April Showers Bring May Flowers

I cannot believe that it is April already...I know it has been so long since I have blogged. This past March was a lot of fun. Amber came to visit, we went to the movies, shopping and a bunch of fun girl stuff. Oh we also watched Twilight the weekend before it came out...a guy at work got me a copy. Amber and I were VERY excited. We also made a cake for our Nephew's (Matthew) 1st Birthday. That was a lot of fun and he LOVED the cake that he got all to himself.
I also had a Birthday last Sunday, the 29th. I didn't do anything too exciting. I went a got a facial and I am going to go shopping at Nordstroms with a gift card from my In-Laws. I haven't had a chance yet, so those are my plans tomorrow. Then on Saturday we went out to dinner with some friends at delicious Macaroni Grill. It was nice to get out and be with those fabulous friends we love to hang out with so much (you know who you are). On my actual Birthday, Greg was so wonderful and took care of me all day. He made me a delicious dinner and gave me 4 Toblerone's, my absolute favorite chocolate bar EVER.
Now it is April and it won't stop snowing...I only hope it will stop soon and we can see all the pretty flowers. Especially at Temple Square, I dont know if there is any place more beautiful than Temple Square in the Spring time.
My family is coming tomorrow too! I cannot wait for them to come and meet Coco. Especially Hailey she is going to love her so much...Hailey loves animals more than anyone I know. Also my Mommy is going to take me out shopping for my Birthday. YAY!! I am so excited!

Happy Anniversary!

Greg and I have been married to 2 years now...Wow! I cannot believe it! It seems like we just got married yesterday, but also feels like we have always been married! I am so thankful for the amazing and wonderful husband that he is! I could not as for anyone more special...( I will let you define the word "special") XOXO..I love you!

Fern Gully Bat

Oh I forgot this one...doesn't she look like the bat in Fern Gully?

A cute one with her ears up and her tongue out

She is so fun to play this and have her make these funny faces...the trick is to let her do them

Coco's Fashion Show

We got some cute new outfits for Coco this past week, but I cannot take credit. My fabulous Mother-in-Law, who is amazing at crocheting made Coco a cute sweater and got her a cute dress. The both fit so well and she looks darling in them!

This is her posing with her cute Butterfly Dress...she always closes her eyes with the flash.

Another darling pose from Coco


We are dancing together, while watch the NBA Dunk Contest

Greg was thinking...."Oh My Goodness, are you really taking ALL these pictures of a Dog?!"
Greg is just so happy right now!

We love...well I love these cute outfits we have! Greg came home from work when Coco was wearing her little dress...he was shocked and could not stop laughing. But I love it and so does Coco and that is all that matters right?

"Coco Channel"

So Greg got me a dog for Christmas, we finally picked her out! She is so adorable. She is a brown Miniature Pinscher Mix. We adopted her through the Humane Society, I so glad we were able to do that. After going there, we are always going to adopt our animals through a shelter. It is so sad to see all the adorable animals there and so alone.
Here are some cute pictures of "Coco Channel"
Me and the cute little Coco. I had to leave and she cried for me for a half hour Greg said.

This is of the whole family, Coco doesn't look to happy...haha

Greg and Coco, he wont admit it but he loves having her aroundShe is so much fun to have around, especially to keep me company. Greg is working tonight at the Hospital, so Coco is here to hang out with me. She is so well trained already too! She is 1 year 9 months old. We are teaching her not to jump on the furniture whenever she wants, we think her previous owners let her do that. But she never barks, only whines but it is not very loud, which is nice. I love have her around, she is so wonderful and a great new addition to our family!

Snow....

Well needless to say...Utah is miserable...it was 4 degrees in Salt Lake this morning. Lucky for me it was 9 degrees by the time I got to work and only had to wait outside for a couple minutes before I could get the door open. I really need to go to the gym and build my muscles...but that is besides the point. It has been so cold I don't think I have felt warm all day! By the time I left work this afternoon at 6 pm...it pouring snow everywhere! All I could hear on the radio...2 hours from downtown to the point of the mountain...(where I pretty much travel from). A 10 car pile up around Lehi and American Fork...another 1-1/2 hours from the point of the mountain to Orem. Luckily by the time I had left they were able to get all accidents off the freeway and it only too me just over 2 hours to get home, which normally takes 45 min. And now since another storm is rolling through tomorrow morning, I will be leaving by no later than 5:45 AM!! Yes that is right...I have to be out of the house by 5:45 tomorrow morning. All because of the stupid snow...

Halloween

Happy Halloween!!!
Well for Halloween we had some friends over and had a BBQ of course...that is like all we ever do!!! I don't know what we would do without one. I had decided to be a Pirate, I was all ready and my heel on my boots snapped off. I was so frustrated because anything and everything that can go wrong seems like it will go wrong. Well anyways, so it kind of put me out of the mood of being all dressed up, but I still took a fabulous picture with Stephen.

Greg decided he wanted to be Peter Pan's shadow...but when he got dressed up he just looked like he was trying to be a black man. It was so freaky cause he has white teeth and blue eyes...it looked crazy...and then he got his rifle out....I think everyone was freaking out then! Haha...he can get a little too hyper when he is playing around with friends...because after they all when out around our apartments and Greg started to scare everyone...I would be scared if he popped out from no where too!I am just bummed because Greg and I didn't get a picture together...oh well....we need to get better at that anyways....
XOXO Ali
