Pioneer children sang

Brandon and I had the wonderful opportunity to be youth conference parents for trek. Many people were very worried about me because of my pregnant condition. I thought I would be fine and everything would be great. boy was I wrong. The weather was about 106F and after walking about four and half miles I began to feel the heat take its toll.

We were blessed to have wonderful children in our group who were very cooperative, at about 7:38 pm, Friday night we told them that both of their parents had died. How sad is that? The doctor and nurse who were on the trek took great care of me, and sent me home because it wasn't worth it for me to keep on trekking. Such a bummer!! It makes me so much more grateful for the pioneers especially the pregnant women. I do not know how they did it, but Heavenly Father blessed them with the strength to carry on.

I was very sad to leave, but it was definitely the right thing to do. I wouldn't want to put our son in any danger. Brandon was such a good husband and he came with me to take care of me. He was so supportive and just wanted the best for me. He was so cute in all of his pioneer attire.

I thank the Pioneers for all of the sacrifices that were made in my behalf.

I was pretty bummed that I didn't take much pictures. We had a specific color and a name. Here is the photos I have.

I Love My Family

This past week my mother and sister came in to town to spend some time with Brandon and I. It was so wonderful to see them. We went shopping, to the beach, and we even saw High School Musical on Broadway. It was so fun to be with them. They cleaned my entire apartment while I was at work. What angels!!!

My mom brought me about 25 boy clothes, it was so exciting. I can't wait to change his clothes 3 times a day just so he can wear all of the cute outfits.

Family I just love you

No Doubt About It!

He's showin off already!

Here's a good one too

It's a Boy

Brandon and I so are excited to let all of our family and friends know that we are having a boy.

A Joyful Celebration

After 4 years and 3 different schools I am very excited and proud to say, I did it!!! I graduated with a Communications Major, emphasis in Public Relations. It was an amazing weekend. My super amazing grandma and dad were here. Brandon's great family also took the time out to celebrate this wonderful achievement with me. I was very excited for the shopping and the cute graduation dress I was going to get. Thanks to Jennifer and my grandma, we almost bought the entire store. I now have clothes that will last my entire pregnancy. ( not to mention, how stylish and cute each piece is!) It was such a happy day for me, especially being with family. My dad was so wonderful and hosted a beautiful Thai lunch at the #1 Thai Restaurant in Southern California. We outdid ourselves with noodles, curries, stir fries and the best of all sticky rice and mango. Thanks Dad!!! I was a little bit scared as to what Brandon's family might think of Thai food since they never have had it before, but they absolutely loved it. Brandon's dad said, "it was the best meal of his life".

The day was wonderful except for the scorching heat. I graduated in 103 degree weather. I felt so bad for all of the people who were the last to go. By the time everyone had gone through they started leaving. There was no one to watch the last three rows go through. ( l left, but my professor told me that pregnant ladies shouldn't be in this heat. it was great to have that excuse).

I forgot to mention one last thing. The best gift that was given to me ever. The clothes, flowers and presents were of course wonderful, but it doesn't beat the pregnancy massage Brandon gave me. I will be going to the #1 rated spa in Orange County for a day of pampering. I am so excited and can't wait to go. I will be able to soak in salt bathes and get manicures, pedicures and than a relaxing massage for the baby and me. I can't wait. Happy Graduation to me!!!!

Tres de Mayo

We just got back from a great night at a friends house celebrating the 3rd of May. The party was complete with tortillas, home-made salsa, carnitas and my favorite pinanta (full of candy). Brandon and I won the award for best mexican dressed. We decided to dress up as Mexican gangsters. Brandon drew tattoos all over his body. and he decided to give me an eyebrow makeover. We look great with this new look!!!

We went to the 5 for 10 store and bought these rad shirts to wear. I actually bought the same shirt I wore tonight for a present to my brothers.
