Arbon

Drews folks live in Arbon valley, i love going out there because its nice and quite and the view is wonderful..and there is no cell service out there so nobody can find you!

Steve and Cass

My father-in-law and his mutt!! Cass is a spolied little puppy! Can you tell that she gets away with murder:)

We went out to Arbon on Christmas Eve and i was looking through some pictures on my mother-in-laws computer and i found these!!



This is a picture of a car that drew had when he was in high schoo;! pretty SWEET!!!




WATCH OUT!! I am a dang good shot!

AHHHH!!

So i have been having this pain in my side for a few months now, i thought it was nothing because i would take some tylenol and it would go away. Well yesterday this pain started at like 10am, of course i thought it was nothing and took some tylenol. The pain didnt go away and it seemed to be getting worse. I got home for work and drew tells me "you lay down and relax, dont move out of bed." (what an awesome husband i have!) So anyways he cooks dinner, and takes care of me for the next few hours. Around 10:30 i was getting ready to go to bed, i rolled over on my belly to go to sleep and there was this awful pain but really bad this time. So i was talking to drew and it hurt so bad i was crying, well i called my mom and that just made me more upset. I couldnt catch my breath and everytime i would breath this sharp pain would get worse. So we ended up going to the Emergency Room. Well 4 hrs, lots of morphine and several tests later they still dont know what is wrong. They are pretty sure that it has to do with my gallbladder but they are not positive. I have to do one more test sometime tomorrow to see if my gallbladder is functioning the way it is supposed to. If not then eventually i will have to have to thing taken out... To make matters even more interesting we got homw around 230, and at 3 our doorbell rings, its logan. He had gone to a friends house to play xbox with his cousin, he said he was going around a corner and with his tires and the ice he slid into a curb. He hit his back left tire on the curb and bent or broke something, who knows what he did--- So he left the car at our house, took the blazer and went back to his aunts house in pocatello. Guess we will find out what he did to it tomorrow. WEll its been a crazy 24hrs. Hope you all have a very merry christmas!! Love you all

Brooke and her family!!

Some pictures taken of my sister and her family!!

Salmon Run!!

So--My parents went up to Salmon to help my dads cousin with a cattle sale, why they were there they took some really cool pictures!! Enjoy

CrazyLife-*-

Well---- Life has been pretty busy for us the last little while, I have spent the last week in Boise at Basic Dispatch Post, and Drew had to go to McCall on Wednesday and so his captain dropped him off at post and we waited for my parents to get here for the weekend. They came up and we went and stayed in a hotel for the weekend. We ended up doing a little bit of christmas shopping this weekend which will be nice not to have to stress out about things right before Christmas is here. I still have one week left before i graduate so i wont be home until this coming Friday. Then i have to work saturday and sunday (Ughhh-- cant ever catch a break! lol)Then i have monday-wednesday off, then i have to work Thanksgiving and the day after, So we will be going out to Drews parents house i think tuesday night and staying there wednesday. We will do a small thanksgiving dinner there and then when i get off work on thursday we will go out to my family party. We are still not quite sure if we will have Logan and Landon yet, things are still kinda up in the air on that one!!

With it being this time of year and all i figured i would say that i am so Thankful for my Husband, he is such a wonderful man and he would do anything that i asked of him. He is talented in so many different fields and i am do happy to be his wife!! I am also so very thankful to have so a wonderful family that is continually growing! I am thankful for the gospel in my life, I never realized until about a year and a half ago how much it really means to me. I have been fortunate enough to find someone who can take me to the temple and that i will be with for eternity!!

He is growing up

So, I finally had a chance to go and watch my brother play football. I have missed every other game due to the fact that i have been working nights. Well, all i can say is that he is growing up and i dont like it. It makes me feel way to old! Other than that he did an awesome Job. He plays for the Blackfoot Broncos freshman football team, and he is their kicker. He can kick the ball like 50yds, thats crazy. I guess it comes from all those years of playing soccer. He also got an interception that he was mighty proud of. He came running off the field hitting his helmet and screaming "I told you I could do it."

So the news!!

So i went to the doctor yesterday and he told me that our best bet of having children is to do invetro. He said that it cost anywhere from $10,000 - $12,000 just to walk through the front door. So as soon as we get a house sold and get our bills in line we will start saving so we can have little ones!!

Speaking of the house-- things are going well in that dept, we have had a few calls on it and we actually have a couple coming to look at the house on monday!!YA!! hopefully it will work out and we will have the baby sold:):):)

As soon as i get the pictures from the wedding from my sister i will post some of the whole family--so long for now!!

Some pictures of the Family!

So, for all of you who would like to know the updates in our life here it goes. Logan has moved to live with his mom for a little while, she got him an internship in boise at the company which she works for, he says he will only be there for a month but we will see. He seems to really like it over, except landon has had to learn to share the house a little bit. He was not very happy at first to hear that he was headed over there but they seem to be getting along ok, that is because logan picks up landon from school everyday in his NEW car!! Logan just got a new car that he is mighty proud of. He got a pretty good deal on it, its a 2004 dodge neon,blk with blk leather seats and a sunroof.. he is pretty excited! Now he has to grow up and start making payments--YUCK!!

We put a for sale by owner sign in front of the house yesterday, and by 6pm that night we had one person call on it and another stopped by. I am so hoping that it is out of our hair soon. The carpet people are supposed to be there first thing monday morning to put in the new carpet. Then all we have left to do is a few minor details on the inside then paint the outside. So its almost done!!!

Things are going crazy with work right now, drew works day shift and i am on graves until thanksgiving so we dont get to see much of each other right now which sucks:( I know how summer feels to a point with not havin a husband around, not that drews not around i just never get to see him between work and the house.

So now for some better news, I go to the doctor on wednesday to find out what we need to do to get pregnant. We are not sure what they are going to tell us but hopefully it wont be to difficult to get the job done. We are so excited to have a little one that its driving me crazy, there are either pregnant ladies of little babies everywhere you look. We will keep everyone updated on what we find out.

I hope that everyone is doing well, havent had a chance to see anybody and it makes me sad!! Just know that we love you!!

Its been awhile since i gave anyone an update on how things are going, Logan turned the big 18 last week and thinks he is a man now...lol! He is still working on his grandparents cabin in island park sounds like it is coming along pretty good. He is in the process of trying to get a loan to buy him this little hot rod that he found. Landon, well he is landon that for sure, he is getting ready to start school i believe on the 25th of August i dont think he is ready to go back, he is starting to freak out already, he says Junior year is the hardest--What i would give to go back to high school and not have any responsibility!lol-- He is bound and determined to get the thunderbird over to boise as soon as logan gets his new car. They start 4-H next week, this is logans last year and landon says it is his too, i guess we will see about that.

So we are making little progress on the old house, we still have to paint the walls in the kitchen, and the one wall in the boys room. We have to finish the cabinets and put down tile. WE thought we might have had it sold as is, but that plan of course fell through. So now we still have to buy carpet--YUCK-- and paint the outside. We have alot to do still but its coming along slowly- and slowly is right!
So if anyone knows anyone who wants to buy a house-- send them our way!!

Drew and I are leaving today after i get off of work and we are headed to San Antonio, for a week. It will be so nice to get away but its going to be so freakin hott!I will post pictures when i get back!

On August 21, 2007 my grandpa passed away due to cancer, at the time of his death my grandma was not active in the church and my grandpa was catholic. Well on August 21 of this year we are going through the temple so my grandma and grandpa can be sealed to each other.My mom will also be sealed to them. My little brother is goning to be baptized for him. I was lucky enough when i went through the temple and received my endowments that i got to go through with my grandma when she received hers. It has been a life changing experience for me. I never thought in a million years that this is where i would end up. I am so thankful for this wonderful gift in my life. I am so thankful for the wonderful family that i have and the wonderful family that i have now became a part of! I love you all!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and i will post some pictures when i get back from vacation!!

This is for Summer

So Summer was making fun of me because i have not updated my blog in a really long time. Life has been pretty crazy lately. With Drew and I both working full time and trying to get the old house ready to sale it seems like we have no time. We are getting closer on the house, all the walls are painted except the walls in kitchen. The old carpet is pulled up and the nasty floor in the kitchen is pulled up too. Drew worked really hard the last few days and got the new windows and the new sliding door in. We are getting closer and i cant wait til we are done with that house. I want to tell everyone that has come and helped thanks so much, we could not have done it with out you!!! Shancey! That little baby will be here soon-- I am so jealous and summer i think that it is time for you to have another one!! Anyways have a good day!!

Here are some more pictures

I am a LUSK!

There is so much to say!! So, i know its a little late but i am offically a lusk! After 10 months of waiting it has now come and gone and I cant believe that it is over. The wedding went really well lots of family was there! It was a long day for sure, and my dress wasnt very comfortable. We got the pictures that my mom and Dad took and if i can figure out how to put them on here i will post some. Logan is graduated now and is working in pocatello putting up a indoor arena at the fairgrounds. He is working anywhere from 10-14 hour days! This job is supposed to last about 3 weeks then he will go to Island Park to help build his grandparents cabin. Then i think the plan is to attend ISU this fall. Its good for him! Welcome to the real world!! We are headed to pick up landon tonight after drew gets off work. He will be with us all summer, him and his new puppy. From what i am understanding he might have a job working at mckees in pocatello.
