Summertime and the living's easy ♪

We're alive and we're crazy busy! Our weather's been heating up so we've been escaping to Uly's parent's house pretty much every day to beat the heat and swim in their pool. I'm sure my landlord isn't complaining since that means I'm not running his AC during the days! It's still at the point where it cools down nicely by 11 pm so I'm not dying...Yet!
Now that I'm out of school I'm only working, but I think that makes working even less appealing! I certainly do cherish my days off, and my manager is nice enough to give me a few days off in a row without cutting into my hours...Or that's just a happy coincidence, but I'll take it either way! :)
Uly and I are super excited to be taking our first long road trip together to visit my parents in Washington for two weeks!! I've always invited people I know to visit Washington with me and Uly is the first person to have taken me up on it! We'll be there for 2 weeks, which sounds like a long time, but is definitely not going to be enough time!
Not much has been going on, so I'll just leave you with a TON of pictures that we've taken over the last few months, in no particular order of course!




I threw Uly a surprise birthday party and I snapped this adorable picture during it.



I got to visit my friend Morgan in Mission Viejo and we did a quick trip to the beach



My little helper!



Oliver and the cupcake: A Standoff

My boys being boys :)



Oliver getting wet. My camera died RIGHT after this picture, otherwise you would have pictures of his first time in a sprinkler. Oh well!



Again, getting wet. This kid LOVES water, especially if he can run through it.



Can you spot the famous person we saw at Disneyland?











We splurged on our first year anniversary and went to all you can eat sushi! Sooooo good!



Uly let Oliver get behind the wheel of a car. Needless to say, it was a mistake.

Hope this post finds you all well and happy! Enjoy your summertime!

School's out for summer!!!I

I took my last final for this semester a few hours ago and it feels great to be off for a few months! It's crazy to think that I'm already done with a semester of school and I seriously wonder why I hard such a hard time seeing a semester through the last time I was in school! I've got a lost more drive now and while it was a crazy semester, I'm looking forward to the next one. I've got TONS of room for improvement, but I'm still so proud of myself for finishing the semester and not getting discouraged or wanting to quit. It was a good start and I can only go up from here!!



This is the Quad, where all of my classes were. It's such a beautiful building!



This is the outside of the library. I didn't get to spend much time there but hopefully I will next semester!
