Making Progress :)

This is a record I believe. I am posting more than once in a month! 
CRAZY!
Well to start off I am going to rant for a second on how much this blogger bugs me.
Maybe someone out there can help me with my issue. So I went to upload a photo
and it said my Blog photo space was full {more or less}.
You are allowed 1GB I believe and I have NO idea how I filled that,
nor did I know I had a space capacity.
ANYWAY so I found out where all my photos were being stored. 
All the photos posted on your blog get stored to some photo album storing program.
Well I found where they were all stored and I wanted to make room so I deleted a few.
Then my photo uploaded...and being smart I checked to make sure the other pictures I deleted were still on my blog. They were.....
Until the next day. Then I looked at my blog again and all the photos I had deleted to make room for my other photo from the photo storing album program, were GONE!
A BIG UGLY BLACK SPACE was in their place.
I was raging. REALLY?! Limit my photo space...guess that is why I have instagram...
dumb blogger people.
I mean I have the majority of the photos saved on my hard drive but that takes too much energy to go back and put them back on each post I now marked with ugly BLACK space :(
So although I am sure not many of you go back and look at any old photos of mine...if you do and they are gone...sorry :( 
Sad day for my blogging.

ON a higher note :)
I am here to keep the blogging going!
Our past week was an eventful one.
Johnny came to town for his spring break, Ty had 2 back to back bball games,
we went to Mattchew Ang's birthday shindig, the weather was AMAZING, we had a Rook night with the Kimball's and we were subs in Primary again this week.



Because the weather was so beautiful and my car was a nasty mess from that snow/slush mother nature has been throwing at us, I decided she deserved to be cleaned.
I forget how much fun car washes are. 
YES this is a picture of me enjoying the car wash :)
It is my favorite part when the fan comes on and the water starts to run off the car...
the droplets literally look like they run off the glass haha!


 Mattchew Ang is 23!!
OKAY how weird is it that him and I are the same age?!
Maybe it isn't weird for anyone but me.
I always felt like he was Ty's age because he has been friends with them forever.
Looks like we are only 7 months apart.
SPEAKING OF....it is my Star {Golden} Birthday this year!! 23 on the 23rd! YEAHYA!



So Saturday was an amazingly warm and NOT an indoor day in my eyes.
SO I got Ty to go play pickleball with me at his parents.
Since Johnny was in town we decided to have a 3 way tournament.
Well to my surprise {haha just kidding} Tyler & Johnny played the final game.
They OF COURSE made a bet on it. Loser takes winner to lunch.
AND OF COURSE it was Chick-Fil-A.
It was a fun Saturday :)
That night we went to eat at Milagros with the Kimball's and back to their place for Rook!
{mmmmm Milagros is so yummy}
I will apologize because I struggle taking "action" shots. Like while we are playing or at dinner...
that doesn't cross my mind until later. My bad.
We spent the rest of the night talking, playing Rook and being entertained by the dogs :)



 Ty loved these Portuguese Water dogs.
He feels like a king haha :)

So I decided to make a pinterest meal for my husby that I knew he would really like...
it definitely wasn't my first choice but I was pretty surprised how good it was.
{BUT I hate how it made my house smell...}
Sweet & Sour chicken and fried rice.

I did pull out the sandals since this nice weather decided to grace my life with it's warmness :)
Today I got to wear them. I love spring colors. I love warm days and sunshine.
SO excited for summer!
Got all sorts of plans I want to make happen this summer.


This summer + this guy + me = FIRST anniversary, travel, fun, sun, family and memories.
Cannot wait.

Update time :)

I know, I have struggled to stay updated on my blog posting. I did a little blog revamping and now I feel like I will blog more because I like it so much :) {I will try and that is all I can really promise} Let's start with "Love Day" {a.k.a. Valentines Day} I have never been one to expect flowers or gifts from a guy on this day but I never complain when I get any and all of those things. It is always nice to have them want to make you feel special and my husby does a REALLY good job to do that. I came home from work on February 14th to this:

 

STREAMERS and balloons everywhere
I loved it. 
He wasn't anywhere to be seen so I thought he was hiding in the closet or something.
But then I heard the door open and he said "Are you already home?"
Then He came to explain his wonderful surprise :)
He made his "Happy Valentines Day" sign himself ;) {adorable and as he said no pinterest necessary}
He got me a very beautiful flower arrangement as well as an incredibly cute maxi skirt.
Then his next surprise was He was making ME dinner :) :)
the note that brought me tears and the beautiful flowers :)
Heart shaped BBQ chicken pizza. Again I was very impressed :) 
{look how sweet that picture is of him tossing the dough in the air} 
He made it a very special day for me and then he had a basketball game that night
So I spent the night cheering T on, which is not so bad.

Another fun date night we had was when we went up to the Tree Room to have dinner.
{Ty got a killer deal on LivingSocial for FREE!}
I was all sorts of worried that the food was gonna be all weirdly fancy and unappealing.
I was wrong and not even mad about it.
We had a few date nights in the past non-blogging time that I captured photos of :)
We went on a Temple Date Night with SUSHI to top it off. {man I love that stuff}
About two weekend ago we went to the Cougarette Recital with Matson & Erica, which was awesome 
and before we all went to Spark to eat.
It was crazy because I hadn't been there since Ty and I had our reception there...great memories :)
At the Cougarette Recital

Our Temple Sushi Date Night. Love these nights :)
 So to top all this fun off, we all got to go to the Utah Student 25 again this year, thanks to John. It was a lot of fun, surprisingly. I actually really do love seeing what new businesses are out there especially ones that students have started themselves. The top 5 usually blow my mind with their revenue as students in college...dedication is what that is. We had a chance to talk to one of the top 5 guys and after he told us all how he got to where he is and everything in between, it was really eye opening.
Impressive. He has met with reps for Lady Gaga and Lady Gaga herself, as well as Ashton Kutcher. They had him and his wife meet them at a "party" in downtown LA 
{ended up being an after party for the MTV Music Awards I believe}
He has Google wanting to buy his company {or already has}
Him and his friends started the business called ScanMe {scan.me}
Way cool.
Well this doesn't make up for my lack of blogging but I will be doing this more.
I need to because I need to keep my life captured somewhere {besides Instagram hehe :) }

I have been having back flashes of Ty and I. How far we have come.
All we have gone through together and the journey.
We have almost been married A YEAR!
So this picture is called for.
Our very first picture together. 
I just get a kick out of how much we have both changed.
