Yes, let's get those facts and figures, Barry, into the idea machine.

Have you ever heard of geocaching? Yeah. Me, either. I guess it's a scouts/nerd/ sorta thing. 

Honestly when Jord and Ash so randomly fumbled on that topic yesterday in our living room, I thought the word was geode cashing. You get really cool rocks and money? 

No. Not at all. 

So we googled geocaching. watched a couple youtubes. got a little curious. maybe we looked up our address on geocaching.com. saw that there a was a geocache 353 feet away from our house. 

we all had our shoes on running down the street not 5 seconds later looking for that geocache.

 

Notice... our house right behind our cache 

oops how did that get there

busybusybusy bees

So.

The question has got to be what haven't we done these last few months? 

Time feels like it's gone by in a crazy blur recently...While I was in the middle of it I kept telling myself "it'll be over soon..".. But knowing I would regret that attitude, I still tried to sit back and enjoy life while being thrown into this blob of working long ours, work outs, photo shoots, family get-togethers, editing, still trying to have a super relationship with my honey, raising rabbits and selling them and on top of that.. having clean underwear! 

Now, when when I don't have much to do... I sit here staring at this computer thinking of how I can be productive and realize I'd rather be super busy than stressing myself out about being too bored and not getting enough done. 

Ohh.. I ♥!

Well. What have we been doing?

 So Jory built a shed.

Thanks to Grandma Crane! (and Allan for using his big ole man tools to help us lay some cement, it's so awesome having him as a father in law!)

We had 9 bunnies and sold them (p.s. greatest business ever! I love my babies!)

Admitted towards my denial that yes, Sarah, you lost your wedding ring. : (

Pictures, pictures, pictures! I've been doing lots of photo shoots- I'm totally loving photography! It's a little overwhelming- I have so much to learn.

So many sweet people have asked me to take their pictures recently- I've enjoyed it so much and I'm totally loving this learning experience... now all I need a mini me to do all my editing.

Lots and lots of family stuff 

Jordon and Sasha bonded

 

 

Oh.. I'm gonna miss my jahbah


Isn't this the best picture ever? Scotty had a little bit of a crisis situation with Jordon while almost tumbling the side of the mountain, let's just say he wasn't in the best of moods. I think I will always bust out a laugh while looking at this picture.

 We just couldn't get over looking at these pictures afterwards- no one could go down this slightly sloped hill slide with out slipping, loosing their balance and looking completely ridiculous- me and Ashley laughed so hard! But when looking at the pictures- it didn't even look steep!

Work

Jay left us for the MTC and Sweden

 

I guess we'll forgive him for abandoning us.

Oh, I did a Triathalon! 

 

This race was totally what I needed right now in my life. Something to make me work harder to be healthy, something to get me to feel good about my self.
It was kind of an emotional experience, while running with legs feeling like they were about to numb up on you- you would look over at a complete stranger- and they would smile and cheer you on with a bunch of encouraging words. Complete strangers! So putting it out there that I cry while watching little boy baseball games, I was definitely fighting to keep back the tears while working hard to finish.
It was something that was doable and I recommend this race to anyone who needs an upper in their life.

There's a snake in the water hole! Or maybe a buffalo.

Last year Jory came home and told me he saw a buffalo in the field behind our house. I laughed at him, then proceeded to make fun of him. And he never saw that "buffalo" again.


Well. Turns out Jory wasn't seeing crazy things in the cow pasture.

Sometimes we go on walks just to look for the buffalo, for fun. I guess that's what people do here in Lehi. I love it!

Note to self

YOU work for a foot Dr. That's FEET- if you were confused.

Keep that in mind next time- for when a friendly pt checks out at your desk and says to you, "I had one more question for the Dr... When I get up to go the the bathroom at night, it hurts."

Next time don't just assume. And don't- as professionally as you can you find the Dr and ask him that not-so-typical question- get your answer, and then repeat it to the pt.

BECAUSE: the pt will act very confused. You will look confused. And then you will get it. He will get it. And no, no. NOnononononononononoooooooo.

He was talking about his feet. When he gets up at night. His feet hurt.

Ooooh...... I'm going to crawl into a hole now.

You should really buy a rabbit.

850.00 in the hole

sometimes your husband discovers ebay and becomes and avid bidder

...he doesn't really end up buying anything, but bids every once in a while on cheap items

he puts his max bid

gets bid out

and does it again

sometimes he'll stay up all night under the covers bidding while his cutie wife drools away in her sleep

somtimes your husband looks at you with distraught in his eyes, sweaty palms, and his voice sounds a bit whiney

because. what was supposed to be $8.50 max bid

got entered as $850.00 max bid

please pray for us
