Yosemite Labor day weekend adventure


Stephen and I met up with my family (Scot &Miriam with the kids, mom & Dad, and Steve). We were there all weekend! It was soo dirty, but so fun. It was Stephen's first time there, he totally loved it!

We rode our bikes all over the valley, ate S'mores, tried to hunt for bears, saw deer, went to the visitor center, went down to the river and let Cobra swim (he was not happy). Even went over to the Yosemite cemetery.

Everything was fun. It was hot there!!!




Everything was sooo pretty, but I was sooo sad because there was no water in the falls and very low in the rivers. But, we still had tons of fun!
Chad was way into the marshmallow roasting stick.
We are the tortilla face family, it got somewhat bored around the fire. You have to entertain yourself somehow!
The drive was just took long though! I give Stephen props for driving all the way there and basically all the way back. BEST NATIONAL PARK I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO!!

Driver's license & labor day weekend




I went to the DMV today and only waited about 15 minutes. I got my new license with my new name. I can't wait to get it in the mail. Everything went sooo smoothly and I am even going to get a new picture on it :)




I am also looking forward to Labor Day weekend. We are leaving tomorrow for Yosemite National Park. I can't wait to camp. It will be nice to get away from reality for the weekend!

My First Young Women's lesson







I did excellent today on my first young women's lesson at church. The lesson was on scripture study. I feel pretty confident that I got the message across. i don't meant to sound cocky, but i felt really good about it afterwards. I. Thanks for all the support from the leaders and Young women. It made it so much easier with the feedback. I was just called a few weeks ago to the beehive advisor in young womens. I am feeling much better now. I am trying to achieve my calling as much as I can.
My main message in my lesson was to read a little of your scriptures a day and you will guaranteed have the comfort and strength you need to get through the day. GUARANTEE!!
I feel sooo much better today than what I have been feeling lately. I have finally seen everything in perspective. Its hard. But I know I can handle it. I can handle anything after what my lives trials have been since I was 18.
Jesus Christ said :
" The way may be difficult at times, but i will always be there"
"He never said it would never be easy, but he did say it would be worth it.'

Name change! What a pain!



Today I had to go to the Social Security office to get my name changed. It actually went very smoothly. I went by my Human resources so they are aware and also tried for the DMV. If anyone know torrance DMV its a joke. The line was WAY out the door and the lady came out and said " we are short staffed and only have 3 people working, so thats why the line isn't moving" So i said screw that....im going to go early next week. SO that was my day today.

Our new life together



Stephen and I just got married recently on June 13, 2008 in the Newport Beach temple. I have decided to start a blog for the both of us. We live in Palos Verdes right now. But would like to buy a house next year and live in the San Diego area. We are so excited!!! But, no babies yet. We are both working full time so Stephen would say I am always stressed out. I will post some pics of the wedding.
