Posts to Come

For all you faithful followers and passers-by alike, we will be getting our own computer next week. We will no longer need to make trips to the library or bum laptops from family & friends. Since we blogged last we have moved, set up our new apartment (I mean room), set up Britt's Art Classroom at Ashley Elementary, we visited Temple Square for the MOTAB performance and on a separate occasion to see the lights. I also started at the Enterprise location here in the Vernal Airport. It has been quite fun. Britt also graduated this last Saturday from USU. Since then she has been sewing me a stocking and backing our duvet cover that she started before her mission. We are happy that for the most part her morning sickness, that generally came in the afternoon/evening, has subsided. We have pictures for most of these events, we are just waiting for our new Dell to arrive. In the meantime we are so excited for Christmas to come. We bought our first Christmas tree which Britt decorated in White and Red, using some of the trimmings from our wedding last year.

Coming June 18th...

For those that can't make out the picture and for those of you who do not follow my sister's blog. Brittany is Pregnant! Her family found out a few weeks back as she was stricken with morning sickness the three days we went to visit. As for my parents we took this picture and sent it priority mail, with nothing else enclosed. You should have heard my mom's voicemail!

As for the baby, we know rather little as yesterday was our first doctor's appointmtent. We do know that we are estatic! How Blessed we are and how we can't wait for this summer!!!

Lubbock Christian, Here We Come...

We found out this morning that I was accepted at Lubbock Christian University to start my Master's in Divinty in order to become a Navy Chaplain. Britt & I are so excited that we have made a step in that direction. We will actually be moving to Vernal for a time, where I will start my master's program online and Britt will teach school. So it's more like Vernal, here we come.

Popper's Wall

Brit's Dad did quite a bit of consturction work back in the day. One of the last projects he did was this wall on the way to Flaming Gorge.

A Tomato Heart

Found this in our garden a few weeks back. We LOVE Tomatoes!!!

Bear 100

Well, to make a long story short, I did pace some one at the Bear 100. Rather than pacing my buddy Brian, I paced Davey Crocket. On my watch (clockwise from the top left) The Date, Calories Burned, Time Elapsed, and Distance.

Our First Harvest!!!

Well here is the first fruits (or rather vegatables) of our graden.

It's a Spider

 
Well to start of our road trip to VA, we got to Vernal at 2 AM. Upon arrival we heard some water leaking, come to find out there was a pipe that had leaked over two feet of water into the old cellar. There were spiders,a ton of water, all in a little space. Good thing I have a little plumber gene in me. Thanks Dad.

Birch Creek

 
The is the way down after going up Smithfield Dry.

Smithfield Dry Canyon

 
Went on a early morning run, just like most things, the picture doesn't do it justice.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

Went to a Double Header with fireworks along with Meesh and her folks. The games struggled, I thinke the #4 batter from the Bee's was sub .300.

Squaw Peak - Year of the Mud

Well different years have been known for different things, but this year certainly was muddy. Took me two hours longer than last to get over the finish, but it was fun. I love running in the mud!!!

The Overlook

The day before the Squaw Peak 50, Britt and I, went to the Squaw Peak Overlook to check out the view of Provo & Orem. Sure was a nice day.

Squaw Peak 50

This weekend is the Squaw Peak 50 which means Britt & I will be in Provo. It starts and finishes in Vivian Park, I will be coming across the finish line sometime between 3 - 5 PM. Kind of hard to pinpoint exactly when I will finish but you can check www.squawpeak50.com for live updates.

Homemade Ice Cream Cake

 
After fininding out how expensive an ice cream cake was, Britt decided to make me one!!! We had another couple over to celebrate my birthday and they could not get enough!!!

Little Sprouts

 

Here is the begining of Our Little Garden.

BFA SHOW

This is one of Britt's prints that will be in this year's Bachelor of Fine Art Show her in Logan this weekend. Any of you that want to come see more of her work, give us a call.

PS Don't be fooled by the pic, it is actually 26"X38".

Not Meant to Be...

Well as I said on Monday, I was planning on running 50 miles on Sat. Sadly, I was unable to finish the race. I dropped at 20+ miles due to some complications. None of them related to me being in the hospital on the Thursday before the race or the Sunday after!!! All is well now and I have my eyes set on my next 50 in June down in Provo.

If the Bowl Fits...

...wear it!!!

Our New Niece

The is our new niece, Ruby May. We went up to Burley the weekend after she was born.
