I love having days off with my husband and baby! :) With Shelden's new fulltime job and me going back to work, we do not have the weekends to hangout with each other. We only have one day off together so we try to make the most of it. We went to Olive Garden for lunch, and headed up to SLO. The weather was beautiful!!! It's been quite the learning experience taking Micah with us everywhere we go (in a good way!). We've been learning what his capacity level is and how long he can be out and about before getting exhausted. We got to sit outside on the grass by the old Mission in SLO. Micah was satisfied and just hanging out with us as we enjoyed the nice weather. It was relaxing to kickback and talk about life with my man. We talked about how blessed we are in our lives. We have it so good and we agreed that we do not want to loose our perspective on how good our lives are. We both are employed, we have a healthy little boy, my parents are allowing us to stay with them so we can save for a house, Micah has grandparents from both sides that are involved in his life (which is really rare these days), we get to serve in an amazing church that loves people and puts God first, we have great friends, and the list goes on and on and on! I am so thankful for where we are at. Hearing about all these horrible things that are happening in the world today does break my heart but it also reminds me about how blessed I am and how I should not be complaining about something as dumb as not wanting to get up for work in the morning. Thank you God for pouring out on our lives!



we noticed how small he looked compared to daddy's flip flop :)
The kicker today:
Shelden has to go to LA tomorrow for a class for his job. Usually when employees go to a class they get to take a nice BMW that they usually loan out to customers when they are getting work done on their cars. So we were excited that he got to take a really nice car...except for they did not have any BMW's available because they were all out on loan to customers. They told shelden he had to rent a car. Okay, that won't be too bad because he could still get a pretty nice ride to take to LA. Well....lo and behold what was awaiting him was a brand spankin' new Ford Fiesta! haha...talk about humility! Haha...we laughed the rest of the day about the good ol fiesta, its electric blue and the dashboard looks like optimus prime from transformers. We are still laughing about it as I am writing this. It's just funny that he went from a 7series BMW to a Ford Fiesta!
7 series BMW
vs.
Ford Fiesta
haha...only some minor differences ;)
