We finally found a house! Beau and I were so excited to move to St. George...No Snow! I miss Cedar, but now I am really loving St. George! Much better SHOPPING, a great NEIGHBORHOOD, and I can wear my FLIP FLOPS!

We took about a week and painted and did some TLC on the house. It's been a slow process (I'm still painting baseboards, blah!) but it's worth it :)

Temple Square - Christmas '10

When the whole family was in SLC for my grandpa's funeral we took a night and went out on the town! We started the night at Texas Roadhouse YUMMY! then headed to temple square. I was able to get a few pictures of the family :)

It was a blast to get my grandma to come and join in on our "Snaggle-Tooth" tradition after the temple!

Maddie May all bundled up! It was freezing cold...

October and November 2010

We have been super busy ever since we got home from Alaska. We got home the end of September and have been out of town every weekend since! (SLC, Provo, Mesquite, Cali, Wyoming...I could go on) And it doesn't look like it's going to slow down. We did, however, manage to take a few trips for us and have some fun!

The end of October we went to visit Ryan and Mindy in LA. We went to Six Flags one day and then to a Charger's game in San Diego. On our way home we ate lunch at Habit Burger with Chad, Tami and the girls. Kailey had plenty to tell me about trick-or-treating for Halloween. Chad said Maddie followed the other kids around holding her bucket out...she knew exactly what she was doing and how to get all the candy!

Last night we were lucky to get some Jazz tickets from Craig. They were 2nd row tickets with a VIP pass which included dinner! It made Chris pretty jealous because he's a big Jazz fan. My parents came with us and it was a really good game against OK City!

NERD ALERT!

So my mom has gotten me into Couponing...at first I thought it was pretty lame, and after the first experience I thought I would never do it again! Now that I've done it for a few weeks I am getting the hang of it and it has taken over my life...it's actually pretty fun!

My mom and I go to Walgreen's every Monday morning at 8. That way I can do my couponing with the least amount of people in the store. This last Monday we stopped by Staples then Smith's to get great deals! This is what I bought...

1 - All Laundry Detergent
4 - Edge Shaving Creams
4 - Boxes of Cheerios
4 - Nivea Body Wash
4 - Old Spice Body Wash
2 - Gillette Body Wash
6 - Miracle Whip
6 - Fuze Drinks
2 - Reams of Staples Paper
1 - Soy Milk
2 - Kraft BBQ Sauce
1 - Smart Balance Butter
7 - Crest Toothpaste
2 - Energizer Batteries (4 pk)
1 - Duracell Batteries (10 pk)
1 - Reach Dental Floss
1 - Ghiradelli Chocolate Bar
6 - Peanut M&M
1 - Wii Remote Candy Holder
1 - Dinosaur Toothbrush Holder
1 - Reynold's Tin Foil (75 sq ft)

So I got $233.55 worth of product, Spent $75.19, Saved $158.36 with a total of 68% savings! That's not even the best that I've done. I have put them all on a spreadsheet and for the month have saved 74% :) Now I finally have stuff to put in storage! Now if only I had a storage room haha

APX Backend Party

Nitro Circus came and performed at the APX Backend Party!

My camera couldn't get any good pictures when it got dark (I still don't know how to use it) so I only got a couple of pictures.

This was the track they were building all week. They put it up in the parking lot in front of the APX Building in Provo.

Travis Pastrona and the other guys in the crew all skydived in. It was cool cuz they jumped out of the plane and came shooting straight down and then ejected their shutes and came landing in the track. Travis actually ran into a dirt jump. haha

Beau was holding Jeter (Craig and Julie Andersen's) when they came landing in and he was so cute just staring up at the sky. He thought it was way cool!

Travis Pastrona and the Jazz Bear

APX Corporate...Travis did a jump over them.

This was also our FIRST YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Wahoo! What a torrific year Beau and I had...well maybe you should ask Beau if he thinks different haha But after the party we went and stayed at Hines Mason, a bed and breakfast in downtown Provo. We had alot of fun and would recommend staying there!

Wildlife Tour - Seward, AK

We were lucky to be able to go on a Wildlife Tour! Beau wanted to take his guys for an incentive :) So there was a big group of 15 that went...and I'm mad I didn't take a picture of people on the boat, mostly the wild.

Tessa before we boarded...she's a model :)

Bram and Tessa

Tessa, Bram, Chris

A cute little otter, busy eating

All my pictures of the Bald Eagles were blurry...it was hard to take a picture really far away and while the boat was rocking. We were even lucky to see an Eagle's nest!

It was a beautiful ride, there is still a lot of snow so it was pretty cold.

Sea Lions

King of the Mountain

Mountain Goat

I was really looking forward to seeing this little guy! We saw quite a few but they wouldn't let us get close, they would just fly away....Puffins! It's the one little bird off to the left by itself.

There are tons of birds! You can see little white specks in the next picture. I can't remember what they're called, but they're about the size of a pigeon but all white.
