Jordan's in his late twenties! OMG!

Jordan is 27!
We always have a great time hanging out with family and I thought that this picture represents hanging with the Basua's well, and birthdays are never an exception. Jordan and I love it, if you couldn't tell!


I couldn't decide which picture was more funny, I love all the kids expressions!

Marie was playing dress-up with the kids and looked so good! It was a really special treat!
Melissa did a great job hosting Jordan's Sunday birthday dinner with chicken parmesan, and made a delicious peanut butter and chocolate cake!

I think Jordan was still singing "happy birthday" to himself when all the kids blew the candles! So cute!
Wednesday the 16th was his actually b-day. We usually go out to eat with everyone and have a great time! This year Jordan was really lucky that his sister Marci decided to have her baby shower the weekend before his birthday, because their mom came out to surprise Marci at the baby shower and has been visiting all week! It was truly special to have Momma Beck here for all the festivities!

For Wednesday, Jordan decided to try out a new restaurant. We LOVE the food network show "diners, drive-ins, and dives" with Guy Fieri as the host. There is a mexican restaurant in Salt Lake City that was featured on the show called, Red Iguana.
We took the Basua bus up to salt lake



Unfortunately we didn't plan for a big wait on a Wednesday night, but we ended up waited about one hour for this moment. Who knew for a Wednesday night?
One of the featured items made on the show was there famous tacos, one specifically was the tacos "don Ramon," of course that is what I ordered and many others at the table! SOoOOo GOOD!


I forgot to take a before picture, I was so hungry.
Jordan took a dare and eat a whole jalapeno!

All he had were tortillas after, and I'm sure I saw some tears!



I think Jordan and I were a little star struck, even though it was a restaurant...not a person.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABE!! I hope you felt loved and specially! XOXO
So far we have been to two of his featured restaurants; red iguana, and hodads (in san diego).
I'm making a list and checking them off!

8th Photo Game

I thought it was such a fun idea that
I saw on Marci's blog, who saw it on her
best friend, Leia's, blog.
Rules:
1) Go to Photo files and select the 8th folder
2) Select the 8th photo in that folder
3) Post the picture along with the story behind it
This is mine;
This is from this past Christmas.
There are six of us female cousins and sisters who hang out and are close. One of my cousins, Amy, is currently living in Prague, Czech Republic working and exploring! this Christmas we all felt the absence of her wonderful personality. Christmas evening my parents were showing a slide show of there trip to Europe that thanksgiving before. this picture of Amy appeared, and we all shouted and laughed because if anyone knows Amy, they know her fabulous faces!
We were trying to take a picture with us making an
illusion of Amy being right there in the photo with us!
Amy we miss you and love you! XOXO

Graduation!

The first thing we did when my parents got to town was go to see my art show. They loved it! Mom even said that she wants to hang one in her house, which if you know mom doesn't have one ounce of color on her walls, so I was pleasantly surprised!

Even though the snow felt like it could ruin the day, it was too beautiful to not capture. My mom and sister got a kick out of it.
I thought that it was funny that as the most colorful department of the school we got brown as the Art major.


Close friends that I have had a lot of classes with through out my last couple years.
These are my three fine art teachers. Tawni (left), Catherine, and Marcus (right).


My two favorite guys!


This picture is dedicated to my cousin Amy!

Our mascot is the wolverine




My parents surprised Jordan and I with a new BBQ for my graduation. I have wanted one for the summer and my dad is a big time BBQ man and wanted to treat me to the best of the best!
After grad, we had more friends and family gather together at my house for dinner and cake. It was also Jason's (jordan's older brother) 30th bday and we sang to him too, Happy Birthday Jason!



My mom loved hanging out with the Basua kids, i think she is secretly ready for grand kids and won't admit it!

MORE TO COME.....
