Drive, Wedding, Fire, & Things.

Alright, it is TIME for an update I'd say.
Well, there is not much to tell, but there are a couple things.
Beside working our guts out.
We have been busy with getting things ready for Austin's wedding. (Husband's younger brother)
Trying to spend some time together, when we get a chance.
One boating trip.
and some super fun drives.
and trying to help family out with anything they need while there is a fire, almost literally in their front yard.

I guess I will begin with...Our drives.
Whenever we can get a second just to be with each other, we like to take a drive.
whether it's to see what houses are for sale, just to put some petrol in the car, run to the store, or simply just for the sake of being together.
It's relaxing to just sit and have conversation.
and you know sometimes snuggle up against his shoulder.
The picture below is of a beautiful sunset we saw the other day on one of our Sunday drives.
Beautiful.

Last Friday, Husband's little brother, Austin married his girlfriend of over 2 years.
It was a beautiful ceremony.
I am so happy for them.
It was a lot of work getting everything ready, but so far seems like it was worth it.
They left for their honeymoon the next day, but Austin got very sick with the flu and they were home monday night. Sad right?
I am glad the both made the commitment to be wed and to love each other for the rest of their lives, I pray that this next year that they will be able to reach their goal of going to the temple and to be blessed with a marriage that is eternal. Not just for an eternal companionship, but also for an eternal family.
Congrats you guys. We love you.

The day after the wedding, so saturday. We got the boat ready and headed to the lake. Lake yuba to be exact. On the way there, everything was beautiful, peaceful and calm.
On the way home driving back through Nephi, Moroni and fountain green and so on.
There was this small fire. Maybe just like 10 acres or so...ok so that is still big, but compared to what it is now, it was small. We could see the smoke and finally passed the fire and it was just burning and there was a single cop car, we think trying to get some help because he was on the phone.
We figured it would be contained, but by the time we got back to the Carlton's it had already grown and every hour after that it was getting bigger and bigger. You could see the flames on the other side of the mountain. It was NUTS.
It is now known as the Wood Hollow Fire.
These pictures below are from when it had just started and had only been burning a few hours.

That is my in-laws house, scary!

I pray that this fire can get under control and all the fires that are in Utah and in Colorado. They are just devastating and so scary.
With all this going on explains my being bad at blogging recently, sorry.
But, I am now 22..My birthday was on the fifth. It was super fun and Husband spoiled me and so did my mom... I better start on making some cupcakes.

Also on the 26th of June was the 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of when I met Sweet Husband in Australia.
It's weird to think that two years ago I was roaming around Australia and soon to come home to a letter that would be the start of a love story.
I love sweet Husband.

Eleven Yo.

You all know I got to do this. Right? Today, is the 9th. Husband and I have been married for ELEVEN months! It is also Johnny Depps birthday. Umm...also it has been 5 years to the day that I got my drivers license! Crazy, I know! Only 4 weeks and we will be married for one year! Woo! Well this post is short, sweet, and to the point. No worries (because I know you all are) I will be posting about all my birthday love soon! 22 years young. Over and out.

Juney June.

I am SO HAPPY that it is finally June!
June is probably my most favorite month, besides it being my birthday month it is also the same month that I first met Husband.
Plus, summer begins! mmhmm, I sure do love June!
I have a feeling that this may be a bit of a busy month. My birthday! Austin gets married, there are a couple anniversary things having to do with Australia and Husband...
Anyway, I welcome June with open arms. I hope it is full of sunshine and I hope I didn't just jinx it. Oops.

Last night I was waiting for a new episode of  "On The Fly" to come on and they showed a "Undercover Boss" episode just before having to do with the airlines.
Guess which airline?
That's right. Frontier Airlines. It was so cool to see our planes and uniforms on there. I knew exactly how all those people felt.
Our CEO Bryan Bedford is the one that went undercover and after felt for all the cross-utilized agents.
Meaning we do ramp and throw bags underneath the plane, Lavs and water and all that and then go check everyone in and put them on the plane. Most airlines just have you work one or the other.
Anyway, I thought it was so cool!

Well..Bye.

Our May.

Since it is that last day in May, I figured I should probably do a little, tiny catch up with the blog.
2 weeks ago my in laws put together a little womens conference since we were not able to attend this year. It was so awesome to hear from Husband's grandma B and all his auntie's and of course his mom.
We learned a lot of little tips on quick clean-ups and how many things vinegar is good for...A whole lot.
We also learned about how some of them have not found a happy life, but have made it.
Also, to make sure that your marriage and family come first. Which we already know, but they gave us ways to be closer with your spouse and how to accept each other.
Every talk or "class" was filled with experience and knowledge.
I know that I am here on this earth because I chose it. I know the responsibilities of being a good wife and eventually a good mother.
I know I must support and love my husband with all that he does.
And I do.
I adore sweet husband and am so thankful he is as hardworking as he is.
He stays up so late to finish his homework and gets up early to work to support us.
and he still loves me and finds time to be with me.


Last weekend one of my best friends was married and sealed to her husband and I was lucky enough to be a bridesmaid, She might not think it was so great now. I may have harassed her a tiny bit. She loved it though. Her sealing was beautiful and the whole time, the whole day I reflected on our sealing and kneeling across the alter from each other knowing we are eternal companions.
It was so precious.
As we were walking to go to the sealing we passed the fountain that Husband proposed at and I just wanted to stay there the whole day!
At the reception, they had a photo booth.
Husband and I had a pretty good set I'd say
see....

Well, I guess there was not too much to catch up on.
Mostly work and school and then some play...

My birthday is coming up and I am so excited to see what husband bought me.
He has been excited too.
There has been a couple times where he almost gave in and let me have my present early!
Well.. see you all in June.

Carlton's out.

Mommy Dearest.

 My Mother's Day post is just a tiny bit.

I can just never seem to get around to doing it, but finally I have an extra minute.
Here it goes...

My mom is the greatest mom in the whole world. 
She is always there for me when I need her and always supports me.
We always have the best talks.
She is always helping me out and she has no idea how much it is appreciated.
Especially with a crazy a work schedule and then a crazy at home schedule, she is always willing to help me out, so thanks Mommy Dearest!
We have an inside joke between is and the movie Mommy Dearest. If you have ever seen it, then you might think we are crazy, but don't worry she never beat me with a wire hanger. Even though I am sure growing up there were times that she wanted to.
My mom and I are pretty similar in personality so we don't always get along, but we usually do and we can have A LOT of fun, maybe almost too much.
Just ask my dad.
My mom always put my sister and I first and gave us the things we needed...and wanted.
I danced and tumbled because of her and she gave me the guts to be able to try out for varsity cheerleader in high school, which I can say right now definitely made my high school years as fun as they were.
Also, because of her flight benefits and support I was able to travel across the world to Australia and ...well, I think you know why that is so special.
I absolutely adore my mom and just love her so much and am glad that she is my Mommy Dearest.
Love you mommy.


My mother in law is pretty great too. I mean she has to be right? She raised a pretty good son I'd say.
Natalie has definitely been a good example of being a mom and keeping value in the home.
Hopefully she won't be too shocked if Husband and I have a little Hell Raiser...I am thinking there is a good chance that, that's what we will be getting.
Anyway, I am so glad that she taught and raised her kids (especially husband) in the church and that he had a wanting to go on a mission.
Without that, who knows where we might be.
Anyway, thanks Natalie for raising such a good guy.
We love you! 
 

 

Diversion.

You want to know something that really makes my job exciting, but way more stressful?
Well, when you get told that there will be a plane diverting to Salt Lake City.
That happened on Tuesday.
The plane that diverted to SLC was on it's way Sacramento, but the cargo heat stopped working during the flight and they had 8 too cute puppies.
So they basically stopped in SLC dropped of the puppies and were on their way, so it definitely could have been worse or a lot more difficult, but we just got cute puppies.
I am trying to get the pictures off my phone, but it is not cooperating at the moment.
There were 3 English Bulldog puppies. (those were my favorite).
4 red poodles or also know as the teddy bear puppies, they look exactly like teddy bears.
and 1 white yorkie pup.
They were adorable.

Has anyone seen the previews for that new TV series on TLC, "On The Fly"?
It is going to be all about the days in lives of all us Airline Employees. Too bad they are not coming to SLC, they should. We're quite entertaining.
Anyway, it shows everything form passengers yelling at the customer service agents to what all the ramp does.
I'm pretty excited.
Hopefully some people will watch it and realize that the exact agent they are talking to did not mess anything up or it's not their fault.
and that 50 lbs is the limit for a bag and if you do go over that there is a fee. It's like that on EVERY airline. Yes, even for 1 lb over. Most of the time I see this is when the people are going to Mexico and both bags are over 50, like what are you seriously taking to Mexico. You need some clothes and swim suits. Done.
Also the people that buy a $1,000,000 stroller that weighs 800 lbs and they want to gate check it, well just so you know I am not going to be carrying that down the stair like you ask, I will be putting down the slide. There are $8 strollers at wal-mart that weigh like 2lbs, they are perfect for traveling and I am more that willing to carry those down the stairs.
Those are just a couple things to expect when flying with any airlines. When you scratch their back they will scratch yours. Trust me, it pays off to be nice.
Don't be some diva, expecting us to carry all your crap to the plane and give you the best seat. It doesn't work like that.

Alright, well...I am going to try and get those pictures of the sweet puppies. Hopefully they will be up later!  
 

Ten and Stuff.

As of yesterday, May 9th Husband and I have been married 10 months!
I am one day late posting it, but it's not because I forgot, it's because Husband used the computer ALL DAY yesterday to do a lot of his homework.
So...It's alright. :)
In the next couple weeks one of my good friends Gabi gets married and then in a little over a month my brother -in-law, Austin gets married. How crazy!
Marriage is so fun and I love to see people getting married. I always think of our wedding day and how special it was.

Also, on May 7th was our Engagement-versary!
or one year since we got engaged!
I am so glad that husband like it enough to put a ring on it!

People are right when they say time flies.
It really does, but I am loving every second of it.
We have so many decisions to make here in the near future and I am pretty excited about it!

Well, not the most exciting post, but I like it.

Bye.
