1 Year Anniversary! A little belated post...

So I originally had wrote this post a couple days afterour anniversary, BUT it got deleted and out of frustration I was so not in the mood to rewrite it. Anyways, here's what went down for our 1 year!
We started out by being good kids and going to church, we had made reservations at The Anniversary Inn in Logan. Yes, for the 4th time, BUT we've NEVER paid full price. An
d $60 is a smokin' deal! SO we chose Rich's Drive Inn!

It was so cutely set up! The bed of the truck was actually th
e bed! We loved it! It had a the huge big screen, so we're able to borrow some of the movie
s they had there and
just relax. We chose My Best Friend's Wedding (or well I chose that...) and Secondhand Lions. We also finished watching the 2nd "Pirates" because I had fallen asleep the night before. But what would the drive in be without snacks?! Luckily for us it came with dinner and a movie!It came with hot dogs, 4 drinks, popcorn, 2 king size can
dies of our choice, Martinelli's sparkling cider and cheesecake in the fridge.
So, we uh enjoyed the movies ;) and took some
silly pix with th
e fun decor in the room (on facebook), and filled out this fu
n "About Us" book I bought . It was a fantastic stay! We loved everything about the room. It had a cozy feel and a huge tub! We did the extended stay so we
could finish the movies and relax.
The next morning we had a yummy breakfast and headed out. Our first stop was a little restaurant for lunch called The Bluebird. We had read abou
t it and decided to give it a try. Long story short, it was our first and last time going there ha ha. The girl who was supposed to seat us made a scene about it. So someone else sat us. The food was okay, nothing special. We did like the chocolates from the chocolate shop in th
ere though. So if we go back for anything, it'll be the candy.
Our next stop was a little antique shop we passe
d by. Mine and Jaren's thing is antique shops, ever since the first date, so it was kind of fun to browse around. As we were headed home Jaren said he had another way we're going to go home. We instead went up the canyon and enjoyed the view. We even happened to run into a rattle snake! I was so excited/ scared. I wanted to poke it (note I was in the Jeep so I was a little more daring). Instead of being attacked I settled for getting a picture
.Our last and final stop was Inspiration Point. It was a fantastic view. We sat up there and enjoyed the scenery and filled out more over our "About Us" book. After hanging out there for about an hour of so we made our way home. It was a f
abulous anniversary. 1 year and counting! We're excited for our adventure to continue.

Until next time...
Love, Jess

Summer's coming to an end..boo!

Hey!
Well summer is coming to an end here soon. I'm so sad, it was an amazing summer but went by TOO fast!
Last time I updated I was getting ready to do my sleep deprived EEG. That was horrible. I stayed up by helping my cousin with her baby, Cannon, which was fun. Then I went home and literally watched America's Got Talent online from 3 am to 1o am. And painted my fingernails in between. It was an exhausting day, and I still don't know the results! I have to wait till my appointment in September.
Also since I last updated the newest lil' addition to the family came: Lyla Melo! She's my new little niece and she sure is a cutie. It was fun because just a couple days later my best friends Shaleena and Angela came to visit! They stayed the night at my place and we caught up and laughed just like the good ol' days! The next day Jaren made us waffles and we tried on wedding dresses for Angela, and walked 25h st. and had a "photo shoot" at the Union Station. Shaleena also gave me highlights while she was here.
Thi past week we went to Lagoon, we had a blast, but I must be getting old because I got sick on some rides that usually don't bother me :( lol. We were able to go with Tannon & Jossi and met up with Angela! It was great! We got bounce back tickets so hopefully we'll be going back Wednesday.
Upcoming and exciting events: tomorrow: looking at a BEAUTIFUL house, Wednesday:Lagoon, Saturday Weber county fair, SUN-MONDAY ANNIVERSARY INN FOR OUR 1 YEAR! YAY!
