The joys of Spring!

Well, it feels like it has been quite a while since I've posted! We have had so many fun events we've gone to!
We celebrated Robert's 25th birthday March 16th! We had a friends/family get-together at Leatherby's...yum!

Then a week before midterms my family went to DISNEYLAND! We haven't gone all together in almost 2 years...PLUS, St John had never been! So we left the day after Robert's birthday, celebrated it while we were there and also celebrated my Dad's on March 20th! We had a great time!



Believe it or not, yes my Mom AND Dad are behind Robert in this picture :)


On my Dad's birthday, Robert & my Dad left early for Disneyland while we were still waking up and getting ready. They went on Buzz Lightyear for 2 and 1/2 HOURS! They were trying to get the high score! They know all the secrets of what targets get you the most points BUT you still have to have the skills..... That day Robert got the #1 ranking!!!!! We came back later that night and it was beat by about 200k but the workers said the people got stuck on the ride right in front of  Zurg! So.....WITHOUT that advantage my Dad (BRI) and Robert (ROB) got some AWESOME scores!


Also, as most of you know, my oldest sister Jen has been working on losing weight and started up May 2009.  This picture we took in 2006 so 4 years ago!


See a difference? In a matter of 4 years, Heather & I are married, Heather is done with college, I'm about to graduate, and Jen is 80 pounds lighter and counting!!!

Look at her now!!! Sexy Sexy!

Also, Robert & I reminisced at the Snow White Wishing Well where he proposed to me Dec. 13, 2008. Now we have been married for over a year (as of March 6)


Happy 50th Pops!

Then the next weekend, March 26th, we went to see JOHN MAYER directly after my last midterm down in San Jose!!! Oh he is so amazing live! Yay for favorite singers!
(The tickets were part of my Christmas gift this year!)



Then we celebrated my 22nd birthday, Sunday April 4th. On Easter Sunday and General Conference.



(We didn't take one picture! Besides kids and the Easter egg hunt)

THEN, we celebrated Kyle's Birthday (April 13th) and saw my 2 brothers-in-law in the play Beauty & the Beast, Chad was the Beast  and Kyle was the bookseller, villager and gargoyle! My mother-in-law made all the costumes and they were exquisite!




Now we are just getting through school  and work. We do have a "mini-weekend vacation" planned for next week, but just enjoying the WONDERFUL weather!!

Young Bird, New Tricks!

Well, Robert and I are back from our family Disneyland trip and I JUST took my last midterm--Thank goodness! I only have about an hour until we leave for the John Mayer concert down in San Jose tonight (which Robert bought me the tickets for Christmas!) but we finally got a video of the new tricks Robert and I have been teaching Makiya so I thought I'd post them real fast! Enjoy!

♥ Robert's baby boy ♥

Monday, March 1st, right when Robert got home from work, we jumped into my car and drove down to Fresno, CA to pick up our new baby boy.
Then, drove all the way back---yes, in one night!

Welcome to the Campbell Family, Makiya!
(pronounced ma-ky-ya)
(playing on his gym eating a piece of dried banana)

He is a Jenday Conure which are very social, cuddily birds. I did so much research on these types of birds that I feel like I could write my own  book! He is only 5 months old so he's still just a baby! When he hits a year his colors will come all the way in with a bright yellow head, orange tummy and green wings with bright blue ends. He also will be able to whistle numerous tunes, tricks and even say words. They live 25-30 years so we will have him for quite a long time!

(he posed for the camera next to one of his favorite rope toys)

Needless to say, although it was an "anniversary gift" Makiya LOVES Robert. I get the pleasure of staying home with him but the moment Robert's voice is heard or as soon as he walks in the door Makiya flys straight to him! He is a sweet gentle bird who is SPOOOOILED! He has his own tabletop play gym and a nice big cage with tons of toys, ropes, perches, and more! He loves to eat fresh fruits and veggies which is fun to shop in produce for your PET! Robert is a proud "dad". He already has him potty trained and Robert loves to show off  the fact that when he holds him over the toilet and says "Go poop" that he will.

March 6th






This past Saturday, March 6th, Robert & I celebrated our one year anniversary. It is crazy to think of everything we have done and have been through in the past year. Time really does fly by! It is so fun to look back on  the photos and of the big wedding day! We had so much support and loving friends and family members who came to see us on our wedding  day. We really do appreciate everyone who made the trek to good ol' Sacramento and to everyone who helped out! It was a great day that I never want to forget! I can't wait to see what the years to come will bring.




I sure love you honey!!
Eternity is going to be GREAT! ♥
