VEGAS!!

Wes and I decided last minute to jump in the car and go to Vegas for a couple of days. I had gotten some time off of work to go camping in Carpenteria and Wes just happened to have 3 days off in a row. The whole camping thing didn't work out because everyone got sick so Wes and I decided to go to Vegas. Since it is only 4 hours away we thought it would be a great little trip. We ended up getting a great deal at the Circus Circus that sealed the deal. On Wed we drove up and came back on Friday. We just relaxed and walked around mostly. We both haven't seen a ton of Vegas before so we got a chance to go exploring. We went through all of the hotels and did some shopping. It was really fun to just get away from life for a little bit. Even though it was short it was memorable and we should be spontaneous more often!

Anniversaries and Graduations

So I know that I have not posted anything new in a while so I thought that I would recap the month of May in order to get everything in. It started out great when on May 5th we celebrated our 2 year anniversary. Wes had been away being sneaky the couple days before so I had no idea what he was doing. We both ended up being off the Monday before so we just spent the day together and celebrated then. It was the best that I could have hoped for. We went out to dinner and lounged around. Sometime during the day Wes brought me over to his parents house to show me what he had been working on. He made this gorgeous sign for me. He found an old cupboard door and stained and painted it. He then added a shelf and painted forever on it. I love homemade gifts and if Wes is making them I know they are going to be fabulous. I was so touched and it was just the best anniversary anyone could ask for!

The rest of May was kind of a blur because Wes was finishing up at the Academy. He finally finished on May 22nd and I couldn't have been more proud of him. It was an amazing ceremony and so touching. We went to a graduation party afterwards and I got to meet all of his fellow classmates and instructors. We had a blast even though everyone around us was drunk and it was the perfect end to a very stressful 6 months. He is now home a lot more which is so nice. He was just home for 4 days in row and then only has to work for 2 days and has 4 MORE days off. It's crazy but he is due for a much needed break. We had a great and crazy month and we are so excited for Summer to start especially since I am offically going part time at work in a week. I can't wait especially since Wes gets so much time off. I get jealous very easily when he doesn't have to work!

On our way to Wes's graduation a party!
