Chris and I went to a BYU game with ourfriends Rj and Katie Caseys. They are super cool and we love hanging out with them. The BYU game was a blast. We were worried that the weather was going to stink but the weather turned out to be very nice, it was even a little hot. Even the game was great! BYU totally creamed UNLV! The score was 55 to 7!

The Cabin
Last weekend we went up to Austins families cabin. The first day that we were up there dad kept telling Josh to be very careful on the fourwheelers. He also teased him that he wouldnt take him to the hospitle if he crashed. We told dad not to be so paranoid about Josh, he would do just fine. 15 minutes later Josh walked into the cabin with a white shirt covered with blood because he used it to stop the bleeding. His leg was cut pretty bad from running into a barbed wire fence. Tara cleaned him up and thank goodness he was all right. If you look closly you can see 2 holes that went clean into his skin.
The second day we went home with Tara and Austin who had to go to work so that Chris could play football and I would get to watch. It was the champion ship games for ward flag FB and so far our team is undefeated. Chris had 2 games and they won them both. We went back up to the cabin in time to see the results of a mud fight between Jenni, Cordell, Emma and Cassie. They watched up and got ready to go home. That night Jenni, Cordell, mom, Josh and Cassie went home so it was just Emma, dad, Austin, Tara, Chris, and I there. oh and Molly, Austins dog. Tara and Austin rode the fourwheelers out to let the family that was leaving go but on their way back the fourwheeler ran out of gas so they had to push it all the way back. We went out of town got milk shakes and got gas for the four wheelers and for the rest of the day we mostly rode the fourwheeler, watched 2 football games, and ate food. The third day we went on a family walk down to the river. It was very gorgeous up there. All the trees were either red yellow or orange. We spent some time at the river and on our way up we feed the horses. When we got back we watched more football games and lounged around. Untill about 3:30 we started cleanin up to go back home. We had so much fun and it was nice to take a break from everything else. Just being with the family was great too.

Lagoon
Going to lagoon has always been one of my dream dates and now we are finally going. We started on a fun but easy ride, "the white roller coster". After that we did the "Spider" and the "Collosis". Not going to lie i was a little nervous about the next one. We went on "wicked". I knew that once I went on it I would love it but there is something about the first time for me thats hard. But like I said I went on it and I loved it. At this point though Chris was feeling alittle sick. He loves the rides but we think that he has motion sickness because he just get really dizzy. So we took it easy for awhile going on things like the sky ride, and the haunted houses. We also had a yummy lunch that we had brought from home. We also went on the log ride and the rattle snake rapids. We both really enjoyed the rattle snake rapids. We got one raft all to ourselfs, which was really nice. Chris kept moving around so that I would get splashed with water, so I would move around to avoid that water. When we came to the waterfall we were facing so that I would get drenched. I tried to move but Chris woudn't get out of my way. It turned into a battle of how much he wanted me wet vs how much I didn't want to get wet. We both kinda won and lost because i only got wet on my left leg. Thank goodness it was the side that didn't have my phone in it's pocket. When it happened there was a old couple watching from the side who were laughing at our battle. We decided to give a ride another try so we went on the tidle wave, but it was to much. Lucky for the people infront of us Chris didn't puck on them. So for the rest of the time we went on the chu- chu train. I was actually very imprest with it. They had some awesome animals and you could see them pretty up close. We really liked that one. I was a little bummed because I wanted to go on my favorite ride, "the samuri" but I didn't want to go by myself or make Chris wait so we rode the sky line one more time and then headed home. It was a wonderful date, and I just enjoyed spending time with the love of my life. It is nice to be able to do something that we enjoy together. Plus we went and got diner at Arbys after wards, neither of us had been there for awhile.

Chris and I have a calling together. We are teachers for the 6 and 7 year olds. So far the girls are very sweet and the boys... well lets just say that they LOVE starwars. It is really nice to be working with Chris I just wish we still had the 3 year olds. They were so cute and such sweethearts, I miss them a lot. I know this is were we are supposed to be though. I am excited to see how things play out.

My 19th Birthday
Chris picked me up for work because it was his day off. He asked me if we could just go to the stor and get me something for my birthday because he didnt have time to do anything for me because he had to much homework. I was alil bummed but I understood so I said yes. We got home and when I opened the door and the dinning room was all decorated with streamers, flowers on the table, confetti, 2 cup cakes, and 2 rapped presents. 
My heart skipped, it was so cute, i couldnt stop smiling. It made my day to see how much time of thought Chris had put into something for me. He is so amazing, I am such a lucky
girl. For my birthday he got me a new ipod (mine doesnt work unless its plugged into my player), a full outfit, a swimming suit (bikini ;)), and a key chain that says LOVE. Then we spent the rest of the evening together.

Carmen B. Pingree school for children with autism
I now work at a school called Carmen B. Pingree. Chris and I both work here at the school. Chris works with the elementary kids and I work with the preschool kids. It is the best job ever, there is never a dull moment.
June 2, 2010
You have to have alot of patients sometimes, we have sessions with the kids were we teach the kids what they need to work on in different areas. Sessions can be hard if they don't want to work. Sometimes its feels a lot like babysitting because there is diaper changing, and disciplining but we also get to do fun things with the kids. In my class we have done things like water day, feild trip to look at birds, painting, ext. Chris's class has gone to the dollar theatre, walks to get slushies, bounce gym, ext. So all the hard work pays off when we get to play with the cute kids.
Right now we dont have school so a lot of the time it doesn't really feel like we are working at all. We get to color, cut, take pictures, things like that that you wouldn't think of as work. My class room's theme is a jungle. I am so excited, we have a pet snake named Charles. Chris's class room isn't finished being built so we have no idea what is going to happen in the next few weeks. His classrooms theme is from the "brown bear, brown bear" book.
August 3, 2010
We have now been working here for 7 months, this job is amazing. It is emotionaly and physically draining but we love the kids. We have both gotten to know the kids in eachothers classes. They are all so much fun. One of the kids in my class is moving out. It is so sad and he will definitly be missed. Work as been hard money wise, the 2 week break kinda set us back plus we have been having car problems one after another lately but we will be just fine.
