I'm a little bit of a slacker! Haha I haven't wrote on here since we were in North Dakota!
So starting from there, I decided the truckers life was definitely not for me. So I returned to Blackfoot and held up the fort there ;)
On December 15th 2011 I got the best Christmas present ever!! Mighty Thor Maximus :) my 8 week old Newfoundland puppy! I wish I had a picture on here to post of him when I first got him I don't so maybe one we can have a picture day haha. He was the biggest ball of fluff I had ever seen in my life!looked like a black grizzly bear cub. He has the funniest personality and I love him soooo much! He's my first child and my forever giant baby bear :) as of right now he's over 150 lbs and 10 months old... Big baby!
Christmas was fun! We spent new years with my family at my grandmas house and played Bingo, and tripolay! I'm sure I spelt that wrong. Early Christmas morning we went to Logan's parents and opened presents and then later went to mine to do the same. Lots of fun and I got some new riding gear!! We also got to go to the temple and celebrate the sealing of Megan and Rob! Can't wait for our turn!!
We went on the annual Mesquite riding trip just a couple days after Christmas, it was a blast and I got to put my new riding gear to use!! :)
New years day is where it's at. We have a tradition where we eat our first breakfast of the year at my grandmas and she makes these things called avelsceevers?? Spelt that wrong too lol. Anyways their basically little pancake balls but so much better and she makes this homemade caramel syrup for them that is seriously to die for!! And of course with some other breakfast foods.
Well I can't really remember what happened between new years and when we found out we were expecting!!! I believe that was in June, and my first big clue was, I told off my boss and walked out hahaha usually it takes quite a bit to push me to that point but I guess I was just rubbed the wrong way that day haha. So after my suspicions and of course a late period, which had been off sincefebruary anyways due to a medication, I decided to take a test and it was just one of those 88 cent ones so when I saw that 2nd line of course I couldn't believe it and drove to Walmart to get more tests and the expensive ones! Sure enough they were all positive! Logan was still in north Dakota and if you know me you will know I have very little patience so I called him up right away and shouted the news in the phone like an announcer at the Kentucky derby. We were both so excited. And for those of you wondering, we weren't trying but we weren't exactly trying not to either haha. All I can say is, don't fast about a baby if you don't plan on getting pregnant right after haha. Our first ultrasound was July 12th and it took forever to get here! Hearing the heartbeat was so surreal but I, glad I got to hear it before we had the ultrasound so I knew there was actually a baby in there lol. The first time seeing our little one was amazing and it moved around so much! I couldn't believe I wasn't able to feel it yet! Then again I was only 11 weeks haha. I still stare at those u,trasound pictures everyday in astonishment :) We had our last dr appt on the 9th of August and all they did was find the heart beat which took quite awhile and spooked us both! But baby was fine :) as for me, I got quite the lecture from the dr. I guess I had lost weight since the first time going in and my dr was very upset by it. She thought I wasn't eating or keeping food down but I was. And trust me I eat more then my husband right now haha. So hopefully I've gained something since then so I won't have to hear it. Our next appt is this Thursday! The 30th! And yes we find out what were having!! Yay!! Unfortunately, Logan won't be here for it because of having to work in north dakota but I haves good team that will be joining me :) we plan on filming it so we can send the video to Logan and he feel like he was there :) I'm so excited to finally know so we can start referring to the baby by a name! And plan the nursery and buy clothes! :) I'll keep you guys updated when we find out! Oh And did I mention we live in Logan Utah now?? Logan is going to school in January and we wanted a head start on housing. Luckily we found the most perfect house and neighborhood, so we're really happy and loving this new adventure!! :)

a taste of north dakota ...
I love mountains!! there isnt a single one in sight. just rolling hills. its kinda plain jane here, it looks like a naked tumble weed. some how there is a lot of wild life here, their mostly dead on the side of the rode when we see them but where the heck do they live?? they must be migrating or something. Its Freezing here. the locals say it get to be around -50 every winter. {yay}. we experienced the first snow of the year just the other night, it was a blizzard and there were cars and semi trucks flipped over and off the road.
If anyone needs a job this is the place to be, Everyone is hiring! dairy queen had to close for the season due to not having enough staff and taco johns pays a whopping $15 and hour! the only problem is there is no where to live people live in their trucks and campers in the wal mart parking lot which never has anything on the shelves, so its really like one big camping party here. its not as bad as i make it seem though, they do have an applebees!!
kinda sad i havent blogged about anything interesting...
well, we got back to north dakota last wednesday? like 3am {takes 11 hrs to get here} after a very much needed break. We got to spend two weeks back home in blackfoot, it was heaven! we now have a greater appreciation for our town, house, and having friends and family so close by. While we were home we got to do a lot of shopping! i seriously have zero winter clothes. We got to go to logans 2nd cousinds baby blessing and that was cute. We also went to salt lake to visit our besties Logan {rice} and Reagan! we love them :) they took us to this resaurant call ticanos? tucanos? anyways its in the gateway mall, it is by far my most favorite place to eat right now, i feel like a carnivor after eating there. the prices are a little high like 25 bucks a person but its soooo worth it. well we spent the night there and had a blast then we came home cuz we were leaving saturday morning, but after we got home we got a call that said we didnt need to be back till tuesday! woo! another thing we did we went to logans brothers {Caleb} football game! they dominate!! oh my i wish we could see the rest of his games! well on our way home from the game we got a call from rice and raegan!! they are on their way to see us! wow their awesome. we had a lot of fun with them. we also we on a four wheeler ride with my brother jase and his woman alauna {la la} which btw she is such a sweet girl! we stinkin love her to death and were so happy jase is with her we look forward to many more fun times with them two ;) AnyWays!! we went on a fourwheeler ride with them to the big butte {Be-Ute} and that was a little chilly but great view :) we went to dinner and to pa3 and we snuck our cold stone ice creams in our purses! that was skillful. Something else we did, we went night fishing! pretty much an awesome hobby i'll tell you what. We first went with logans cousin jarom and his brother caleb and the second time we went with jase and la la, we go out at like 9 or 10 at night and set up our 6 or so fishing poles, make a fire, eat some snacks, and wait. its a blast! it was la la's first time ever fishing and after like 5 minutes of her pole being in the water she got a bite! it wriggled off before she got it on the dock but still, she a natural for sure. Oh and one other purchase logan made while we were home was new tires wheels and a lift with of course fox suspension!!! ya its gonna be beast. pics to come...

Just gettin started!
well, I was convinced (by logan actually) to start a blog! with a little inspiration from Kylie :) I kinda always had this thought that you had to either be pregnant or have kids to have a blog, but i guess not! lol. My blog probably wont be as exciting of course as someones who has kids to show off, but at least i will have a start on this till then! :)
First of all, Im married to Theee most AmAzInG guy Ever! He is my life. We were married August 19th, 2011. We went on a cruise to Mexico and it was a Blast! I highly recommend a cruise to anyone who wants fun and relaxation. It was also really nice to not have to worry about finding fun things to do and transportation and all that junk, the cruise just kinda does it all for you! not to mention the free food ;)
We got ourselves a cute little apartment in blackfoot, and just as i was finally starting to get it feeling cozy... we move... to North Dakota! its ok though, its great money ;) we still have our apartment in blackfoot, for when we go home for the week every three weeks, so I guess it wasnt really all that much of a lost cause :)
Yesterday we went to Canada! we had the day off and thought it would be fun to travel outside of the country... ya that was a very short lived bliss! almost got arrested for the pepperspray in my purse that I forgot I had! not to mention the illegal fireworks and butterfly knife our cousin Carson had hiding in his truck! After all of this mess, we drove around and looked at basically a boring town, we stopped at the Peterbuilt store and each bought a hat (thanks carson!) and then had some pizza and went back to America (Yay!).
