Another Winter in Portland

Well this winter I was able to get my job back at Club Sport.  Not only did I get the juice bar back, but they liked my work ethic so much they also put me on fitness floor staff, which was awesome! I loved it because I got to be out and around the members of the club and got to help those that needed help with equipment or whatever it is that they may have needed, oh and it payed more than the juice bar, so it was really nice having those two jobs!

This winter we did a lot of things, but some of those will be in different post so be looking for those, like our Hawaii Trip.  

I was kind of bummed because we only got to go to one blazer game, but it was still a lot of fun and Lindsey, Michael's sister got to come with us to and the best part it was free for us to go.


A month or so after being in Portland my sister actually came and visited me because she is going to school in Moses Lake to finish out her senior year.  It was fun getting to see her because I had not seen her for sense November.  It was cool being able to show her around and hangout with her before she had to go back. We also got to take her to voodoo doughnuts and of course she loved it!  It is one of those places that when you come to Portland you have to go to voodoo doughnuts.  


Now we move on to February.  The month that Aubree got married! I was so excited for the wedding. She had me as on of her bridesmaids, so I bought a plane ticket and flew down to Salt Lake to attend there wedding.  Her wedding was the first one I was able to attend in the Temple.  It was so beautiful and I was so excited to finally go inside the Salt Lake Temple.
Here are some pictures of her lovely day!


Me with the lovely Bride!

She of course was our hair dresser!

and I got to see Keng!

After the reception me and my family headed to the BYU vs Gonzaga game.  I had never been to a collage basketball game before.  Well one I could remember anyways, so it was such a cool experience. BYU has a really cool entrance.  Here is a video of what I was able to get of it.  I didn't get to record the part where the sheets drop form the ceiling, so just so you are aware that is where the sheets come form.  Over all it was a great game, but mostly because Gonzaga won!!



The next morning before my plane flew out we stopped in Salt Lake to eat at the Original Pancake House. which by the way is amazing!! my favorite thing there is there banana pancakes with coconut syrup!! ahh so good.


haha



So far this winter break has been a pretty good one! Look for more of our adventures we will be going on this winter break!

Kicking our summer off right.

Summer is officially here! My favorite season has finally arrived. There is no better way to celebrate the first weekend of summer then camping! Michael and I love camping. Their is just something about campfires, sleeping under the stars, and s'mores  that get me excited to camp. This weekend we camped in Provo canyon with some friends that are going to BYU. Once we got camp all set up and the fire going this little guy decided to pay us a visit. Not going to lie I thought it was a bear sneaking up on us at first. I was scared out of my mind, but then he stuck his head up and I felt a lot better. After making some yummy s'mores and relaxing by the fire we got in the cars and headed to squaw peak to  look at the beautiful lights from on top of the mountain. You can see all of Utah Valley from up there. Everyone knows that if you are looking to get a goodnights rest  that camping is not what you want to be doing. ...

OUR HOSPITAL STAY

Throughout my pregnancy I was continually told how everyone was  so excited to get home from the hospital after delivering... So I was expecting that I would be that way too. They told me that they hated how the nurses would have to come in and check on you every hour and wake the baby to check the babies vitals also. and I understand, that could get very frustrating.... Some people told me the food was horrible, and the nurses were mean and would not help out much. That basically they just treated you like another patient and didn't care that this was your special moment with your new baby.   So needless to say I was kinda nervous for this hospital stay.   I did not want to have that terrible of a time. ............... Well my hospital stay turned out very different from what I was expecting.  My nurses were absolutely amazing  the food was fabulous the pediatricians were so kind the service was impeccable and ...

THE FIRST TRIMESTER

My first 3 months of pregnancy went by so fast.  It probably had a lot to do with us moving and spending a lot of our time packing and playing in the sun as much as we could before heading towards rainy Oregon.  I was also very blessed with good health. I have been lucky enough to miss all the first trimester sicknesses you hear about. The only thing that has sounded gross to me is sweets. Candy Baked goods & Soda you name it, it all sounded gross to me. Which I guess is a blessing! All I wanted to eat was fruit, pasta, & pizza. They weren't true craving though, just whenever I would try to think of what I wanted to eat it was always fruit in my head first. I hope it stays that way the rest of my pregnancy because I could definitely handle that! Because of moving to Oregon we have not been able to go to the doctors on a regular basis because of the whole switching insurance stuff, which is fine because it is only the first trimest...
