Our Big Adventure

So....a lot has changed for Kevin and I since our last post two years ago. I decided it was time to dust off this little old blog to document our new little family's adventure and life here in Sacramento!

Kevin got a job as a Business Manager with Apple in downtown Sacramento and we moved the middle of October. Did I mention we also bought our first house?! It has been a crazy few months for our little family, and I think its safe to say we are officially adults now. haha It is still hard to believe we are actually living here in California and that it hasn't just been an extended vacation. We are really loving our house and are trying (mostly me) to get used to the area we live in as well as trying to adjust being away from our family and friends and our lifestyle we grew so accustomed to in Utah.

all the little 5 year old's were better than me.

So we started out the year right, and on January 1st, 2013 My brother Inlaw and Kev took me Snowboarding! 

FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER.

But seriously. 

Snowboarding is freakin hard! Who knew? Shawn White makes it look sooo easy.

So even though I spent the majority of the day on my Bum and have never hurt or been so tired in my life. It was a fun day. Props to Kev and Robe, (even though Robert almost killed me and took us up the wrong lift at the end of the day so I had to come down the mountain on a hard run, when I had only ever done the bunny hill) I slowed them down a lot and they had to be super patient with me, cause lets face it. I was awful. 

But I am very glad I can now check Snowboarding off of my bucket list, and here's to hoping it won't be the last time!

our newest edition. goldendoodle style.

So....Kev and I had a pretty spontaneous purchase last Monday. And it was the best purchase we have ever made. 

We bought a puppy!!!!

We named her Ellie. 

And she is the most precious, happy, fun puppy in the world. I seriously already love her so much. 

I will post more photo's later. Probably so many you will be completely annoyed with me. But until then enjoy looking at her cute sleeping face.

Don't you just want to cuddle with that soft squishy face?!

 I do.

our lovely spring break.

We didn't do much but boy how we have loved it. 

We spent our week traveling to and from our two different lives. 

Salt Lake and Logan.

We had such a lovely time hanging out with our friends and family in Salt Lake. 

It just went to fast.

And now we are back in our little town of Logan.

Here are few pictures of what we did while we were in our hometown of SLC.

I also got to try sushi for the first time....and I don't know how much more of it I will be eating. 

(i'd rather have a burger and fries)

Kev and Scott made it to an all time high level in Battle Tanks on the Wii.

(only took them til 3 in the morning)

We also explored downtown and took pictures with Kev's Iphone and my Holga.

(holga pictures to come soon)

Now back to being responsible students.

color festival.

These photo's are about a year late. 

I was just looking through my pictures on my computer and saw them...and realized I never blogged about this little extravaganza we went on to Hare Krishna.

So I thought I'd put them up cause I love them, and think they are fun.

We had a grand old time. Five of us squished in a four person car for over 2 1/2 hours. And left with plenty of chalk in our teeth to last a life time. It was a fun adventure that will hopefully happen again this year!

Well Folks....

I finally did it. 

I finally made it to the State Fair. It has really been a dream of mine since I was little. I think it came from watching Charlottes Web so much with the twins.

Last Saturday Kev and I drove down to SLC to attend this blessed event that only comes once a year.

And ok....it wasn't as good as I had dreamed it up to be in my mind all these years. But, never the less it was still fun. We walked around to all the fun and weird booths, got a lot of good people watching in, saw some seals dance, spent 6 freakin bucks on a disgusting hot dog, ate funnel cake, and got to pet some goats, sheep, and cows. 

It was a great night.

                      Kevin eating his delicious pizza and me with the worst hot dog i have ever eaten half of in my life. For real it looked like a dead man's skin. NASTY nast. 

 Okay. 

So this cow was seriously humungo. This picture does not even capture how big this thing was. Huge.

until next year state fair...

back to school

We are moving in 

2 DAYS!!!

We are so excited to move back to Logan, for school, friends and fall.

(we are leaving out the winter part, cause after the first month it kind of gets old and cold)

We are growing up and living on our very own!

Crazy fun adventures await us, I can feel it!

the summer internship experience. story 1.

So.....I haven't written about my internship very much...ok at all.

And it has been a pretty freakin awesome experience so far. I have been learning a lot, I work with some pretty awesome and fun people, and its down town so the atmosphere is fun and I'm learning how to get around in that craziness of a city better.

Come to find out, Busath is a pretty famous name in the state of Utah and they have taken pictures of some pretty amazing and famous people....if the name Thomas S. Monson rings a bell then you know what i'm talking about.

But, to get to my story. The other day I was assisting Drake the head photographer. When I was going into work I knew we were doing a location shot...but wasn't sure what it was. I got to work and found out we were taking pictures of a lady named Gail Miller....and dummy me thought oh ok pictures of some lady.

Everyone. this was not just some lady. This was Gail Miller....as in formerly married to Larry H. Miller, owner of the Jazz and one of the most recognized names in Utah.

And here is the real kicker. We were going to her house!

Yes ladies and Gents. I got to go take pictures in Larry H. Millers Castle, I mean home. I also got to hold and pet his cat named Henry. He was the funniest most friendly cat I have ever seen.

It was a pretty dang cool experience. I have kinda liked this internship just a little. I just wish they paid me.

Silent Dance Par-tay.

So I pretty much go to the coolest school ever.
There are tons of traditions that go throughout the year, and this one just started this year.
During finals week both semesters, there was a silent impromptu dance party.
In order to be a part of it.
You need: An ipod, sweet moves, and no dignity.

It was so fun, and people looked at us like we were crazy. and the best part of it was....we didn't care.
I love Utah State.

Party In the USA.

This post took me far too long to post. I will hopefully be catching up with all the events of the last 2 months soon!
