HELLO? Is anyone alive out there?

Yes, we are still here. This year has just been one of the most stressful years so far. And its only February. Well we have had an event full one thus far indeed. We spent Christmas up in Idaho, this was the first time in our whole married life that we weren't on a time schedule, the kids could play with their toys as long as they wanted, and we didn't have to worry about anyone but ourselves. And with the crazy storm we had on Christmas we were glad too. I think this will definitely be a tradition from now on.






We have been enjoying the snow this far. And by the first of this month I finally gave in to Joel begging for a new sled. And as most of you know Hunter also has to play with the big boys so.... he got a new sled also. Joel says that it was so we could all have our own and go together. WHATEVER!






In January we went on our annual ABC trip with our supply company. We went to the Caribbean, ABC chartered the whole cruise ship and there were people from all over the US there. We went to the Virgin Islands last year so it pretty much looked the same. We honestly didn't leave our room that much, well except to eat. It was very relaxing. I also got sick the week before we left and got Joel sick while we were there. And after 4 week of being sick after we came home I found out that I had pneumonia. Joel was really great since I couldn't do anything for 2wks. He made the meals, got the kids to and from school, handle things at the office, keeping up with the laundry and the house work. The kids called him Mr. Mom.

Our trip was basically Beaches, Beer(all inclusive; and if you were a drinker this was the place to be, and Bellies(Roofers & Beers pretty much a given)


In Grand Turk They had a Surf thing called Flow Rider. Yeah we want this instead of a pool. Way more fun and a work out.


We decided to take a city tour one day with some other Roofers from Ogden. We had allot of fun with them. And no the two guys in the middle are not gay. That was our first thought as well. :)


My dad has been talking about Hardware Ranch in Hyrum, UT. For the past 10 years, and last weekend we decided to see what it was all about. Well after the 2 hour drive and 20 minute sleigh ride in a circle out in a field we were back on the road again. Eh! I don't know if i would make the trip back out there again.

All the Elk come to this field in the winter for food and protection.

Well I guess that sums up what we have been up to for the past 4 months. And I'm good for the next 4, right? Hopefully not:) I do have plans on putting up my kitchen remodel and the changes we have made to the Idaho house now that it has been a year since moving in.
