Happy Un-Birthday!






This weekend was so great! Clint is going to be in Afghanistan for his actual birthday, so we decided to have his birthday on friday. It was great, I made a cake and decorated the apartment. Then on saturday we went to Sea World, and Olive Garden for dinner. Clint got off early on friday which was really nice. We got to spend pretty much the whole day together. He got 30 Rock season 3, an external hard drive case, The Complete Western Stories of Elmore Leonard, and some new shoes. Saturday was the first time that Clint has been to Sea World, it was a lot of fun! Then we had one of his favorite dinners for his birthday dinner on Sunday, Navajo Tacos, very easy to please. The weekends are the best because we get to spend every minute together, definitely can't get enough of each other.

Surfing




Clint and I went surfing for the first time on Saturday. It was so much fun! And we did way better than either of us expected. We went with our neighbors and friends Dollie and Ryan. We both got up on the board, it was great. I am scared of the ocean, but I wasn't a baby this time, and it turns out I'm not scared all the time.

Memorial Weekend









Clint and I got to go home to Utah for Memorial Day weekend. It was so nice. The drive there took us 16 hours because of a stupid accident, but we made it. We got there early Saturday morning. My parents had cinnamon rolls there waiting for us. That night we went over to Clint's sister and brother-in-laws house. It was great! We had such a good dinner, played guitar hero with vocals, and Clint got to see Tungsten for the first time. Which that little boy just keeps getting cuter and cuter. Then Sunday we got to go to my cousin Tyler's homecoming, I am so happy he is home!! It was so good to see him. We just hungout and talked, and Clint played Botchy Ball with my cousins. I love seeing all of my cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. Then that evening we went over to Clint's parents house for dinner and visiting for the night. Monday was great, in the morning we went to the Bluffdale cemetary where the American Legion came and did a wonderful program. Clint had the opportunity to sit with the Veterans, he was the only younger guy sitting there, such an honor. Then Clint and I took Grace and Melanie to get a Jamba Juice, so good! After, we went bac to Clint's house for a BBQ, all of his family was there and my parents came over. It was so much fun! Definitely a genuine BBQ, so much good food! I made sunflower cupcakes. It was an easy drive home, which was nice.
Clint got promoted to Corporal on Wednesday! It is so exciting, he has done such a great job, and put in so much hard work! He got his blood stripes and his new chevrons, so he is excited to get those put on his uniform. I am super proud of him!! And we just got a new niece! Clint's sister just had their fourth baby, her name is Ellee Renee Millward, and she is soooo cute!! It's been a pretty good week so far, and we get to go to the Newport Temple tonight.
