Easter!
For Easter weekend Cody came to spend the weekend with us so he spent the night on Saturday and we all woke up Sunday morning excited to see what the Easter bunny brought us. This year the Easter bunny brought us lots of candy (Mostly all reeses mmm), kites, yo-yo's, pringles, he brought me hair claws and nail polish along with yummy nutri grain bars. After we took pictures with our baskets and played with our yo-yo's a bit we had a yummy breakfast casserole that had been cooking in the crock pot over night as well as fruit and orange juice. We then headed over to my parents where we all went to church at their ward then went to their house to have a great easter dinner consisting of turkey, sweet potatoes, a beautiful salad, hot soft rolls, jello casserole, mashed potatoes and stuffing. After begging my parents to do an easter egg hunt for us they finally gave in even though they thought we were all too old to have an easter egg hunt seeing as how we are all over the age of 19 but you're never too old to have an easter egg hunt, that just means they can hide it harder. The dyeing of our easter eggs was exciting and let me tell ya....the easter egg dying was pretty intense lol. It was a great first Easter as a married couple I can't wait for many more holidays to come with my sweet hubby. He's so appreciative and excited to celebrate all the big and little holidays throughout the year together and he loves all the little things we do to celebrate.

BAM!
Yesterday after I got off of work Dillon and I pretty much became gangstas. We went to a shooting range and tried out a gun we are interested in. We are both going to be getting our concealed weapons permit and we will be purchasing our first gun. Dillon has been doing lots of research on all types of guns and we have gone to look at them and try them out ourselves. It was my first time shooting an actual gun so I was a bit nervous. Dillon shot a few rounds then taught me how a gun works, how to load it and cock it then of course aim and shoot. He stood by me my first couple times shooting the gun and held my arm and put a hand on my back to comfort me and make me feel more comfortable. I don't think i will ever get used to how loud it is shooting in doors even with ear phones on because that was one thing that freaked me out a bit, 2nd the fact that I was holding and shooting an actual loaded gun and 3rd the recoil (even though it wasn't too bad). Dillon let me shoot more than he did because he wants me to be comfortable with a gun and he has been shooting before. It was so fun and such a great new experience, Dillon is a natural at everything and looks sexy doing everything including shooting a gun I am one lucky gal

Temple Visit
Last week we had such a great experience. We had the opportunity to do the temple work for family members on my moms side of the family. She has been working so hard on our family Genealogy and it has been such a blessing in the way that she is having GREAT success finding family members and information on them, she even has been contacted by 3 cousins of hers she never knew she had, IN FACT one of her cousins is flying from Kau'i to St. George this summer and my mom is driving down there to meet with her and pick up files and pictures her cousins has on family members. My mom and her cousins are talking to each other on the phone every day sharing information with each other. It's so exciting especially because these records were pretty much non existent for the longest time, my mom thought she would never be able progress with the work of her family. My parents and Dillon and I took the names of a family of 12 to the temple where we were able to perform baptisms and confirmations. Dillon and I did the baptisms for the family members and my dad baptized us then afterward my dad confirmed Dillon and Dillon confirmed me. It was such a great experience to be able to perform these ordinances for our family members and especially with my husband and have him lay his hand on my head and perform the confirmation. The spirit was so strong we definitely felt the spirits of our family members and their happiness.
Valentines day
Dillon and I just love Holidays one of them being Valentines Day 
When I got up in the morning to get ready for work I hung up the candy letter/poster I made for Dillon on the wall for when he got up to leave for school then I headed out for good ol' work. Throughout the day at work I was sending Dillon texts building up the anticipation for our Valentines Day evening, Dillon had school in the morning but he didn't have to go to actual work because they paid for him and several others to go see Chronicles at the movies for the day (lucky duck) and get paid for it they even bought them gift cards to buy treats there at the theater. I'm so glad he was able to get the job at Wells Fargo it is so good for him and he loves it. After work I had class for a little bit but my teacher let us go home early with it being Valentines day. When I got I was greeted by my sweetie with a huge hug and kisses and a spotless home, when I walked in to our bedroom he had it decorated so pretty and romantic and left me treats and a pot of a pink polka-dot plant on the bed, he is so incredibly created. I then did a "love hunt" (which is a scavenger hunt) for Dillon where he had to perform the task I wrote on one of the cards before he could read the clue. The tasks that were on the card were, "take turns feeding each other chocolate dipped strawberries before reading the next clue" "Share with each other your favorite characteristic about each other" "share favorite memory with each other" "poor a glass of bubbly and take turns making a toast" "sweep your woman into your arms and dance to an entire romantic song before reading the next clue" and "kiss your woman like shes never been kissed before" the last clue led him back in to the bedroom where some surprises were awaiting him. Every Valentines day it is a tradition for us to make at home little pizzas so we had fun making pizzas and eating it with bubbly then for dessert we had refreshing Strawberry Shortcake then spent the rest of the night enjoying each other and the rest of our night. Dillon is so sweet, I love that he loves celebrating Holidays and continuing/making new traditions. He definitely is one of a kind, I'm so glad I found love and I get to keep him forever :)

Chelsey's day of birth!
Yippee! This past Friday I had turned 21 which is exciting because I got to renew my license and now Dillon and I are both legal adults! I don't know whether I should be happy or discouraged about this but for now I will be happy about it lol. I was born in Orem at 6:51 Pm on February 10th 1991! We love to celebrate with food so the day before my birthday we took our free meal birthday cards to Tucanos and enjoyed the fabulous brazillian grill. The next morning I woke up to a cute kitchen decorated in streamers and balloons and a yummy filling breakfast which consisted of orange juice, a berry parfait, crepes, and a breakfast sandwich. After breakfast Dillon painted my nails for my birthday before heading out for class. The whole day I was able to just lay in bed and relax all day which was nice. When Dillon got home from class we went out to nickle city and played a bunch of arcade games in hopes to get lots of tickets to win the kinect but unfortunately we only were able to come home with a bunch of little toys for ourselves. We also went to Brick Oven for their all you can eat pasta for dinner then went to a lounge here in Provo and got several drinks while we lounged around. I had such a great day and was spoiled rotten by my sweet husband. That night Cody called us wanting to do something the next day so he came up to hang out with us. When he got here I made shoyu chicken and pani popos for dinner then we went to the jump place right down the street from our house for a while but left because the old men bodies (Dillon and Cody) were falling apart first Codys hand then Dillons ankles lol. Then we went and got a giant 2 ft crepe which was delicious it was filled with lots of bananas, strawberries and nutella. We ended the night playing Mario on the WII and ate the valentine cupcakes I made. Poor Cody was so tired he ended up just spending the night here at our place and woke up to an unpleasant surprise, lots and lots of snow fall. It's always so fun to do things with family and since we are so busy we hardly get to do much with them so we enjoy when Cody comes to chill with us. He may even come live with us during the summer until he starts school at BYU. That will be fun to have Dillons brother closer to us. Which by the way WE CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SUMMER!
