New Things

Well since I last posted it is still snowing which makes me a little irritated.  And Colter bought me an elliptical that I love and use all the time.  Also Colter has decided that school is overrated and that he wants the summer off so play.  So he bought a boat.  It is a PROJECT boat so lots of work needs to be done but he is so excited about it I can't hardly be mad.  SO I dont have pictures of anything just a quick update with lots of fun to come when summer starts.  Love you all!!

Behind the Power Curve

SO Colter informed me that I am way behind the Power CURVE when I post these things late...but my philosophy is better late than never.  So those that have facebook have seen our newest addition Sage Dog the border collie rescue.  She is a bit more furry than I would have liked but she needed someone to love her and well there she be.  Now we dont know what we would do without her, and well I just sweep everyday it seems. 
On another note, Cummins the crazy cat is also back from being incarcerated.  But I told him that he cant have anymore jail time so he is officially on House Arrest.  He was totally fine with that until the snow melted and now all he wants to do is go outside.  He actually finds it rather unfair that Morgan and Sage can go out but he can't.

BEWARE : SUBJECT HUNTING SEASON

 COLTER'S FIRST ELK THAT HE SHOT.  NOT BAD, I MUST SAY IT WAS A GREAT YEAR, THANKS MIKE AND MO SMITH FOR THE GREAT EXPERIENCE. 

 I EVEN HELPED, I KNOW FOR SOME THAT MIGHT BE A LITTLE HARD TO BELIEVE.
 BY THE TIME WE GOT THE HANG OF CUTTING THE MEAT WAS GETTING BACKED UP SO I TOOK THE JOB OF WRAPPING IT UP AND MAKING IT FREEZER HAPPY.

THIS WAS ONLY ONE OF THREE ELK CUT UP THIS YEAR.  ONE STAYED AT COLTER'S PARENTS THE OTHER TWO CAME HOME WITH US. 
MAN WE ARE GLAD THAT WE EVEN GOT OUR BEEF IN THE FREEZER...IT WAS TIGHT.

2 Years

So Colter and I have been married for two years now and it seems like just yesterday that it happened. But reflecting on the two years and where we were and where we are now, it seems like ages. Colter and I have been across the world in Korea together, lived in Texas for a while and now are in Salt Lake City. Instead of having the military rule our lives Colter is going to school at the University of Utah, and really enjoying it. I have graduated from the U with a bachelors in International Studies with a minor in Chinese and cant seem to find a job. But I will keep looking. We have Morgan the crazy border collie also known as Morgan Morgan, Morgan Marshall, and well she like Morgan Shmorgan the best, but personally I think she likes that one the most because Colter calls her that and she just plain adores him. We also had a cat but regretfully I must say I dont have hope of him coming home since he has been gone for almost 3 weeks. But we are considering another dog for Morgan to play with so she will stop acting like she is picked on when she comes home to Utah from Evanstan. Again I will first need a job. I have finally after 2 years of battling illness have become accustom to being different. Instead of being depressed and wishing it away, or pretending its not there, or fighting it so much that everything backfires on me, I have come to terms that I can only do so much, and that I really actually need to find a happy medium between all the above listed things. There have been rough times and fun times, but all in all its been the best two years with Colter here to support me and deal with all the crazy things that tend to come with being married to me. But I cannot wait to see what happens next.

MOVING YET AGAIN

So, well we are moving yet again. I think this has become a hobby of mine, to pack up the house and move to a whole new place every6-8 months. This time I am going to say we will be permanent for a good while. If anyone is wondering we are moving back to Salt Lake, but will be in Evanstan for a little bit, but can be visited if anyone wants to come up just let me know.
