We're engaged!!!!

David told me he was going shopping for my christmas present this morning(December 19) so I didnt even bother getting ready, even though EVERYONE gave me hints to.. So I was watching a movie and I heard a loud truck out side so I looked out the window and saw a fire truck.. I opened the door thinking one of David's fire fighting friends was here and there David was in his fire stuff ...with a black box in his hand.. He asked me to come out side and I was like "David what are you doing?" Then he got down on his knee and asked my to marry him!! I am so so so happy! We have set the date to be April 17th 2010!!

Here are pictures of my ring.. Pictures and video are to fallow!!!

Some changes and decorating for Halloween!

SO on Saturday David and I went to a few furniture stores to just see what the had on sale and we ended up getting a killer deal!!! We got this couch, the rug and 2 side tables for $230 on a Scratch and dent sale, and they were floor models so it was even cheaper!! And the couche barely has any scratches.. the tables have non at all and neither does the rug.. That I can see at least! We love it! It finally feels like a home!!

We had fun having a home instead of an apartment to decorate this year.. here are a few pictures of our decorations!

My handsome man!

David got his official uniform for Santa Clara fire department and I think he looks so very handsome! I love you David!

I am so very proud of you!!

Still going strong.

This month makes 1 year and 7 months for David and I. I just wanted to write a little thank you to Ben Mcguire for introducing us! I am the luckiest girl in the world and couldn't imagine my life with anyone else in the world!

I love you David!

Here is a picture of the 2 of us the first time we ment and now!

Then January 2008

Now August 2009

Take me out to the ball game!

Last week The St. George minor league baseball team, The Roadrunners, had a breast cancer awareness game and David and I had front row tickets.

I promised my little buddy AJ that I would take him the next time we went to a game, so I called his mom up and asked if we could take him to the game. He was way excited and way cute, we bought him a baseball and David took him down to the locker room and had the team sign the ball. They also gave everyone free pink t-shirts.. It took a lot of bribing to get AJ into that shirt but after Dip 'N Dots, A snow cone, an some root beer he finally caved. Thank you Amy for letting us take him!!

Here are a couple pictures from that night!

Baker Res.

So for my birthday we went camping at the Baker Res. It was nice and peaceful. We pretty much had the whole place to our selves. It was nice to get away and just relax. Here are some cute pictures of the dogs playing in the water and around camp. Puggles loves to swim but we couldn't get Shasta to swim for the life of us.. I also put a video of puggles swimming, she is so cute! It was a wonderful weekend though!!

Birthday Maddness

So today is my birthday and I just wanted to post pictures of my day.

The cute girls at my work decorated my desk.

My good friend Ashley baked me a cake.

And I made myself this cake. I tried to do the fondant thing.. lol

David and I are going camping up at Baker Res. So I will post pictures from the weekend when we get back!

VEGAS!

So over the weekend we got to go down to Vegas and spend some much needed time with David's mom! It was so nice being able to relax and just shop and have fun on the strip with Davey and his mom! I couldn't help but smile at the way they look at each other after not seeing each other for so long! It was a much needed break and we loved every moment of it. On Friday we drove down kind of late and got there around 9 when we got there we went down to freemont street, David's mom had never been there and David and I have only seen it in the day time so that was fun.. Not to mention David won $60 whoo whoo! When we decided to go back to the strip the only thing that could hold all of us was a limo so we got a fun little limo ride. David and I were so tired by this time that we got something to eat and just crashed! On Saturday we walked the strip and bought a few things and I rode the New York New York with David's mom's friend Angela. That was a blast as well. Later that night we went to dinner at The Cheese Cake Factory and did a little more shopping and by the time that was all done it was already 9 so we decided to head home to get back to our dogs.. but over all it was a great trip and we can't wait till September when we get to take our week road trip up to Oregon!

Any way here is a picture of Judy David and I on Saturday while walking the strip!!

HCG DIET?

So a couple of friends of mine have been doing the HCG Diet and they both look great and are loosing weight fast!! So I was totally jealous and decided to try it myself, And I HAVE LOST 8 POUNDS IN 5 DAYS!!!! that is just amazing to me! I am so thrilled!! For those of you that dont know what the HCG Diet is it is a diet that you can only eat 500 Calories a day and you can only have certain foods, No Sugar and No carbs, its very strict! And you give yourself HCG injections everyday for 40 days then you go off for 40 days and if you want start back up and do another 40 days. I am only planning on doing one cycle cause i dont have a huge amount to loose. The doctors say you should loose 1 to 2 pounds a day, I have been loosing 2-3!! I am so excited that this will be a way that I can see fast improvement and have a little more motivation to KEEP IT OFF! But any way I will post more soon! Thanks for reading!!

David's Birthday!!

David's Birthday this year was a blast!! My brother and his girl friend came down and we went and hiked through zions with grandma. It was great spending time with everyone and It was such a beautiful day! He are a few pictures from the day!

Saturday night I through David a Surprise Birthday party. All of our friends and his co workers came and He was just amazed that we poled one on him. It was a wonderful night and we all had a lot of fun! here are a few pictures from the night!

David when he first walked in the door..

David's Awesome cake!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID! I LOVE YOU!

Down 7 pounds

I have lost 7 pounds in the last week. I have just been watching what I eat and going on a lot of walks with David and the dogs! I am super happy that I am starting to loose. I have been drinking so much water and dont even have a diet Pepsi in my fridge! Thats huge for me! :) It has been hard watching what I eat with David cause that boy can eat anything and everything! But I guess having him eat more is a little help so there is less for me to eat! Good thing it is summer and all my favorite fruits are in season!

Any way a little up date about us.. Over the weekend we bought a King size bed at a killer deal! We got it for $199! It was used in model homes just as a show so no one has really slept on it, and the place we bought it from steamed cleaned it for us so its just like new. This bed usually runs for $900! So we got a steal!!

My Parents have been in Akumal Mexico the last week so I have been totally jealous of them and wanting to be with them!!!

On Saturday my work gave us a free gift which was a free 10 X 13 family portrait, So David and I took the Dogs with us and all 4 got our picture taken. I am excited I think it will be cute! The dogs did soo good!! Puggles just sat on my lap and Shasta sat right next to David! The did very good!!

All in all it has been a great week! We have a lot coming up in the next few months and I cant wait!! This month is David's Birthday next month is my mom and dads birthday and David's mom is coming down to Vegas so we are going to go see her! Not to mention it is Summer and we both just want to be outside playing!!

We are excited for what is to come!!

I will keep you all posted on my weight!

My poor puppy!

So ever since we got Puggles we knew something was wrong with her hip but the other night she was laying under my recliner and I didn't realize it so when I went to get up I hit her with the foot stool.. She yipped really bad and wouldn't walk on her leg, so I took her to the vet to get an x ray and I found out my poor puppy has a broken hip. We are going to wait and see if it will heal itself in the next month but if it doesn't she will need SURGERY!!! :( So now she has to be in the kennel when we are gone to work and has to walk around with a bandage on her leg.. I feel so bad!! But I am hoping it will heal itself!! Here are some pictures of the 2 off us after finding out the news!!

Happy little Family!

So yesterday we took Puggles to the dog park for the first time and that was just a blast! It was way cute to watch her run and play with all the other dogs. When we got home we tried to take pictures of the 3 of us but puggles thought the flash was a bug or something so everytime we would take a picture of her she would jump at the camera trying to attack it! It was cute! But we ended up getting this picture!! Which I love!! Puggles looks so mad though.. lol!
