Work in Progress

Man a basement takes a long time to finish. It seams like we have been painting for 2 weeks straight. Here are some pictures of our progress.















Stay tuned we are almost finished!!!!!!!!

ISU Basketball Game

Mitch thought it would be fun to go to a college basketball game so he bought tickets to the ISU vs NAU game on Saturday. When we got there the gym was smaller than a high school game so it was pretty unimpressive. It was still pretty fun though. Check out the pictures.

Basketball Gym is so small


Fun dance team


Gotta love Pocatello. Yeah that's a 10 year old boy with a mullet!!!

Drywall for the Basement

We had the drywall hung in the basement on Feb 26th and 27th. I can't believe they put it up so fast; it only took them about 9 hours and there were only 2 guys hanging. It looks great. See for yourself.

Cirque Le Masque

Don't ask me how to say it, but it was awesome! A couple of weeks ago Mitch and I went to the Cirque Le Masque. It was just like Cirque Du Soleil in Vegas. We had a blast and they did such a good job. We highly recommend it. Here are some pictures.

Work in Progress

In the middle of January Papa John came to help us(Mitch) do the electrical, HVAC, and framing on our basement. I tried to help but almost shot a nail through Mitch's head with the nail gun so I decided to take pictures instead. We are so grateful for Papa John and his unending knowledge and time. We love him so much! Thanks again! Here are some pics.




This is the one I did; notice the "perfect nail job"

The Holidays

I feel so bad that I haven't posted in forever! I just haven't felt like it! So we had the best time this Christmas Season. We were able to see all of our families and spend time with them. To start the holidays off we had an Ugly Sweater Party with a bunch of our friends. We just had tons and tons of yummy treats, and played a couple of games. Then we went to Arizona for Christmas with the Transtrum's . It was so much fun! (Seriously Chelsea I am coming every year!) The weather was perfect, it was absolutely gorgeous, we even went swimming. Ok, not everyone and yes it was cold or so I heard. Then we went to Utah to have a second Christmas with my family and to start the new year with them. I love going to the Cabin and spending time with the family! All the amazing food, treats, games/scum, movies, Rock Band, could it get any better! I was sad that we weren't able to see my grandparents, hopefully we will see them soon, hint hint. We also went snowboarding. It was a blast, I was sad to come back to the freezing cold, tons of snow and back to regular boring old life. But Spring Break is in only a few short months so Hawaii here we come, hopefully. I am so sad Lindsey and Pike are in Hawaii, and we probably won't see them for 2 years. Just kidding Pike I know you will come back and visit, remember every other 6 months. Can't wait to see you guys! Anyway here are some pictures of the month. I wish we would have taken more, but I totally forgot and I forgot to take pics at the cabin, so sorry fam!

Oh and Happy New Year to everyone!Oh and the pictures are not in order, sorry!

Kristin's B-Day

Kristin's Birthday was yesterday and all last month or so she thought. it was actually fun treating her like the birthday girl all month long. She turned 23 and she is so gorgeous. I gave her a surprise party at Olive Garden with all our friends and then we all came back to our house and ate cake and ice cream. We then went to see Eagle Eye; great movie. Happy Birthday Krissy; I love you.

Vinyl Lettering

We got some Vinyl lettering to make our house look a little more classy. What do you think?

Halloween

Here's our exciting Halloween!!! We are very boring we just carved a pumpkin, went to the Trick or Treat Street, came home and watched a scary movie and then went to bed. The Trick or Treat Street is a huge thing that Idaho Falls does for the kids, it's a safe way to trick or treat, it's like the Mormon Trunk or Treat! Anyway Mitch's company signed up for it so Mitch and I went and decorated an RV, and then passed out candy to the children as they walked by. There were tons and tons of kids, and we went through probably 10 huge bags of candy, like 10 pound bags. It was insane. It was nice though because someone sponsored the candy so we didn't have to pay for any of it, when I say we I mean Mitch's company.


Trick or Treat Street, it looked a lot better up close,
