Valentines Weekend

Jon and I were separated this past weekend, which sucked. This was our first valentines we spent apart. Jon had a construction competition in Reno in which he left Wednesday at 3:30 AM. He rode on a bus for 12 long hours, in which he did not sleep. He was able to return Sunday at 2:00 AM. His team did well. They were late turning their project in, so they could not place. The rumor is if they did turn in it on time they would have placed 3. So GOOD JOB. Jon slept most of Sunday and even slept in Monday morning ( any one who knows Jon knows that he does not sleep in at all!).

So I did not want to be by myself the whole entire time, so my sister and I decided to go to my Aunt Malea's house. We left Friday at 2:30 and got back Monday around 1. It had been so long since I had I seen them. It was fun to play with everyone, except for Wyatt decided to throw up Saturday night. That was not fun. We watched a lot of movies. There was also a lot of baking involved. We even did chores. So I would put up pictures from Jon's competition, but he did not give me any, so there are just pictures from my Aunts house.

PondSkimming

Our school does Pondskimming every February for spirit week. Since I do the publicity for Outdoor Activities, I had the opportunity to help out. Now since I helped out Jon had no choice, he was going to do it. He went towards the end, and was freezing. If you cant tell he is wearing waiters and started going down in his fishing hat. He went down on an air board. He did pretty good, he didn't make it all the way across but he also did not have a really awesome crash. When he reach the end of the "pond" he hurried out and went to the warming tents to dry off and change clothes. The night was really fun and I am really glad Jon did it. I think secretly he had fun.

First time the gun was shot

We finally got out to shoot Jon's gun for the first time. He got this gun for Christmas. It is an AR 15 223. It is really pretty and heavy. It took us so long to shoot because he had to get a scope and mount it just right. Also we had to wait for a some what warm day so that we don't freeze. We went to the gun range for the first time and found out that it is 5 dollars a person to shoot, so Jon was the only one that got to shoot his gun. He did really good for "siting " in the gun. You can't really see his target but he is pretty close in the middle. It was really fun and we can't wait to go out and shoot it some more. He now wants to go coyote hunting in a week to really find out how it shoots.

Sheep Falls

A couple weeks ago Jon and his friend Andrew decided to explore Sheep falls in the winter time. They snow shoed 6-8 miles round trip. They hiked down to the falls and tried to do alittle fishing (if they caught a fish there would be a picture). All in all they had fun and saw a lot of animal tracks like: moose, coyote, and rabbit.

Update

I know we are lame not updating the blog as much as we should. Life has been so busy!! Jon finally came back home, we had one short day together before heading to Oregon for Christmas. We did enjoy our time there. I really enjoyed not having to cook and clean as much. Oregon had the worst winter in like 30 years, so becuase of that Jon was not able to shoot his new gun. Which by the way that is all he talks about. If any one wants to come over and see it, he would love to show you!! Santa was good to us this year and we got a lot of cool gifts. But after 2 weeks we had had enough, and plus school was going to start soon. We were lucky to stay with Laura and her family. We were blessed to see Carsen get baptized and are so proud of him. School started a little too fast. I had to work the two days before school started and well I will just say our house is still not in order. Jon school schedule is crazy!! He is so busy and always reading. We keep praying for February 14 when his schedule will lighten up. My schedule is so-so but I am still working at the ORC which takes up some of my time. For Christmas Santa gave me a loom set. So because Jon has so much reading to do I am knitting a scarf. SO if any one wants one, let me know I am getting pretty good. We are looking forward to this 3 day weekend. Tomorrow Jon and his friend Andrew are going to back country ski in Island park and go fishing. Hopefully they will get some good pictures. As for myself I hope to get my house in order. We love you all and will work on updating our blog more often.

Birthday Party

Happy Birthday to me on Wednesday!! It was so nice of Christa and Chris to make a cake for me. And if you can not tell Chris drew a diaper on the bear trying to tell me we need to have kids. Anyways it was a nice relaxing evening. Mike and Ali came over and we ate cake and ice cream, watched a movie and played games. Thursday night was my real birthday celebration. At my work meeting they brought ice cream and cup cakes for my birthday. Than I got my hair cut ( which was my birthday present to myself). And Ali and I went out to dinner. Even though my birthday would have been better if Jon was here, it was good. I am lucky to have friends here that love and support me.

Hit and Run

This happened Wednesday night at school. I was exercising with my friend Ali. I forgot something at home so we left the Hart and ran home. As I was coming back into the Hart parking lot we saw a cop circling and a man whistling at us. So I stop and was really confused and scared. This nice man told me that I was hit, he saw the accident and while Ali and I were running home he went inside to call the police. He did not write down the right license plate number, but he tried. So the police man made a report and is going to let me know if they happen to find the guy. So I took in the truck the other day to get an estimate on how much it will cost to fix...$1,222.78!!!! That much for such a little dent. Oh well...
