Hiking

So Ry and I today went hiking. It was a lot of fun. We went to I guess it's part of South Mountain. It was a short one. We were able to make it to the top in an hour. Yes I know, it was a short hike. We are so out of shape, it was a good starter.

While we were hiking we found a little bag on the road that had a little bag of poop. Some one packed up the poop and then just left it on the road. People are so weird. (just in case you are wondering we pick it up and threw it away)

Another thing, once we got to the top every one behind us was coming up too. There was a good looking couple that was just a few min behind us. I must say...that girl was showing way too much. She was practically wearing some booty short underwear. I could see her butt hanging out. It was really inappropriate. The guy was not any better....he had his shirt off showing off the many tats he had. They are very interesting to say the least.

Well I guess that is about it. Have a fab day!

Primary....

So I got a calling in Primary teaching the Valiant 10. Today was my turn to teach and I had 13 kids today. It was insane to keep them all sitting down and then we discovered that we did not have enough chairs so some were sitting on the floor. Some kids are great, but some had really loud voices. I love them though, they are all very smart. I love Primary and all the fun things they do and the sweet little spirits they have. I am so blessed to have them!

New Tag

Ok, so we got Freedom a new name tag....well, it is her first name tag. She was so uncomfortable with it and it kept on making these clinking sounds. She was so funny. I really have nothing else to say about it, just watch the clip.

Coyotes Game

I guess I could have blogged bout this a long time ago, but Ryan and I went to a Coyotes game. At Ry's job QT, every week you can enter your name and they do a raffle for a game or something of a perk. Well Ry's name was picked and we got tickets. I did not realized how expensive these games are. I mean we did not pay anything for it but the price is on the ticket. These are $100 a piece!

It was really fun, we did not get totally into it though. I guess Ry and I are not huge on other sports like hockey. It was fun watching them creaming eachother though. Actually, it was really really fun. We got to cheer when they score and everything. We did not get to stay for the whole game cuz I had to work the next day. It was a fun experience though.

PS. we were like the hottest people there.

First trip of the season:Snowboarding

It was a blast! We went to Snowbowl in Flagstaff and it was def a good first trip. The snow was wonderful, lots of powder. We left early Sat. morning and Jared drove. We did not get any pictures so this one was one that I got off the website.

I must say that Snowbowl is realy really small, much smaller then Sunrise. Since I did not go a whole lot last season I was able to pick myself up and start learning again. I think I am comfortable enough to do some jumps next time. I love snowboarding so much, I wish Ryan enjoy it too. :(

I was sad that Ryan could not go. He had to work the night before and the night after. I was sad and I missed him a lot. He was so sweet, when I got to my car to drive home Ryan had left a wonderful note that he missed me and love me so much with a lil bag of Ghirardelli chocolate. He is such a wonderful husband.

Oh, and Jared and Ashely was on 15 news. I guess they were doing a report on the snow on opening day. So Jared and Ashley was on TV. What else....Bryce and Tyler was ripping it up. Scott biffed it a lot. Tyler was interestingly enough to fall while in line for the lift. haha. that was so funny. The End

Christmas Fun!

This is Ryan playing with Freedom. She is loving the attention :)
Ryan is dancing with Freedom so she can have a piece of orange. That little sucker loves cuties.
This is our Christmas tree. It is more fun to look at in person.
Ryan and I made some Christmas stockings for our lil family. One for Ryan, Freedom, and Sunny. It took me so much longer to make these then I thought, but they turned out pretty good. Here is a close up.
Here is a story for you that I got from Wiki about Christmas stockings. Enjoy!

"While there are no written records of the origin of the Christmas stocking, there are popular legends that attempt to tell the history of this Christmas tradition. One such legend has several variations, but the following is a good example:

Long ago, there lived a poor man and his three beautiful daughters. He had no money to get his daughters married, and he was worried what would happen to them after his death.

Saint Nicholas was passing through the village when he over heard the discussion of some villagers who were talking about the situation of the three girls. St. Nicholas wanted to help them, but he knew that the old man won't accept charity. He decided to help in secret. He waited util it was night and crept into their house through the chimney.

He had three bags of gold coins with him, one for each girl. As he was looking for a place to keep those three bags, he noticed stockings of the three girls that were hung over the mantelpiece for drying. He put one bag in each stocking and off he went. When the girls and their father woke up the next morning, they found the bags of gold coins and were of course, overjoyed. The girls were able to get married and live happily ever after.

The word about St. Nicholas being so generous spread throughout the village and then all over the land.

^[1]This led to the custom of children hanging stockings or putting out shoes, eagerly awaiting gifts from Saint Nicholas. Sometimes the story is told with gold balls instead of bags of gold. That is why three gold balls, sometimes represented as oranges, are one of the symbols for St. Nicholas. And so St. Nicholas is a gift-giver."

Home sweet Home

***this is not my house, its a house that we want but now sold***

ok so here is the news. Ryan and I are looking for a house to live in perminantly. We have a huge problem as to live in the city or live in QC. Here is the dilema, people say that for first time home buyers they are only in their first home around 5 years. (keep that in mind)

city-less house, older house, but value will go up faster

QC-more house, new house, take longer for value to go up. (10-15 years)

i dont know what i want to do. i work in phoenix, ryan works ....where ever. we want a nice house but then if we move in about 5 years QC might not be worth it. I dont know....what do you think?
