Weekend Events!

I finally have a minute to update about what we've been up to!

We've had some pretty busy weekends!

After we got home from Mexico there was not resting or down time for us! We got home on Thursday, went to work Friday then left that night for Vernal with Lando and Olivia!

Right before we left for Mexico we got news that one of Bo's friends, Daniel Gurr, died serving our country. Bo played soccer with him in high school. We are so glad we came home when we did because we got the opportunity to attend his funeral. It was a very eye opening experience. It kind of put things into perspective. It's different when you know them. We are very grateful for Daniel and all the other men and women who are serving our country. It was so amazing to see all the flags up and down the streets in Vernal. I wish we could have been there the day before when all of Vernal welcomed Daniel home. I can only imagine the sight it was.

After the funeral, my parents took us to the lake! They got a new boat at the beginning of the summer so we were excited to try it out!

Olivia was a good sport and got out on the tubes with Lando and Bo. Me... Not so much of a good sport.

The next weekend I went to our friends, Jason and Mallori's wedding. Bo had to work so I was a loner during the day but the ceremony was so nice!

After the wedding we headed to Vernal again.

We went boating again. A few of Bo's friends came with us from Wisconsin. They had never tried wakeboarding so we spent the day teaching them. We also got a wake surf and were trying it out!

Water planking??

The rest of the weekend was so much fun! We went to Jason and Mallori's reception and on Sunday we went to Lakyn's farewell. She did such an amazing job and giving her farewell talk. I've already read a couple of her emails and it sounds like she is rocking it just like we knew she would!

Labor Day weekend was nice and relaxing, which was just what I needed :) I have been working lots of hours at work so Saturday was spent working and napping! On Monday we went to Bridal Veil Falls with Drew and Jessica and Lando and Oliva with some Taco Bell! We didn't last long though cause the wind picked up and it started raining. But it was nice to get out after a relaxing weekend!

Last weekend we celebrated Lando's birthday! Olivia is so talented and baked and decorated her little booty off! Everything she did turned out so cute!

Did I mention I'm an "aunt" again?! To this little guy:

This is Rufio! Olivia made him a little party hat so he could have a little fun with us! Isn't he cute?!

Happy Birthday Lando!

Ahh... Feels so good to be all updated ;)

The Last Day :(

We had to leave to head to the airport by noon on Thursday when we left so we didn't have much time to do anything. So we just ate breakfast and then hung out on the beach for a couple hours. Oh- and waited for the vendors to come! I really really wanted to get another pair of sunglasses so I was hoping for the vendor with the sunglasses to come. We waited til about the last second and he finally came!

I forgot to mention this 'green drink!' It was so good. Bo had it pretty much every morning. I don't even know how to explain it, it had so many different flavors!

Our last drinks :(

Pretty much all we did on the flight home.

Favorite part about airports! Cinnabon!

Mexico Day Cuatro!

The 4th day we were there was our last full day :( You could also call day 4 picture day! Sorry for all the pictures. We didn't do too much. It was nice, we mostly walked around the city and explored :) It was nice to just sight see and hang out.

Huevos Rancheros!

Salmon Bagel!

When we went on our zip line tour we saw this little taco place on the way. We took the bus up town and saw it again so we got off cause we wanted to try it out. I'm so glad we went! It was yummy and so cheap for how much food they gave us! It was a kind of a cool place too.

Can I just tell you that I was addicted to Coke while I was there? I am NOT a Coke drinker but I swear the it's different down there! Every time I try it here now I get disappointed.

They had all these different salsas to put on our tacos. They all ranged in hotness. Bo was brave and tried all of them minus the avocado one cause he is allergic but he said they were pretty hot!

Sorry there are so many pics of us! After lunch we went and did our exploring and took lots of pics! Now we have new ones for our house though!

When we got on the bus to go back to our resort, Bo was paying and so I went and sat down. I tried to save him a seat next to me but this little old lady sat down next to me... awkward haha! She kept talking to me in Spanish and I didn't know what she was saying so I just nodded and smiled like I knew what she was talking about. Bo just had to get a picture!

We got lucky, while we were there USA and Mexico were playing each other so we went into the bar area at our resort to watch. Of course we had to get our Cokes!

In the middle of the game it was sunset and I had been wanting to get pictures of like every day so I didn't want to miss it the last night we were there. It was so pretty! I'm glad we didn't miss it!

This pic is pretty much the reason why my clothes were wet in the rest of the pics but I wasn't too sad cause I kinda like this haha

Watching the game!

After the game, it started storming a little. There was thunder and lightening so we went and watched on our balcony. It was crazy! The thunder went For-ev-er!

This pic was taken when lightening struck! No lie! It was as dark as the picture below outside. Bo took the picture just at the perfect time and it make it look like it was daylight outside. Crazy hu?! You can kind of tell it was dark from the pool on the left. It's all lit up.
