Hello Blogger World,
It's summertime! Well, about halfway through but it's time to update the family again. If you aren't family, you can read it too but be warned - there are a lot of pictures! Either way here is an update in the world of Mr. and Mrs. Awesome in no particular order.
Most importantly - Congratulations to Paul on his promotion at work! I am so proud of him!
In early spring we decided to take a trip to California and enjoy the beach, a delicious seafood meal on the beach, and Six Flags.
On our way to and from California we stopped in Vegas for a little shopping, another delicious meal at one of the casinos and a tour of the Hoover Dam. Below we are watching the water show at the Bellagio.
Back in Utah, Tim and Lisa bought us tickets to the Salt Lake Real Soccer team for Paul's birthday! Luckily, I got one too!

A few weeks later Emily came to visit! We ate at "The Mayan Adventure" Restaurant. They perform multiple shows during your meal.
Paul spoiled me with a new wedding ring! It took me almost 5 months to find but he was very patient and I love it!
We also got a new car! It's a Hyundai Elantra. I'll have to get some photos from Paul. He's been doing some work on it and it looks even better than when we bought it.
In Utah, every town has their own "City Days." We decided to be good neighbors and go to the Springville events. Ananda decided to join us for the parade.
Later that day we went to the Carnival. Paul won me a pelican. His name is Pelican.
Then we got hungry and went to a BBQ place there. Yummy!!
After eating, we were lucky enough to see Due West perform! Shawna is close friends with Matt (the center guy) and I met his wife a couple years ago so I was pretty stoked to see them live. They did a fantastic job! I even bought their cd.
Thennnnnnnnn fireworks! Tisa joined us for the fireworks.
Carnival lights.
A month or so after the carnival we got on a plane and flew to Tampa, Florida where....
We went on a cruise! Now this isn't just any cruise - this is the Carnival Inspiration. We traveled to the Grand Cayman Islands and Cozumel. Not only that but there were 23 of us total! Below are a bunch of random photos.
We made a animal towel wedding. Below two turtles are getting married. The girl turtle has an elephant as her maid of honor and the boy turtle has a dinosaur.
We had a little ceremony basically welcoming me into the family. It was wonderful!
Random cousins photo.

There are really no words to express how awesome this vacation was! I loved meeting a large amount of Paul's family.
The following week we decided we weren't ready to work 5 days so we took Friday off and went to California! We stayed with Rosemary and I got to see my Dad and Julie! We went to Six Flags, the beach, and enjoyed all the time in between. Unfortunately most photos were taken by people other than me... but here are a couple.
Angry Bird hat.
Well that's all I can remember! Unfortunately this wasn't a very amusing post but it's an easy way to keep everyone updated. Thanks for reading!
