Blizzard oh boy!

So a lot has been going on the past few days and everything has been just so hectic. On Thursday I went in and took the skilled test portion of my driving test and passed with flying colors only missing one about open range. I guess I just haven't been in Idaho long enough to fully understand what it is. And then we went shopping at Walmart and I decided to make Correy an Easter basket because it is our first Easter together, well more so first Easter apart since he is still at home and I am down in California getting ready for the wedding. I made it all up cute, in a basket and hide it in the closet for him to find. Then we were so excited that we stayed up till like 2 watching Tv before we crashed.
Then Friday was another hectic but very exciting day. So we got up early and Correy headed off to work and I started to get ready to head into town. Suzi, Correy's mom and I all went into town when I went to take my driver's test and I passed with flying colors! YAY ME! Then it was time for our mini Bridal shower. We went to Dillards to get our make up done, since I registered there we got a free make over and the bride got a free ten day supply of the make up. Way exciting cuz I was looking at buying some good make up for the wedding day. And then with our make up all done up we decided to hit the town to do a little shopping, and before long it was time to get ready for the temple. We got changed and headed over there and man it was an amazing experience and I loved that I got to share it with Correy. Afterwards as a celebration we headed over to Red Robin for a bite to eat before Correy and I hit the road. As we were leaving Red Robin it was starting to snow and we just hoped that it didn't start to stick for a while. By the time we got to Pocatello it was really coming down so we stopped at Walmart to pick up some windshield wiper blades. We couldn't even make it to Malad cuz it was coming down so bad and we couldn't go faster then 30 miles an hour or we would have started to slip and slide. So we stopped at a rest stop for a few hours and got some shut eye. when we woke up the roads were a little better and the farther we went the better they got and by the time we got to Salt Lake they were dry and it was bright and sunny. Got there in time to do a little bit of shopping and then to the airport in time for my flight.
When I got to La I was standing waiting for my parents to come and pick me up and some random guy was trying to get me to donate to his foundation and then he asked if I was pregnant, I was like wow, and then later decided it was the shirt I was wearing.
that evening I had an amazing Bridal shower that was really fun and had tons of friends there. They had asked me to write a cake recipe on my way home from the airport and what I would do to make a cake from scratch. I wrote down a beatnik cake recipe and turned it over to Sister Nilson and she said she was going to make it for the bridal shower. When she went to make it, it was too late to go to the store and so she substituted the beats for carrots and it tasted amazing! So I am going to try and perfect the recipe and then I will be happy to share it. Well 5 days left of being single!

To Move or not to Move is the Question

Image
So Correy and I have been looking more and more into moving and have finally decided that it is going to happen. It is just a matter of when and where. When have really been looking into two different areas, Rock Springs, Wyoming and St George, Utah. When we were first discussing where we would want to move I was leaning towards Wyoming, and now the more research that I do, I think that I really want to move to St George. In St George, Correy would be able to continue doing HVAC work and could still possibly open his own branch of High Tech Comfort in a few years. Also, there are more housing options, in our price range, that we could bring our puppies. We are hoping to rent a two bedroom house, that has a yard for the dogs. I have seen a few that I like a lot. We really want a two bedroom because if we have family come and visit we would like to be able to accommodate them instead of having them stay in a hotel. Also I think it would be nice to make it into a office too. Because we no

We Are Pregnant!!!!

Image
After being married for a year and going through life's many ups and down we are finally able to announce that we are pregnant. We are due December 17th, so its an early Christmas present to us. So far we have been to two doctors appointments and had two ultrasounds. The baby is doing great with a strong heartbeat. I have been lucky enough not to have morning sickness, the only symptom I have had hasjust been exhaustion and the aches and pains that come with pregnancy. I know it only looks like a blob, but you can see some limb buds and the head in some of them. We cant wait for our next appointment, June 3rd, when the baby will look soo much more like a baby, and I will be at the end of my first trimester. Her is a pic of me the first day we found out. And as for our Baby Bottle (the coke bottle bank we got on our honeymoon) we counted it a few days after finding out and we nearly had 160 dollars, we figure by the time I am in my third trimester we will have enough for th

Nursery Under Construction

Image
When I got home from California, the nursery was textured and ready for paint. On Friday after work, Correy primered the room so that it was all ready for paint. Saturday we had to go into town to get white paint for the ceiling and closet, and we got a paint that went on pink and dried white so that we would make sure that we weren't missing any spots. It was really cool but the pink doesn't really show up in pictures. But if you look close you may be able to tell that it has a pink tint to it. On Sunday, when we got home from Church we painted the nursery and I love the way that it turned out. Afterwards I was exhausted so I laid down and took a nap, while Correy helped his parents move furniture and when I woke up he was just moving the last bit of furniture. He decided he wasn't tired and was feeling rather productive so he swept the Nursery and started to lay down carpet, as he was getting to the end and just needed to to the closet I started vacuuming and by the time
