Well, here we are in the home stretch to Christmas! I can't believe it. It seems like we just had Christmas. I can't believe how fast the year has gone by. Since my last update, I got a job at the Sinclair in Sugar City. I work about 5 1/2 hours a day Monday-Friday. Justin just finished his second semester of school with A's & B's. He is ready for a break.
We are going to Marsh Valley for Christmas. We are going to have Christmas for 3 days! It's going to be so exciting. Then, for 2 weeks after Christmas, Justin is going to be in Downey. My parents are going on a cruise (and not taking us! Rude!) so Justin gets to stay down there and watch the cows. I'll be back and forth since I couldn't get that much time off.
I'm really hoping that we get some snow so that we can have a White Christmas!! Also, our friends are going to come down to Downey for New Years Eve and we want to play in the snow. Please pray for Snow!!! :)
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!! Ho Ho Ho

Salt Lake Trip
For Mother's Day, my mom got all the girls tickets to:
A few of my aunts and cousins were going to go as well. We had been looking forward to it since May. The show wasn't until the week after Thanksgiving, so it was a long wait. Well, the time finally arrived and we all went to Salt Lake. We got a couple of hotel rooms and decided to get some shopping done. The show wasn't until 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday night. We all got ready at the hotel and then road the train to the Energy Solutions Arena. Well, we got off the train and the building was awfully dark. We walked up the stairs and there was only a few people there. It was 7:00 and so we knew that we weren't way early. We walked over and talked to these people and they informed us that the show had been POSTPONED until August 2012!! We were so mad. We wondered how come so many people knew that it was cancelled, but there were a few of us that didn't. A few more people showed up and were just as mad as we were. We knew that it couldn't have been cancelled for too long because on Monday, there were still tickets available. I called Justin to tell him and he started laughing. He said it was really a disappointment since Michael Jackson is DEAD!! He thought he was sooooo funny. We are just hoping that we can go in August and that it won't be postponed again.

Nezperce Vacation
At the end of October, Justin, Wes & I decided to make a quick trip to Nezperce. We hadn't been back up there since we moved and were missing it. Justin and Wes went mainly to go hunting, and I went just to visit. We left early (4 a.m.) Friday morning and got there just around noon. We stayed with the Grobey's, who came to be our very good friends and neighbors while we were there. We had lunch and then Justin and Wes went hunting. They saw a bear across the canyon & were hoping it would be there the next day, since they needed to go to Orofino to get a bear tag.
Saturday morning, they went down to Orofino first thing. They came back and I kept waiting for them to come back. We waited and waited. Eventually, Justin called me and told me he got a bear. We were all so excited and just kept waiting for them to get back and show the bear to us. After waiting for 2 hours, I finally went down the road to our other friend and they were working on some of his horses. They finally showed up and we were all very excited. It's not a very big bear, but hey, nobody else has a bear! Right now, the bear is getting made into a rug. We are hoping it is done this week. We had a bon-fire that night. It was so beautiful and so fun to be outside and enjoy each others company.
Sunday, they got up and went out to try and find a deer. They didn't have any luck so they just came back and we played games and visited. We ate lots of good food and had a lot of good laughs. We left early Monday morning so Wes could be back in time to take his kids trick-or-treating. We had a few stops on the way home (getting pulled over!) so it took us a little bit longer to get home then we expected.
It was such a good trip and we hope to go back in the spring. We really miss it up there and sometimes wonder why we moved.
