beginning of beautiful weather

my cute husband and I

cute sister Tami

So today we got to play tennis in this almost 80 degree weather. It felt amazing to be outside and feel the warmth. It was a bit windy, but that made it all the more fun. Lloyd and I played against my mother and sister Tami. We played for awhile before Lloyd had to go to Priesthood session. This is one of my most favorite weekends because it's Conference weekend! I love watching conference and feeling so good. It was fun to have a nice day for conference so we could go out and enjoy the weather. I am so excited for this beautiful weather that is approaching. Although living in Utah, the weather could change in a minute from 80 degree weather to snow. So hopefully it stays pretty warm throughout the summer. Loving this day and can't wait for more to come!

mom, me, tami

we had some fun :)

Lloyd the love of my life

How did I marry the cutest man alive? Well poor guy. This week has been CRAZY. Let me tell you what all he is involved in; First off, he is taking 16 credit hours at BYU and will be graduating in April. WAHOO! Second, he works 40 hours a week and works hard at his job. Third, he tutors four eight year olds in Chinese and finds time to fit that all in AND he still finds time to hang out with me. He is amazing. This week he not only took 3 exams, have many conference calls for work, got another student to tutor, He found time to do our taxes. Really... I am amazed and feel so blessed to have such a wonderful husband who works so hard because he is "doing this for his wife and future family" in his own words. This week has been insanely busy, but Saturday (tomorrow) we are going to Park City for the night! We are so excited. Since we got to tend our little twin nephews a couple months ago for a couple of days, their parents are taking us to spend a night in Park City. Woot woot! Though it will be a mini mini getaway, it's still needed and I cannot wait to be away for a minute or two. Thanks to a husband who takes such good care of me while being super busy.

Get better Dad!

My poor cute dad. His MS has beaten him up again. He has been doing amazingly good for a very long time..but it just has to come back hard. He has not been feeling the best lately and is getting the spasms back in his legs. It's weird how it happens. His legs just jump around. While at a meeting, he started to feel something coming on and he got up and fell. They had the paramedics come and take him to the hospital. His whole body was shaking and the paramedics had told him it was a seizure. When they got him to the ER, they did some tests and tried to calm his spasms but it took awhile. He then was brought up to his room at the hospital and is now trying to recover. His spasms are just wanting to bother him today. They are going to be doing more tests today. I took the day off so I could be with him while my mom had to be in and out. I have been here all day and wouldn't rather be anywhere else than taking care of my dad! He is a hero to me and I love his attitude towards it all. He is so positive through everything. Love you dadio! Get better soon.

Valentines day

Lloyd and I are big into Valentines day. I love decorating for it and I do leave them up for awhile. I love being in love. It's fun to celebrate love a lot but I especially love it on Valentines. We had a fun date on Monday February 13th. Lloyd took me out to Rodizio Grill and it was absolutely delicious. He is amazing and I'm so lucky I got to spend that night out with him. He gave me roses and chocolates and a white and gold watch. I wear the watch everyday. He actually picked something really good out. He is proud that I where it everyday.. It's kinda cute. I'm so grateful for my husband who takes care of me and loves me so much. He does so much for me and always makes sure I am happy. I am so grateful we get to be together forever. Love you Lloydie. Happy belated Valentines day!
