bob and Cid gave us.  It’s super comfy!

Gangsta thug, what?!

Sorry to post so many pictures, but I feel like I need to have these all documented since it is CHRISTMAS!  Thank you everyone for making this Christmas Day just as special as the last one and the one before.  We love you!
