St. George, Utah

Troy and I drove up to St. George this past weekend for a wedding of our dear friends' Tracine and Juan. We were very excited to catch up with friends we hadn't seen in years. Thank you to the Marroquin's for allowing us to spend their special day with them. I am so glad we were able to relax in our hotel and do a little bit of shopping while there. I usually work every Saturday, so it was nice to have off and do whatever I wanted. I wish we were able to do more outdoors, but the weather was not very cooperative, as it was extremely windy and cold. Coming from hot weather in California, Troy and I didn't think walking around would be very pleasant. Plus, we didn't want to come back with colds. But, we were able to drive around town and take pictures of the beautiful landscapes. And, on the way back to Cali, Troy drove me out to the Hoover Dam. I have always wanted to see it and boy was it amazing!!

Mexico

In July, Troy and I headed off to Playa del Carmen, Mexico for a much needed vacation. We had a blast parasailing, shopping in the village, touring the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza and Coba, snorkeling, cliff jumping, eating the local cuisine, chill'n in the infinity pool, and relaxing on the pristine beaches of the Yucatan. We wished we could haved stayed there longer, but after a week, we had to step back into reality and go back to work.

Our New House

Well, Troy and I purchased a new home back in Feb of this year. It was a foreclosure, only 3 years old, and in beautiful condition. All it needed was a fresh coat of paint, a good cleaning, and a few other minor cosmetic things. We moved in the middle of March and are having fun decorating it. It is in a very nice, quiet neighborhood with lots of families. I am so grateful for Troy for finding it. It is a house where we can raise our future family in. I am happy to say we won't be moving for a very long time because it is plenty big. Next time you are out in Cali, come visit us because we have lots of rooms.

I finally did it!

So, I decided to keep up with the trend and start a blog. I will try to be good about updating it so you know what's going on with Troy and I and our life here in Cali.
