Happy Anniversary.... To Us!

Last weekend we celebrated our third anniversary...... Crazy it has been 3 years. We went down to Bryce Canyon and stayed at the Stone Canyon Inn- I would definitely recommend it! We had our own cabin that had a BBQ and a hot tub- which was nice because the weather sucked!

This was the Main house/lodge in Tropic

This is the cabin we stayed in



Our deck with the hot tub.


We spent some time at Bryce Canyon, a place neither of us had really been to, and it was really fun (except the weather).





So Pretty down there. I took so many pictures







I love Anniversaries, I look forward to them almost as much as Christmas. I think everyone should celebrate anniversaries and go all out and celebrate somehow. I am already thinking about the next one, and the next one....
I love my husband Brett so much and want to thank him for a great 3 years!

Car Show

A few weeks ago we went to the Thanksgiving Point car show to see my brother Bryan's truck. He has an old Ford he restored and it is very cool. My nephew Tyson just got a new (well Old) truck to restore at some point.
We had never been to see his truck at a car show, and It was really fun. There were over 600 cars/trucks there, and his won for the best paint job for a truck- way cool.

Here are some pictures I took














Brett did my cousin Austin's cabinets recently, and I finally got a picture, they look really good.

Recent Stuff

Here are some pictures of our recent happenings. Since my blogging is getting so random and few and far between, I have to throw a little of everything in.


My work snapped this pic of me "on the job". Thought I would throw it in there to show everyone what my day consists of.
Brett's sister Stacie graduated last week with her Bachelor's in Accounting. So excited for her, she is going to finish her graduate school and get her CPA.

We live by the orchards and have really liked going for horse rides on the mountain. We love our new town we live in, and its so convenient to ride horses.



I promised some Mexico pictures from our trip in March.
This is the vew from my Aunt Jeanine's place, very awesome

Recently we had our "Family Pictures" done. I would do them all the time, but Brett says no. Here are a few.









And that's it for now!

Camping

A few weeks ago we did our annual camping trip to Green River (which happens to be the coolest place ever to go camping). We all had so much fun, and the best part is nobody got hurt! All the trailers and machines worked good also.
Fun, Fun, Fun
Since Mom and Fred didn't come, someone had to hand out the Cookie Dough. It was Maycee. If you know my mom, she ALWAYS has cookie dough on hand :)

Hannah and Lacy


Brent and Bryan, and Fred all got the new Rzr S's, and they were a lot of fun. We are now saving for a Rzr, but probably not the 'S'. Hopefully next time we go we'll have our own. :)

St George

Last weekend me, Lorrie, and Becky went to St. George to run a 10K race at Snow Canyon. Many of you know I have been training for a 1/2 marathon to run sometime this year (Im chicken and haven't put a date on it yet:)
My "training" for my 1/2 marathon has slowed down a little because I got burned out running on a treadmill with the weather and I started doing other things. I have also found out that running isn't my "thing" and is very hard for me. After the 10K I found a lot of blisters and my feet hurt the worst- I bought a pair of "nice" running shoes recently, they they aren't working for me.
It was fun to have a girls trip, even though it wasn't a long one.
There is nothing like eating Taco Bell at midnight at the hotel the night before the race!

This is us before the race

Ugggh, the crappy rollaway bed I slept on- I think my back still hurts. It's funny how the older you are the pickier you are with your sleeping accommodations.

A couple weeks ago my Grandma Fox passed away. Because of our Mexico trip we weren't able to make it to the funeral. I am happy for her because after 88 years I think she was ready for a reunion on the other side. Love you Grandma.

Mexico was AWESOME!!!!! My computer is getting so slow at posting pictures that I'm getting lazy at adding them. I will post some pics of Mexico soon.
Apparently while we were down there there was a lot of violence in the border towns and people were getting killed. ??? After we got back I heard all these warnings about traveling to Mexico but we had no problems!

February Things

February came and went very fast for us. We have been staying very busy and enjoying ourselves, as always.

At the first of Feb we went down and stayed at Brett's grandparents place in St George and we had a great time. It rained and rained the entire time. We did a lot of driving around and even went to Zion's (where it snowed on us). Our golf clubs we brought didn't get used at all.
Fire Danger? I think not

At Zions

Even though it was raining, we went on a fun hike in Zions. I must admit it was the perfect time to go there because we were about the only ones there.




At the end of our hike overlooking all of Zions



We stayed in St George and watched the Super Bowl. We love it down there and would someday love to live there.




Valentine's Day cookies are the best. Lacy and Macy are doing a great job making them
My wonderful husband got me some very nice roses.







UDA conference is in Feb. My office stayed in SLC for a few days to attend all the lectures, etc. It was fun to get to catch up with old friends- some I used to work with, school buddies, and current coworkers.
Brandy, Mandy, Tayor, Me, and Stef

My office at Lunch.





I am very excited to have Feb behind us, we are looking forward to Spring and all its fun activities. March will be very busy for us. I am going to Mexico, St George (for a 10 K race), barrel races and ropings, and then camping at the first of April.
We are doing very well and feel very fortunate in our lives and look forward to what this year will bring us.
