April/May(ish) :)

The past few weeks have been so great for us! I'm gonna take a minute a brag about my cute husband. I had a birthday and turned the big 2-2! This year was kind of a different birthday for me, with Austin and I both working and Austin also being in school, we are basically constantly busy and away from our apartment Monday through Saturday. So as my birthday got closer, it kind of just felt like another day, which was fine. It fell on a Thursday, which meant I was scheduled to work till 8 pm. I knew that my family was coming into town the next day to go to dinner to celebrate, but it still felt kind of strange not seeing at least my parents on my actual birthday. Luckily though, I have the best husband in the world! He was so thoughtful and so sweet the whole day. He had class till about noon, and I was scheduled to work at 2. So he brought me home pizza for lunch (my fav!) and a single red rose. On the card, he had written, "just a few reasons why I love you, #1..." and he had only written one thing. I was confused for a minute, thinking he could only think of one reason why I'm great!? But I appreciated his thoughtfulness anyways. But then when I got to work, there was another rose with another card and another reason. When I got home that day, there were more roses kind of hidden thoughout the house with more cards. I thought it was the sweetest! And so thoughtful. He also got me a cake complete with birthday candles, and took care of dinner and dish duty that night. I am definitely spoiled and so thankful to have such a wonderful husband. More husband bragging, Austin finished his semester! And got great grades in all his classes. He is such a hard worker and so motivated. Its so impressive! We are definitely excited for summer, and have been loving the nice weather that has been going on lately. Our new little jolly is the grill that we bought a few weeks ago. It was kind of just on a whim, we somehow both ended up with a day off on the same day, and we were just like, lets have a barbeque! So we found a little honey of a 'O' at sears for cheap and brought it on home. We have loved it! It just uses charcol, so most times after we grill up dinner we will roast marshmallows on it and make s'mores! Kinda cheesey but it is so fun! We will sit out on our little back patio and enjoy the sun until its too cold to take :). We were also invited by my parents to go to a jazz game last night. A playoff game against the spurs! Better yet, box seats! They had a taco bar, wings, and desert! Best way to watch a basketball game I think! We were able to ride down with Connor and Whitney, made it that much more fun! We are definitely very blessed in life.
Birthday Candles!

We love our ghetto BBQ's :)


Our seats for the game!





Kinda fuzzy but still fun :)
