IT IS ABOUT TIME!!!

I will go ahead and admit that I am the worst blogger, but I am sure that Cory would disagree. The problem is that I spend A LOT of time looking at other peoples blogs but never take the time to update my own. Well it has been two months since I have updated my blog and a lot has gone on.

We celebrate our first anniversary. We went to The Roof for a romantic dinner, then headed to the movie Dan in Real Life. Then Cory suprised me with a hotel at the Little America in the morning we went and ate brunch at the Grand America Hotel. It was an awesome first year of marriage.

We had Thanksgiving at Cory's parents house in Vernal. It was nice to be with the WHOLE family and hang out. We ate a lot of food and I made myself really sick. I also had a Thanksgiving feast with my kindergartners. They made indian hats, vests, necklaces, and place mats. It was really fun and the kids are getting way smart!!

This Christmas Break has been awesome. We both had two weeks off of work and got to spend a lot of time with each other. I was looking through our pictures that we took over the break and realized that we did not take one picture of us together! I might set up some fake pictures of us opening presents :) I gave Cory a Bears Jersey that he absolutely loves and Cory suprised me with a new video camera, that I love. I asked for one but was completely convinced that it wouldn't be happening this year.

For New Year's Eve we spent the night at the Little America Hotel with Cory's parents. We went out to dinner and then Cory and his dad went to the gas station to buy us drinks. Our new years resolution for 2007 was to not drink pop! WE DID IT!! I chose to break our resolution with the Wild Cherry Pepsi and Cory chose Code Red Mountain Dew (don't ask me why!).

All in all the holidays of 2007 were awesome. We are so blessed to have our families that we love with all our hearts, our jobs, and our education. Who knows what 2008 will bring!?!?! There are a few things that we do know. . . Cory will graduate from the U of U and do a summer internship somewhere, I will finish my first year of teaching, we will move to graduate school, and who knows maybe we will have a new addition!! That is not an announcement by the way;)

Well I know this was a boring post with no pictures but I will do better.

Ode to Twilight

Like many of the people in this world I love the Twilight Series and have read all of them. As you know, Twilight takes place in Forks, Seattle. While we were in Seattle we drove 400 miles to go see Forks. It was really fun and made the book come alive. I love the books and can't wait for the next one.

Sleepless in Seattle!!

When Cory and I got married we decided that we were going to save our change and have it be our travel fund. After about 10 months of saving we counted our change and had $940!!! Can you believe it?!?! So we went to Seattle for Fall Break. It was awesome and I loved spending every minute of every day with my sweet husband. I fall more and more in love with him with each passing day. He is AMAZING!! Anyway we had a ton of fun and can't wait until our travel fund grows again and we can go somewhere else.

Pumpkin Patch...aka Kid Heaven

I took my first field trip with my kindergarten students. It was crazy, but really really fun. They are the cutest and I love them so much. They got to go in a corn maze and found a thirty foot slide. They saw a fat pig named Leroy who weighed 1000lbs.!!!! And they got to pick out their very own pumpkin to take home. They absolutely loved it, but boy was I tired!!

Ridgeline Run!

Here are my students running their little hearts out at the Ridgeline Run, an annual fundraiser. After they ran they got popsicles!!

Meet School Bug!

So Cory and I were walking in to our house when Cory almost stepped on this disgusting bug!

We captured him in some tupperware and brought him in the house. I decided that my Kindergarten students would love him so I took him to school the next day. We learned that he is a Jerusalem Cricket and the students named him School Bug! Needless to say he died five days later. . . but he was a good class bet for a short time!!!

Labor Day and Keith Urban
