The Days

31 Weeks down! 9 to go!

2012-01-26T11:14:00.010-07:00

I have been horrible at keeping this up to date! But while I have time I would like to post some memories of this pregnancy!

Things I love:

1. Feeling the baby move around, hiccups and him rubbing his foot on hard surfaces it by far the coolest.

2. Being able to see my tummy bounce when he moves.

3.Seeing how in tune he and puggles are with each other, they will for sure be BFFs!

4. Watching Dave's face every time he gets kicked, its like it shocks him every time.

5. buying everything for his nursery and putting it all together.

Things I don't love as much:

1. Having to pee 1000 times a day

2. Not being able to take anything except Tylenol for my hip, and back pain.

3. Not getting any sleep, I'm a belly sleeper and well I can really do that right now.

This pregnancy, though I stress myself out at times, has been very easy and I am soo thankful for that. I was only sick for about 2 weeks total in the beginning. I have only gained 9 lbs total and have not been able to see anything except my tummy growing. My legs and butt have actually shrunk in size! :) I have been measuring 2 weeks bigger than I should but baby measures right on track in the 60th percentile. Which the Dr says is really good! I have been relatively healthy, we did find that my thyroid wasn't working and my Iron is low but I have been given medications for both and am doing great! I have only gotten sick once all winter and have only had to suffer a few migraines but other than that I have never felt so good!

The Nursery is almost completed, just need little accessories like a swing, bouncer and some other little needs and we will be set for his arrival. My mom and best friend are throwing me a shower next week that I am excited for! Here are a few pictures of everything in the last 10 weeks.

Puggles is so funny, she always has to have her head, paw or body on my belly, but what amazes me is that the baby will start to kick as soon as she does this. makes me wonder if he knows she is there?

Every ultrasound I have had my lil man likes to hide his face but loves to show is "man parts" I am dying for a 3D pic of his face but he refuses. This is from my 28 week ultrasound once again he wont show his face but will show the world his little wiener! If you cant tell what this picture is that's his butt facing up with the arrow pointing to his lil wiener and scrotum (already posting embarassing pics of him haha)!

This cute lil outfit was given to us by our good Friend Cody Nelson, I bought the shoes to match but cant wait to put him in his first Oregon Duck outfit.

The Nursery:

My parents gave us the rocking chair and crib bedding for Christmas, which I LOVE! I bought the crib and dresser, I was so proud of putting up the crib all by myself, no male assistance at all! Then Dave put the dresser up for me while I was out of town and my cute mom put up all the decals, made the valence for the window and made some cute baskets for diapers and such! It really feels like a baby room now! I cant wait until he is here to complete it all! :)

After making my invitations for my bridal shower, wedding and thank you cards, I have found a love for making invitations, SO I couldn't pass up the chance to make my baby shower invites! I absolutely love how they turned out! and cant wait for the many birthday invites I will be able to do in the future!

The time is coming so fast and I get more and more excited every day! We had some Maternity pictures taken about 2 weeks ago that I will post once I get them! :)

Its a.............

2011-10-20T20:57:00.005-06:00

We had an ultra sound this week to determine the sex of baby Day and we are sooo THRILLED to announce that it is a........

These ultra sound pics arent the best but I still have to share.

Baby Day Heart Beat

2011-10-01T22:04:00.005-06:00

For our family in Oregon, Grandma in St. George and friends. :)

First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage, Then comes BABY!! :)

2011-10-01T21:35:00.004-06:00

So I know I have been HORRIBLE at updating this! But feel I should post some pictures and im going to try and post a recording of the heart beat. :)

I am due April 2, 2012 and I keep having bad dreams that I am going to go into labor on April fools and that no one will believe me lol.

We get to find out if we are having a little boy or a little girl in only 2 weeks!

Though this was very unexpected we are both beyond thrilled for this new adventure.

These pics and the heart beat were taking 4 weeks ago (when I was just over 10 weeks)

Catching Up!

2011-07-06T21:47:00.005-06:00

I have not updated in a long time! So much has gone on in the past 6 months!!
To start David and I had so much fun together on our first anniversary. We spent time in Oregon with Daves family for a few days then Dave took me to San Fransisco for our anniversary. We Stayed down town by union square and had so much fun exploring and shopping! Pier 39 was amazing!! Here are a few pic from our trip:

Dave and I infront of Lumbard Street

Ghirardelli Factory

Dave and I in Union Square

I Loved the Cable cars! Felt Like Full House!

Dave and I infront of China town

I had a lot of fun riding the cable car!

And second of all and probably the thing that has been the most life changing is David being in the National Guard. David left for basic training May 1 2011, and has been in Ft. Benning GA for the past 9 weeks. This time apart has been hard but has defiantly made our love so much stronger. David has had to go threw so much training and has truly put in so much hard work. He metaled in Rifle shooting and Grenade throwing! He graduates BCT next week on Thursday July 14, 2011. He has truly worked so hard and has accomplished so much! I could not be more proud of my husband! Here are a few pictures from his training:
I won a few pics of Dave off his company's facebook page

Dave and his battle buddy Bryan Daniel! Hopefully new friends for life!

Another Picture I won of Dave

This is a picture from Dave doing the rifle training! He looks soo tough!

All in all the past 7 months have been full of trials, fun, and A LOT of LOVE! I am so excited to see David Next week! And I am excited to start this new life together!

Big News!!!

2010-12-19T14:45:00.004-07:00

So after a year of considerations, months of arguments, and hours of emotional talks, David and I have agreed and made the decision that as of Tuesday December 21, 2010 David will officially be part of........

It was one of the hardest decisions we have made together but we believe it is going to be a great one as well! We know it is not going to be easy but We also know we have each other and many friends and family that will be here for support!!

I am so proud of the man I married, and this just adds to it! I love you David Day!

WARNING: Long post!!! 2 months worth!!

2010-11-14T14:10:00.010-07:00

So I have been an absolute SLACKER on updating our blog.. But SOOO much has been going on!!! First and foremost David and I made the big move back to Salt Lake.. FINALLY! :) So we have been shacking up at my parents house while we were unemployed.. I was lucky to get a job shortly after we moved and now work as a Medical Assistant/Surgical Tech at a Dermatology office, I can honestly say it is the best and most interesting job I have ever had! I assist the Dr. in something called Mohs Surgery wich in short terms is complete cancer removal, it gets pretty intense!! Any who, David Just got a job last week as a tow truck driver for Speedy towing and so far he seems to be really liking it!! So we will hopefully be getting our own place soon!!

Being in Salt Lake has had its advantages for both of us, I have my girls and family and David has long time friend from Oregon only 25 minutes away.. Here are a few pictures from the past 2 months!

When we first moved back my AMAZING girls and I went out to celebrate!
I love these girls!!

Another Joy of my new job is that I get off by 1:00 pm on Fridays so one afternoon I decided to Take Dave up Little Cottonwood Canyon to see the BEAUTFUL leaves!

Halloween this year was a BLAST! On Friday we went to Cody and Vanessa's house for a fun and very entertaining party.. Then on Saturday we went to thriller with Brooke, Sean and Ad. That to was a very fun evening.. If you cant tell this year I was Lady Gaga and David was my Jackass (Jonny Knoxville) :)

Last weekend I finally let david go to Orem to have a guys day with his best friend Randy.. They went and did "man" stuff lol; 4-wheeling, gun shooting.. and other stuff im not too sure about or want to know :)

This weekend I got to spend some more time with the Girls, Ad, Brit and I met up at Brooke's and had a nice quiet relaxing day making picture frames and Cake balls.. It was so nice to just sit around and girl talk! I love every moment with these girls!!!

The one who means the most!

2010-09-19T23:31:00.006-06:00

I have been thinking a lot about my sweet husband lately and how much he truely means to me! I am so thankful for his un devoted love and patients towards me. I am so blessed to have found a man that is so amazing! He never stops caring or loving me! He has one of the biggest hearts I know! He is truely my HERO! I am so proud of all he does, I dont know where I would be with out him! I thank god every day for bringing the most wonderful gift I could have ever asked for! I love you David Douglas Day! Thank you for all you do for me!!!

HERO
There's a hero If you look inside your heart You don't have to be afraid Of what you are There's an answer If you reach into your soul And the sorrow that you know Will melt away
And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you'll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you

It's a long road When you face the world alone No one reaches out a hand For you to hold You can find love If you search within yourself And the emptiness you felt Will disappear
And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you'll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you

Lord knows Dreams are hard to follow But don't let anyone Tear them away Hold on There will be tomorrow In time You'll find the way

And then a hero comes along With the strength to carry on And you cast your fears aside And you know you can survive So when you feel like hope is gone Look inside you and be strong And you'll finally see the truth That a hero lies in you

Our first 3 months as the Days.

2010-07-18T10:55:00.009-06:00

WARNING: LOOONNNG Post!!

SO I have been a major slacker on blogging since the wedding! But so much has happened in the last 3 months..

David started a new job with the BLM on the Tatra crew stationed on the Arizona strip, he lives out there for about 4-5 days a week, unless there is a fire then he is gone for about14 days or until the fire is out.. here are some pictures he has taken:

My work gives away free family pictures every year for an employee appreciation.. So we got our family pictures taken with all 3 dogs :) Which was an adventure! but the pictures turned out great

Then Davey turned the big 25!! He was on a fire and I didn't know if he would be home so I went over to the BLM and decorated his truck and made him a cake and bought some goodies to surprise him when he got home!

My old roommate and a very close friend to David and I, Nikki got married, I got the honor of being her Maid-of-honor, She looked so Beautiful and we are both so Happy for her!! CONGRATS you two!! He are a few pictures of her big day!

Then last weekend was my big 21! David was out on a fire and unable to celebrate with me but my family came down south to be with me, my mom and I went shopping all day and my family(minus Davey) went out to dinner.. here is a picture from dinner.

And the newest news we bought a new truck and sold the white one thank goodness!! Here are some pictures of the new truck!

Overall its been a wonderful 3 months! and we are both excited for all that is to come!

Wedding pictures!!

2010-03-25T19:55:00.004-06:00

David and his fellow fire fighters recieved a merit of honor for a fatal fire they responded to on March 3. I am so very proud of him and all of the fire fighters that help protect all of us and each other!! Thank you to all these brave HEROS!

Bridal Shower

2010-03-15T12:14:00.005-06:00

Happy Valentines, And some wonderful news!

2010-02-16T21:33:00.009-07:00

This Valentines David and I kept it close to home! On Saturday we went to our favorite Kay's Jeweler and picked out Davids wedding ring.. He wanted me to pick out a wedding band but I told him I didn't want one because it would cover the cute heart on the sides of my ring :) So we got David's ordered and it should be ready at the beginning of March! On Sunday David cleaned the house a lot for me and I cooked him a big dinner! It felt like thanksgiving all over again! I cooked a 21.5 lbs turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, vegis, and ended it with warm apple pie and vanilla ice cream! It was delicious and in my opinion the best gift you can give a man that LOVES to eat :)!!!

More good news is that David got a new job as a Official Santa Clara City fireman! he was so excited for his new spot with the crew! He was so excited when he found out he got the job it was like a kid in a candy store! He got this news around 10:30 AM Friday morning and at 3:35PM they had a call for a structure fire, a multi million dollar house had caught on fire. David was first on the scene and was the one that put the actual flame out! He was so excited! He was on this fire for 7 and a half hours. When he got home at quarter to 11 he was hyper off all the excitement and was very smelly!! :) on Saturday morning we woke up and looked at the news paper and David was on the front page!
I am so very proud of my Husband-to-be!!!
Here are some pictures from the paper!

Busy Busy Busy!!

2010-01-28T21:31:00.002-07:00

January has been a crazy month for us.. For Christmas I got David a week long trip to Oregon to spend some well needed time with his family so he was gone Jan. 8 - 15. Which I must say in our new home was so hard, That place is too big for just me and the dogs, and it doesn't help that I am a HUGE baby! But he loved being in Oregon and getting to spend time with his family!

Mean while back here in Utah my mom and I have been working hard on getting things ready for our wedding.. things are coming a long wonderfully! Mostly thanks to my mom! I had to laugh at myself because for years I have said I want my wedding to be "this" and now that I am getting married everything has changed except my choice in flowers.. go figure!

I also finally went back to school this month. I am taking 10 credit hours this semester 3 over the summer and 10 next fall and I should graduate with my Associates next winter. Then I can just focus on getting my teaching degree!

My Maid-of-Honor Shannon came down and spend the weekend with David and I this last weekend and we got a head start on planning my Bridal Shower and just got some much needed girl time in!

After all that I came down with Bronchitis and have just been so useless this week! I am so exhausted and just want to sleep all the time and can hardly breath!

I am starting to feel better so I am hoping if the weather agrees with me this weekend I want to go do our engagements! I can't believe we only have a little over 2 months left.. even though it has only been 1 month :) It never seemed so close until now! But we are both so so excited!

We have gotten a lot done but still LOTS to do :)

Kicking of the wedding planning!

2010-01-13T20:08:00.002-07:00

While I was in Salt Lake for Christmas my mom, my Maid-of-Honor Shannon and I went reception looking and found the most beautiful place and booked it for Saturday April 17Th 2010! I am so so excited! We have gotten A Lot of the plans done and I am SO SO SO thankful for my mom, my Maid-Of-Honor, and my other bridesmaids for making planning a wedding in Salt Lake while living in St. George so much easier for me! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! I am so blessed to have each of these people on my life!!!!

Here is a picture after our proposal:

Happy Holidays!

2010-01-08T19:51:00.000-07:00

So I am a little late writing about to holidays, but this holiday season was absolutely Amazing!!!!! Christmas was a blast with my family, after getting my wonderful gift from David :) we got to spend time with the family. Here is a picture of my Brother and I on Christmas Eve and a picture of David and I on Christmas morning.

New years was a lot of fun also! We started the night at First Night with Nikki and Dan, then we went and saw The Chipmunks 2, It was a hilarious movie!! And we had the WHOLE theater to ourselves. After the movie we went up to the airport and met our friends Cody and Julie to watch fire works!! We ended the night at our house with friends and just having a good time! I am so thankful for another year with my amazing David!!!

We're engaged!!!!

2009-12-19T15:09:00.006-07:00

David told me he was going shopping for my christmas present this morning(December 19) so I didnt even bother getting ready, even though EVERYONE gave me hints to.. So I was watching a movie and I heard a loud truck out side so I looked out the window and saw a fire truck.. I opened the door thinking one of David's fire fighting friends was here and there David was in his fire stuff ...with a black box in his hand.. He asked me to come out side and I was like "David what are you doing?" Then he got down on his knee and asked my to marry him!! I am so so so happy! We have set the date to be April 17th 2010!!

Here are pictures of my ring.. Pictures and video are to fallow!!!

Some changes and decorating for Halloween!

2009-10-04T12:34:00.007-06:00

SO on Saturday David and I went to a few furniture stores to just see what the had on sale and we ended up getting a killer deal!!! We got this couch, the rug and 2 side tables for $230 on a Scratch and dent sale, and they were floor models so it was even cheaper!! And the couche barely has any scratches.. the tables have non at all and neither does the rug.. That I can see at least! We love it! It finally feels like a home!!

We had fun having a home instead of an apartment to decorate this year.. here are a few pictures of our decorations!

My handsome man!

2009-08-20T22:31:00.003-06:00

David got his official uniform for Santa Clara fire department and I think he looks so very handsome! I love you David!

I am so very proud of you!!

Still going strong.

2009-08-12T17:50:00.008-06:00

This month makes 1 year and 7 months for David and I. I just wanted to write a little thank you to Ben Mcguire for introducing us! I am the luckiest girl in the world and couldn't imagine my life with anyone else in the world!

I love you David!

Here is a picture of the 2 of us the first time we ment and now!

Then January 2008

Now August 2009

Take me out to the ball game!

2009-08-10T17:37:00.000-06:00

Last week The St. George minor league baseball team, The Roadrunners, had a breast cancer awareness game and David and I had front row tickets.

I promised my little buddy AJ that I would take him the next time we went to a game, so I called his mom up and asked if we could take him to the game. He was way excited and way cute, we bought him a baseball and David took him down to the locker room and had the team sign the ball. They also gave everyone free pink t-shirts.. It took a lot of bribing to get AJ into that shirt but after Dip 'N Dots, A snow cone, an some root beer he finally caved. Thank you Amy for letting us take him!!

Here are a couple pictures from that night!

Baker Res.

2009-07-13T10:58:00.006-06:00

So for my birthday we went camping at the Baker Res. It was nice and peaceful. We pretty much had the whole place to our selves. It was nice to get away and just relax. Here are some cute pictures of the dogs playing in the water and around camp. Puggles loves to swim but we couldn't get Shasta to swim for the life of us.. I also put a video of puggles swimming, she is so cute! It was a wonderful weekend though!!

Birthday Maddness

2009-07-10T13:43:00.004-06:00

So today is my birthday and I just wanted to post pictures of my day.

The cute girls at my work decorated my desk.

My good friend Ashley baked me a cake.

And I made myself this cake. I tried to do the fondant thing.. lol

David and I are going camping up at Baker Res. So I will post pictures from the weekend when we get back!

VEGAS!

2009-06-22T09:21:00.000-06:00

So over the weekend we got to go down to Vegas and spend some much needed time with David's mom! It was so nice being able to relax and just shop and have fun on the strip with Davey and his mom! I couldn't help but smile at the way they look at each other after not seeing each other for so long! It was a much needed break and we loved every moment of it. On Friday we drove down kind of late and got there around 9 when we got there we went down to freemont street, David's mom had never been there and David and I have only seen it in the day time so that was fun.. Not to mention David won $60 whoo whoo! When we decided to go back to the strip the only thing that could hold all of us was a limo so we got a fun little limo ride. David and I were so tired by this time that we got something to eat and just crashed! On Saturday we walked the strip and bought a few things and I rode the New York New York with David's mom's friend Angela. That was a blast as well. Later that night we went to dinner at The Cheese Cake Factory and did a little more shopping and by the time that was all done it was already 9 so we decided to head home to get back to our dogs.. but over all it was a great trip and we can't wait till September when we get to take our week road trip up to Oregon!

Any way here is a picture of Judy David and I on Saturday while walking the strip!!

HCG DIET?

2009-06-08T16:53:00.000-06:00

So a couple of friends of mine have been doing the HCG Diet and they both look great and are loosing weight fast!! So I was totally jealous and decided to try it myself, And I HAVE LOST 8 POUNDS IN 5 DAYS!!!! that is just amazing to me! I am so thrilled!! For those of you that dont know what the HCG Diet is it is a diet that you can only eat 500 Calories a day and you can only have certain foods, No Sugar and No carbs, its very strict! And you give yourself HCG injections everyday for 40 days then you go off for 40 days and if you want start back up and do another 40 days. I am only planning on doing one cycle cause i dont have a huge amount to loose. The doctors say you should loose 1 to 2 pounds a day, I have been loosing 2-3!! I am so excited that this will be a way that I can see fast improvement and have a little more motivation to KEEP IT OFF! But any way I will post more soon! Thanks for reading!!

David's Birthday!!

2009-05-24T08:41:00.008-06:00

David's Birthday this year was a blast!! My brother and his girl friend came down and we went and hiked through zions with grandma. It was great spending time with everyone and It was such a beautiful day! He are a few pictures from the day!

Saturday night I through David a Surprise Birthday party. All of our friends and his co workers came and He was just amazed that we poled one on him. It was a wonderful night and we all had a lot of fun! here are a few pictures from the night!

David when he first walked in the door..

David's Awesome cake!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID! I LOVE YOU!

Down 7 pounds

2009-05-11T09:23:00.001-06:00

I have lost 7 pounds in the last week. I have just been watching what I eat and going on a lot of walks with David and the dogs! I am super happy that I am starting to loose. I have been drinking so much water and dont even have a diet Pepsi in my fridge! Thats huge for me! :) It has been hard watching what I eat with David cause that boy can eat anything and everything! But I guess having him eat more is a little help so there is less for me to eat! Good thing it is summer and all my favorite fruits are in season!

Any way a little up date about us.. Over the weekend we bought a King size bed at a killer deal! We got it for $199! It was used in model homes just as a show so no one has really slept on it, and the place we bought it from steamed cleaned it for us so its just like new. This bed usually runs for $900! So we got a steal!!

My Parents have been in Akumal Mexico the last week so I have been totally jealous of them and wanting to be with them!!!

On Saturday my work gave us a free gift which was a free 10 X 13 family portrait, So David and I took the Dogs with us and all 4 got our picture taken. I am excited I think it will be cute! The dogs did soo good!! Puggles just sat on my lap and Shasta sat right next to David! The did very good!!

All in all it has been a great week! We have a lot coming up in the next few months and I cant wait!! This month is David's Birthday next month is my mom and dads birthday and David's mom is coming down to Vegas so we are going to go see her! Not to mention it is Summer and we both just want to be outside playing!!

We are excited for what is to come!!

I will keep you all posted on my weight!

WAKE UP CALL!

2009-04-29T18:19:00.001-06:00

So the other day I was look at pictures from when I first moved to St. George and then I looked at a picture from last week.. OMG WHAT A WAKE UP CALL!!!! This is the comparison!! My goal is to get back to what I was when I moved here!! I know if I put my mind to Ican do it! But I cant believe I let myself get this way!! Wow!! If anyone knows of any work out plans or good diets I can try PLEASE let me know!!!!!

Home Sweet Home

2009-04-16T16:37:00.010-06:00

So I went home for the past week and had an amaizing time with all my friends and family! I got to spend easter with my family and got to relax out in the sun all day!!

My best friends from High School and I went out to dinner on Monday night and got to catch up on all the juicey gossip! I have missed all of my friends like crazy these past few months so it was gret to get to see them!!! Here is a picture we took at Mercedes house after dinner!!

Then on Tuesday night Shannon and I went to the Britney Spears concert. WHICH ROCKED!!! I loved every minute of it!! SO worth it!! We were right by the stage it was awesome!! Here are a few pictures from the concert!

I Loved seeing Britey!! It was an Awesome Show!!!

All in all it was a great weekend and much needed!!! Thank you to all my family and friends!! Love you all!!

My poor puppy!

2009-04-01T18:21:00.002-06:00

So ever since we got Puggles we knew something was wrong with her hip but the other night she was laying under my recliner and I didn't realize it so when I went to get up I hit her with the foot stool.. She yipped really bad and wouldn't walk on her leg, so I took her to the vet to get an x ray and I found out my poor puppy has a broken hip. We are going to wait and see if it will heal itself in the next month but if it doesn't she will need SURGERY!!! :( So now she has to be in the kennel when we are gone to work and has to walk around with a bandage on her leg..

Happy little Family!

2009-03-30T10:58:00.002-06:00

So yesterday we took Puggles to the dog park for the first time and that was just a blast! It was way cute to watch her run and play with all the other dogs. When we got home we tried to take pictures of the 3 of us but puggles thought the flash was a bug or something so everytime we would take a picture of her she would jump at the camera trying to attack it! It was cute! But we ended up getting this picture!! Which I love!! Puggles looks so mad though.. lol!

Even though its not smart with me being sick and all.. but any way here are some pictures of us loven the snow!

Sick Sick Sick

2008-12-11T10:17:00.000-07:00

So I have been filling sick for a couple months and this week I got a lot worse so I finally gave in and went to the doctor, just to find out that one I have PNEUMONIA, and on top of that I have bacteria in my blood causeing ulcers and something else wrong with my pancrease that makes it so that now I have to avoid all grease, fried, and fatty foods.. h well maybe that will be a easy way to loose all that weight I have wanted to lose! So anyway I am now on 3 antibiotics, prevacid, and an inhaler. fun stuff! I just hope I will feel better before christmas!

2008-11-01T10:21:00.003-06:00

So for Halloween we didnt want to spend a lot of money on costumes so I wore my Lil' Bo Peep costume from last year and we made david his costume. We glued cottom balls to an old shirt and said he way my sheep. It seemed to give everyone a good laugh. But we had a good night hanging out with friends and each other!

Pummpkins Pumpkins Pumpkins..

2008-10-25T08:59:00.003-06:00

David and I were looking for some cheap entertainment so we went and bought a couple more pumpkins and a carving kit. And spent the night carving. It was fub and good to just hang out together!

Pumpkins

2008-10-12T15:22:00.008-06:00

My mom and dad bought dave and I some pumpkins a few weeks ago and dave has been wanting to carve his so he finally decided to do it today, It was funny to watch him.. His facial expressions where hilarious when he was gutting it out. My mom bought me a cute Mr. Potato head kit for pumpkins last year and so my pumpkin was a little easier to do.. But all in all it was fun!

David hard at work!!

2008-09-30T15:13:00.000-06:00

And that means dave and I can spend more time together we are soo excited and even more excited that we will be able to go home for the holidays now!! YAY!

Trip to Zions

2008-09-02T08:58:00.005-06:00

So on monday we called grandma up and asked if she would want to go hike through Zions. It was a great day. We went on a couple of trails and had a really good time! We love getting out doors.. and love spending time with Grandma! Thanks Gram!!

Ha climbing up the rock was easy getting down was a little hard..
The out doors always bring the kid out in Dave.. He is soo cute.. My little monkey!
We love messing around and making faces.. it was a really great day!!
We love being able to spend time with Grandma and its nice that we have somewhere so Beautiful to Spend time together!
Ha so Dave went down into a bowl in the mountain by a pool of water.. and had a little bit of a hard time getting back out!

David is such a cheese.. Always striking a pose..

We hiked the lower Emeralds pool..The sights are all so beatiful!

Dave and I hiked up to weeping Rock.. It was only a mile hike but SO worth it! the water falls were soo pretty and felt nice!! and The view was breath taking!!

Grandma wanted to get her feet went while we hiked Weeping Rock!

It was a great day and a great way to spend time with each other! we had a wonderful time! Thanks again Gram!!

Our First pet

2008-08-31T12:41:00.003-06:00

So We decided that we got tired of not being able to have a pet so we asked our landlord if a Guinea Pig would be ok... and she said YES! YAY! so we hurried over to the pet store and picked out the cutest one! We couldnt pick a name but just call him baby! It is funny to watch him run around and play with us! He has surprisingly entertained us a lot! and its cute to watch Dave take care of him.. He treats him like he is a real baby! It is fun and never lonely when one of us is gone.. He is a big ball of fur and his hair is crazy! Im glad we got him!!

Davids last fire

2008-08-18T12:22:00.000-06:00

David went on his last fire in Manti. His crew was gone for 4 days. The location of the fire was in a bowl in the mountains so he and his crew had to be flown in by helicopter. David loved being able to drive the big trucks and was sad to call this his last fire but was givin a great position with Mount Olympus Water. Fire will always be his first love but we are excited for his new career.

Growing up stinks..

2008-08-11T13:42:00.001-06:00

So our place has been great until.... I freaking fridge stops working.. we had about $200 worth of food and it was all going to go bad!! We had just bought eggs and milk and we have come to learn that that stuff isnt cheap!! anywho so we called our landlord and she told us we needed to wait till morning for anything to be done so to keep the fridge door shut.. yeah ok so dont eat or drink anything right?? SO anyways I had worked the night before and when I got home Dave had to go to work so I decided to stay up till they brought us a new fridge, thinking they would come at like 8.. oh no they dont show until 10:30!! Then the freaking fridge that they bring us is like half the size of our other one so all of our stuff barely fit in it!! Then they said they had to mount this piece of counter top on and that they will be right back.. so i strated to clean the new fridge (which was sooo gross!!!!) and the freaking guy doesnt show back up to mount the countertop until freaking quarter to 12 then he takes an hour to do it! so by now I am just exhausted and like what ever looks like I just wont sleep at all today.. Uhg... this day has to be like the most exhausting day ever and all I did was sit on my butt and wait for the darn guy to do his job!!!!!!!

All Settled in..

2008-08-04T08:27:00.002-06:00

We are getting all Settled into our new home and love spending more time with each other! we love our home and are very excited for the future!!

Davids First Utah fire

2008-06-29T19:01:00.000-06:00

The first Fire dave got to fight here in Utah was in Escalante.. He was out for about 4 days. 16 hours a day... OUCH!! when they go out on these fires they dont usually have access to showers or electricity. So they get a "shower in a bag" in other words over sized baby wipes.. so he was a little dirty.. We were ezcited to see each other.. even though he was ready for a shower...

A little about David and Charlie

2008-06-20T03:48:00.000-06:00

We have been together since Janurary 2, 2008. David is from Oregon and moved to Utah a month after meeting me. He is a wild land fire fighter, and loves every bit about it. He loves going on adventures and taking chances. He is known as "Danger Dave". I am from Salt Lake and moved to St. George after graduating high school to attend Dixie State College. I am planning on starting Nursing school next year and am very excited. David and I love the life we have made together and cant wait to spend eternity together!
