BBQ in the Park!!!

So this all started with me one day being bored, and looking up fun things to do in Tucson! I read about this park called Agua Caliente, it was suppose to be Tucson's best kept secret. I decided I wanted to go here one day!







Jump head a few months. Ryan and I were going to BBQ at our apartment. We went and bought coal, lighter fluid and a lighter. It wasn't time for dinner so we were trying to decided what to do before that. I mentioned playing frisbeee and he said are there any parks with grills??? Then I remembered about the park Agua Caliente and decided I wanted to go there to BBQ and play frisbee.

Starting the Fire!!!

Got the Hamburgers on!

Yum!!!

Side note my parents came up a couple weeks later and we took them there! We also saw some turtles that were super cute!

Trials!

So Ryan had been praying to see if he should get a job or just focus on school. Last year he focused on school while working for a teacher a couple hours a week. This year he felt impressed to get a job. We decided we could still live off of what I made but could save his for the pricey tuition bills. Heavenly father however had different plans. Ryan got his perfect job of working 3 nights a week and always having weekends off at Kmart. He could even study a little while at work. A couple weeks later his motorcycle broke down and we had to fix the part that takes the gas to the engine. Right before we go to palm springs the window motor in my cars goes out we had to get that fixed. Then just last week I have a blow out with my tires. So Ryan new job was able to pay for all that. Not what we wanted to spend the money on but everything worked out. Now hopefully we can save that money for winter tuition.

Annies Apples!

Some girls at work told me about an Apple Orchard called Annie's Apples. You go to pick your own apples, pears, and peaches. Then a couple miles away they have a farm you can go pick your own vegetables and at the end of September through October they have pumpkins! So on Saturday Ryan and I took a drive out to Wilcox. (He made me drive so he could study). It was lots of fun. I will attempt to bake an apple pie and we will carve pumpkins in a couple weeks!

~~I love Saturday adventures~~

Palm Springs!

So we've been going on lots of weekend trips lately. A couple weeks ago we went to palm springs. We had a nice relaxing time and had fun at a water park there.

The sunset as we arrived!

Also while we were there palm springs has a walk of fame similar to Hollywoods Stars!



Othere than that we just relaxed at our Resort. We don't have cable so Ryan got in his football ESPN watching, while I watched a movie!

I'm posting this from my new phone. We got them a couple weeks ago they are touch screens with the
internet. Anyways Ryan is back in school full time and working 30 hours a weeke is stressed out and had to study today. I miss Saturdays when we would spend the day together. Today though i am just his cook maid and massage theropist

California

Road Trip Lets all go! Heather, Ryan and I went on a Weekend trip to California. Heather drove up to Tucson Thursday night, and Friday morning we took of to Colettes house in California. We tried out Del Mar beach. Heather and I got about half way into the ocean, to a little above our waists while Ryan played in the waves. It was cold. Then Ryan and I (mostly Ryan) Created Crab Island.

We woke up early Saturday morning to drive to Knotts berry Farm but first, stopped off at the airport to pick up my Dad and sisters. We spent the whole day there 10am-11pm. What a long day!

Desi was shaking and about to cry but our 3rd time going on the accelorator, we convinced her to go and she loved it and rode it again. The ride is only 26 sec long and you go about 80 mph

We rode the pony's!

Sunday morning we drove to the Mormon Balaton in Old town San Diego. Great experience they have recently redone it to make it better!
