Diplomas, Sunburns, and crappy neighbors!

Wow, it has been a while since I last posted. Lots of things have happened since I last posted. I will try and go in chronological order.
First is on May 2nd, I got my associates degree from Salt Lake Community College. It was a good ceremony, but long. I was happy to walk and according to Jon the camera followed me all the way accross the stage so he could see how happy I was. Then after graduation Jon took me to eat at California Pizza Kitchen. I am now in love with that place. Most importantly I love the mexican soup they have, I can't remember what exactly it is called, but it is most delicious. Then we came home because we were going up to Park City that night for the weekend. Jon went to the store to get a few last minute things. After that up to Park City we went.
We got to the condo that we were renting for the weekend and it was beyond our beliefs! It was so big and so nice. As we unpacked the groceries we notice a few kitchen essentials were missing so we went to good old Wal-Mart to pick up a few things. Once we got home Jon started to make dinner. He made yummy bruschetta and french onion soup!! They were both absolutely delicious. Then we watched some of the NBA playoffs and the Jazz won!! It was great. After the game he gave me my graduation present, Guitar Hero!! :D By that time it was so late that we decided to for go the main course and just skip to dessert. We had cheesecake from the Cheescake Factory that I had bought earlier in the week. It was okay but not as good as I had expected it to be. After dessert we decided to take advantage of the hot tub and that was lots of fun as well.
The next day we had our friends Ryan and Heather and Chris and Ashten and their baby Liam come up for dinner and games. Jon once again the great cook that he is made a complete fondue dinner. All while we all played both Guitar Hero and Mario Kart. It was a perfect night. Ryan and Heather opted to go to bed early. Then Chris, Ashten, Jon and I decided to hit the hot tub. We stayed in for a few hours and just talked and laughed. It was an awesome night.
The next morning we woke up, cleaned the house and left. It was a great weekend. I think I have the sweetest most awesome husband for doing all that for me. I love you JON!!
Next on the title, the sunburns. This past weekend I decided to go see my best friend Ashley in California to celebrate her birthday with her since her family was going to be out of town. We did lots of fun stuff. We got pedicures, went to In-and-Out for burgers, got ice cream, went to the Santa Monica Pier, and I introduced Lush beauty products to her. If anybody is interested their stuff is so nice and all organic and eco-friendly. You can find it here at http://www.lush.com It's great stuff and I recommend the bath bomb and rock star soap. Also we had dinner and a friend of her's house and the family was so nice. I loved them, I hope I have a family and not to mention a house like that someday.
Then on Monday, Ashley's birthday it was finally warm so we decided to hit the hot tub in her backyard. I totally spaced on the sunscreen and we were out there for like 5 hours. Needlesss to say I am now beet red and totally sore. It sucks but hopefully I will have a killer tan when the burn goes away.
So I get home way late Monday/Tuesday morning and see that our trashcans are gone. I am baffled and ask Jon where they are. He says that somebody took them and they have been gone since Friday. We live in a townhouse and so are part of a home owner's association and the president, who lives directly accross from us thinks it is a nussiance for us to have our garbage can parked next to our garage, which by the way we aren't the only people that do this. He has had many choice words to say to us about this the past few months. I mean our garbage cans aren't bothering anybody except him apparently. Then the thing that makes me the maddest is that we lived here for 2 years, 2 YEARS!!! before he said anything to us about it. So as of now we have no place to put our garbage and the guy is going around bad mouthing us to our neighbors saying it was us being so beligerant about it that FORCED him to take away our garbage cans. Ok now I am fuming mad and he better not talk to me again! Also I pay my HOA dues which include our garbage so in protest I am not going to pay it again until I get my stupid garbage can back. I am so sick of being yelled at and told what to do. And all over a stupid garbage can! This is the dumbest thing ever!
So there you have it my diploma, sunburn and mean crappy neighbors.
