Sanchez Family Reunion

A few weeks ago we had a crazy good time with the Sanchez family. It started with a Sanchez family reunion down in Price Utah, then a trip to Lagoon, and ended with a lot of the family running in the Wasatch Back Ragnar.

Zack's cousins all love him (or at least like to poke him)

So happy with Grandma Connie and a cup

Yes he is wearing Zack's hat

Fil's dad was nice and watched Zack so we could go on some roller coasters.

One of our favorites.

Waiting for the Ferris Wheel.

Looking at the sights on the top of the Ferris Wheel. He didn't like the wind very much.

Spit Bubble from Xenia!

Riding the train!

Stanley, Xenia, and Rex waiting in line for the boats.

Sleeping in the stroller.

Stanley would turn the steering wheel all the way to one side and then let go and just spin in his bumper car.

We had tons of fun! Thanks Sanchez Family!!!

The Garden: Redone

I am sad to say that a lot of our plants didn't make it. The watermelon, cantaloupe, zucchini, yellow squash and cucumbers all got eaten by bugs or destroyed by fungus. By the time we sprayed them it was too late :(

So we bought some "pre-grown" plants and they have survived the last few weeks.
Here are some pictures:

The tomato plants are getting cute little tomatoes!

Watermelon.

Onions

Cantaloupe

Our mini corn field.

Learning how to grow a garden is really fun. I might be a little obsessed with weeding though. We went on a walk the other day and I almost started picking the weeds growing in the sidewalk!

Zack - 4 Months

Zack is 4 months old already!

Some thoughts about him:
-he loves to laugh
-he can roll over (back to tummy) when he is on our bed but when he is on the floor he only goes to his side
-he has really learned how to scream when he is hungry or tired
-he started sleeping in his crib in his room instead of the cradle in our room
-he has some nice rolls, especially his thighs (we call them thunder thighs)
-he has two little teeth on the bottom

Here are some of our favorite pictures of him (sorry if they are blurry, I took most of them with my phone camera)

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!
