Cozumel

Cozumel was my favorite stop. The weather was great and the water and beaches were beautiful! The snorkeling was the best!


Blue, Blue water!

Me and Isaac


Chillin' on the beach


The whole gang





My dad looks hardcore, right?


Paradise

All of us with our tour guide


Mmmm...a smoothie in an overpriced coconut. Another one of my favorites!



That will now conclude my posts of our cruise. We had a BLAST! Thanks Mom & Dad!!! Should I plan on this next year? Same time same place?


Leap Day....

Well, it was 4 years ago that I met Isaac. We met at Logan Lanes on Leap Day. Who meets the person they end up marrying on Leap Day? I guess I do. For those of you that know Isaac--it is pretty fitting. He thinks this way he gets out of one of all the cheesy anniversaries that I come up with. Technically, we can only celebrate the day we met once every 4 years.

4 years ago--my life definitely changed..........FOR THE BETTER. I really can't imagine my life without him. He is my best friend, he makes me laugh daily and he brings a big fat smile to my face when I think about him. That is what it is all about...right?

love you babe!


Oh yeah, he is extremely good looking :)

and...he looks good in a sombrero (not everyone can pull it off)HAPPY LEAP DAY!

Grand Cayman

Grand Cayman was super beautiful (and clean). The water was amazingly blue. Most of the pictures that I took were with our underwater camera that I still haven't developed. We went swimming with the stingrays and fed them. I freaked out and kept thinking I was going to be killed by one of them. Old ladies would come up to me and hold my hand and tell me that everything was ok. Ashlee would laugh at me and then do the exact same I was doing if a stingray brushed up against her.


Leaving our ship to head to the island.

Jamaica mon


Jamaica was our first stop. It was beautiful, yet dirty. They obviously have no laws against littering. The weather was perfect and we saw some amazing things though.




We ran into a typical Jamaican dude (what I always pictured anyway)...he was high/drunk as can be with dread locks. He was dancing and singing by the beach talking to every tourist there while drinking some kind of Jamaican beer. He kept telling me how he wants to find a wife, a white girl who looks just like me. Isaac didn't seem the slightest bit jealous or worried that this skinny, drunk dude would win me over....


I thought it was so funny that they put 'piss house' on the side of the building pointing to the bathroom. I must live a sheltered life and needed a picture as proof. I know I am lame, but where in the U.S. can you see something like that? Nowhere I have ever been....It is possible that I need to get out more.


Me, Carlie, Dad, Ashlee getting ready to pick and eat some pineapples.



This was my mini pineapple that I picked. Isn't it cute? I loved it..


Just in case anyone was wondering who I love....



At a beautiful hotel that overlooked Jamaica



The whole gang at the beach...Isaac, me, Ashlee, Bart, Dad, Mom, Josh, Carlie



Some Jamaican kids we hung-out with after we all decided to invade their school. Don't worry the principal was cool with us disturbing the whole place. I admit I wanted to take a few of these cuties home with me.

Va-Va-Va-Vacation!

The Cruise was AWESOME! The best souvenir I came home with was a suntan/sunburn (I managed the sunburn on the first day...this seems to be a trend with me). I took a billion pictures....


Here we are getting ready for the ship to take off!

My cute parents getting crazy at dinner




Me and Isaac



Isaac's new girlfriend...She was letting it all hang out while I tried to keep things G-rated




We boogied on the dance floor. Isaac dipped me and Ashlee totally stole my thunder and stepped in from of the picture.



The pole dancing class got pretty intense



These four culprits will remain nameless. (cough Dad, Isaac, Bart, Ashlee cough) Apparently, they kicked all the old men that were playing shuffle board out and played for themselves. In Isaac's defense....look at his form. The old men could never pull that off...........

My Valentine...

How did you meet your Valentine ?
Answer all the questions HONESTLY . . . .
1. Where did you meet? This is pretty scandalous...I was on a date that I wasn't to thrilled about. We went bowling and I saw a cute guy in the next lane. We made eye contact the whole time (I made sure my date didn't see) and eventually had to step away from the group I was with to take a phone call.....well, Isaac came up to me and said, "So are you going to be babysitting these guys all night, or what?" Pretty bold!! I hurried and rambled off my # and he left. He called me later that night (after a few calls to the wrong number)......from then on it was him that I was going on dates with. But he is still afraid to take me bowling :)

2. What was the first thought that went through your head when you met? Ahhh...I wish I was hanging out with him instead.....

3. Do you remember what she/he was wearing? Whoa....I have no clue. But I remember what I was wearing that night.

4. Where was the first time you kissed this person? It was on our first date in his bedroom (very PG though..I promise)

5. How did he/she ask you out? When I called him back the next day he asked me out over the phone.

6. Where did you go for your first date? We went to an amazing Italian restaurant and then we went to a movie....the movie was lame. But the butterflies I got when we held hands made up for it!

7.How long did you know this person before you became a couple? We didn't put a title on it for about 6 months.

8. Has this person ever proposed to you? He sure has...

9. Do you and this person have kids together? Not yet...

10. Have you ever broken the law with this person? Is it breaking the law if you don't get caught?

11. When was the first time you realized that you liked this person? I obviously liked him right away...but he was nothing like I expected him to be. He is so fun to be with...i fell hard pretty quick.

12. Do you get along with any of the ex's of your partner? I have never met any ex's---but I doubt I would ever be best friends with any of them if I did.

13. Do you trust this person? Yep.

14. Do you see your partner in your future? Oh yeah, he is stuck with me!

15. Whats the most expensive thing this person has given you? Ummm...my wedding ring.

16. What is one thing he/she does that gets on ur nerves. He has a lot of energy and tends to run and jump on me or run into me.....which sometimes leads to me getting hurt. (But he does feel really bad when it happens and I didn't have any brothers---so maybe this is just the way boys are??!)
17. What is the thing you do that gets on his/her nerves? I would like to say NOTHING I do gets on his nerves...but I am sure there are MANY things! One thing he told me he wanted me to work on was not turning his clothes pink when I wash them. How is it that red things always sneak in the wash and turn his stuff (for some reason this NEVER happens to my clothes...hmmm) pink? I promise there is no conspiracy against him and his clothes.
18. Where do you see each other in 15 years from now? Together, happy, in love, older.

19.Will this person repost this? Ummm. no. He hardly knows what a blog is. I would be suprised if he even reads it.

LOVE YOU ISAAC!!!

Arizona snow storm

This is a big deal! Everyone has been posting pictures of all the snow in Utah. Although I wouldn't go as far as to say I was jealous of the weather there....but i was bored with the weather here. It is so predictable. Well, it threw me off yesterday and snowed (hailed) here!.....kind of (the downpour lasted for about 35 seconds and melted in 1 minute). I say it counts as snow, but the weatherman may disagree. Yeah, I don't have to shovel like the rest of you---but check out the cold, wet stuff that we got here yesterday!!!




I didn't even care that my plant is all but dead from the cold.......




There it is!!!





BRRRRR!
