FINALLY!

Yeah! A new post! Sorry I have been extremely busy and well the internet hasn't been working at our apartment since January. So now that I am home in Utah I can finally get a post up. Some new news... no we aren't pregnant, but we are finally home in Utah. I finally graduated from MSU with a B.A. in Chemistry, and a B.S. in Corporate Fitness. Also.... WE MADE IT INTO THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH! We are finally going to be UTES! I feel very blessed for the opportunity to have made it into the Pharm D program at the U. Schyler still has a few things to do until he gets his Bachelors but he is well on his way. I am so proud of him and love how he has supported me over all these years. Only four more babe and then I can return the favor!:)

My parents, little sister, and her son came up! I have to thank them for traveling that far and for helping us out with the move! Here's a few pics of the graduation!
We had my graduation party at plant pizza so all the little kids could play and enjoy themselves. I really enjoyed spending time with my friends and family those last few days we were in Minot. Schy and I are going to miss the people very much (maybe not so much the town and not the weather at all!) I have to say that I truly found some great friends and appreciate the love and support we received while we were there. It was a great learning, and growing experience. Someone once told me the church is true no matter where you are. This is so true and I came to understand what it really means to go to a "family" ward. Everyone was a family out there and the strength and unity felt was unlike any other. I really will miss that!
On our way home we made a few stops. Our first stop was the reptile garden which had tons of snakes. They even had a 15 ft. 5 in crocodile!

This is Daxen and me petting a snake. I couldn't believe that he did this with me cause he was a little scared when we went in!
Ever wonder what we would look like a munchkins? Well here ya go:)


We then went to Bear country. This place was awesome. At first you drive in and see some different animals. We saw wolfs, mountain goats, cougars, and of course bears. When you get the section with bears. There was one bear at the entrance who would not let you in. He would guard the gate going back and forth back and forth. It was hilarious. this is the bear
At the exit there were two. That would only go half way, almost like passing the guarding off to the other bear. They of course were going back and forth. So exiting was impossible. It wasn't until one of them left that we made it through. Then you can go to a section where you can see the babies. The cubs were adorable!
We then went to see some caves. This was awesome. It was crazy to see some of God's "hidden" artwork. We then went to Mount Rushmore. This was a neat experience! It was awesome to see that someone actually carved these faces out and without the technology we have today. Here are a few pics from Mount Rushmore.
This picture is taken with all the love we have! haha jk

WE HAVE LOST OUR COOKIES!

So we saw this activity on America's Funniest Videos and decided to try it out for ourselves. I hope you can laugh at us just as much as we did at each other! haha So it wouldn't load up to big, but you can go to our facebook page and see it! IT IS HILARIOUS!

Summer Vaca

We finally made it back to Utah but it went by way to fast for our liking! We start our vacation with a family trip to the living aquarium ( I kept calling it a planitarium... oops lol) The coolest thing there was the sting rays and penguins. I loved spending time with the fam! Carter wasn't so willing to let us take his pic :) Dax loved watching the sting rays and Daws loved the penguins and kept asking me what does this say what does this say :)

My family reunion was on our first year anniversary. Haha but it was awesome. We played flog where Schyler and I became the champs and went four wheeling. Dawson was awesome on the four wheeler! We had so much fun!

My cousin killed this badger. It was near the wood pile outside of my grandparents cabin.

It was our anniversary and Schyler tried to surprise me with this room. We stayed at this hotel and saw this room on our honeymoon it was amazing. The bed was huge, Schy almost fell trying to get up. lol

The following week we went with Schyler's family camping at Pineview Resevoir. This has become a family tradition and was an exciting year. Schyler was finally able to ski somewhat (he's hurt his back so he's had to take it easy) after three summers of not skiing (last summer he had shoulder surgery). He's shoulder did hold up. This is him showing off his moves.

This is me trying to copy my husband lol I didn't do so well

The last morning we got up to ski D-rel got smacked by the ski, it wasn't happy he was trying to show off to us all. lol jk

This is the whole gang eating at the Oaks. We eat here every year after a week of camping.

After the week of camping we went to Mesquite with my family and decided to have a little competition amongst the group. Meesha and Schyler were a team. There team name was Scheesh. My mother and Stevie were a team and they were known as Razzeam. My dad and I were a team and dominated as Do-Uglee:) We had a blast and won bowling because my dad scored a 193 on his last game. he was on fire!

Schyler and I finally were able to eat our top of our wedding cake. It actually wasn't to bad, a little dry but it wasn't to bad.

This is my BEAUTFIUL grandmother.

This is my awesome nephew Daxen. The night before I left I taught him to give the "dirty look" and this is the creation. Isn't he freak'n hilarious? haha he was a stud

We wish we were still in Utah spending time with our family but we only have a year left of school and hopefully that will fly by with ease. We did get our air conditioner installed which is AWESOME! Schyler wasn't the happiest guy putting it in but he did an amazing job and I am so happy I have a cold house. i don't know if I was going to be able to last another day! I love it!
