Next best thing to Kids

Next best thing to kids for D.J. and I are these two Cats. We bought Zella(left) and Mazie(right) during the first week we moved in to our home. They are so much fun to have and we love having some extra company in our house. D.J. and I always thought we were dog people but with our busy schedules that we have there was no way we could care for a dog. So... instead we bought two cats. They are very independent creatures and just love to sleep and eat all day. They are great and we love having them as part of our family.

The Latest News!

Our New Home!!!
D.J. and I's latest news is that we have purchased our first home. Although it needs a little work on the inside, we absolutely love it. Below is a picture of one of the rooms we are currently working on. This will be our family room where we watch movies and where our kids can play and have fun. Prior to our renovation there was neon yellow walls with brown paneling and brown shaggy carpet. I think this is much better. D.J. is also working in our laundry room, which is the room just over from this one. He really is doing a great job with fixing our house up. Dad has really helped out alot also.





So... here is our back yard. In the corner by the fence is an apple tree, which will be fun come summer time. In the other corner of the yard ( you can't see) is a nice shed to put our lawn equipment in and also a great spot to place a garden. I think I'm going to try and attempt to garden this summer.

Just Checking In!

Hello Everyone! I just wanted to inform you all that due to our stolen camera I have not been able to update our blog, However, Santa brought us a new camera which means you will be recieved an update soon! We hope everyone is doing well and we miss you all.

The Memory Game!

I'm copying Celeste's blog here for a minute, but I wanted to play the memory game also. The way the game works is you write a memory that you and I share. Any type of memory that consists of you and I together. This memory dosn't have to be significant or important just a memory that you and I have together. Comment on the memory and if you do I will do the same for you. Thanks for all everyone does and have a great day!

Random Pics!

A Few random pictures I found on our Computer of D.J. and I. This was one that we took recently and I thought it would be fun to put on our blog.

D.J. and I while we were dating. We had just gone out to dinner here and were madly inlove! :)
This is a picture of me in Utah getting ready to go to a BYU game with D.J. and Lisa. Before we went into the game there was this pot luck type of thing where people were trying to crush this car with a sludge hammer. This is me trying to make a dent in the car. This was one of the first times I had really known D.J. and went out of town with him.

Cowboys Here We Come!

We all went to the Warbonnet Roundup last Saturday and had a Great time! Here is D.J. and I struttin our stuff as Cowboys. It was a bonus because Dexter ended up riding in the Rodeo that night so were were able to watch him do his thing also.

There is Mom and Dad at the Rodeo.

Mat and Kat having a BLAST waiting for the Rodeo to begin!

Picture of my girly friends with us at the Rodeo. It was so nice of D.J. and his family to let my friends come and hang out with us. They sure are a fun couple of wild women!!

Lisa and Ebube enjoying themselves at the Rodeo also.

A Few Days in McCall, Idaho

D.J. and I drove to McCall a couple weekends ago to visit my Aunt Kelly and Uncle Chris. They are the greatest people and love to entertain company. Here we are playing a game of horse shoes after an amazing dinner at their house.

This is D.J. an I after we arrived in McCall. It was absoultely beautiful there and we had alot of fun!

The second day we were there we traveled up to a resort there in McCall called Tamerack. It is a all year resort on this mountain where people can come golf, camp, ski, hike, bike, and boat. It was pretty amazing to see all the work they had put into this great resort. Here is a picture of D.J. and I at the golf course there at Tamerack.

D.J. and I having fun in the sun. D.J. had some awsome shots of him water sking but I forgot to put them on our blog.

There is another shot of D.J. and I in front of my Aunt Kelly's house. She does such a good job with her flower bed and lawn. Everything was so pretty there.
