Camping/sun valley

Do you love my socks and sandals?

Family reunion in Sun Valley = camping, cabins, hiking, biking, climbing,hotsprings,restaurants, art festivals, and more. We were there for one week and had a blast. We went to the hot springs on Thursday and brought our climbing gear and did some climbing with the family on the wall near the hot springs. On sun day morning when we were getting ready for church (here in West Jordan) Jordan asked me where the climbing gear was it was then that we realized we had left it by the rock wall we were climbing and it would be long gone. Luckily some family was still in Sun Valley, they went back and checked the spot and our stuff was still there.
I love when me trust and faith in people is restored.
We decided to drive up this crazy road and then realized turning around would be kind crazy... The situation got a bit hairy and prayers got us off that mountain
And the Flowers Jordan Picked for me.... He has been doing great with flower.. he got me 2 more bouquets for our anniversary this week.... He is the best husband in the world.... I love him, and yes I love flowers.




We camped near Burley ID on our way up... check out our awesome campsite.....

Then we went to a concert the day before our anniversary - Tesla, Scorpions, and Jackyl. It was a fun time. There is a certain type of people at those concerts and I will just say wow.... It was great.

And this is just a picture from the week before. Playing in some hot springs here in utah. I went camping and played here with some girlfriends and then Jordan met me up there to spend another day.






All in all keeping busy this summer

How to start at the begining????

Yes... Finally another post.... But what should I say.... The last time I posted was February and I didn't even say anything.

So here is an skewed glance at the past couple months. Sisters trip to DC and Richmond VA was incredible. I miss my sisters tons. But Heather posted this picture on her blog and now I am just wondering if it would be appropriate for me to blow it up and hang it over my bed. (Heather is living in VA, and Lauren is on a Mission - UKRAINE)

AZ with Jordan grandparents was awesome and then the sporadic 11 hour drive to Disneyland topped the trip off. We were sad to miss the evening parade but if we stayed, then I wouldn't be at work at 9 am. We made it home with time to shower, I may have smelled ok but I don't think I was a very good employee that day.

Jordan went to Honduras again for work but got sick and came home early. If you missed his facebook post. You were probably one of the lucky ones. He learn what happens when it is a "DOUBLE CANNING SESSION" and you only have one pot and your face is already in it puking.

While he was there I took a Kayaking class (once a week for 5 weeks) and loved it and now need someone to go play on the river with.

Camping, weddings, family reunions and more come with the summer.
Jordan is currently reunioning in Snowflake AZ and in 2 weeks we will do it again with another side of the family in Sun Valley ID.

Wish I had more time to post but then I would have to have more fun stuff to blog about.... Love ya'll

Fun in the Fall



Our lovely Jack O Lanterns



Saturday Night Midnight Hike
The first snow ride of the season.


I am just so happy I cant take it!!

Ryan and Laura after our first run.
Check out the freshies... snowmachine


Sleeping under the stars is great but the thought of getting up in the morning
is not always so pleasant.
Jordan is contemplating waking up. Plus I just told him we
need to now plan our Sunday School Lesson.

Good morning we slept under the stars and woke up to a
sheet of ice on us but we sure slept well.
Off for another ski run.
Jordan is cooking us Sunday morning breakfast.
Strawberry cream cheese stuffed French Toast w/ Sausage.


I Just Gotta say, "We sure love having adventures"

Staying YOung

For any of you that we didn't give the update to. We decided to stay young and irresponsible. WHy get a house, when you can save money and ski or snowmobile everytime you have a day off???

Really it was too hard to get the home insured and it would be tons of work and my job offered me a raise to stay. So all in all we weighed the options and Jordan is going to commute and we will stay in our little 1 bedroom apartment for now.

Offer Accepted

YIPPIE!!! We made an offer on a great little old house. There were offers put in so we were a bit nervous...

It is the cutest little old home. unfortunately the owner just had to go into a rest home (but I figure I will go visit her a we'll become best friends). The home is located in provo a few blocks south of Center Street.

It definately needs a big fix-r-up-er. But we are so excited to get dirty and get to work.

It was built in 1916 it is over 1200 Sq ft. it has 3 bedrooms 1 bathroom. The things I love are the porch the huge grassy yard, the apple and pear trees and it has tons of grape vines. We are really looking forward to all the fun of fixing up the inside to fit our style...

My dreams of when I was younger are coming true... I always wanted an old house with a porch... grape vines like the Melentines used to have... and a black toyota truck.... it is all happening.

I also have the coolest husband ever and he can do almost all the fix-it work himself... I sure am excited about life... I haven't been able to sleep the last couple nights because I have been thinkin about this house.

I never thought I would be so excited.
Jordan has been accepted as a transfer student to BYU Provo, which means we get to stay in Utah. This means we have to decide where to get our season passes. but we are thrilled!!!!! I am still looking for other job options so if any of you know of anything good keep me posted.

2nd Item of business_
I saw a good movie--- Gifted Hands, it was good wholesome and uplifting. Heather and Rich, I think you would enjoy it. Plus it is a Redbox movie, so even if you don't like it it is only $1
