We're Pregnant!!

Halloween night, we had been helping some friends out. Our little Paco dog was sick and i couldnt find any baby aspirin for him so we ended up going to town. In the mean time at the store, i noticed i was about a week and a half late so we picked up a pregnancy test. We finally arrived at home around 2am. We gave paco his medicine, and we were going to watch a movie since neither of us were tired. I decided to take the test because I knew i wasnt pregnant... ha ha Oh no, i looked at the test, grabbed the paper to make sure and then showed Ben and the paper.. That was around 230am, so needless to say we didnt sleep very well that night... December 8th, was our first ultra sound appointment. The baby is healthy, 9 weeks 3 days now, and about the size of a peanut! We are so excited! Our due date for now is July 11th, 2010

Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We stayed here in Oregon this year, and had a lot of aunts, uncles and cousins! We took the kids shooting, horseback riding, and went to Ashland! Not to mention all of the yummy food we ate!

Fun Times

Its been a while since i have updated anything... The end of the summer we headed to Vegas for a week and had a blast with Glenn, Diane, Josh, and Danielle. Then we headed back to oregon, and on the way stopped and saw my cousins, and the we arrived home.. Then we had work to do for our business, so we did some jobs, and also had fun with the horses. We took a really nice ride with a lot of our friends... Ben also got his first deer! so that was kind of excting! This weekend is going to be a blast, pictures will be posted as soon as i get them .. We are hosting a show for Habitat for Humanity, and theres going to be a booth for our concrete, and scentsy.. and we have family and friends coming up!!

The House Project

The last week of July i went to UT. The first week of August Ben had scout camp, so i thought i would just go down and help my parents with there house... I ended up being there for about three weeks helping my dad, a little longer than i had planned, but it turned out to be good and we were able to get the house done.. In the mean time while i was there, Ben was in OR doing work, bids etc... Then he drove down Last week to my parents.... But anyways, as you can see in the pics, it turned out to be really good! and we definitely learned soo much.

St. George, Los Angeles, and Arizona.....

Well me and Ben have made quite the journey in the past week.... We went down to St George, on the way there gave a bid for in Lake Shastina, CA. So instead of 18 hours it took us about 20 ... So we finally made it on the 25th of June.. at like 5.30 in the AM... So while were down there, we were able to spend time with friends and family.. .Ellies wedding was beautiful, and it was good to see everyone... So the following saturday after the wedding we went down to L.A. and were able to spend a couple of days there. We had a blast just hangin out, swimming, and made it to the beach! It was soo much fun, just wish we had more time, next time for sure a full week down there.... The following tuesday morning we left for Mesa, Arizona.... While we were down there we were able ot figure out a little more of what we are going to focus our business on... In the mean time got some really great exerience with countertops, and met some awesome people! Oh and i cant forget the nice hot weather!! The down side I ended up going to the hospital for what i thought was apendicitis! YUCK! Thank goodness it wasnt.... and now have an idea of what was and is causing the pain.. Now I am back in Grants Pass, i flew back since i have girls camp on monday, and Ben is now UT and is going to drive back... So just an update of whats going on in our lives...

Our first year Anniversary

This past year has flown by, it seems just like yesterday we were married, and already its our anniversary.. I am so greatful for the man i have in my life, and the friendship,relationship, and marriage we share. I only look foreward enjoying the moments we have everyday.. anwyho, sooooo The day before our anniversary one of Bens cousins was getting married up in Salem . On our way up we ended up going to Wildlife Safari, and the next day ended up on the coast. We had so much fun, unfortunately not quite long enough, but its never long enough.

Camping by the Illinois River....

This past memorial day we went camping with some of our friends down by the river. We had so much fun! The weather was beautiful, the water still a little nippy, but still a lot warmer than the Rogue River is by far. The camp site was just a random road of the side of the hill, that we couldnt even fit our truck down, but it was the perfect place. We cant wait to go again soon!

2009 Homeshow

This is our third homeshow that we have participated in the past two years now. We had a pretty good turnout, was able to show off our new countertop products, and fireplaces, and gained a few great leads and contacts. We got the opportunity to give a presentation on going green with concrete, and were also able to do some networking with other companies! Thankfully Tiffs parents were up here to help! We couldnt have done it without them, Robbie polished up a storm! It was very stressful getting everything set up but definately worth it! . Overall things went great, and we cant believe its already been a year since we officially were engaged since it was right before the may homeshow... ha ha , and now its just a month away from our 1 year anniversary!

HBA Dinner

This year we sponsored a dinner for one of the Home Builders Association meetings. It turned out really well! We were able to network with some other companies, and introduce our company to others! So it worked out really well, and we were also able to display some of our new products that we are using for countertops... As you see in the second picture! Its absolutely gorgeous, and theres more soon to come!!

Big Pine Trail

One sunday afternoon after Tiffs parents came up here, we all went on a ride, and a small walk where the largest pine tree in the world is... It was a beautiful day and as you can see, everything around us was beautiful as well.. We all went up with Pat and Ralph, and Tiffs parents... It was very relaxing and fun!

Crater Lake...

This past weekend we took the missionaries to Crater Lake. We weren't able to see much due to all the snow, but it was beautiful, and we all had soo much fun playin in the snow. There was a lodge and the snow was so high that it reached the roof! So we ended up rolling,and sliding down it, thank goodness nobody got hurt...

Portland

We went up to Portland for Derricks wedding. We went to the sealing and the reception. It was good to see a few of our friends again. We did a session also, the Portland temple is very beautiful on the inside and out! That night we ended up going bowling for like four hours, it was a blast though, but because it was sooo late, we ended up staying up there, but it was a good little miniature get-a-way. It was a long exhausting couple of days, but we had a good time and glad we went up!

Our First Baptism

. Ben had the opportunity to baptize these boys, Anthony and Isaiah, and I put the entire program together, and gave the talk on the Holy Ghost. March 14th was a special day for us. The following Sunday, Ben also confirmed both of them, so the was really special also! We are both so greatful that we could be involved in there baptism. It truly was a neat experience for both of us : )

Having fun

So when we come back down from Salt Lake, we had to finish the countertop Job. In the mean time we were able to spend some time with Soni, Kelby, and Addison. We were also able to babysit Addison one day, it was soo much fun, and she was soo good and soo cute. We had a blast!We also were able to hangout with James and Jim also, we went to dinner and stuff, and were able to go to James FFA creed which i might add he did and awesom job! so over all we had a great visit and cant wait to get back!

Visiting the parents

After we got done with the world of concrete, when we got back into St. George we had an experiment countertop job to do, so we had to run up north to get some chemical. In the mean time, we had a surprise, we took Honnah up there with us. We were able to get her groomed, and bathed. It was fun, me and my dad spent a few hours cutting her hair, and then she got a bath. My parents didnt end up keeping her, but she was able to get cleaned up. So we had a good visit with my parents, and headed back down to St George...

World of Concrete

Sorry it has been a while, things have been absolutely crazy these days.... We went to the world of concrete the first week of February. We met my parents, and stayed with them at Circus Circus. We were down there for about a week running around to all the different exhibits, and were able to get a lot of networking done, and some great connections! I was able to take a class on overhead management, and accounting. It wasnt the funnest thing in the world, but i was able to learn alot! The picture is just one of many things which we ran into. We also ended up going to the shops at Ceasars and had a blast!! If i posted all of the pictures, it would take hours... lol
