This summer is just flying by! I can't believe it's already the end of July! Well, as a quick update... I started back to school full-time at a local community college in June. I have decided to get a degree in Graphic Design in addition to my BA in Liberal Arts. I am still working but only one day a week - Saturdays (Argh!). Unfortunately, times have been a little tougher for us recently due to Micah getting laid off in April. He has been diligently seeking new employment but with no luck. Apparently, everyone else in the state of CA is looking for jobs too! Go figure.
On a happier note... we were able to visit the happiest place on Earth for my birthday in June! You get in free on your birthday this year so, being the Disney fanatic that I am, I couldn't turn that down! My brother Jace and his wife Jill, my brother Jantz, my cousin Kiley, and our good friends Trish and Clark met us there for two fun-filled days! Take a look...
The Clan - yes, we like to wear matching shirts. Kiley and Jantz made them for us, they were awesome! However, I don't know why Trish and Clark aren't in this picture; maybe it's b/c they were the only ones too cool to wear our matching shirts! Hmmm...
Micah either broke or severely sprained his wrist three days before we left for Disneyland! You can see his brace that we got for him. He was quite the trooper the whole trip. (He never did get his wrist looked at! Crazy - I know!)
We ate at my favorite restaurant in all of Disneyland - The Blue Bayou. They gave me a special dessert for my birthday - YUM! Like my fuzzy, pink, Mickey Mouse ears? "The Clan" had them specially made for me for my birthday! I loved them!

Trish and Clark at our hotel ready to go have a blast!
Me posing in front of the Matterhorn in my favorite place in the whole world! Look how few people are out there behind me! The first day we were there was so great b/c there was hardly anyone there! I think we went on every ride in the whole park that day!
Another piece of exciting news is that we recently celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary on June 23rd!! I cannot believe that it has already been 5 yrs and we couldn't be happier! I seriously lucked out when I found Micah West! He is so sweet b/c he surprised me with tickets to see "Wicked", at the Orpheum theatre in San Francisco, to celebrate our anniversary!! I have been wanting to see it for sooo long, especially after having seen Phantom at Christmas. We went to our favorite restaurant and then to the musical and had an amazing time!! It was so perfect and I love him more and more every day! I couldn't have asked for a better husband!
Well, the school semester is winding down so we have a couple final trips planned for the summer. We're going to Utah this weekend to visit my family and then heading to Oregon in a couple weeks to see Micah's family. We are really looking forward to spending time with family and friends. I'll try to update this blog as soon as I have some new pictures to share. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer as much as we are! Until next time!... T.T.F.N.!!
