Our super dad and his special weekend!

We love our dad at home! He is just that cool!

Saturday upon his request, we took him out miniature golfing and had dinner at this fancy place called Sofritos. It was an Italian grill restaurant where their pasta was freshly made. Pretty yummy!

Hannah was a good sport and stayed in her stroller all 18 holes

Dad got some pretty neat things...a couple of ties, business slacks, nice shoes, and my favorite a device he can hook up his iPhone too and listen to his daily First Take shows while cleaning the kitchen after dinner!

I made the famous Cafe Rio Pork Salad and let me tell ya, it was delicious. It was super close to taste and deliciousness. Here's the blog if you ever want to venture: Cafe Rio Pork Salad. Warning: It takes about 5-6 hours to make everything, rice, beans, guacamole, tortilla strips, dressing, and pork But it is definitely worth it!

He picked this out Saturday at Costco...chocolate mousse cake!

We had a good celebration at home and honored our hero and favorite dad at home! He definitely deserved it!!

Our Story

Jacob and I met with the help of my uncle, David Martinez. My uncle was the bishop of a ward Jacob served in during his mission. He gave Jacob my cell phone number, or so Jacob thought, during a phone call Jacob had with him after his mission. I had already met Jacob during his last two weeks of his mission, Norma introduced us, because his last area was my home ward. Jacob and I started hanging out in Provo when Fall school semester started at the Y. And that's how it all started.

Jacob and I were married on June 2, 2007 in Dallas, Texas.

We lived in Provo, UT while both of us finished school on April 2010. Jacob majored in Sociology and I graduated in Chemistry.

We lived on the East Coast, Delaware to be exact, for almost 2.5 years! We enjoyed it. Made some amazing friends! I loved the warm, mild climate and all the green trees! I guess because it reminds me of good ole' Texas.

We recently moved to Frisco, Texas. And are loving the area!!

We have a 5 year old boy who's into action figures and loves music. He will start kindergarten this Fall 2013 and is learning to read. He is good at math. He has the most charitable heart and is the best big brother a sister could have.

Hannah "banana," like we call her, is 2! She is into action figures just as much as her brother. We are slowly introducing her to Disney princesses and is a Little Mermaid fan. She loves to mimic her brother and follow him everywhere. She is my drama queen and the one that tests my patience the most.

Rachel is such a mellow baby. She is coming up to 7 months. She is my big baby! She is starting to become more interactive and sits up on her own. She is sleeping through the night and slowly eating solids. Her routine consists of eating, sleeping, and exploring the world. As long as she's fed and diaper cleaned she is content.
