Our First Six Months....

Wow. The last six months have been absolutely insane, and so much for my promise to update this often! Not only did Clayton get a job with the Sheriff's department (Detention Officer), but we are official home owners! We have also added a new addition to the family (No no...not a human addition, but an adorable puppy named Remington....)

Not only that, but a former member has made a grand return as well!

We absolutely love our new house and are slowly but surely beginning to settle in. Who knew we had as much stuff as we do though? It's amazing what you accumulate over a combined 48 years! We are both looking forward to being settled and not having to move again for a few years. What a change that will be!

Aside from the craziness listed above, we have just been enjoying married life and becoming more involved with New Song Church while spending lots of time with the nieces! We had them overnight one weekend in the spring. It was their first time over night without their parents, so it was an interesting experience to say the least!

(I cannot find the pictures from the girls' stay, so I decided to post Kiahvi and Watson instead:-)

We also took a trip to Estes Park as an early 6month anniversary/surprise gift for Clayton's 25th birthday. We stayed in an adorable cabin right on the river which had a private hot tub on the deck which was AMAZING. Looks like we'll just continue taking short mini-honeymoons to make up for not getting more than a few days back in December! Now that I'm working at Quality Inn I also get significantly discounted rates all around the country, so we could go anywhere for a third of the price! That is exciting!

Until next time.....Love to you all!

The Beginning of Forever

Hello World! Much has happened in the last several months, so we decided it's about that time to join the blogging world! We are hoping this will be much easier than trying to manage many different facebook and e-mail accounts just trying to keep in touch with everyone we know. We will try to be fairly good about keeping it up-to-date with our lives!

First things first:
As many of you know, Clay and I met in September 2009, were engaged in August 2010, and we were finally married on December 18th and are so excited to be spending the rest of our lives together! Due to all of the stresses and decisions needing to be made through the planning process, we were very relieved to have the day finally arrive and put all of the waiting behind us.

Since the wedding we have remained in Gunnison while Becky tries to stay motivated so she can graduate in December, and Clay works for the school district. We recently moved into a little two-bedroom duplex in town which is the perfect size for our little family of four (us and our two furry friends). Aside from our partying neighbors, we are loving it!

Kiahvi does not always enjoy having such close living quarters with Watson

Although we are not sure where God will be leading us in the next several years, we are enjoying the time spent near Becky's family, and being within hours of Clay's Mom, Scott and Grandma Billie!
