Ty's 24th Adventures

Well, Tyler's birthday was a lot of fun! I woke up at 2am and decorated our front room with balloons, candy, sticky notes of things I love about him (hung up on the wall in the shape of I (heart) U), and presents. Then I went back to bed, well tried too, but I was too excited! Eventually, I got some sleep and then Tyler finally woke up and was super surprised! :D
He got:
Two AE shirts
Simpsons Wii game (yes, I re-wrapped it and gave it to him again. ha)
An Oakley wallet (he was soooooo excited!)
And a Simpsons Fooseball table!!!

Yay!!

We went out to breakfast at The Egg and I and then pretty much worked the rest of the day.
But the next day.... WE.....WENT.....SKYDIVING!!!! (indoor) :)

It was so much fun! It was seriously the most insane thing ever! We went with our friends Sean and Spring McDonald up in Denver. They have the movie and pictures and are making copies and sending them to us. So as soon as I get them I will post! It was a BLAST!!!

After that Tyler and I ran to Dave and Busters one last time to use up our remaining points and won a few cool prizes. Then we hurried back down to Colorado Springs to start packing, cleaning, and finishing up work.

Grandpa Jensen passed away almost two weeks ago. It was super hard to hear because he had been doing so well the last few months. But he fell down and cracked a rib and then developed pancreatitis which was very painful. His chances were slim, so after discussing things with family and doctors, everyone decided it would be best to just bring him home. They were able to switch up the medication so he was no longer in pain. We all said our goodbyes, unfortunately, I had to do it over the phone, but I was able to do it. He passed away later that night. His funeral was Friday of last week. I was supposed to fly out, but got really sick. I through up about 20 times and couldn't stand up without falling over or vomiting. So, I missed my flight. That was very hard. But I know everything happens for a reason. I love him and miss him so much, but he's back with Grandma now so that makes me happy.

Tyler and I drove back to Utah Saturday. I was still feeling super weak and my stomach killed, but we needed to get back. So I drove the Audi and followed Tyler in the Taurus back home.

It's good to be back but a little weird. I feel like I should be in school right now. We're actually leaing again on Thursday to California. We are going to be selling in the L.A. county fair! So that should be fun. We'll be there for a month working five days a week. Then after that, we'll be back in Utah again until we leave November to BRAZIL!! :D

Anyways, enough typing, I'll post some pictures. I know those are more fun. Again, I'll post more when I get them of skydiving!!! :D

Surprise!

Okay, way too much has gone on so I'm just posting a slideshow of all the pictures. This is our camping trip, fossil hunting adventures, and Tyler, Craig, and Naomi's surprise birthday party. And yes I made the cake all by myself!!! :D ha. Ty's birthday is not till the 25th but since craig is leaving and naomi's birthday is Wednesday Emily and I decided to do a big birthday party before any of them would expect it. We had yummy smoothies and cake and watched the movie Jaws!!! Tyler and I hadn't ever seen it before. It's pretty intense! ha, anyways, that's a quick overview. Here are the pictures. :)
