Our six month anniversary trip to Orlando and Cape Canaveral!

So Kyle and I decided to take a trip up to Orlando for our anniversary. We took the long way there to explore our new home. Kyle and I first stopped just outside of Orlando and walked around Downtown Disney and we both decided we needed to come back again when it wasn't so hot. We then went and checked in to our motel and got ready to go to the Temple. When we got there we were very suprised to find that the temple was closed due to spring cleaning. Well we were very disappointed but know that we will make another trip soon. We then went to dinner at Chile's and had a great time. The night ended with a walk around the town and then to bed so we could get up early and beat the traffic to the launch site. Well we left the hotel around 7:30 a.m. and found our way to our spot on the dock which we camped out for 5 hours until the 30 sec launch took place right across from us. Well it was a very memorable anniversary and we loved spending so much time together on the dock just talking and waiting. I want to thank Kyle for planning our adventure and being such a great husband. He is my best friend and I can't wait for many many many more fun adventures with him. Thanks babe! Happy Anniversary!

On our way to Orlando we took a side trip and went to Downtown Disney. It was fun to walk around but it was way too hot to stay long.

The beautiful Orlando Temple. We were going to go in for our anniversary but it was closed due to some heavy spring cleaning. So we will attend the next time we drive 4 hours up there.

This is us on the dock across from the launch site. Where we got so sunburned I might add.

Here is a video of the Shuttle Launch we saw from across the bay of Cape Canaveral. I hope this works it is my first video load and I hope you can hear and see it because it was awesome!!!

Trip to San Francisco

Kyle and I decided to take a road trip to San Francisco the end of February. We got there and it was raining so we decided to stay in the hotel and not get soaked. The next morning was our activity day and the rain had cleared and it was beautiful weather. First we walked around the ports found breakfast at a cute little cafe then started our adventure to Alcatraz.

Here is Alcatraz Island that we got to tour. It was amazing and kinda scary at some points.

(Below) Kyle is in the solitary cell. He looks scared huh?... He is listening to the tour and how they just closed the door and only let the prisoners out once a week to shower. Crazy!!

After Alcatraz we had a bite to eat and headed to the Aquarium of the Bay. Here is Kyle making friends with the star fish at the aquarim of the bay.

Amazing colorful starfish!

Super fun time at the aquarium. There was a place at the end that you could touch the sting rays and Kyle was having a blast. As for me, I was just fine taking the pictures.


And of course our trip would not be complete without the famous trolly car ride up and down the hills of San Francisco. They were so fun but stopped in the middle of the street and was kinda scary but still fun. We rode these to China town and to our night fun watching the play Wicked.

Here is Kyle in China town with his monkey friends. Hear no evil, See no evil, Speak no evil

This was the highlight of my vacation. Kyle got us tickets to see Wicked at the theatre. It was so amazing and just as good if not better the second time around. I recommend it to anyone!!

On our way home we went to the famous Golden Gate Bridge. It was amazing to see and get to walk across. I loved the background of it for our pictures.

Valentine's Day!!

So, this is our first Valentine's Day as a married couple. We took a trip to Salt Lake City where we went to the temple, stayed in a wonderful Marriot thanks to Kyle's work and then a nice dinner at amazing Tucanos. It was a wonderful day that we were able to spend together and I thank my wonderful husband for planning it all. I love you babe!
Here are some pics from the dinner....

Here we are at lover's beach in Cabo. We loved this spot it was our favorite stop on the whole trip. We saw whales here and even went snorkeling. We were loving it and the water was so clear it was amazing.

Kyle and I on the amazing staircase in our dinning room. We got to eat there every night it was so beautiful. The second night for dinner was formal so we got to dress up reallly nice. It was really fun to be able to dress up and eat great food here. We felt all high class those nights. It was great.
