Florida Vacation

Last Week Gabe and I went to Florida and had a crazy but fun time. We spend a couple days at Grandma and Grandpa Wade's house, saw some alligators and other cool wildlife. Then we went down to St Augustine where we stayed in an Octogonish shaped house. It was a lot of people in one house, but we all were right on a beautiful beach. We got to do some boogie boarding, tanning, and lots of fun games with the family. Besides having fun in the sun we went to Florida for Dave and Dana's Wedding. The bride and Groom looked beautiful and happy and the wedding was absolutely wonderful. We are so excited for Dana to join the family. The Orlando Temple was gorgeous and I love going into the temple and feeling the spirit. It is such an amazing opportunity to watch two people be sealed together. Weddings always remind me of mine and Gabe's wedding and the promises we made to each other. At my own wedding I hardly remember one word that was said, so it is always nice to hears the words again to reflect on. All in all the vacation was great, but next vacation I definitely need more beach time and more relaxing, I kind of feel like I need a vacation to get over my exhaustion from our vacation.

The Big 25

Well I am a quarter of century now. I turned 25 yesterday. I bet if someone asked me 10 years ago or even 5 years ago where I would be at 25. I would of never thought things would be as they are. But I am happy and Gabe and I are loving life. Heavenly Father has truly blessed us with so many things. I have had a great life so far. There have been some struggles, but all in all I can't complain. Life is Good. Thanks to all my friends who helped me celebrate my birthday and all my family that called. We had a great lunch with friends and then on Sunday I made an awesome Ice Cream cake and of course we broke a utensil trying to serve it (probably because it was a cheese slicer and Gabe was using as a spatula) Oh well Fun Times and lots of sugar, what more could a girl ask for.
