Weekend in San Francisco!



Well, we just got back from San Francisco and Oakland, where we spent a very fun weekend. We initially went there because a mission companion of Corey's got married in the Oakland Temple on Saturday. That gave us an excuse to get out of town. Corey's parents met us there. I absolutely LOVE San Francisco. It is so beautiful. We were able to do a lot of things in the short time that we we there. We went to a Giants baseball game, rode the cable cars, walked around Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39, enjoyed excellent sea food, drove the Golden Gate Bridge and played numerous games of pinochle. The only bad thing was when we were eating at a very fancy seafood restaurant and I bit into my meal and cut myself on a piece of ceramic plate that was in my dish. My mouth wouldn't stop bleeding, and it was very embarrassing. We did get two free dinners though for my injury. Here are some pictures from the trip!! Now we are back to real life. Corey starts summer school on Monday and it goes through the end of July. He is enjoying his week off. I am going to girl's camp soon with my ward. We are just having fun enjoying the nice warm weather in Oklahoma.

One Year Down!

As I am typing this right now, Corey is finishing his last final of his first year of law school. How exciting is that? That means we only have two more years to go. Corey has worked REALLY hard this year and I am so proud of how hard he worked. Corey has read hours upon hours upon hours of books about civil procedure, contracts, and some other boring stuff. I'm just excited to have my husband back and so that we can have a conversation that doesn't include legal jargon!

A Little Catch Up!!

It has been too long since I last posted something. We have been pretty busy around here, so I guess I need to play catch up. A lot has happened since we went to Dallas over a month ago. I quit my job at the end of April. I am a much happier person now! I went home to Vegas for a week and a half at the beginning of May to spend some time with my family. It was a lot of fun. It was nice to get out of town. I left my poor husband behind so that he could take his finals. He has been suffering through finals for about two weeks now. His last one is this Friday and then FREEDOM!! One year of school down, only two more to go! We are leaving for California this weekend to go to a wedding and I will post pictures when we get back. Also, I am going to girl's camp in my ward with the young women in a couple of weeks. Anyways, here are some pictures of me in Vegas. Most of the pictures are at the Bellagio when we went to see the Gardens. There is also pictures of the crazy cat and the new dog, Fenway.

Dallas, TX

So this weekend Corey and I decided to get out of the city and head to Dallas, which is only about a three hour drive from OKC. We decided to make it an anniversary weekend since we will be celebrating three years on Tuesday. We left Saturday morning and stayed in a hotel that night and then came home Sunday. It was really fun to get away from school and work and just enjoy the weekend. When we first got to Dallas we were driving around downtown. We then headed up to the Galleria Mall, which is HUGE, and walked around there for a while. For dinner, Corey wanted to go somewhere new, but we ended up going to Macaroni Grill and it was good! We also visited the JFK 6th Floor Museum. It was really interesting to see where JFK got shot and so we had to take lots of pictures. That is what most of the pictures are from. Overall, Dallas was awesome and can't wait to go back.

Happy Birthday!




So today my little sister turns 17! I can't believe it, she is getting so old. I am so proud of her and everything she does. She is such a good girl and we love her very much. She is the best sister! She was born on April Fool's Day. Hope you have a great birthday McCall! (Don't hate me for the picture I posted.)

Ciara says I have to write something on our blog. Last week was spring break and I went to Mexico. It was a lot of fun. Did some fishing and playing on the beach. I didn't take any picutes in Mexico, hopefully I will remember the camera next time. Other than that all I pretty much do is read books and hope that I don't get called on in class. UNLV lost to Kansas...that was sad but I didn't expect them to win. We finally got to watch a game on TV and they lost.

March Madness!



The best time of the year has officially begun. I love March for one reason and that is college basketball and the filling out of the brackets. Since UNLV became the MWC champs on Saturday, they are in the tournament this year!! Unfortunately if they make it past the first round then they get to play Kansas. I am making Kansas my national champs this year so when UNLV plays them at least they can say that they lost to the national champions. Good Luck Rebels!! Game play starts this Thursday against Kent State. Anyways, in other news my husband is spring breaking it on a trip to Mexico with his dad, brother, friends, etc... Basically they all went on a Man's Trip. He totally deserves this with how hard he works everyday in law school. He has been gone since Friday and there is no cell phone connection where they go. I can only imagine what a bunch of guys do in a cabin with access to four wheelers and fireworks. He comes home this Friday and I can't wait!! At least my mom has been here since last Thursday to keep me company. She just left this morning, but I had an awesome time hanging out with her. We rented movies, ate at Mimi's twice and just hung out and RELAXED. It was a great weekend.
