Christmas!

So this year for Christmas we decided to go snowboarding instead of give each other gifts. It was a lot of fun, we went on Christmas Eve from when it opened at 9:00 till about 1:00 when we went to my parents house in Logan.








Steve got a way cool tie with bikes on it and a cool video mp3 player








My favorite present was a pea coat! I also got a cute necklace and a web cam! I am expecially excited about the web cam because i have wanted one for a while and now i can see my family all the time and talk to our nephew Carson!




So the big hits at my house were the fooseball table and the Wii. With the wii we got 2 games, Mariocart racing and American Idol. It was a lot of fun! Christmas day we just played with all of the new things and had family over for dinner.
Friday afternoon we left and went straight to Leatherby's to meet Shawn, Carson, Heidi, and Jaclyne to eat some ice cream. Then after we went to steves and opened presents. I got a cute jacket and a lid for cookie sheets, and steve got a new dress coat. The best present was the news we got from Heidi and Shawn that we are going to get a new little Neice or Nephew!
Then to ruin the whole week I had school on saturday.

We Are SoOoO Excited For Christmas!

HALLOWEEN

We were pretty excited for this years Halloween. Last year we lived in a crapy basement apartment with the entrance in the back, a place nobody would come for candy. But this year we lived in a nice neighborhood, on the main level of a house and we were ready to see some trick or treaters and hand out candy! Steve went to the store to get some candy for the trick or treaters. While he was there he was contemplating on getting cheap suckers but felt bad giving out stupid candy to the kids, so after much thought he ended up spending three times as much on some minnie candy bars, but he knew the kids would love it. We were all ready. We put the candy in a bowel and started waiting for the trick or treaters. While waiting we played some nintendo, I discovered that Steve is was way better than me at Mario Cart. He even beat me using Princess! Anyways, 3 hours later, a couple T.V. shows and steve cutting his hair only 2 trick or treaters came! Steve was pissed! He bought all that candy for nothing.

I was just happy that we had tons of candy to ourselves and quickly convinced Steve of that, he became happy.

Later we left and went to Leatherby's with Shawn, Heidi, Carson and Steve's parents. That was a lot of fun and helped to smooth over our night of NOT handing out any candy!

And that was our Halloween.

My new bike

So my new goal for next summer is that i am going to do a triathlon! Earlier this summer we ran in the Wasatch Back and so i know i can do the running part, so the next step was getting a bike, late last night we found a good deal and drove to provo and picked it up. Now that i have a bike there are only two things left... Spandex and learning how to swim! :) Since Steve has done triathlons before and is a good swimmer he has volunteered to be my swimming coach!

We Started Blogging!

So we decided to finally start a blog! yay!
Well this past weekend we went to Steves family reunion in Bear Lake. We went up on Thursday and hung out with my family before we left that afternoon. My brother brett got a new Kayak that he has been saving up for the whole summer, its pretty cool.
So we went to first dam and tried it out!
Bear Lake was fun except for all the wind. We rode bikes, played on the beach, went swimming, had picnics at the park, and had a FaMoUs Raspberry Shake! We were going to go through a way cool cave, After the 30 min. drive there we found out we would have had to wait for 2 hours for an hour and a half long tour.... YA RIGHT! Instead we took a few pictures and called it good and came home. We made it home in Bountiful at about 11:00, just in time to start planning our lesson for church the next day. -we dont have pictures yet but will post some soon!-
