COUCHES

Ok so I now totally feel like a married person. You could not believe how excited I was to finally get couches. It is weird how these things in life (like getting couches or china) excite you. But hey they do so I thought I would share my excitement. Ok so we are finally starting to hang things up in our little apartment and I know what you are thinking....yes it has taken me about 3 months to reach this point. But listen....all I have to say is that it is hard going to school full time and doing household things. Who would of thought? So this is just a whole new world to me.

Poor Little Gus Gus

Ok so little Gus Gus has had a really hard life this past couple of months. So in December Ben and I were in the mall parking lot in Idaho Falls about to park until this massive truck started backing up....we honked and tried to reverse but both did not work and his huge hitch receiver went right into little Gus Gus's front bumper. See picture below:


Then last week Ben was at Broulmins and when he came out little Gus Gus had been hit again. Honestly, what are the odds. Getting hit twice in about 3 months. Luckily this one was not bad and the guy left a note on our car telling us that he hit us. But still

Island Park

So me and Ben went snow-shoeing over the frozen lake. It was really fun.

This is the back of the cabin. It is seriously so pretty.

And then the front. Once again the amounts of snow is just amazing.

The sunset behind the cabin.

So we made a snow cave this weekend. I had no idea these things even existed. But i must say I was a little nervous when I was inside in fear that it would just cave in on me. Luckily it never did.

So this weekend me and Ben went up to his cabin in Island Park to relax and see his family. All I have to say is that I did not want to leave. It was so much fun.

SNOW DAYS

This is outside our apartment. The snow is so deep that is covers the first 4 steps.

This is the car next to us this morning in our apartment complex.

Look at this tower of snow outside this person's house in their front yard. This is just down the street from us.

One of the many huge piles of snow that we have in every parking lot imaginable.

Ok so I know it snows in Rexburg but seriously this year is the worst I have ever seen. Last night it snowed a foot alone. Little Gus Gus could not even get out of the parking spot this morning because the snow was so deep. Luckily a snow plower came into our apt complex this morning because if not we would have to push Gus Gus out everyday. The sad thing is that in the 10 day forecast there are 3 days that are partly sunny and the other 7 is snow. Then today there is a high wind advisory and if it does blow tonight we are going to have major drifts. Not excited for that. I hope you enjoy theses pictures I took them all this morning. It is crazy here right now. Last week it was so cold here one day in the middle of the afternoon is was at least -15. But during the night it was -22. School was canceled but of course BYU-I was not.
Well I hope you all enjoy these wonderful pictures that we took.

HONEYMOON

So yes I know I am just really bad at updating this blog but hey maybe now that I am married I will be better at it. Yes I know it is a long shot but maybe.

So me and Ben were married on December 29, 2007 at the Newport Beach Temple. It was the greatest day of our lives.

Then we were off to our honeymoon but I had no idea where we were going because Ben was in charge and he wanted to surprise me. All I knew is that is was warm and we were flying somewhere. Both very good things. Once we got to our hotel room the night of our wedding there was a present sitting on the table and I opened it and inside was a picture frame that had a picture of a palm tree and said HAWAII. I was seriously so excited and could not wait to get there.

So long story short we went to Hawaii for a week for our honeymoon and it was so much fun!!

Ben loves drinking coconuts and so one day we searched until we found a little fruit stand and they had them. So Ben went crazy and we had to get one. Now as for me liking them....ya....not do much.

This is at the dole plantation!!! We loved it so much there (well the food actually) that we went twice. My favorite was the chocolate covered pineapple while Ben's was the pineapple ice cream with crushed pineapple on top.

So while I was laying on the beach Ben was making animals in the sand.
