Our Sweet Anniversary!!!

(When we were dating 05')
(Sealed in the Fresno Temple a year after we eloped 06')

So last week Bryan and I celebrated our 5 Years Anniversary, we basically sat around eating a bag of Ruffles Cheddar Potato Chips reminiscing about the past...if you know the story behind this you would be laughing...but I know most of you probably don't know so here I go with the long story...

Five years ago, I worked for a small company called AIS Market Research, I had been working there for a little over two years..Bryan worked there for about seven months. If you knew me back then I was super bashful and isolated myself from people, although, I learned a valuable lesson from a good dear sister of mine who had been working there longer then I did and knew the environment very well and the people there. You think that people you talk to and trust at work are your friends...but NOoo, they turned out to be your worst enemies(only at AIS).. so I kept my distance for over two years, it was pretty mundane, went to work, clocked in and sat in my cubicle being productive and getting quotas left to right.. Until one day I saw Bryan, I really did not think much about him to be quite honest, I noticed he was always surrounded by a bunch of girls just "squirming" all over him, kid you not, also saw girls going in and out of his car every lunch break(friendly invitation says Bryan, he claimed that he was the only available guy there to carpool with![SURE])...I think I was the only girl who had never been inside his car even until this day...dude even my sister was in his car! Lol. But yah, he had this old red Nissan but sold it after we got married. Anyway, we all went on our ten minute break, (thank goodness for the nearby gas station we had across from work) so I go in and buy the usually..16 ounce Pepsi (bottled) and a bag of chips (Ruffles Cheddar), minding my own busy didn't talk to anyone except for my older sister.. break was almost over and I VIVIDLY remembered folding my bag of chips and placing it on the counter in the break room unaware that Bryan had done the same with his bag of chips, lol. Ok, so lunch came around and we all clocked out and the first thing I grabbed before leaving the building was my bag of chips. We had about ten minutes left of lunch and I remembered seeing Bryan in the break room with "all the girls"...(didn't impress me much!) lol Anyway, I could see him talking and he looked sort of mad, so I came in the break room only to hear him being sarcastic saying..."Oh, well, I could've had more chips to eat but someone had to steal my bag of chips that I had on the counter!" I was furious saying, "Well, this is my bag, if you got a problem I suggest you take it outside!" (gave him the stink eye) Everyone looked and it was dead silent. Then we all went back to work and a minute after clocking in I noticed they switched cubicles around and guess who I had to sit next to? Yup, Bryan! I was not looking forward... 30 minutes into working, Bryan slipped me a little note.. befriended me then apologized for the mixed up with the bag of chips.I forgave him. Somehow a small, innocent note became "love" notes! lol. I must admit though after getting to know him through many notes(that we had been "secretly" passing to each other everyday) I started having feelings for this guy and I knew he did with me too!...I could see it through his action and his eyes the way he talked to me...he was really sweet and sincere! After many "love" notes I noticed Bryan "checking me out" and trying to ask people at work about me and I remembered everyone telling him, "dude, you don't stand a chance!" The reason for that was because of my sister who was really strict and overly protective of me at the time, she told every guy at work (who tried to ask about me) that there was no way that I will ever date them and back off! Over my dead body! These were some of the things she would say to them and other words.. I will not share...lol. Honestly, I think she was just looking out for my best interest, just like a big sister would! Also, every time Bryan would ask about me, she made up lies and embarrassing stories about me that was not true...I mean embarrassing! lol But even that did not stop him from liking me. We had to "secretly" see each other after work just so no one would see us together! After it became official that we were boyfriend and girlfriend, people started gossiping at work. I did not not like that I was being talked upon and it was hard to go back to work. SO one afternoon Bryan and I decided to go out...the day we were both off from work and he drove me to his parents house, we sat in the living room for a short while and it was quiet, he looked at me and said in his patriarchal blessings it wrote that he shouldn't put off marriage if he feels like she is the one for him and he told me after many prayers he came to the realization that I was the one for him and he never felt this way before...I felt the same with him too.. after dating for only 2 months, but we knew each other longer then 2 months...yes, you heard me, "2 MONTHS! Crazy but true!" He said to me (can't remember the exact words), "let's go downtown to the courthouse and marry me!"...I didn't waste anytime and said, "OK!" So after we eloped, we drove back to his parents house and I remembered saying, "ok, well, that was fun, I will see you next week ok?" He looked at me and was like, "Ummm, we're married now, that means you live with me.." I was so scared and naive, I told him, "what?" So, I called my parents that day told them what had happened and I moved in that night with Bryan and his family! We then got pregnant 7 months after we eloped and had Eligh and now we're expecting baby #2! Life is sweet, who knew we were destined to be together after a small confrontation over a bag of chips! Plus, Bryan and his Mom knew my mom before they had met me because my mom went to Clovis 7th Ward with them, wow the Lord really wanted us together! Haha

Sorry for boring you with my endless story!Lol. Also, we celebrated Bryan's 27th Birthday/Our Anniversary at Chili's on Bryan's Birthday! Fun, Fun!

Bryan is mad at me now. He said I spilled to much info....ooops, I can't stop writing! Haha

A slide show of the past... few months!!



Hmmm....apparently I have been away too long, it's not that I gave up blogging...I have been sick for quite some time...3 months if you haven't noticed! Those of you who don't know why...well, I am pregnant!!! Surprise, Surprise!! Haha I am approximately 17 weeks and 1 day today and we find out January 13th, the sex of the baby and I am SOOO excited!!! Now that I am in my second trimester, things are looking good! I think about FOOD all the time! So, I lost about 16 pounds in the first trimester and last week I finally gained...3 pounds, YAY!!!! Haha I know it is not much but it's normal.. Also, the baby is about the size of a sweet potato and I felt its first kick last week! So exciting!

So enjoy the slide show of the past...few months that I have been away! Haha

Yosemite!!!

Before I start blogging about my life story...and the hike at Glacier Point, let me remind you all, I have never worked out in my whole life!! Ever since I had Eligh(over 3years ago), the only work out I did/do was/is walk back and forth to the mail box, and back and forth inside my apartment, maybe around the complex on a good day. Lol. Yeah, I know, I know how sad!

So, we did a 5.5 mile hike last Saturday(I honestly don't know how I did it), thanks to my in-laws, Steve and Sharlene, they were kind enough to invite us, I thought it was an excellent choice for our little family outings, I was excited and it was actually fun...until the hike!!!!!!! What an accomplishment it was for me to complete a 5.5 mile hike! I was almost dead by the time we got back to the car, I couldn't breathe, my legs were literally blue, I almost had a heart attack! Plus, we made it back just in time for darkness to arrive, I was certainly not looking forward to camping out with the bears! However, the scenery was absolutely breath taking, I love nature! I can see why people go whenever they get a chance to, it is a neat experience. If you ask me if I would do it again....probably not..the hike that is, maybe next year or two. Lol. Although, I don't mind camping!!! haha

Half Dome, I want to hike there someday!

Grandpa and Eligh
Breath taking views!!!
This was worth the trip!
The hikers!!
Our final stop before heading back!
The water was icy coold!!
My sister in-law Sharlene and I.
I guess you could say this picture was well worth the hike! Haha
Bryan and Eligh. The kids threw rocks here and grandpa threw big rocks, and it made a big splash, all the kids were screaming and yelling having the time of their lives!
Domenic and some grand-kids! We are so grateful for Domenic, without him, I don't know how we could have survive the hike, he helped carry Eligh when our weak bodies couldn't take anymore of it!

Overall, we went home sore as ever. Last week I came down with the sickness and was bedridden for days, I caught the flu...no not swine flu, thank God! The trip was neat overall, thanks for the invite guys, you know who you are! We had a blast...minus the pain! haha Oh and by the way, it has been like 4 days since the hike and I am still recovering, how sad! My legs hurt so much, but I think by tomorrow, I should be ok, with the help of my Asian balm!

Baked Pancake!!

My sweet and loving husband Bryan, was so kind enough to make me this for breakfast....it tasted SO scrumptious!! What a Sweetheart...he BAKED this all for me from scratch! That has never happen before...EVER...well....from the help of his mom of course, he called her this morning to get the recipe, I was a little hesitant about eating it(considering Bryan has never cooked in his life, well not exactly true, sometimes though...), but now I can't stop thinking about it! It was surprisingly GOOD!!!!!!! MMMM... We sat around in our pj's stuffin' our faces with yummy baked pancakes, while listening to General Conference. Ahhhh.......

This pancake was Monstrous!! We sprinkled tons of powdered sugar on top and syrup on the side, it was DIVINE!!! (Bryan did an excellent job on it, it was fun to watch!)
