Twin Falls

Yes, we are finally in our little apartment here in Twin! We love it, it reminds me of our first apartment that we lived in when we first got married! I think that there is a neighborhood cat that runs out and about and he is really fat and he looks like Garfield. He likes to bring us his dead mice and leave them on our porch. Good kitty!!!

Here is our living room when you first walk in. It is kind of set up a little different so it is a little tight!!

The people that lived here before us had this monogram on the wall already. So since I don't have very many decorations up since its all in storage still, I thought I would leave it up and I put the letter "T" under it. Kinda random monogram but hey I like it!! Its right above our TV.

Here we got our spacious kitchen! Behind that door are the washer and dryer. The apartment came with the full size washer and dryer so that was a big plus! Then I don't have to keep on packing mine around with us.

Last here is our bedroom. It actually is a pretty good size and the closet is wonderful! It has built in shelf's so that we didn't need to bring our dresser!

I was going to take a picture of our bathroom but I couldn't get a good view. What held us back from moving in was that they had to replace the bath tub since there was a crack! I was pumped!! YEAH new tub, doesn't have a strangers germs on it!!!

Brent is enjoying his job and is getting the hang of things. He had a few meetings to go to last week in Utah so I went with him and I got to hang out with my friends and that was a blast!!:) Its nice to be in Twin so that Brent can be closer to his work and he is usually home by 5:30 in the evening. We are always having family stop and drop by which is great, we love visitors!!

One Great Journey...

We celebrated our 3rd year Anniversary yesterday! Its crazy to think of all the accomplishments that we have done since we have been married! Its been a great journey and can't wait for more years to come! I posted some pictures of our very special days!

Here is a good picture of my side of the family!

I just love this picture because we LOVED our cake. I think that was the best part of the reception. It was so different and so unique!
Brent was so kind and got me some pretty roses and we forgot that we still had our cake top in my mom's freezer. So I pulled it out. I couldn't believe how perfect it looked after 3 years being in the freezer. We forgot to get it on our 1st Anniversary. We had a great evening filled with yummy food and lots of games!

(We are in the process of moving to our new apt. They found a crack in the tub so they had to replace it! We are hoping to get all moved in this Saturday!!! Brent's job is going great. He is enjoying the people he works with and getting back into the groove of working again!)

Mexico

We had such a great time in Mexico. I have never been catered so great in my life! The resort was priceless!!! We arrived and they brought us a wet clean towel to cool down from the travels and the humidity! Our rooms were amazing!!!

The resort was beautiful! The sand was so pretty and pure white! It felt so good on our feet. When we would go to the beach, the waiter would come and cater us all day long and make sure that we didn't run low on our Strawberry Colada! Can we say that by the time that the trip ended, me and Brent had turned into Strawberries due to drinking them so much!!! The food there was excellent! There were like 5 or so restaurants to choose from every night and we tried them all and everything was so good!

The weather was perfect, a little overcast but yet still warm! We went snorkeling and Brent went golfing. But other than that, we were totally beach bums!! We would always go out and play in the waves too! That was fun. Its something about the waves that just mesmerizes you. There were some dogs that would always come and visit on the dot of 11:30 everyday for lunch time! We aren't sure where they came from, there were 2 banded resorts next to us so I'm sure they hung out there! People would always feed them too. They would run whenever they saw someone from the resorts. They reminded me of a dog that me and my brothers used to have out on the farm and his name was Poochie! Also at the swimming pool there were some iguanas that would like to bask in the sun and lay out on the rocks!

It was weird to think that it was Christmas time since it was 85 degrees out side. We went to breakfast one day and we saw that they made a ginger bread house! That was neat. They also had a really cool tall tree too. I didn't get a real good picture of it.

Here are a few random pictures that were taken of me and Brent!

Congrats to Brent for graduating school! I'm so proud of him and for all the hard work that he has put forth! This trip was good for both of us to kind of wind down. But I guess that the next step in life we have to grow up! Haha but we will still be kids at heart!

Here are some pictures of the resort and the day we left the sun was shining. So of course, I wear flip flops and shorts. When we land in Salt Lake, its snowing and we have to wait for our hotel to come get us and it takes like 30 mins. To say the list my toes pretty much fell off! Oh well, I brought it all on myself!! Haha

Also congrats to Sammy and Wes! We will have a new future brother in law! They got engaged over the trip. We are so excited for them and can't wait to help plan a wedding!!! Thanks mom and Steve for such a great time! This will be one Christmas that we will not forget!!

What have we been up to lately?! Well, a lot has been going on. First we will start with Thanksgiving. We had a great Thanksgiving. We were able to go home and spent time with Family. Unfortunately, I had to work the day after so me, Brent and Brent's mom Lee Ann all piled in the car at 4:30 am to take me back to work in Boise! They went out and did some Christmas shopping while I was at work and then they came by to check on me at 2 and my manager said that I could leave at 3!!! YAHOO!! That was the best news ever! We were able to drive back home to Burley and spend the rest of the weekend there!

As for Brent, he is graduating from BSU in a week! Can we say how EXCITED we are?! I'm so proud of him and how he has worked so hard on his school work. We decided that we needed to get away so my mom surprised us and is taking us on a vacation to.......

Yup, that is right Cancun, Mexico. In one week from TODAY we will be in Mexico drinking our pina colda!! Can't wait. We are going to hold a special ceremony on the beach for Brent's graduation!

As for the job, we are in the process of packing things up AGAIN...yes Brent just reminded me that this is move number 3 for the year! We found out that Brent is going to be in Twin Falls for about a year working on a project there for W.W. Clyde and then we will make our way down to Utah! We are so excited to be closer to our family and we will still get to see my brother and his family in Washington quite a few more times! Also, a new little nephew is on the way in January so I will be able to be there to meet him too!

Merry Christmas to all and hope everyone has a happy holiday! We will post some more pictures when we get back from our wonderful much needed vaca!!

One Year Older...

Yesterday marked my 24th birthday!! I would have to say that this has been the best birthday so far due to my wonderful husband making sure that the day was very special. I always joke around that not only do I have 1 special day, but it last for a WEEK! So I call it my BIRTHDAY WEEK!! It started out with my mom coming last weekend and we went shopping and out to dinner. I had to work, but the girls at work made it fun with decorating my station at the Bank and making triple chocolate cupcakes! My best friend took me to lunch at Costa and then my dad came into town and we went out to dinner! Then to top the night off, we had a knock on our door and it was our other best friends and she made me this really cute cake!!! She is so creative at what she does and it was SOOO good!!!!

Thank you friends and family for calling and making my day so special!!!

Halloween

Happy Halloween to all! We had a great Halloween! We carved pumpkins, hung out with our Family and made some wonderful cookies! We went down Harrison Blvd. on Saturday night and saw Thriller the movie and there were some wonderful dancers perform the Thriller dance. They did such a great job! Then we went down town and watched people and boy was that a GOOD place to do so! We dressed up as Boise State Fans....considering there was a Home game on Saturday!

Here are the good cookies that I decided to make with candy corn Hersey kisses!! YUM-O!!

Its OFFICIAL...

Brent got offered a job from W.W. Clyde (the company that he worked for over the summer in Utah)! We are so very thankful to have a job waiting for us while Brent is finishing school! Mean while, I'm working with Home Federal Bank! Its great to be back and I'm at a different location so its been great meeting new people!
