Random Pics

Keith (my brother) and Noah bowling (2008). Noah is loves bowling and is pretty good, especially with bumpers!




A little bowling blooper. If you notice, Noah has changed the rules in bowling to more of a soccer game. Watch for the kick! Surprisingly enough, I think he actually knocked down some pins.




Last summer we went to Oregon. This is just a random shot in our rental car.



My mom, me, Steph, and Liz---da girls!




I have no idea who those two freaks are!?! ;)

Weekend with Grandma & Grandpa Hobbs

May 29 - June 1 (Fri.-Mon.) we spent the weekend up to Island Park with Calvin's grandparents. Grandma & Grandpa Hobbs are great! They taught us (or let's say they tried to teach us) how to golf, a nearly impossible task. Yet, we enjoyed it and had some good laughs as we came out nearly doubling par.


Sunday, we went to West Yellowstone and saw a lot of buffalo with their kids, a few bald eagles, 2 elk, and geese. It was great. We also saw the hot pots or should I say smelt the stink pots (smell like rotten eggs). Old Faithful was still faithful, but it was a cooler day, so we could hardly see the water because the steam was so thick. We had a very productive and fun weekend. We love Grandma and Grandpa!

Conference Weekend

On Saint Patrick's Day, Easton was born (on the left). These are my two new nephews (Easton & Ethan). They are so cute. For General Conference, we went to my folks' house. What a wonderful time we had. Earlier this week, we helped my sister-in-law's family, Nicole & Jason, move into their new home. It will be such a nice home for them. I am also excited because we may get to plant some garden in their backyard! Haha. It is funny what you miss out on when you live in an apartment. Well, that's about it for now.Okay! So really funny--Calvin is not a baby person. He refuses to hold, tend, or play with a baby. BUT we tricked him. My mom was holding Easton and had to go do something. Calvin, being the only one around at that time, was handed Easton. Calvin felt pretty picked on. I think deep down inside, he really enjoyed playing/holding him. :)

About this picture:

This is when Calvin and I were starting to date back in 2007. We decided to climb Table Rock with Derrick Christensen and Adam Young. It was so much fun but very exhausting. When we would struggle and want to take a break, Calvin kept telling us that we were almost there. Yah right! Come to find out, we weren't even half way there. I laugh about it now, but then I wanted to strangle him. :) What's great about this picture is that the Tetons are right behind us. Oh what a beautiful sight it was. I love hiking and look forward to going this summer.

Spring Break

So we didn't go anywhere exotic for spring break, but I did get to spend time both with Calvin's and my family. I love being an aunt. Calvin has been busy selling life insurance and loving every minute of it. I am working at a preschool and looking forward to being a teacher in a year and a half when I graduate. Well, that's about it for us. Oh yah! Liz, Joel, Calvin, and I went to the last USU basketball game against San Jose. It was rockin'! It was actually the first basketball game Calvin and I had ever been to here at Utah State. We are such slackers.

A New Nephew!

So, Liz (my sis) & Joel had their baby. Ethan is the cutest. We went and visited her that night in the hospital. It was so much fun to hold a baby. Don't worry! I'm not baby hungry...yet. I am such a proud aunt of 2 nephews and one on the way (due in April) on my side and 11 nieces and nephews on Calvin's. I love spoiling them rotten!

Our 1st Anniversary

1st Anniversary! I can't believe it's been a year since Calvin and I got hitched. Wow! For our anniversary, we went to West Yellowstone. It was so much fun. We bought some homemade candies from a cute shop and watched movies, looked around some shops, and got sick. Yah! Can you believe that? Calvin decided to get sick on me-stomach flu. We had a fun drive home, let me tel you. I will post some pictures in a little while from our trip. Sinara!

A New Template!

I am so happy. I just barely figured out how to make my own templates. Yes! I am behind, I know. Well, I got this cute paper and stuff from shabbyprincess.com and I love it. I will be making my own templates from now on. Yippee!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Christmas was spent at my parents this year. We had a great time. I wasn't quite sure what to get Calvin for Christmas, but I knew he wanted a toy, so I got him Star Wars Legos. Who doesn't like Legos, come on? In return, Calvin gave me the movie "North & South" and a beautiful, red guitar (ok, I picked out the guitar, but I love it!). We played games and ate a lot of goodies. Christmas was great.

On Saturday the 27th of December, we went to Maddox's in Brigham City and ate with all of Calvin's extended family (the Hobbs). It was fun to see everyone. We went on a wagon ride to see the lights in Willard. They were awesome; I wish I had some pictures.

For New Years, we hung out with my sister-in-law and her fam. We played games and had a fun time playing the Bean Game and Clue. That's about all. On Monday, Calvin and I start school again. Oh! I got a job working at a preschool. I will only work 10-20 hours depending on when they need me, but I am psyched. Well, tah tah for now!
