Sunday

Sunday evening we wanted to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather, so we went for a ride. We took our bike and longboard over to the Green Belt.

Cooking!

I made sugar cookies for the fist time in my life! I know but Im trying my hardest to cook... I only had black and white icing and Josh helped me decorate (notices the word poop... dont ask me). It was a fun Sunday activity.

Lava Hot Springs

We went to Lava Idaho with the Bowman family...Good times

shooting!!!!

Shooting stuff up on my parents hill...

My sister Rachael trying out her new Mag she got for chistmas

Josh and I shooting my dads AK47...



Me and my sister Angie hanging out, waiting for our turn to shoot again.

Home sweet home!

Yes... we live in a double wide... but I must say did we luck out... Its 3 bed, 2 full bath and we love it.
We were searching and searching for a place to live when we got back from Hawaii and couldn't find much of anything, well low and behold we found our sanctuary. My friend Bobbi had moved out of her home and wasn't going to be using it for a while, so she suggested we move in. We have a sweet deal on rent and the location is perfect.

So I painted the living room wall orange, Josh was a little nervous, but he trusted me and I must say it looks pretty great!... Except for the blue tape, don't pay attention to that.

Pendleton "Comes to Life"

My mom and her family grew up in Pendleton Oregon. We visit every year and enjoy Pendleton and its awesome attractions. Its known for the famous Pendleton Woolen Mills, the rodeo, and the underground tours. The underground tours take you through a city under the city that was built it the 1800s by the Chinese. Every year, once a year, in the underground tours, they put on a show called "Comes to Life". This is were they replace manikins for real people. So when the tours go through, the manikins come to life and as if it were that time period. Josh and I were able to go this year and play a part in the Shamrock Card Room, the saloon. Josh played the part of the bar tender and I was a cancan dancer. Josh had never been before so I was a little nervous of how he would react. I didn't know if he would be able to understand why I love Pendleton so much or even be able to understand my family... but he did good and he actually enjoyed himself quite a lot.

These are the Chinese jails. Josh and I went though the tour the day before Comes to Life


This was first comes, first serves

The meat market








Me and the sheriff Til Taylor

Back in Idaho

So we're back in Idaho. Believe it or not we really missed it. Our first day back Idaho greeted us with a beautiful snow storm and really cold winds. Gota love Idaho's weather. We live in my parents basement, free of charge, and enjoy home cooked meals my mom makes... We are hoping to be moving out sometime soon... Its been a good time hanging out with our families, although no one believes that Ive been in Hawaii for four months. They keep asking where my tan is... Anyway, I got a job at a spa and Josh is doing JB Windows (anyone need their windows cleaned?) and working at a bank on the side. Life has been good, we feel really blessed.

Last Days in Hawaii

We woke up at 7am, we knew this day would come quickly. We went to Hukilau beach for that last time, Josh tried hard not to cry...






When we were all finished packing there was no where to sit or relax. Our suit cases took up the hole bed... So Josh found the only spot open against the hard sinderblock wall and a suit case with his feet proped up on the nightstand... He took a nap

Beach Time

Josh wanted to be burried in the sand....He said it felt good... "cool and soothing" ...
