Well. what to say.

So what do you right about when your routine is the same thing day in and day out, week after week? it's kind of hard to think about really. like i know i can be creative when i want to be, or when i'm super tired, but what about the other times when those don't apply. Like when i'm just not feeling it. what do i do. well i cook. or distract my creative self with a good book. thing around here are going good. the topic lately on our minds is when to start giving mom and dad grand kids. when would be the best time to start and the fears that come with talking about this stuff. heaven knows i would love to have a kid, but i still have school to think about. and with my job alone i wouldn't be able to support my family. so we're taking our time and being selfish. sorry nana and papa. maybe sooner than later but still not yet. she is content with the kittys for now. as for me i start my classes next monday, and hopefully things will continue to work out just as good for us. alls well on the for front. love to everyone.

The Countdown

About 3 years ago, I took out a loan to pay for my truck. With the help from my brother Brett i was able to do this and start earning credit. Now almost 3 years later, that loan is almost paid off. I guess i just really want to express gratitude for a chance to prove myself a person of my word and for others having the faith to take a chance on me. i appriciate it. In other things life is going good. I'm enjoying being married to a wonderful young lady. who continues to put a smile on my face even during dark bleek days. It's great to feel loved and needed. It's hard sometimes to find things to write about, but i guess if you think hard enough you can find something

Over due and Over weight?

Well it's been a while since i've written, mainly cause i figure i never have anything exciting or interesting to write about. Which is partly true i guess. We've started to do some spring cleaning around the property,chopping down dead trees and such. we've aquired quite a big pile of chopped down trees. so if anyones up for a bon fire and some smores? maybe roast some weinies (is that how you spell it, wheres kassie when ya need her for grammatics) our washing machine went capute the other day and we've found out that it would be cheeper to buy a new one than pay a repairman to fix our old one. go figure. you think they would want to stay in business or something. I keep getting told i'm getting fat. specially since i got weighed on Karen's WII fitt and it made me look like a beachball. which isn't really true. but after reading Cam and Kassies post i decided that i'm gonna do something about it. especially since i have the means to kick some fat. I've started finally doing my p90x workout. so i'm on my way to being ripped. i don't know if i can beat cam's 190 lbs. considering i graduated at 185. but i think i can get healthy and back into shape. we'll see if i stick with it at the end of 3 months.

Hunting with Dave

Well i took this last friday off work and drove two hours to visit with dave Schwenderman or how ever it's spelt. along with his son Adam. We got up early on friday morning and drove somewhere in the country and started walking through the brush. we met back at the truck. well three of the four of us did we had brought a fishing friend of daves with us. i guess he shot at something and missed and then dave as we know him. especially dad. tried his luck at a long pop shot at a buck running away. so we walked through the brush to see if it was wounded which it wasn't. when we got back to dave's house there were a bunch of Turkeys in his Deer feeder so he gave me a shotgun and i killed two with one shot. that evening it started too snow. Dave headed up the hill above the house and adam and i went down the hill below.We sat in the snow for about an hour and forty minutes. adam was about 30 yards behind me and two my right. so basically we covered a 360 degree arc with the exception of the 30 yrds between the two of us. i just happened to look behind me as a tail of a white tail deer walked behind a rock pile 20 yards directly behind me. So i swivelled to on knee from a sitting position and waited for a head to appear from the other side of the rock pile. i'm pretty sure he heard me move cause it took him a good 10 seconds to move 3 feet. and then his head peaked over the rock pile exposing about 4 inches all the way down his back. i saw that he was indeed a buck so i laid the cross hairs right behind his withers if he was a horse and squeezed the trigger. clean shot and he dropped where he stood. i felt pretty proud of that shot. but we went and got the 4 wheelers and picked him up. took him to the hill where we gutted him. then took him to daves nice heated shop and skinned him down. after a day of hanging he was made into some good old steaks roast hamburger and jerky. and i don't care what dad says about deer. this one tastes really good. maybe it's cause dave feeds them tons of corn and apples? but ya. it was a really fun trip. and i enjoyed spending time with dave.

Con Cuidado

So i should have had the job this week. but one of the area administrators told my boss that though i could be the perfect person for the job, she would like him to interview at least three more people. lol he didn't like this. he said why prolong the inevitable. so we're waiting another week just to please the lady. my jobs pretty easy. and i'm thinking about trying to find a morning job. elaina isn't so keen on it cause she says thats less time she would have to spend with me. which i think is pretty sweet. but still for progress sake. we're planning on making a trip to utah in a couple weeks to pick up all our posessions. it should be nice to see some family. so i can't wait to depart. Dave Schwinderman, a long time family friend has also invited me to come hunting out at his house the second weekend in november. so thats another thing to look forward to. gotta love every turn.

Am i ready?

Well i was awoken yeaterday morning by my phone ringing. it was a heads up representative from Fedex, she asked if i had about a half hour so she could do an interview with me over the phone,so i spent the early hours on the phone in an interview than when i went to work to finish my last day of training. i had to go back to town and pee in cup. fun right. so anywho i survived and spent my last day of the week trying to suck up any more imformation like a sponge. Next week i'll probably pull some more hair out of my head trying to remember everything. it'll be worth it though.... i hope. But we are also looking forard to moving into our own house sometime in about the middle of the month so yeah for us. hopefully everything will continue to go well for us.

At Last.

Well all the excitement has finally ended for us and we are finally settling down after about a month of being gone. we got married in spokane washington. honeymooned in Canmore Alberta (thanks Smiths) :) and then finished off by spending two weeks in Vanderhoof. My wife has now seen the mother country, she would make smart remarks like, "oh you guys have houses i thought you lived in Igloos, oh i didn't know canadians used money, you have mountains wow this is interesting" so she enjoyed herself. and as for us it sweems like life seems to happen when we're busy making plans, as you all knew we we're planning on heading back to rexburg in January but a job has presented itself that is to good to turn down. it's with fedex. with full benifits and offering to pay part of my tuition. I had an interview this morning and it went well so i should know monday if i got the position. so wish us luck.
