Paradise!!!!!!

Ken and I took an amazing 10 day trip to TCI in the Caribbean. We went at the end of May and it was so beautiful!!!! Here we are on the plane. the water was so warm and clear and so perfect!!! The sand was so soft and white it was like walking on flour!! The sunsets were so pretty every night! We did so much stuff and took so many pictures that there are way to many to choose from. We went scuba diving and saw soooo many fish, turtles, sting rays, barracudas, lobsters, crabs, and even sharks!!!! On the first dive a shark came right up to our group and circled us all a few times. It was AMAZING!!! But of course we forgot the camera on the boat!! We also did tons of snorkeling!! We went parasailing.... Kayaking..... 4 wheeling...... It truly was beautiful and we loved every second!

Hospital Wedding

So there is much drama in the Heald family as of late. I won't get into it but my brother was seriously hurt and has been in the hospital for over a week now. Here he is showing some of his battle wounds. He is such a thug with his juice box and balloon ;) A brush with death among other things made Jake and Aubrey decide that they didn't want to wait any longer and so in a day they threw together a wedding!! Never a dull moment around here. But it was a nice break from the bad stuff :) The blushing bride got ready in the hospital bathroom. Hospital hallways make for a great "isle" Jake had to get pain meds right before so he could stand for the ceremony. He had to sit while he waited for Aubrey. Exchanging rings. You may kiss the bride!! They even had a cake! Mr and Mrs Heald It turned out very nice though Jake was pretty wore out after it all. Congrats Jake and Aubrey

Swimming!!!

On Friday I was trying to clean my house and not really feeling like it. Ken was off doing his dive certification and I was really jealous!! So Kristian decided to take his boys swimming and invited me and Donovan to go along. We jumped at the chance. The boys enjoyed the slide. Sabien.... I love his face! Then it was Alaster's turn. Same face!! You can tell they are brothers ;) Here comes Donovan. It doesn't look like it but he thought it was fun. Just chillin'. Sabien didn't like me taking his picture so I only got the one on the slide. It was hilarious when Donovan finally figured out what this did when it dumped a full bucket of water on his head! I was laughing so hard :D Alaster was getting out of the pool and walked right through this fountain. He struggled but it was much more fun than just going around I guess :) Kristian and I had a good chat and the boys had a blast. It was so nice to relax and enjoy the water. I am so ready for summer!!

Turks and Caicos

Uncle Sam was really good to us this year so we decided to use part of our tax return to go on a great vacation! We are going to take Donovan to San Diego in June and he is super excited. Sea World and Lego Land.... he can hardly wait!!! But before that Ken and I are going to spend 10 days in the Carribean. I can hardly stand it. It is so beautiful and some of the best dive sites in the world. Ken got his dive certification this week so we are all set!! Gorgeous water and white sandy beaches........ (sigh) it's a beautiful thing!!!

Movies!!!

Last night we had crab legs for dinner. They are my new favorite thing :) Donovan was SO excited. He loves the claw :) I made it with asparagus which Donovan has never had before. He LOVED it. I was a little surprised but he has good taste. He even asked for seconds. What a good boy. Then we made popcorn and watched a movie. Donovan has never seen an air popper either (he is so sheltered) so he was fascinated. It was a good night. Then today we went to Red Robyn for lunch. He even got a milkshake... such a spoiled little boy. Then we went and saw Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Donovan really liked it and it wasn't so bad for a grown up either. It was a really great day!!!!! Love you Kiddo :)

In The Venue

Tonight KHP had a show at In the Venue in Salt Lake. They were the only local band and the rest were touring bands. The headliner was Otep. They rest of the bands were all Heavy Metal screamer bands so the boys were a little nervous how they would be received. They have yet to be boo'd so they were hoping that tonight wasn't the night. And they did awesome. The crowd were into it and jumping around. The pictures aren't all that great because I had to stand back so I didn't get knocked over. It was a really great show as always!!!

Happy Valentine's Day

Yep still way behind but thought I would share our Valentine's day. I am the best wife ever and decided to get my husband a hand gun. There is no way I could have picked it out myself so I surprised him in the morning and we headed out to impact guns. He picked out a Glock and is a very happy man!!! We did some target practice and I shot a hand gun for the very first time. I was so nervous but I really enjoyed it. And here are my first 3 shots....not bad right?! I shot a 9mm and a 45. We had a great time. Then we went shopping for me. Ken was racking his brain and then said there is no way he could top my gift ;) I was happy with my cute new watch. It was a good day and was happy to have Ken in the same country for this one :)
