George's Day Off...

George is a very hard working man. He is the only source of income and he is really good at it! Wednesdays and Sundays are George's days off. This is the first time in our dating and married life, so almost 5 years, that he has had every Sunday off... its very nice. So on Wednesday we try to do fun things. Wednesday September 22. 2010 started out with cinnamon toast crunch for breakfast followed by video games. And while George played video games i did this...

And then he went down to try to fix my car (i can no longer roll my window down... its really really annoying when you have to get into the gate at our apartment complex.) no success. And then we went to lunch....
at Chick-fil-a... We like it there.

After lunch we (and by we i mean Stephanie) thought it would be fun to go the Mesa temple to just check out and see where it is and just enjoy the temple grounds. Considering it was a pretty nice day only 96ish, it wasn't to bad to walk around. The Mesa Temple is old! and Square.An old piece of wood turned into a rock... petrified. The trunks of the trees were painted white.... George thinks its to prevent bugs... but i think it looks stupid. There is also a cool cactus grove... I thought it might be fun to push George into it... he did not like that idea very much :)

After the temple we took the "scenic" way home and saw this cool horse...
And the cherry on top for George's day off... a Yankee game... yes people i said it. He was one happy boy.
here is to my hard working husband... i love him. The end.

our new place... the video tour.

Hey ya'll i was bored today... as i don't have a job and the house is pretty clean and i have already been the gym... i decided to do a video tour of our new apartment. ENJOY!



(and i finally uploaded George's graduation)

One Month

One month is AZ... top things i have learned.

1. The bugs are gross... yesterday i saw the biggest flying thing i have ever seen.
2. Unemployment leads to days laying in the sun at the pool in my new favorite thing.3. AC is one the greatest things ever invented.
4. A 6 hour drive home is way way better then a 14 hour one.
5. Don't drink the tap water... its gross.
6. Its impossible to get cold water from the tap (or at least i havent figured it out yet, im guessing its to hot.)
7. The shopping will be amazing when i get a job and can actually go shopping and enjoy it.
8. Our ward has 3 nursery's (CRAZY!)
9. We should have moved to the 3rd floor a long time ago.
10. I have really missed good Mexican food, i cant get enough of it.

We are loving it! Seriously need a job so once that happens we will really really love it here. Come visit (when it cools down)!

Rexburg to Gilbert

So we moved the day after George graduated. It was SLLLLOOOOWWW a trailer really slows things down... 65 mph! COME ON! It was the worst through the 80 mph test areas! Seriously NEVER want to do that again. hopefully the next time we move someone will pay for it other then us. Anyways here are some pictures to document the fun!We said goodbye to Gma and Gpa early Saturday morning... (look how cute grandma looks in that picture i just love her)
This is our lovely trailerRyan came up to Idaho to help us move and he drove my car to AZ he most likely had the least amount of fun on the drive down, he was all by him self and he was behind our trailer most of the time. Poor kid, but we were very grateful for his help.
George drove the whole time! because i was NOT going to drive. and he did great... he even smiled a little.
This was my view.... pretty boring!
That giant crack in the ground is the Grand Canyon... pretty cool.

The End we made it and so far it was has been pretty good.

BYU-I Spring 2010 Graduation

That's right folks George walked the walked and his name was called, he wore the cap and everything! It was a very proud wife moment. Here are the pictures to prove it.

5 Reasons

As we prepare to move away from Rexburg its kind of a better sweet thing, I'm really excited to leave and move with our lives but I cant help but to think of the things that I will miss.

#5- Campus. BYU-Idaho has been my home away from home for the last 5 years, yes i graduated and havent really been on campus very much in the last year, I know i will think of it often.#4- The Bubble.
#3-Island Park/ Yellowstone. Living about an hour from some of the most beautiful places in the world will be missed!#2- Rexburg Temple. Living within walking distance from temple it doesn't get any better then that.#1- Grandma and Grandpa. (and all of our other family members that live here) I have loved being so close to them, i feel like i will always be grateful for the friendship that i now have with my Grandparents, I will miss them terribly, But they give us a great reason to come back up to Rexburg when ever we want to. And I am grateful for that. (and i dont have one picture of them... i will have to remember that when we stay with them this weekend.)

heaven in a cup

The best part of Rexburg in the summer is a extra small Margareta flavored snow cone. I will miss this little piece of heaven when we move in 2 weeks!
and in case you missed it... that's right 2 weeks, 14 days! HOLY CRAP! I'm excited!
