Grandma Funeral

About 2 months ago Jordan and I made a fast trip up to Carey Idaho.  It was so hard to say good bye to my Grandma Bame.  She was such an amazing person that I will truly miss spending time with her.  At work it has been different walking pass her room without stopping in to say hi or give a hug.  I will treasure so many memories with her.  It was a great weekend because we were together as a family celebrating her life and also Mothers Day.  I wanted to share a couple of pictures from our trip.

This was my grandparents house up in Carey.  When they lived there it was a light green color so you couldn't miss it.  It was hard seeing it changed in so many ways.  I just remember all the HOT summers that we would spend up there I will never forget those days.  Above are also pictures of both my Grandpa and Uncle head stones.  I am so glad that they all could be laid to rest so close together.  I wished it wasn't a 5 hour drive to see them though.

Grandma Bame

One more Angel got sent up to Heaven on the morning of April 29th.  Grandma Bame will be missed here on earth but we know she is with so many loved ones that have passed on.  I have so many great memories of her from when I was a child until the day that she died.  I am forever grateful for the past 5 years that I got to spend side by side with her.  

Grandma Bame was so sweet and caring.  She wouldn't say anything to make someone sad or feel down.  She was always so positive on life and looked for the best in everything.  I hope I can become like her and always lean on her example.  The past couple of weeks I will treasure forever the time I got to spend with her.  She told me one afternoon that when she got to Heaven she will go find my children.  I know that they are being spoiled with having all my grandparents with them.  I will always miss our time together in my car going down to treatments.  I will miss her everyday but I know she is looking down on my family and keeping us safe.  

Grandma We Love You So Much!! 

Hello Everybody

Jordan and I had an awesome Spring Break!!  We got to go on a cruise with my parents to Mexico.  This was Jordan first cruise and he says that there are many more to come.  Who wouldn't love a week of no cooking, cleaning, school, and work.  Just pure relaxation and enjoying being together.  We left Utah on Saturday March 13th in the snow storm which put our flight almost a hour late.  Since it was taking so long to leave SLC we got to watch Blind Side on the plane.  After a very long hour and half of digging my nails in both Jordan and my mom arms we finally landed in LAX.  Sunday morning came and we got to go to our new home for the week.  First things first when we got on we headed straight to the Ledo Deck for FOOD!!  Here is a picture of us on my parents balcony in Long Beach.  

The first two days on the ship were sea days.  We enjoyed being lazy and playing some card games.  Jordan and I creamed my parents in Canasta so they had to buy us stuff in ports.  The second night we had a formal night.  It was fun getting all dressed up and taking tons of pictures.  

Jordan was such a stud in his suit.  We loved it how everyone asked if we were brother and sister. (as we stood there holding hands)  That night at dinner the servers danced for us but we forgot our camera.  But from then on we took it with us.  

Our first stop was in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  We got there around 7 in the morning and left around 10 at night.  When we first got there they had 2 other ships in port.  It's amazing how they can control the ships to swing them around and get in a very tight place without hitting anything. 

 This picture we took while backing into port.  It's kinda looking the same way as down town were we spent most of our time.  We grabbed a taxi and put our life's in danger by their way of driving.  We walked around down town to the different shops and then headed back to the ship.  It was pretty funny because we were there on St. Patrick's day and you could tell who the Americans were since we were all wearing green. 

 This was taken right when we got off the ship.  Poor Jordan forgot sunglasses but since we won in cards my parents bought him a pair.  Good thing we know our games.  

This picture was while we were down town.  It was such beautiful weather but after walking around it got really hot really fast.  While walking down by the beach they had so many sand figurine's being made.  It was so interesting looking at them and also seeing some of them being made.  P.S. notice Jordan nice shades also our sweet St. Patrick day shirts.

The next day we were in Mazatlan, Mexico.  We were the only cruise ship at this port so it wasn't that busy.  We took a open taxi to the Golden Zone shopping area.  We mostly spent our time on the beach walking around.  

Once again the weather was so amazing.  I love playing in the ocean but the water was a little cold.  Jordan wore his Nike's and they got a nice wash when the water came up higher and he couldn't run away.  He got a new pair of flip flops but that meant I could get a kissing picture in the water. 

Oh how cute!!

This was one of the hotels right on the beach.  I wanted a picture at each port saying where we were.

Our last stop was at the beautiful Cabo San Lucas.  This has always been a favorite to bad your only there for a couple of hours.  The water is to shallow for the ships to dock close so you get to take the little shuttles to the land.

Here was our ship the Splender.  Our rooms were in the very back of the ship which was awesome so you could see were you have been.

Here are our new friends that we made in Cabo.  The ship left there about 4 in the afternoon then we had our second formal night.  Here is another picture of us all dressed up.  

After leaving Cabo we had a "Fun Day" at sea.  Then it was back to Long Beach which was really sad.  The next few pictures are some of our new family members.  Kinda sad because they wouldn't let us take them..

We want to thank my parents for a great week and we can't wait for our next trip. 

LoVe

February is such a good month for Jordan and I since we get to celebrate our love for each other twice in one month.  For Valentines Day we went out to dinner on Saturday night then went to his parents house to hang out with Heather and Dax.  It was so great to see them. Then the next weekend we got to celebrate our one year anniversary.  I can't believe that it's been a year since I married the love of my life.  This year has gone by so fast and we are stronger then ever.  For dinner we went to the Gateway Mall to California Pizza Kitchen.  We ate there on the day of our wedding so it was great to go back and look back on the fun memories.  I love Jordan so much he is an amazing man.  Thanks Honey for everything and all the hard work you do.      

Birthday Children

The past two weeks Jordan and I celebrated our birthdays.  Mine was on the 12th and my day consisted of working and going to school.  Later on that night we did go to dinner then played some games.  For Jordan birthday on the 19th he got the day off from work.  I surprised him by coming home early from work to spend the day with him.  We watched a movie then went to dinner.  The next day we had some friends over for dinner and to play games.  We had so much fun celebrated with family and friends.  Thanks for the many birthday wishes.
Our cute little nephew birthday was on the same day as Jordan.  We hope Dax had a great day!  I can't believe he is 3 years old now.  Lots of love to him!!
 A little update on Jordan health...  He is doing better we did end up going back to the emergency room but everything checked out ok.  After all this he did end up coming down with Bronchitis.  He is finally getting back to normal.  So yes he was sick during New Years so we ended up sleeping through it.  I hope maybe next Christmas and New Years we will all be healthy to enjoy the Holidays.   

What a Christmas!!

This Christmas has been very different then most.  Christmas Eve we spent it with my side of the family.  Jordan had to work until 4 but after that the fun was going to start.  We went to my parents house and had dinner then open the gifts that we gave to my parents and also my brother and sister in law.  Thanks guys for the pictures and also the game set.  We also want to thank my parents for the gifts that they gave us.  A special thanks for the temperature body reader that came in handing later..  We really enjoyed the time that we get to spend with our families.  We had to leave a little bit earlier so that we would be asleep when Santa came to our house.

Christmas morning was so much fun.  Jordan woke me up around 7:30 in the morning to go open gifts.  We both got a lot of clothes and then there was still a couple presents under the tree.  We had some gifts from Santa which we both love.  Thanks for many fun family nights at our house with our new game system.  After gifts we got ready and headed out to Jordan parents house.  Thanks Chris and Michelle for the clothes and also the games.  We ended up going and seeing his grandparents and then after we saw everyone we went back to his parents house.  This is when he started of complaining of a bad headache and also he had a little fever.  We hurried and ate then went home to tuck him in bed.

After 10:30 at night I called my dad to see if he would come over to give Jordan a blessing.  For a couple of hours he was running a high fever above 102 and was complaining of back and stomach pains.  When my parents were on the way over Jordan said he couldn't take it any longer.  I called my parents and said lets take him to the emergency room.  He did really good on the car ride until the very end where he started to get really sick to his stomach.  Once we got to LDS Hospital they took him right back and hooked an IV up.  After many test and a couple of bags of IV they took him back to get a CT scan.  Everything turned out normal except his white cell count.  While in the hospital his fever did get up around 104 and that really scared me.  They released him around 2 am with some pain pills and some nausea medicine.   As of today he is still running a little fever but not to high.  I'm just glad that he can sleep a lot so maybe he can't feel the pain as much.  I will keep you updated on him if we ever find out whats going on.

We hope everyone had a great Christmas and got to spend with the people you love.

Christmas Time at the Neeley's

Jordan and I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas this year..  We have had so much fun decorating our house.  We have a very beautiful tree which I want to keep up all year round.  Here are a couple of pictures of our cute house!!

The tree was so much fun to decorate. There is so many cute colors and designs to go with. We just really loved the blue.

As you can see a lot of our decor is snowman. I have always thought they were so cute and so many different styles. Thanks to our parents for helping us get everything we need.
