My Summer Job!

I loved teaching kids to swim, it was the best job ever. Probably because it didn't ever feel like work.

It was alway rewarding the first time they jumped into the deep end.

It was really fun being able to work with Caleb all summer. He was a great swim teacher and the kids all love him. It is something that probably won't ever get to happen again but I'm so happy that we got to spend time at work together!
If teaching little kids wasn't enough I got to teach water aerobics! I used to think water aerobics was just for people with bad joints but I was wrong. That was probably the best shape I have ever been in. It was so much fun to work out with the ladies and push them to get stronger and stronger. I hope I will have the chance to do something like this again. And thanks to all my ladies who stood by even when I made them tread water when they thought they couldn't do anything else!!

I planned a fun date on the one year anniversary of when Jacob and I met.

It included a few of my favorite dating memories.

First it was in the same place we had our first date. It brought back memories of how 'missionary like' Jacob was that night and how far away he kept the whole time.

I made a huge cookie with Ice cream on it.

(The same thing we did the second or third

time we ever spent time together)

It did look like a heart, be I didn't

think to get a picture before we started to eat it.

And we can't forget the countless number of sunsets we watched together.

So most of you have probably given up hope of another post ever popping up on this blog but here I will prove you all wrong. But you should probably not hold your breath for the next one, so ENJOY!

Over the summer I got to go on one of Jacob's river trips. We went down Desolation Canyon and it was amazing, not only the canyon but getting to see my Honey at work! Man he is a tough man!

Whipped cream eating contest, I could have won but his mouth is bigger!

Jacob working hard to feed all of us!

It was a once in a lifetime fun time!

A look at Jacob's training in Westwater Canyon

The Watchmen in Westwater Canyon...eerie looking dude!

Just put in for Westwater, I was hoping i would live to see another day at this point.

I somehow survived Westwater Canyon....YEEEHAAW! (VIDEO)

Spring Break turned into a long road trip to visit Jacob's hick roots, this is what the trip amounted to:

Ashley giving...directions?

Somewhere in Texas.

Royal Gorge!

Tough Cowboys.

Ashley the Logger :)

Jacob the Climber :)

Love in a Trunk.

She thinks my tractor's sexy!


We had a blazin' good time with our grandparents, parents, and uncles!


As you can see most of the trip was spent clearing land, and getting poison ivy, haha, but we had a blast. We saw Cashion, where Jacob grew up, its a small town, smaller than our backyard, well almost. If you blink you'll miss it. We had good food at the restaurants around Oklahoma, the old family favorites, Blue Moon (chinese), CiCi's (pizza), Eishen's (best fried chicken and okra) - they came out with pickles, bread, and onions, no plates, fried chicken (yummy!), and fried okra, we also ate at Pops, a nostalgic restaurant built on Historic Route 66. It was a great trip, and we were sad to leave, but life goes on!

THE BLOG....

So here I sit, Ashley away taking a test, with the assignment of fixing the blog. IT can be frustrating, I know I am a noob at this, but hey it looks decent now, and we have good music you can listen to now, so be happy! Well I don't have much else to say, it's the weekend, so maybe i'll get caught up on homework, but be excited Ashley and I are off to Oklahoma next week so that should provide a great post on the blog!

Ashley is embarassed, so I am writing this. Anyway, I was down in Cedar City visiting her and we were bored so we went on a date to a fun tepinyaki (however you spell that) restaurant then having no money, we decided to go play "dress-up" at walmart. I chose this lovely outfit for her to put on, the other pictures show a more wild side of Ashley (i'll let you use your imagination) but she got lucky with this one, it was a great date, cheap, fun, and has provided laughs even now. :)
