CONGRATULATIONS GRADUATES!!

Yesterday was a fun and exciting day for all of the newest BYU-Hawaii graduates. It was one year ago that I was celebrating finally finishing school!! It was fun to go with Kali and give lei's to all of our friends. We new about 20 people who graduated. Crystal is one of my best friends out here, we met in WSI class and from there we had several classes together since we were both EXS majors. She is now done!! Congratulations, but lucky for me she will still be around since her hubby still has more school. YEAH!!!!

On a sad note, James the other one pictured is leaving with wife Erin to Arizona tomorrow and I am sad about that, he is going off in the world to become a Dentist. They were awesome friends and I am sad they are leaving, but I am excited for them as well to start new adventures!

Krew is 3 months

Here is my big boy, he is 15 lbs. 12 ounces. He is such a happy boy, always smiling, baby talking and laughing. He loves to play on his tummy and he constantly has some sort of liquid coming out of his mouth. He is a leaky faucet. I am so thankful for this little man, I LOVE HIM!!! He shows his love in return by sleeping 8-12 hrs. through out the night. Thanks little man!!:)

10 year High School Reunion

Yes, it is true, in one month is my 10 year high school reunion. I know that really ages me for those of you who thought I was so young!!!:) I stole this picture from Jane's blog. This was our powder puff team, and if I remember correctly we took 1st place all four years. Actually, we may have taken 2nd one year, but I don't know, I can't remember, that was ages ago and I am old, REMEMBER! We were awesome though, I just remember everyone was scared of us:)
We are going to make it so no one else has any excuses why they can not be there!!!:)

Father's Day continued....

I had thought of these pictures for my Father's Day tribute, but I didn't find the CD until today. They are from three years ago on Aaron and my wedding day. The first one is of me and my Father-in-law showing off our blue steal , the next one is with my dad cracking up about something and the last one is Aaron and I jumping for joy. So now a little about my Father-in-law. David Jones. He has a great sense of humor and always makes me laugh. He has a good relationship with God and always talks to us about the Bible. He is always concerned about us and how we are doing. He taught Aaron, respect and good work ethic which I am so grateful for. He is a wonderful man and I love him very much, I am grateful to have such a wonderful Father-in-law.

Jayce Dillon Wood

My brother Brandon and sister in law Veronica just had a little boy on June 11 at 1:37 pm. He was 8 lbs. 5 oz. and 20 inches long. Congratulations, he is so handsome!

Amazing Friends

I have needed to post this for months now but have dragged my feet because I knew it was take some time and thought. I guess I just wanted it to be perfect since these to girls have done so much for me and I wanted to thank them properly. This post could go on forever, but I will attempt to just list a few of the things that these girls have done for me while here in Hawaii. Both of these fabulous women put on Krew's baby shower and my 28th birthday party. They both have been there for me when I needed a shoulder to cry on or some one to laugh with, shop with, hit the beach, go on a walk, babysit my kids, watch a movie, go out to dinner, or just stay up and talk till wee hours in the morning etc. etc. the list goes on. Anytime I need to turn to someone, I know I can count on them! Thank you so much, and for that I will be forever grateful. These two women live right next to each other in K building apartments, Erin lives right above Hillary. They are both pregnant with their first child!! YEAH and congratulations. Hillary is due in 14 days and Erin is due in 31 weeks.

Sadly Erin is moving away and leaving this beautiful island on Monday to Arizona to start a new life. I just want her to know she will be missed and that I am so thankful for her friendship.

Hillary and Derek have made me endless Sunday dinners all of which have been FABULOUS. I am so excited because they are going to move in right below us in our apartment complex!! So now she will be closer!!! I am excited to get to see her experience her first child and am glad I will be so close to help if needed!! Maybe I can give back a little, since she has done SOOOOO MUCH for me!

I love both of you and THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Basketball and friends

I finally got to play basketball again after over a year!! It was fun. The school had a girls three on three tournament and so Crystal, Ashley, Kaitlin (not pictured, she sprained her ankle in the second game):) and I played on a team. Kali enjoyed playing around with the basketball and her and Brylie bounced the ball to each other and cheered us on! Thanks to Crystals wonderful sister Paige and husband Brandon who watched Krew for me while I was playing and thanks to Mike for watching Kali!
