Random Updates

Hail Storm!!! Yesterday, I was sitting in the house and all of a sudden it sounded like someone was busting the walls down- we ran outside to see the largest hail I have ever seen!!! It was crazy! It did some damage on a lot a peoples cars- including Chase's truck :(

Here are the guys after the storm. By the way, I guess this is a good time to introduce Orey and Coulton who are currently living with Chase and I :)

Coulton is Chases brother, and Orey is his cousin- we are having fun. I have to say that Coulton is a great cook, and Orey is great a doing dishes- it quite a treat and an awesome addition to the family.

A few weeks ago Mom Dad, and Matt (my cousin) came over for dinner. I am so excited that Matt lives here now while he is going through med school :)

Last month Chase did the Lotoja Bike race with Nic, Ryan and Marshal. The race starts in Logan UT, and ends in Jackson, WY. I was not able to go, but from what I heard and pictures that I saw, everyone had a great time. I am so proud of all of them! This is a picture of Chase before he left with his truck loaded and ready to go :)

Weekend in Utah

Chase's little brother (Coulton) got home from his mission, he served in Texas. It was so good to see him!!! We are so happy that he is home!

Below are more pictures of Chase's other little brother, Chaz's, baptism. He waited for Coulton to come home so he could baptized him.

It was an amazing weekend. We had a lot major events, and I am so glad it was all in the same weekend so Chase and I could be there for all of it. We had so much fun :)

Count Down

I have 54 days of school left, and I am SO excited! The class that I am currently in is tough, and it makes it hard to stay motivated, but I am so close to being done. I graduate June 25 with my Bachelors in management :) HORAY! Other than school, my new job at Arrowhead Health is amazing, I love the people I work with, and I couldn't ask for a better schedule.

Chase is keeping busy with the pool cleaning company. Awhile ago we had this website made, and i thought it would be fun to post it so anyone can check us out- http://www.azpropools.com/. Other then work, Chase has been training for a triathlon, his first race is this month- I'll keep everyone posted. Well, that is my random update- much love to everyone :)

Crafts

For Valentine's Day, my sister Amber found these adorable little Valentine's that we made. They were so much fun to make. We made them for the girls that I teach on Sunday's at church in Young Women's. They are made out of Dum Dums Pops and paper.

*One Lesson that I taught in Young Women's was called, "Sharing Work in the Home". The lesson was all about doing your part in keeping the house clean and doing chore. Anyways, I found this idea from a website called Sugardoodle.net where they used a sponge and created a cute hand out. Well, I took this idea and made up my own thing. The girls loved it, and the next Sunday they call told me that they used their sponge to help clean the house. It was too cute!

More Maya and rain

My Dad made Maya a beautiful collar. Chase and I love it! She is hard to take pictures of, so I did my best. Thank you dad!!!!!

The other day I was in the living room, and I noticed that the light coming in from the windows was pink, I went outside and there was this beautiful rainbow. So, I tried to take a picture, but whenever I take a picture of a rainbow, it never turns out as cool in the picture. But Maya and I enjoyed it for the short time it lasted.

These are pictures of the field across the street from our house after we got all that rain a couple weeks ago. I have been meaning to post these for dad. At one point there was so much water it covered all of the grass.

Rain!

To keep you updated, Chase and I could not find the owners of the dog that we found back in November, so we kept her, and we love her SO much! We call her Maya. We have been trying to teach her tricks and so far all she knows is sit. However, we have been working on playing fetch. Well, it rained today so Chase and I decided to have some fun. We took her out in the field across the street from our house and played in the water. Turns out she loves the water, and could not stop fetching the ball :)
