4 Months of Married Life!

Ryan and I celebrated our 4 month anniversary this past Wednesday! I have no clue where the time has gone. Our fourth month of married life has been a big one for us. We moved from Fresno to Carlsbad, Ryan started a new job, and we went on our annual Carmel trip with my dad and Laurie. So much fun and excitement in such a little time. I tried to take more pictures this time around, but I know I can do better in the future; it is a work in progress. Hope you enjoy the ones I did remember to capture!

The famous U-Haul. Thank. God. For. Jerry.

Jerry finally made it after an 8-hour trip in this beast! Such a RELIEF.

Attempted to back it up the drive-way. FAIL. 

We decided to unload our stuff from the street! I love hate moving. 

Our wonderful team- Brent, Mom, & Jerry. We are so thankful we had them during the big move. 

One of our best friends, Derek, came to visit us a week later! We took him to dinner at C-Level the night he flew in. Such a great memory. 

My sweet sister, Morgan, and her boyfriend, Emery.

Alexandra and Derek :-)

Ryan and Me! Our second weekend in our new city was a BLAST. 

My sisters! LOVE THEM. 

While Derek was here, the boys played a little poker while the girls prepared for the BIG BACHELOR WEDDING. Ahh it was amazing. 

Red roses and chocolate dipped strawberries for the Bachelor wedding premier. 

My husband I being silly. We went to Japengos with Morgan, Emery, Brent and Mom on a Friday night. It felt good to spend a night on the town. I still can't believe we moved; still have to pinch myself from time to time. 

 In case you were wondering how Leon is handling the big move:

He LOVES it!

This picture has a little story.....

I have been taking them on a walk a few times a week. While taking this picture, Leon and Jax started to tug and pull me in a certain direction. I finally stopped looking at my phone, turned around, and noticed a "dog without a leash" slowly approaching us. He looked mean and as if he had been struck by lighting. Within seconds, I realized it was not a dog-it was actually a coyote. SH**. Since I could not carry both dogs, we all took off running until we found a safe hiding place, and waited for my mom to pick us up. Now, I take dog pepper spray and a stick on our walks. I also try not to look at my phone. Life on a canyon is a little different then life in Fresno! 

CARMEL 2014

My amazing family: Dad, Laurie, Ryan, Me, Haydee, and Nate. We had the time of our lives (once again)!

Loved hearing the bag-pipers play. 

Parents-to-be. Can't wait for JUNE 2014!

I love this man more and more each day. I am not sure how that is possible.

So thankful for these two people. They are so generous during this trip every year. We stay in a beautiful home, eat amazing meals (too many, but that is ok because it is vacation), go to the At&t ProAm Golf Tournament, and shop in downtown Carmel. It is always such a great time. 

See what I mean about the food. I think I gain 10 pounds every year, but it is SO SO SO worth it. Carmel has some of the best food in all of California!

LOVE all of these people. 

I hope you enjoyed looking at all of the pictures. I might be able to sneak a few off my sister-in-law's blog this week and add them to mine. I always feel so BLESSED after uploading my pictures and creating captions for them. Even though Ryan and I miss a lot of our family and friends in Fresno (especially the babies), we are happy and loving our new life in Carlsbad.
