This weekend we had Clayton's high school reunion. We had dinner beforehand with his close group of friends from San Diego which was really nice. I am so glad his friends decided to plan something where we could sit and visit with each other. Since I haven't been to my reunion yet I wasn't sure what to expect. It was fun meeting lots of people that knew Clayton in high school and funny to hear all of their stories they had. We were especially glad Dave and Julie decided to go. We love hanging out with them and are so glad we have them as friends. It was a fun night and really made me excited for mine to come in a couple of years.

On Friday this group of lovely ladies got together to celebrate Lisa's birthday.
Lisa you are one of the most fun, generous, kind, beautiful girls I know.
Happy birthday we love you!

Lakeside

This past weekend Clayton and I were lucky to have a nice weekend trip to the mountains with his side of the family. We stayed at a beautiful cabin in Lakeside and enjoyed the cool weather. The boys played golf and the girls went hiking and antique shopping. It was a weekend full of good food and great company. On Friday evening, Clayton took me horse back riding and we had so much fun! It has been years since I have been on a horse but it was just like riding a bike. We went up through the mountains and had some incredible scenery. We left the cabin on Saturday night and went straight to the opening night of the Greek restaurant Athena in Scottsdale. The food was so delicious and the crowd was so fun. I love the energy Greeks have!

Date night

Last night I had date night. A date night with my sister Chelsey and Lady GaGa. We decided last minute that it was silly we weren't at the concert since we had both been singing "Bad Romance" all day long. Problem solved thanks to our scalper friend we made outside the arena. It definitely turned into an exciting night. She sounded great and her wardrobe did NOT disappoint. I knew it was going to be awesomely weird but I was not prepared for how strange it actually was. Thanks for being spontaneous with me Chels! My only regret is forgetting my camera.

This one of the outfits she wore during the concert. I don't know how she moved in it!

Wedding Fun

I love weddings and a couple of weeks ago we had the chance to go to 2! The weather in Utah was absolutely perfect. Asher and Hayley's wedding was on Friday and was so beautiful. Then, on Saturday we had Brenna and Eli's wedding. It was so much fun spending time with family and friends. I didn't have my camera most of the time but we were able to get some good pictures. We also had the chance to stay with Kristen and Garrett for a night and finally meet little Wesley. He is seriously so adorable I love him to pieces.

3 years ago I somehow tricked Clayton into marrying me. It was the smartest thing I have done in my whole life! He melts my heart. He makes me want to be a better person, friend, and wife. He loves me unconditionally. He makes me smile and laugh uncontrollably. He completes me! I thank my Heavenly Father every day for putting him in my life. I don't know what I did to deserve him but I am so glad he is mine forever.
