Viva La Mexico


So we made it to Mexico. We left on Friday night on our plane trip to San Diego. That went fine, we each had room next to us on the plane and didn't even sit together. We got to San Diego, got our rental car and found the hotel. As we were unloading our bags I noticed that our rental car had expired plates on it, so we had to go back to the airport on Saturday morning and exchange it for another one. Let me also mention that as soon as we landed Jared was ready to eat at In and Out. So..we got our luggage in the room and Jared and his Dad were on their way to find us some burgers. On Saturday we went again to In and Out..let me tell you that the Young's love that place!

We drove down to Rosartia Beach on Saturday and went to buy groceries for dinner, we all went down to the beach which is right by our hotel. On Sunday we drove down to Ensenada, had lunch and did a little bit of shopping. Jared sister Jennie and her family came in last night. Today we went to the beach and found some pretty cool seashells. And the rest of the day we have just hung out. So far the trip has been great. I love that we can relax and enjoy the warm weather. I will upload our pictures when I have my camera around. Tomorrow we are going to Sea World.

What a mess!



Jared woke me up bright and early this morning to let me know that our basement was flooding! Yes that is right, flooding! He went downstairs before work to find his favorite jeans in the wash and the carpet was soaking wet. I am so glad our basement is not finished or it would have been even a bigger mess than it was. We laid the towels down and swept out some water (just to do it again an hour later). When Jared got home from work we put our little pump for our pond down in the window well and sucked all of the water out. It was a lot of water. We were outside for about 2 hours in the rain (that turned to snow) getting all of the water out. It totally soaked the carpet on our landing downstairs--hopefully the little space heater will dry it out.What a fun way to spend a Friday night! I just hope it doesn't happen again.

The first week of December



This week has been a busy one for me. Monday night Jared called from work at about 5:50 p.m. and told me that he got Jazz tickets for the game! Dinner was already in the oven so I took it out put it in the fridge and out the door I went. The game was really fun and the seats weren't horrible- and the Jazz won which was great.

Tuesday I got the wonderful privilege of going to the Dentist. That is not my type of fun but I was only going in for a teeth cleaning.
The Dentist also said that my infection in my gums in my front teeth is clearing up so I should be able to get new crowns soon which is good news to me since I can't bite into anything!

Wednesday was Girls Night Out hosted by Lindsay. It was good food and fun to chat with the girls. I love to listen to the stories, and I don't say much but I have a good time! I am starting to really love my ward since I am getting to know more and more people, it is hard being in Nursery where I only know the kids! So GNO is a good thing for me and I am glad I can go!



Friday I have a temple sealing to attend..that should be nice. And then we will go to dinner afterward.
I am looking forward to the weekend, not that things will slow down. We have so much to do before we leave for Mexico next week! What a crazy week it has been!

Missy



We woke up to a world of white! The snow is still coming down outside. Jared was at work this morning fixing his Mom's car so I got to shovel. Missy (that would be our dog) was loving it. She has this rope thing we bought her last year that she loves. We can throw it and she will go and bring it back to us. She was running around like crazy outside in the snow, slipping and sliding on the driveway. She would have to find her rope in the snow and she would come back to me all white! I am glad that our driveway is so small..and not as steep as our house in Kearns. It was a fun morning playing outside!
