Miracles do happen

BRETT FINALLY WENT SNOWBOARDING WITH ME!!!!

Brett has been promising me since we first started dating that he would go skiing/snowboarding with me every winter, and he always finds a way to weasel out of going.

Lucky for him I just went ahead and planned the trip and told him there was no "out" this year!

AND WOULD YOU GUESS THAT HE ACTUALLY HAD A GREAT TIME?

Brett before we started thinking this must be the worst day of his life....

Me and Crystal (she joined us for her first time). I am very sad because Crystal is moving to Colorado soon :( Me and Crystal have been great friends for a long time and I will miss her so much.

Brett giving two thumbs up! We had so much fun and now he can't wait to go back-


Crystal needed help from my nephews getting strapped in her snowboard. I have only been snowboarding once before (last year with Shalice) and it was the first time for everyone else (except for my nephews who of course are really good and ditched us... lol)

Me, Brett, and Crystal

Becky and Jake

This is the year we are going to get a land line at our house. Brett gets so mad because talking on the phone at our house is nearly impossible. You literally have to find a spot and not move in order to talk to someone- which I must admit is a little nice...

At my Mom and Fred's for Dinner

Tyson and Brady- the great snowboarders

Bryan and little Reece- she is so dang cute.

Brett's dad Clay does awesome work with leather, horse hair, braiding, etc. and has been featured in several magazines, newspapers, etc.

We are lucky enough to start collecting some of his items- he is always working on cool stuff.

This is a stingray headstall. He also just gave us one with ostrich leg that is awesome!

Thanks Clay, we love you!

That's it for now, we are trying to survive the winter! Can't wait for our little weekend getaway to St. George, where hopefully it will be warmer!
