Our Trip To Manti

A few weeks ago we were able to go down to Manti, UT to visit with family and help celebrate Felipe's Grandparents 60th wedding anniversary.

On Sunday, after church, we were able to walk around the grounds of the Manti Temple. It was so fun to take pictures and enjoy the beauty of the Temple.

We really enjoyed spending the weekend (and week before and after) with Felipe's momma!

Good times all around - as you can tell by the awkward picture of Felipe...

We stayed at the "Manti Motel" which was interesting to say the least. The office was also a movie rental store, a pizza restaurant, and an ice cream parlor. The motto of the motel was "Drop your mail in any of our mailboxes and we guarantee postage!" exactly what I imagined a motel motto to be...

If you noticed we totally forgot to get pictures at the wedding anniversary party so... if anyone has any fun ones we would love to see them, maybe you could email them to us?? Have a great weekend!

Experiencing Utah

This summer I really want to experience all that Utah has to offer. I realized that I may not like Provo, but there are some pretty cool places in Utah to visit. Here are some things that I really want to do as soon as possible:

-Hike to Timp caves
-Hike or mountain bike on trails near Salt Lake
-Bridal Veil Falls
-Zions National Park
-Bryce National Park
-Arches National Park
-take pictures downtown Salt Lake
-Alpine Loop
-the Great Salt Lake (and Antelope Island)
-Price to visit Sally (Felipe's sister)

Is there anything I missed?

March is here!

One thing I really have come to dislike is February. The last few years it seems like I am tortured during the entire month! Let me explain...

If I could wear flip flops all year round I would. As you can imagine, winter in Utah doesn't make that task easy. So I suffer through winter, which generally starts in October. By the time February rolls around I am sick and tired of the cold.

BUT... it is March now!!! Today just felt oh so warm (probably only a few degrees warmer than yesterday). I am ready to go shopping for some flip flops, anyone want to come?!

The Beginnings

It all started when me, my roommate and my brother wanted to play a game of basketball but our ball was flat. We decided to go over to Felipe's apartment (not knowing he even existed - but we did know his roommate had a basketball we could use). It ended up that Felipe's roommate invited himself and Felipe to come play with us.

During the game we both tried to flirt with each other (I say "tried" for a reason here...). After the game, sadly enough, we didn't end up seeing much of each other for a few months. Here and there we would see each other at church and say hi and eventually we decided that we needed to hang out. We ended up going to a movie and having the theater to ourselves. About a week later we went to another movie and flirted a lot more over this week or so. Finally on Feb 16th we became a couple and have been happy ever since!
