So its been so great that I've had so many teaching jobs! I have been working my tail off to studying to get my sub diploma and I GOT IT!!! Plus, on top of the play being tonight and tomorrow), things have been just go go go! I finally have a minute to update this! These events are in no order.... but here we go!
So... we went for our first ride of the season two Sundays ago. We get half way to Tooele (through the pass, and past rush valley, in the middle of no where) and as we are going about 100 the power turns off....completely.... so we slowly slow down and pull to the side of the road. We have THE best friends here. Especially all the ones who moved away... like our neighbors The Derrickson's.....Larry came to our rescue with jumper cables.....because we thought that would work, well it didn't. He then called our friend the Williams who had a trailer... thank goodness!!! We grabbed a battery then rushed back to the base (as fast as we could with a trailer and the bike on back) to meet brother Williams who was waiting for us. What an adventure!
For Spring break Dave and I had a blast! We went down to St. George hung out with the kids a bunch and took a hike to the Emerald Pools at Zion. Mum and Dad took us (the kids and us) on a picnic to Zion and then we all went and hiked to the first Emerald pool. Dave and I decided we would go all the way to the top and hike not just to the second, but we hiked to the third pool! I didn't think I could do it. There were a few times we had to stop and breathe but it ended up being super fun and beautiful! Here are some pictures. On our way back down a few deer crossed our path about 3 feet in front of us!
Us at the top....we were dying if you can't tell
This is at the top! It was gorgeous up there and HUGE cliffs hung above us!
Do you see the deer and how close it was...okay maybe not 3 feet but you get the idea...
We had an Easter Egg hunt, went to the park, I shot guns for the first time, Dave be took me to the waterfalls in Touquerville, before we left at the end of the week. The cousins came down and the kids had a blast! Then we left and went to do one of our favorite things to end such a perfect week! RSL soccer game!!! It was SO SO fun as always!
Ethan took this one of us...he did a pretty good job!
My cute kids!
Natalie was being sneaky...we didn't even know she took this one...
Mum and Dad's sheep had THE CUTEST BABIES!!!! That little black head one is precious! It licked my hand! And when they baaaa its so so cute!
It was so cute that the kids both wanted to help grandma in the kitchen! I had to take a picture! :-) Cookies
It took us forever to figure out where exactly they were but eventually we found them and they are so pretty! Pookey went for a little walk with Daddy across the top one. It was SOOOOOO cold!!!
My first time shooting!! And I did pretty good! I hit the paper plate a bunch and the tin can that was super far away! Woohoo! I wouldn't should the old gun though it was way too loud! My ears where still ringing the next day!
my handsome hubby!
Best friends forever....Where's Bryan?
Our favorite team! What a fun week!
(more to come in another update, I don't want you to get picture dizzy!)
