Wedding

Oh P.S... we scheduled our temple date yesterday! We are so excited!

Juan and I put down a deposit on a new apartment yesterday. We have been trying to buy a house, but things just aren't working out quite yet. And we are so tired of driving from Ogden everyday we could barf! So..last weekend we set out on a hunt for a new apt. for the summer.
I told juan the conditions to us getting an apartment were:

1. Not in Mexiville

2. Had to have washer/dryer or at least hook-ups so he could buy me a set

3. Had to have a pool so I can swim with the kids

4. Needs to have a fitness center so we don’t get fat

5. I have to feel safe being home alone

So, we finally found an apartment in Riverton. It's big enough for all of us, and in a nice area.
So yesterday Juan asked if all the conditions are met with the new apt. I said yes, I think we’re good!

Wedding Plans

So...as some of you might know...we are planning a wedding! When Juan and I did it the first time we eloped in Vegas! No family, no pictures...nothing! Just us, and some crazy Vegas preacher man married us in the little chapel of the flowers. So--a year and a half later-we are having a party! Juan and I are going to go through the temple on July 19th, and after we are having the reception we never took the time to have!

I love this cake! I stumbled on this website one day (onesweetslice.com), and found the most amazing cake decorator ever-and she happend to be in UTAH! So, I scheduled a cake tasting appointment with her! I told her I pretty much want this cake-or something very similar. I'm excited!
We picked out our invitations on Monday, and since I loved the pink and brown ones-I decided the reception colors will be pink and brown. Planning a wedding is hard work-but I think it will be fun to have the actual party! We can't wait!

Juan is growing up!

So my cute husband got the priesthood yesterday. To some of you this is no big deal, but to us it was really exciting! Juan has changed so much since we got married, for the better! He has turned into this really amazing man that I always knew he was. I am so proud of him, and am excited for our future!
