A Cup O' Tea

Mike Grew up in Oakdale California which is about an hour from Tracy where we live. He grew up with this chick named Erica. We started hanging out and I love her! She is so awesome. This is her and her daughter Aiden. They came to Tracy to have dinner with me and go to the pool. Since Mike gets off so late and so did Erica that night, she and Aiden just spent the night so they wouldn't have to drive an hour and Aiden was asleep by the time Mike got home and so we all talked for a couple hours and I heard a lot of good stories of them growing up.



My new sister-in-law Kate and I went to Wells Fargo and they had this cardboard cutout thing so we asked a teller to take our picture. She pulled her hair through the hole with her head to give it a more realistic look and I have 3 arms. we look funny.


Some guests that are staying at Mike's parents' house came with my father in law and new brother-in-law Brandon to see a firework show for Pioneer Day. It was a pretty good show. a field near where we were standing caught on fire and was all ash the next day. We must have left in perfect timing.

Cute little Brandon... Oh and he is straight gangster by the way...obviously


My favorite Dad at our Parry family reunion. He looks like a biker or a thug but he wears it well whatever it is

Me and some cousins and sibling at the reunion... Good times. This pictures captures the most exciting activity we did the whole time.



Me and my part time lover, full time cousin Kimberly Camberlango. She is so hot...even if she is camping


Sister-in-law and my very handsome nephew Jack who won't even touch me with a stick or look at me for bribes. But he seems like a nice enough sort.

My lover Kim, brother Jacob and sister-in-law Kate doing more exciting things...
Like sitting

My beautiful niece Cadence kept biffing it while she was walking. She has one band-aid on her knee in this picture but the next couple of hours after that she had like 4. Poor girl. And my mom wasn't feeling well so she was asleep in the cabin and right when she woke up and came out to join us Cadence started crying for Grandma. My mom is the best Grandma I know... That isn't a grandma to me of course


New cousin Cassidy, new BF Erica and I went to the Turlock city fair to see the Doobie Brothers perform and went the wrong night. So we ended up having to be tortured through Little Big Town.... which is my least favorite type of music, Country. Ugh. So we went the next night and saw The Doobie Brothers and got one of those old fashioned pictures taken. It was my first time and I love it. I will scan it in the next time I have access to a scanner and post it because it really is awesome.



Us at the fair in the Jurassic Park Journey or whatever they called it

I played a dart game and popped a balloon my first 2 tries and then missed but then with my last one I popped like 4 at the same time. I won a cute little frog wearing a crown for Mike and a teddy bear for Erica and Cassidy! I am an amazing dart player.


The hat that was fashioned especially for me at my bridal shower thrown for me by my sister in laws and a close friend of Mike's family "Aunt" Kristen. They made it tea party themed which was so cute. and I scored on gifts by the way! Shout out to whoever contributed!





Mike and I are seeing who can get the highest score on songs. I won most of the time I am not going to lie... like Zach and my mom do... I was kicking butt! And Mike is not wearing a shirt by the way because if you notice I am wearing it. We were taking pictures for Zach and were wearing the same outfits in them. Zach is a genius!



One of Mike's friends that works for the same company and lives in the same apartment complex got a dog. Since they work all day everyday I go over there to dog sit everyday. Plus they have cable and we don't which is a huge bonus! She is so cute. She is half border Collie and half Rottweiler. I love her and I am going to have to give her up in a month.








Thank you Zach for making me the best wedding video ever! You are awesome! I watch it almost everyday because I love it so much and can't wait for everybody else to see it! Until next time.

Remember me?

Erin (Attractive) Spears (click on her name to see her blog!) did this and I thought it would be fun! So do it please... and you can do a short one for Mike if you want for those of you who have met him and want to but only after you do a memory for me! :) to make this more fun I will put some old pictures of me on here (some very embarrassing) in hopes of maybe helping refresh some of your minds! You are pretty much going to watch me grow up..some of you against your will but oh well... You will do it and enjoy yourself in the process!

Leave a comment on this post of any memory you have of me. Whether you know me a little or a lot. It could be silly or funny or sentimental or whatever. Then do a similar post on your blog and I'll do the same. Really it's fun! :)

Wanna come over?

My internet cuts in and out so I am going to just explain my pictures... Mike plays softball with people he works with. We went to his game yesterday and it made me miss softball so much! He said I could probably play on his team but NO WAY... I haven't played in years and I do not want to be the reason their team loses. Everyone he works with would shun him! Anyway.... I hung out in the dugout handing out sunflower seeds and sour skittles to the players.

Mike giving me thumbs up a few minutes before he goes out to bat



That ball that you see flying away from his bat actually ended up going really far but into the foul zone...whoops


Us after the game in our baseball caps. He has had sore elbows for about a month now, he probably pulled his tendons installing his systems but who knows, so after the game we went to wal-mart to get an ice pack because his elbows were killing him. Poor guy


I have gotten a request to post pictures of where I live. Mike's company furnished our apartment and pays our rent and utilities. It is a really sweet deal and it is nice furniture. It is a a brand new really nice apartment with a nice pool area and big BBQ areas. I enjoy it here. And I don't know if you can tell by zooming in or not Eliza, but that is Twilight sitting on my table... Yes it is in my possession now and I will begin reading it (Against my will, might I add) within the next couple of days when I finish the other book I am reading.




That is all for now... I need to hurry up and post this before my internet goes out. I'll post more a little bit later. Love you all.

Date night!

Usually Mike works from between 9 am and 1 pm to between 11 pm and 1 am. It is pretty random. And he works Monday through Saturday. So he works long hours several days a week and I miss him all day! I have been trying to find a second job since the job I got at Pac Sun only gives me 3 hours once every 2 weeks which obviously doesn't pay the bills and just to keep myself busy. Mike's office is in the area of Merced now which is an hour and a half away and he has to drive there and back every day. Most of his co-workers have stayed in a hotel the majority of the week to save from traveling. Mike comes home every night though. Yesterday there were a few jobs that needed to be done 30 minutes away from us and since everyone else was still in Merced, Mike took care of those ones and there was no sense in driving another hour away to get a little bit more work and so he got off at 4 pm!!!!! That never happens!!! I was so excited to hear I wasn't going to be bored out of my mind all night. He got home around 4:45 with a rose for me... He is the nicest husband ever! We went to Outback for dinner and then went to see Hancock which, by the way, was very entertaining. We really enjoyed it. We went and bought a couple movies in the $5.00 bin at Wal Mart (which is our favorite) and I got The Princess Bride for only $4.00!! We went home and watched 2 movies and then went to bed. It was one of the best nights ever. I forgot to take pictures of is on our date. Oops OK?

Fun Weekend

Mike and I had some people that he works with and his cousin Cassidy over this weekend to have a card game, guitar hero, super nintendo night. It was really fun. I was killing EVERYONE at super nintendo. Mike warned everyone, when they were talking crap that they would win, that his wife was going to KILL them. And I did. Oh and I found out that one of the other girls that lives here in these apartments because her husband works with Mike, has the same maiden name as me. Her name is Caitlin Parry. We did some research and she is my 4th cousin or something. Pretty awesome huh? Here are some pictures!

Here is me with Caitlin Parry!
