Happy Anniversary! And the Zoo!

Corey & Calene Forever

It's been a couple weeks, but it's time to play catch up once again! Corey and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary on the 19th. It's funny because sometimes I think of that 3 years as how long we've known each other...but in reality we've known each other WAY longer than that!! We started dating when I was 17, a junior in high school. (Ok,the summer of 2002-before my junior year, when I was 16, if ya wanna count the "hangin out" faze...ha ha) His youngest brother , Jade, was around 7 years old and his little sis, Tehya, was about 3. Now they are 15 and 11!! It's so crazy when I think of it that way. Anyways, 8 years is a long time....but I know that if we are doing what we are supposed to and living the way our Father in Heaven would have us live, we will be blessed to have each other for all eternity.:)

To celebrate we got the night off from Emery and were able to steal a few hours away for dinner at The Olive Garden...YUM! and ice cream:) It kinda stinks to have our anniversary in the middle of selling in the summer because he can't get the day or even weekend off, we don't have time to go anywhere. So dinner is pretty much it! But we enjoyed every bit of our time together and we are trying to make a trip to Sea World in San Antonio some time so we'll count that! (Ok, so he doesn't know that this is happening, but sorry babe its GOING to happen!:)

Alright, next up......the ZOO!!! Oh how Emery loved the zoo. Her eyes were wide the whole time, pointing and saying "whasat whasat?" It was cute. We went with Noelle and her little Emrie. We saw gigantic turtles, giraffes, lions, tigers, orangutans, crocodiles, Rhinos, different fish and birds.....Hmmmm what else!?

It was definitely a hot day but with lots of sunscreen for the kids and lots of water with a few cool treats we made it through alive!
