playing in the snow!




This is how much fun Legadu had with his uncle Tom, while we were gone away to California. I don't think he missed us too much.

Happy New Year!!

Well I hope everyone had a great New year and Christmas. I have not been able to blog in a few days but a lot has happened since the last time I was here. I will give you a re-cap of what Ben and I have been up to lately. We started off the holiday season by traveling down to California to visit Ben's parents for Christmas and to watch the Broncos play against the Horn Frogs, it was a great game but unfortunately we ended up losing. It was great to be able to visit with the in-laws for a few days. We flew home on Christmas day and we were lucky that we even made it back, a few days earlier there had been a few snow storms blow in and we thought we might not be able to fly into the Boise air port but it warmed up a bit and we were able to fly home for Christmas to be with my side of the family later that evening!! Ben and I got some really sweet gifts, my parents bought Ben a chop saw, he has been wanting one for a long time now I am thankful that my parents were able to get him it as they can be expensive. As for me my wonderful husband got me a kitchen aid I love it!! Now I will be able to make all kinds of things. For New Years eve we didn't do much of anything but we did eat out at Olive Garden and then we headed home and Ben was in Bed by 10:00, as for me I stayed up by myself and watched a movie and waited for the new year to begin and then went to bed. On New years day we tried to watch a movie at the dollar theater but we got there to late and the movie was all sold out than we tried to get a blizzard from Dairy Queen and they were closing for the night, so we thought we would try our luck at Maggie Moos and of course they were also closed. So we ended up going home and I made peanut butter milk shakes for the boys and I made my self an orange julius. And now it is back to
work!!

This was at the BSU, TCU game it looks like we are really far away from the field where as we were only like 50 rows from the front so it was hard to see the play develop and to see where the ball was. But it worked out okay. The weather wasn't that great either, you would think that if you are in California than it will be sunny and nice. NO it was cold probably like 50 degrees or less and you could see your breath out there and I was all wrapped up in a blanket!

First SNOW fall!!


Last night it started snowing and this is what we woke up to, a couple of inches of snow and is still snowing!! Time to get out the four wheeler and the sled and go for a ride in the snow! Although it has snowed once or twice this year this is the first that it has stuck. If only the snow could hold off until Christmas Day so we can have a white Christmas but highly doubtful. I don't remember the last white Christmas we had.

Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree...


Over the weekend we were able to put up our 12 foot artificial pre-lit Christmas Tree. Yes that's right 12 feet. It is a monster!! My mom was so kind to think of us when she heard that Marley (a Nurse from my mom's office) was wanting to give her tree away to a good home. Well it just so happens that we were needing a tree and we have just the ceiling for a 12 foot tree as you would have to have a tall ceiling to fit such a tree. We were thrilled when my mom was able to bring it by and to get it put up. With the help of Tom and Deidra (one of Tom's friends) we were able to get the huge thing up plugged in and decorated. It looks stunning!!

Poinsettia Bowl Bound


YEAH!! BSU gets to play in the Poinsettia Bowl. To bad its not a BCS bowl but it is still a bowl game other than the H bowl. Before it was decided that BSU was going to play TCU in sunny California, Ben and I decided that we would go ahead and book tickets to fly down to California to be there on the 23 of December just in case BSU was to play in the Poinsettia Bowl. We were not to worried about the whole thing because if they would not play in the Poinsettia Bowl, we would have still gone to California to visit Ben's parents for Christmas. It all worked out thought we get to see Ben's parents for Christmas and watch BSU play TCU in San Diego. We leave on the 20th of December and will fly back on Christmas day. We were so excited that everything worked out and we GET to watch BSU play.

NEW project

A few weeks ago we purchased some really big cinder blocks for landscaping. Not to mention we got them for a steal of a deal just a dollar a each, normally these big cinders would cost almost five bucks each so we made out like bandits. In our very small back yard we are re-building our retaining wall. It wasn't to bad before but we decided it needed a make over. In the near future we will be adding some kind of water feature. We are not done with the project just yet, we only have 1/2 of the wall built, but I really can't even say 1/2 because we still need to put the top cinders on to top it off so here we are right in the middle of the project but it will be done soon. Ben is such a hard worker at making our house look better and nicer. Ever since we have moved in here there have been lots of projects to work on, I wonder what will be next?? I guess we will have to see!! Have a nice day folks.


Lazy Dayz


When there is nothing much going on and you know it is just going to be a lazy day, this is where you will find me, hanging out on the bean bag with my buddy Legadu. He loves to cuddle with you. When Legadu was a puppy we could never really get him to cuddle with you, until Ben took him backpacking one year and it was supper cold Legadu cuddled up real close to Ben so he would stay warm and ever since that trip he loves to cuddle as much as he can. Were okay with that I guess.
