Summer!

 Jordan and I spent July 4th at Downtown Disney! We had dinner at Tortilla Joe's and could see the fireworks perfectly from our table!

 I packed the night before I left for La Quinta and Rascal didnt want me to go!

 Private pool- one of 41 pools at the resort!

 Private balcony the size of an apartment, with a fireplace! Too bad it was over 110 degrees!

Aaaaaand.....I am a brunette again! I dont know how I feel!

Best Week Ever!

Jordan and I went and saw Ellie Goulding in Pomona on Tuesday night! She is QUEEN.

 Last night Jordan and I went to a baseball game with my work and it was amazing! We had great seats, great company, and the Angels won in the 12th inning! Woohoo!!

Last Saturday night Jordan, his sister, his aunt and two cousins and I went bowling and it was fun! I havent been in so long!

Laaaaately.....

 Jordan and I went to our first Angel's game of the season! It was April 1st against Seattle and the Angels lost but we had fun! And we are going to another one next week courtesy of my work!

 A little girl in church last week named GiGi drew this "picture" for Jordan. Watch out girlie!

 FINALLY had time to fix my ratchet hair! It looks so much better now!

Angels Stadium...


COMING SOON!: Wedding date. Keep a look out :)

This past week....

 My baby child got three nails in different tires. So...I have had my car one month exactly and someone gave me a dent in a Stater Bros parking lot and I got three nails and had to spend 400 dollars on new tires. Like what? Talk about bad luck...

Last weekend Jordan and I took all 4 dogs to mile square park in Westminster. It was beautiful! There were ducks and birds and lots of people fishing. I had a great time :)

We're Engaged!

 Jordan and I are engaged!! On Sunday, March 2nd 2014 (our four year anniversary) Jordan took me to CSUN in the same exact spot he asked me to be his girlfriend and asked me to be his wife! Of course I said yes!

 San Diego Temple here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am also loving my job. I love going every single day! Life couldnt be better! :)

Lately.....

My sister is going to Cal State Fullerton two days a week and since I work right next to the school, we meet up for lunch! It is really nice to be able to see her. But come on, do we really look like twins??

I am LOVING my job. I am learning so much and my boss is awesome.

I got this amazing necklace that I am obsessed with.

Things feel out of control in my life, but I can handle it. I wake up and get ready everyday, so I can fake it till I make it.

Christmas 2013!

Christmas was awesome!! I went home and saw my parents on the 22nd and spent the day with my mom while my dad and Jordan went to a Raiders/Chargers game. On the 25th, Jordan and I spent time at his house.

 This is Rascal, the cutest little reindeer I ever did see!!

Merry Christmas from Jordan and I!

What a Great Weekend!!

 On Thursday, November 14th, Jordan, Jesse, Mayra, and I went to the West Hollywood House of Blues to see Lupe Fiasco! He totally threw down. During two songs, Drizzy's Law and Daydreamin, he called all the girls to the front row. Mayra and I were FRONT AND CENTER! It was soooo amazing!!

On Sunday, November 17th, Jordan and I went to the Staples Center to see the Lakers take on the Pistons. The Lakers won AND held them to 99, which meant we got Tacos!! :) The seats were a present from Jordan's sister, and we were so thankful!! They were handicapped seats,so we got extra leg room and NO ONE was in front of us!! Such good seats! Thank you Gina :)

Conference Weekend in Utah!

Friday, Oct. 4th Jordan and I flew from Long Beach, California to Salt Lake City, Utah to attend the 183rd General Conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! We had an AMAZING time :)

 We got ice cream at Letherby's before Jordan's mission reunion in Kaysville, Utah. It was so good!

 Jordan looking cute as usual :)

 Waiting for our flight at 6am! UGH

 I got to meet up with my beautiful best friend Tela! I am so lucky to meet her in California and then be able to visit her when I go to Utah!

 Jordan wants to attend U of U for PT school, so we bought beanies in support. Plus, it was like 30 degrees outside, and we were cold.

Picture of us inside the Conference center after the Prophet, Apostles, and General Authorities exited. If you are interested in more information, visit www.mormon.org !! We had an amazing weekend!!

We're Going to Salt Lake!

Conference is in 16 days, and Jordan and I are going for the first time! I've never been more excited <3333

Weekend in the Hospital

In the middle of the night on Thursday, I woke up with extreme pain in the middle and right side of my abdomen. After lying awake for about 3 hours, I fell back asleep. On Friday morning, the pain was still there, so I made an emergency appointment with my regular doctor at UCLA. Before I went, I went to my classes and took a test even in extreme pain. When I went to my appointment, my doctor was extremely concerned I may be suffering from Appendicitis, but couldn't say for sure. An extremely nice nurse from the office walked me to the Emergency Room (and even carried my backpack!). She got me settled and left. I was called from the waiting room within 10 minutes and given a bed. Another very kind nurse came in and started running tests upon tests. He said "You will be here a very long time. UCLA is a slow moving beast, but the BEST slow moving beast around." And boy was he right. He was amazing-went out of his way to make me comfortable my getting me extra blankets, turning on/off the lights, checking on me, and even charging my phone so I could call my mom and dad (who live 200 miles away.) When it came time for my CAT Scan, he gave me warnings on how I would feel and I am so happy he did because I was alone and scared. When the CAT scan came back, there was bad news. I had to have an Appendectomy. I immediately called my family and boyfriend and they were on their way. About an hour and a half later, they had me up about to go into the operating room. At that time my parents hadn't arrived yet, and I was scared and started to cry. The anesthesiologist explained everything to me and distracted me all the way until I fell asleep. I am so grateful to her for that. When I woke up, I noticed that my three incisions were covered with gauze like normal, but they were cut into the shape of hearts. What thoughtful staff helped me get through a terrible weekend in the hospital. Thank you Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center!!

So thankful for my mom, dad, and Jordan who drove 200 miles to be with me. I have an awesome family who held my hand all the way through, and awesome ER doctors!

Weekends in Westwood

Every weekend Jordan drives up to Westwood to spend time with me whenever I dont work. I NEVER thought that this would be the situation that we would be in, and I must say I am a bit disappointed. HOWEVER I am so glad that both of us are more than willing to do whatever needs to be done to make sure we always make time for each other when we can. If we didnt do that, we would have major issues!! Haha. Anyways, we never plan ahead-instead we just say "Uhhhh what do you wanna do?" It always turns out super fun!! We have seen Were the Millers, The Conjuring, And Elysim all which were AWESOME. Last weekend, we decided to go to the LA Temple Family History Center just to poke around on the computers. I made a huge find! I found my great-uncle, great great grandma, and great great grandpa! AND I found out that all 3 are buried in Culver City, California which is 10 minutes from where I live! So of course we went and visited. Family history is awesome! Families are forever and I cannot wait to meet mine one day :)

 Gerald Jacob Carmichael, my 18 year old great uncle killed in the Korean War. So heartbreaking...he left a widow home here in the states.

 My great great grandpa Andrew Jacob Carmichael. My dad remembers him as a funny caring man.

 Margaret H. Carmichael, my great great grandma. My dad said he knew her as his "little grandma" haha. Every woman in my family is sooo little!

 In the Holy Cross Catholic Cemetary in Culver City, California. 8/17/2013.

Random side note: My paralegal school had professional head shots done for us. It works :) Haha
