Thunderstorm....

The other day there was a thunderstorm and the thunder was so loud. I tried video tapping it. It would scare me everytime hence the shaking during the thunder.

Chris cooking on his new Bar-B-Que


Not our first choice on where to live but we do love our little place. We have some great views from our deck and it is right next to the freeway enterance.

The coolest person you will ever meet....

Her name is PAL!!!
She is the reason my wedding was perfect.
She is the reason I stayed sane for the last four years.
She is the reason I will miss Cali so bad.
She is an amazing example of hard honest work.
She is the best shopping buddy.
She is a leader, mentor, California mom and a friend!!
I had the greatest time with her for the last four years.
I could never thank her enough for everything she has done for me!!!

Thank you and miss you my Cooper!

First month of married life...

We both started our jobs!!! Here is Chris his first day...His office.

My desk!

Chris seems to like his job. He is doing a lot of the same thing he did in Cali. My job is good. A little getting used to since it is a lot more quiet but a good change. We are both just so thankful to have our positions. We also have the same hours working Monday - Friday 7-3:30 so we get to carpool almost every day. No weekends so we get to do a lot of fun things.

Here are some pictures....(i need to take more pictures)

Feeding the ducks in front of our apartment.

Deer Creek and a Bar B Que

Canoe fun

Yellowstone...we love yellowstone!!!
Down the river in Kayaks...



The tan line Chris came home with....

Next of course we went to the water fight on the 23rd in Cedar Fort

Balloon in the face..no bueno!

Chris went fishing at 5:30 in the morning at strawberry with my brothers. No pictures though...


We did get pictures of fishing at Tibblefork though...

Chris cooking his fish!!!

Hanging out with family in Wyoming!




It is so nice having weekends off to play. We are hoping to go back to Yellowstone and Wyoming soon. We would also like to go camping and to the Southern Utah area. Okay and down another river and maybe Jackson.


That is a quick summary of our first month married. We've had so much fun but are ready for life to get a little less busy.

Honeymoon and coming home...to Utah!

The first night we were married we stayed in Tahoe. After that we went up to Tahoe for three nights. After a busy few weeks I was so nice just to hang out.
Oh room in Tahoe...so nice!





We went Kayaking. So much fun. Tahoe really is pretty!





Then home to UTAH!!!
We got so lucky and my family moved our stuff into our apartment. With that of course came a trashed apartment. I took pictures after most of it was cleaned up. These pictures don't do it justice. However it was still so nice of them!
