out at dinner at the Cheescake for Woody and Shani's birthdays

Wood and I had a blast playing with the babies

us at the orange county fair

The always growing Albright Family

our last night on the beach

The water was so cold I would not go in without a wet suit!!





Woody and I had the amazing opportunity of going on the annual Albright vacation - a week at the beach!! Unfortunately this year it was a bit chillier than us but we still had an absolute blast. We spent a day going to Hunnington Beach to look at the shops, we went to the wedge, to the orange county fair and then spent some time lounging on the beach!!!

When out in the water woody was never ok with staying towards the shallow with the little waves he always had to go out and catch the big ones.. sadly they tossed him quite a few times. but we still had an absolute BLAST and are counting down until next years!!! Thanks to momma and poppa Albright for the vaca!!!

Being an Auntie..

This summer I have been lucky to spend some quality time with my cute little niece and nephew. Heather and Jordan's babysitter is kind of a wiener so lately Kherrington has been coming over to our house 2-3 times a week for us to babysit her, and she is just the cutest little girl!! Woody babysat her all the time at first since I was doing work and school but now I have been able to do a couple of days myself. It's a good thing to because she started to favor Woody but now she loves me more! :) I love it when Kherrington comes over especially when Woody is at work because then I have somone to play with and she is so dang cute and fun!

Baby Brighton took a little more convincing for him to love us. When Brighton was first born I spent a lot of time helping Shani out with him and me and him bonded.. but then life got busy and we lost our bond :( However, Woody and I just spent the night at Shani and chris' while they went out for their anniversary. They left while Brighton was asleep so when he woke up me, Heather and Kherrington went to get him. When Brighton first saw me he looked like he was about to cry but then he saw his first love, Kherrington and everything was GREAT! I'm pretty sure that sealed the deal with baby B because he loved me from then on!! This morning when I went to get him from his crib I was greeted but the cutest smile! and he even slept the whole night through and did not wake up until 7:30.

I absolutely love spending time with these little guys and it makes me excited to some day have my own little tikes running around the house. I've always been a sucker for little kids, but what's even better is watching Woody play with them.. he's so cute :)

A year ago today

A year ago today Woody and I got engaged!!! Woody was up in Kansas City selling pest control and I was able to fly up and stay with him over the fourth of July. Unfortunately Woody still had to work so I spent my days hanging out in his apartment reading and watching movies and trying to stay busy to not be too bored. But then we got to hang out at night. On Sunday we toured some church history sites and ended up at Adam-Ondi-Ahman where Woody popped the question!! The jewler was supposed to send the ring up but they forgot, luckily Woody's friend's mom was coming up also and brought the ring with her. I was so excited to finally be officially engaged and spent the rest of the summer planning our wedding!!!

A year later Woody and I are considerably less tan at this date but hope to improve this later on in the summer! But we are happily married and love spending all of our time with each other. I could not have asked for a more loving and patient husband who spends all day in bed with me while I moan and groan about being sick instead of at a pool party with his family.. He's the best!!!
