CaMpIng FuN!!!!!!!

So i have to hurry but i wanted to hurry and put up some pics of this past weekend of Dean and I. This was the first time camping since we have been married we went with Dean's old mish comp and his wife, matt and amanda. We had so much fun! we didn't go to far, we went up to Cub River, it was so beautiful and green! i just love summer time so much!!! i seriously could live somewhere where there is no winter and i would be so happy! anyway here are some pics, I wrecked once on my motorcylce but im so glad it isnt a big bike so i was ok just got a bruise.

The day before we went camping I got myself a new ride!!! I have been wanting a bike for so long and Dean was so good to let me get a pretty nice one. It is so cute and im excited to use it for school this fall when i will be having to drive to the hospital 3 days a week so hopefully we will save on gas money. This weekend was so fun and I just love spending time with my husband and my family. Im so blessed to be married for eternity with my best friend!!!

mom's suprise 50th bday party.....

So my sister's and I this week had fun planning my mom's suprise 50th bday party. it was way hard since my mom is in charge of everything and we were afraid she would find out somehow but we got her! The funny thing is, was that day my dad had 8 pounds of beef out and she saw it and called my sister saying,"dad has 8 pounds of beef thawing so i made a potatoe salad." we laughed over that. And thanks to my wonderful sister-in-law she made this great ice cream cake so I didnt have to worry about making one.

so here are a couple of pics of Dean and I on 'dawn patrol' (that's what hawaiians say when they go out super early to go surfing) but instead of surfing we went fishing and i caught my first fish in a while. I look like a little kid catching their first fish and squeezing it to death so that it won't flap away! Dean laughed when i caught it cuz he told me before we went that when you feel a bite yank back on the pole then reel it in, When i caught my fish i yanked and yanked and Dean said "well, reel it in!" it was so funny but i still caught it! Dean is a great teacher and we have so much fun together!

MinK CriCk

So we have finally moved into our 'summer' home. After some stress of unpacking and things like that we got settled in and absolutely love it up in the country of mink crick (haha no one says 'creek' if you are country). Things that Dean and I have been able to do here so far have been fishing, hiking, roasting marshmallows and riding his dirt bike. The enviornment in Mink Crick is exactly what Dean and I want when we raise a family. I was talking with Annie, my sister inlaw, when they came up to visit and we both have decided that having the mountains as your back yard is a great childhood memory that we hope we can give our kids someday. I hope someday after Dean and I are done with school we can settle in an area similar to Mink Crick or Badger Crick (where I had a summer job by the teton mtns). There is just something special about nature that I think sometimes I take it for granted. And I always think of the hymn, How Great Thou Art. Dean and I feel blessed to live where we do even if it is for a short time, we know that this is where we are meant to be.
Well to explain some of the other pics....the one with the lady playing native american flutes through her nose, I had to take a couple of kids in my class on a field trip and we couldn't stop laughing after I took this picture this lady was so serious and passionate about it. The pic with me chasing our new children:) Dean's mom bought a couple cows, so now we are taking care of them. And then there are a couple of pics of Dean and I playin on our co-ed softball team we are doing pretty good and I just love to see Dean get competitive and mad when he doesn't do something just right:) Well, I think I'm pretty much up to date.....until next time I get to a computer with internet:)

SpRiNg Fun & StAyInG BusY bUsY BuSy........

Spring is slowly but surely getting here!!!! Dean and I have been so excited after he gets home from work we eat dinner and then go out to the park that's across the street and we either throw a frisbee, softball, or a football anything to get us out. I decided to post some pics of us jumpin on the tramp at my moms house, Dean is just so talented with all his flips and turns, me I like to land on my back and bounce back up that is basically my talent on the tramp:)
So, Dean is finally done with his finals! yahoo!! and we are excited because he finished with some pretty good grades. now that he has a job, he works so long and now I'm working more hours for one of the sped teachers because she is recovering from surgery. I've just finished coaching fastpitch softball, it was way fun but very time consuming. I know I will miss all those fun girls. But we are thankful that we even have jobs especially now days, so we are not complaining we are just busy busy busy! We get so excited at the end of the day when we can be together and relax! This warmer weather makes things more bearable and now that we have another exciting adventure coming up next week-we are moving to Mink Creek, ID-we have fun things to look forward to: gardening, motorcycle riding, camping, fishing, and much more!
Until next time:)
