Holidays!!!

So, we had to give our dog back to the pound... we did not realize that she was deathly sick (till we took her to the vet). She could barely keep her own body up by the last day. We miss her... she was such a good dog with people!

This semester of school is almost up... I wish I would not have taken a class this semester (since I had my wedding and my sisters wedding!). Oh well... life goes on... I just hope I at least passed!

Our house is up for lease! And we are in the process of buying a new house that is a little bigger. It has one extra bedroom. We are crossing our fingers and saying our prayers... hoping that we get the offer on the new house.

Reid is not doing to well... he turned 29 and it about killed him. (just kidding, kinda) He has been dealing with this ear desiese for a while and he got another "attack" this past weekend. We had to leave church half way through sacrament meeting so that he could be in bed all day. We got his dad and a high priest leader to come over and give him another blessing. He can at least walk around without getting dizzy and is able to go to work and get work done. : )

Thanksgiving-

We are going up to Burley Idaho to have thanksgiving with my newley married younger sister and brother in law. Kansas is about double the driving time...so we will have to plan a trip to go there in the spring... EASTER??? On the other hand... my parents didnt want us to come until after Jan 1 2009. I think they are still trying to get over the shock that their two oldest daughters just got married within a couple weeks of each other. ; )

Christmas-

We are going to have Christmas in Arizona this year! Reid, Bill (Reid's dad), maybe Cole (Reid's brother) and I are all going rock climbing!!! I'm really excited to go rock climbing... Reid and I got to LA Fitness to work out. (to get ready for the exciting climb... and to get back in shape...) I am so sore from the gym... I guess thats what I get for not exercising in the past 2 years!!!

The day Reid lost a bet to Meagan....

Well... a few crazy things have happened in this past week.

I am now the (not so proud) owner of a full head of BROWN hair. Haha. Reid really wanted me to go back to my natural color, so to make him happy... I did it. (I will get pictures up soon)

We went to a NBA game last night... the HOUSTON ROCKETS vs PHOENIX SUNS... Houston is my team and Reid was cheering for the suns. Reid and I made a bet that if my team lost that I would have to become a suns fan (until the rockets beat them) and if my team won... he would have to wear a shirt to work that says something about him loosing. (PICTURE)

Reid and I have decided to save our pennys... move in with his parents for a couple months and buy another rental property. We figure... the market is amazing right now for 1st home buyers... why not take advantage of it. So we are meeting with the realistate broker tonight about finding one.

We got a new dog... the pound said she was 8-9 months old and we took her to the vet and they said she is more like 3-4 YEARS old and that she has tummy worms!!! So we took her back to the pound and we will be getting a new one soon (Can you believe they let you exchange your dog within 14 days of buying them if you dont like it, or if it gets sick!)

Reid and I are going to Rockey Point, Mexico this weekend!!! We are going to be there with Karl (Reids younger brother) and his wife Rachel, as well as Mark and Tiffany J. We will only be there from saturday till sunday... but we are pretty excited about it.

Is everyone getting ready for some turkey?!?!

Hope you enjoyed some pictures! These are not professionally done... I had my sister take pictures with my camera on my wedding day. I will be sure to put up the pictures when I get them from my photographers!

ENJOY!

NEW PUPPY!!!

We got a puppy last night!!!
Reid and I were having a hard time picking a name, cause she is a girl. (you dont realize how hard it is to pick a girl name, but not have it be a human name!)
Her name is * Coda * She is such a sweetheart. She is pretty timid right now, trying to adjust to the new environment. She is a labrador retriever/ queensland heeler mix. Coda is 9 months old! Her face is VERY much lab dominate and she is taller than Reid parents dog (which is a queensland heeler).

Her first adventure coming home was a stop at Reid's parents house. We wanted to see if the two dogs would get along... THEY DIDNT...haha. Kate (parents dog) attacked Coda.

Reids dad helped us pick out this dog, he went on his lunch break and checked her out (after he showed us to her on the internet). Bill was really hoping we would get her. I really wanted a labrador retrever and I think Reid's parents really wanted us to have a Queensland heeler... so we got the best of both worlds. Im just glad she favors more of a lab!!!



Elections:

I told Reid that if Obama won that the world would go crazy and hate us even more and start bombing each other (our alies ect) Low and behold... it was not even 24 hours later that Russa told us they hate us even more and Isrial is being bombed again. Surprise surprise...

All I have to say is... I TOLD YOU SO!!!

- Honeymoon - Halloween - 2008 -

I have added pictures to the post from Halloween and our honeymoon.

Honeymoon agenda (to go with the pictures)

Vegas, NV- what happens in vegas...stays in vegas.   : )   Just kidding. We saw the "O" Circus O' La show there and had a plast walking around the Balogio, watched the water show out front and at an amazing all you can eat place in the Balagio. (VERY FANCY!)

Moab, UT- we drove from vegas to moab and rented out a brand new condo for the night. Then we woke up early and went on a two hour Hummer tour up "HELLS REVENGE". It was a lot of fun! (to the right are pictures of Reid and I on top of mountains, during the tour!)

Denver, CO- We drove threw a really bad BLIZZARD WARNING on the way to Denver (the picture shows where it first started snowing) It was 19 degrees outside and I was going 10 miles a hour down a mountain with cars in ditches everywhere! Go little prius go...! We just tryed to stay warm the first night, we got some Chipotle and went to bed. The following day we went to a Hockey game!!! It was really fun to watch, Reid got us front row seat... we had a blast! We went back to our same hotel and Reid got us hot coco and we watched some tv and went to bed.

Salina, KS- We stayed in a little town near Salina, KS at a cute bed and breakfast. We felt really bad because we left from Colorado a little to late and didnt get into Kansas until late! The family was really sweet, they had two young children. The family restored a old farm home and rents out the rooms upstairs. VERY CUTE! In the morning they served us an amazing breakfast. 

Shawnee, KS- WE MADE IT!!! Reid and I got to Shawnee (where my parents and siblings live) at about 1pm Friday afternoon. We really enjoyed our time with the family there!
