Tyler is accepted!!!

This weekend Tyler got his acceptance letter to the University of Utah! We are pretty excited! We are so proud of him! He has done great and will do great finishing out school up there! YAY!!!

Busy weekend!!!

So we have had quite the busy week/weekend. Tyler worked 12 hour shifts the last four days in a row, my best friend Danielle Taylor came up and helped Brett with a volleyball camp, and i was there helping them everyday, etc. Then last night when we think we will finally have time to relax, we went to go get a movie with our friend Braden Bagley. Then this happened...














Yup! A flat tire when all we were doing was going down the street and back! ha ha just our luck and a great addition to a busy weekend! But that didn't get the boys down and they did great!
Then we woke up early this morning and helped Tyler's aunt Pam lay sod in her backyard. This was at the house that we just moved out of! I couldn't believe the difference the sod made! The yard looks great now! I hadn't ever laid sod before and i thought it was so cool to see the before and after! But of course i forgot to take a before pict, but here are some after picts! Me and Donna were the carriers, Tyler was the "decorative slant specialist", our friend Mike Costa was our "raker" and the rest of the men just laid it all out there! We all got some pizza after that Mike and Tyler went and made from Lotsa Motsa and we ended up getting done pretty fast!

Too young to graduate???

We just went to my little brother Riley's high school graduation. It was fun and neat to see him walk! The thing is i kept looking around at all the kids graduating. They were freshmen when i graduated and i couldn't let it go that they we actually old enough to graduate because they all look like they did when they were freshmen! I blew my mind! And it got me thinking that my sister Mackenzie will be graduating in two more years and she still seems like a baby to me! ha ha Its just crazy how that works! Does anyone else ever feel that way???

We went to Tucanos for lunch before! For anyone who hasn't been there, you better go! It's amazing! We love it! Then we went shopping for a while and went to the graduation and went back to my parents and Riley opened gifts and we had icecream! It was a fun day and fun to be around everyone as usual!

We also recently went to Riley's seminary graduation. Good job Riley! We are proud of you and know you'll do great in the real world! ha ha

A night in St. George

We went down to St. George with our friend Braden Bagley. We met up with our friends Lety Gonzalez, and Marci and Staci Waters. It was a lot of fun! We ate at the famous In and Out Burger, Cafe Rio, and Pirates Pizza. We went shopping, and played glow in the dark miniature golf. Tyler won some tickets in the arcade from a basketball shooting game and from Deal or No Deal and got a cool blow up guitar. We watched Disturbia and played Phase 10. I know... a lot to fit in to a one night trip! It was fun! The best part though, is that we bought a TV! We got money from graduation to put towards a TV and we found a good deal on one. It's a 40 inch flat screen 1080 high definition. Tyler said it's his little baby. ha ha It was a good get away and it was fun to get to spend time with friends.

 

Chelsey and Melissa's Weddings

Last weekend i went to two wedding receptions for two of my teammates from Snow College on the same day! Tyler had to work so i journeyed up there by myself and met up with other teammates. The first one we went to was Melissa and Everton's. Melissa played basketball with me and Everton was on the boys basketball team. He was our good friend last year, and even though he spoke little english (cuz he is from Brazil), Melissa taught him about the gospel and he was baptized. That was a neat thing for us to see. Now they got married in the Manti temple i just think it is so awesome! He is a sweetheart and Melissa is too! I just love them!

Next one that we went to was Chelsey and Jordan's. Chelsey Brown was on my basketball team and Jordan played football at Snow. Theirs was in Chelsey's massive backyard that was gorgeous. They even had a little stream running through it! They got married in the Salt Lake temple and i'm so excited for them. Especially because Chelsey always told our team that she wasn't getting married until she was 30! :)

It was so fun to meet up with our old teammates and i hope we do it again soon! I love you all!

Visiting Logan

We went up to Logan at the beginning of last week to check things out up there. We stayed at my Uncle Wayne's house. They have the three cutest little kids Dallen, Jordan, and Sophie. The boys just wanted to beat Tyler up the whole time, and it was kinda funny to watch because they are so little! There were times when they got heated though! The littlest one punch Tyler in the eye (which was kinda funny too, but we felt bad). We looked for jobs and apartments and to our dismay, there are absolutely no nursing jobs in Logan Utah right now! We spent all day searching and there wasn't anything for me but a lot of opportunities for Tyler. So this has made us start to consider going to University of Utah for Tyler because there are a lot of jobs around in Salt Lake! But we still had fun! We went to eat with one of my best friends Danielle Taylor and one of Tyler's friends from high school Afton and her husband Trevor. We also had fun playing Guitar Hero and Mario Kart at Wayne and Shelly's! Their house is amazing!

Cori's birthday!

I still can't believe I'm 21! My birthday was great! I have awesome friends and family! My cousin Laken came down and stayed the weekend with me because Tyler had to work all day on my birthday. It was sad, but it worked out ok! Me and Laken went to dinner with Donna to El Mexicano! Its the best mexican place south of Springville ha ha. I love it! Then we went shopping for hours! It was awesome. After that me and Laken watched a movie and met Tyler and some friends over at Brett and Donna's for brownies and icecream! They were delicious! Thanks Donna! Then we all watched  "So I Married An Axe Murder". If you haven't seen that movie, it's old and hilarious! Go see it! :) Thanks for the sweet presents everyone! 

The boys were trying to be all cool! ha ha
