WOW what a winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Well we got pounded by snow again last night!!!! Schools were closed and my honey is stuck out at the "sight". School being closed is fine but my honey stuck at work is not!!!! Notice in the pictures I have posted with this the car. Notice that the snow is taller than our car. That is mostly where we have shoveled snow too, but it is getting so high you can hardly lift the snow up to it!!!! We are running out of places to shovel it too. The city finally came around and plowed the streets yesterday. It is about freaking time!!!!!!!!! Even my poor van was getting stuck in the street. We are thankful for the snow because we need the water, but to be honest I am getting sick of it!!!!! Our nice neighbor comes and snow blows us out ever now and then. I really am thankful for that. With my back it is hard for me to get out and shovel. If we get the snow we got last night with the wind we are supposed to get then school will be canceled tomorrow too. That wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. Well I hope you enjoy the pictures!!! It is CRAZY!!!!!!!!!

Our Trip to Phoenix



We just went to Phoenix. It was so nice to have some warm weather, see my family, and just relax for a weekend. Doug and I flew out of Salt Lake City on Friday, and then back on Sunday. It was a fast trip but well worth it. We went to see my sister that is going through Breast Cancer. She is healing up nicely and starts Chemo on Feb. 08. My brother and his wife (Jim and Judy) flew in from Sacramento for the weekend too. My dad is living down there for the winter so he was also there. It was a lot of fun. We got there Friday night and just hung out for awhile. Then we all went to dinner at a place called, "The Native New Yorker." It was fun. On Saturday we all went to my dad and Kris's trailer park and just sat around and visited all day. It was 72 degrees!!!! That was wonderful!!!! It was fun just shotting the breeze with everybody. Then on Sunday everybody gathered at my sisters house and we went to brunch at "5 and Dinner". Then went back to Terri's and visited until Doug and I had to leave. We left at 1pm. Our flight got out right on time and we got to SLC just fine. The flight had a lot of turbulence when we were landing!!! That was yucky, but all was well. I was glad to be on solid ground. Then the drive back to Idaho Falls began. It was supposed to be bad weather but it was fine other than some wind. We stopped at "Red Robbin" for dinner and then on our way. We got to Rigby to pick up the girls around 9:30pm and then came home finally. It was a short and fast weekend, but like I said earlier it was well worth it. I am so glad I got to see my sister and the rest of my family. It has been over a year since I have seen them. My sister looks great!!!!!! I know that she will have the courage and strength to get through the chemo.

Home Sweet Home

We are home and all is well. Right before we left for Phoenix our toilet started to leak. YIKES!! We didn't know what was wrong with it. So our wonderful neighbor came over and looked at it and said we could just turn off the water to it until we got home and then we could fix it when we got back. So we did that and Doug and I took today off and he came over and we got it all fixed. It was not a hard task at all. We are thankful for our neighbor!!!! He Rocks!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a million Tim!!

Our 3rd Anniversary!!!!


We have just had our 3rd Anniversary!!!! I can't believe Doug has put up with me this long!!! :) We both had to work so when we both finally got home we went out for dinner. We went to TGI Fridays!!! YUMMY!!!!!! We enjoyed that a lot!! It was good food. Then we went out and bought another Yoga mat. So now we have 2 and I don't have to give mine up every time we do Yoga. So we did some Yoga when we got home!!! It was GREAT!!!! It was a very nice evening and I look forward to several more years together. We were both talking and it seems like we have been together for so much longer. It seems like forever in a good way!!!! We are going to Phoenix in a week and a half and we will finish celebrating then!!!!!
