Today is our Two Year Anniversary!! It's gone by so fast, but we have changed so much! Kameron has been the right hand I've missed all my life. He knows how I think even when I don't know what I think. I couldn't have found a better match for myself. He's such a hard worker and so much fun! I am so glad we have eternity together because just life on earth would Never be long enough.
Here are some pics of my wonderful husband!

Just a thought...

So we are moving at the end of this month and I am starting to look at my surroundings and the apartment we will be leaving soo. There was a couple that lived in our quad of townhomes. They had like 4 or 5 wiener dogs which you could hear throught the wall, but nontheless we were neighbor friends. The kind that you see and smile and say hi but never go beyond that. Well yesterday I was walking by and I look over and their place is empty! Should I care? I've never held a convorsation with these people, yet a part of me feels caught unaware. They left and didn't tell me! Just like that. Our doggy neighbors are gone from our life never to be seen or heard from again. Just makes you kind of sad how quickly people come and go from our lives.

Lake Roosevelt!!

We went to the lake...again! It was so much fun!! Kameron and I stayed the night in the boat! on Friday and got rained out on Saturday. Didn't even stay past 8:30AM it was raining so much! So we drove to Thatcher and hung out there until Sunday afternoon and Kam and I drove to the lake to find a good camping spot. I even had to drive the boat by myself while Kam went and drove the truck to a different dock! So we camped out and than the DeRusha clan came up during the day on Saturday. Kameron wanted to get some good fishing in since we got rained out. And boy did he catch some monsters! It was so fun being with everyone on the boat. And wakeboarding and trying out the tube thing. Wasn't a big fan but it was fun to see the little kids get so excited! So much fun!! Just so many memories that come with the smell of the boat and the lake. I hope we always can go to the lake! Can't wait to do it again!!

So the top two are of our sleeping arrangment on the boat. We got there late and had to hurry cause it got dark and we wernt prepared to drive the boat at night. Yeah didn't sleep very good but something I can say I've done. And the other is us getting rained on. A lot.

Oh just a side note, I forgot our pillows, matches for the lantern, cream cheese for our breakfast, and I didn't have a rain jacket. Thankgoodness it didn't rain that Saturday night! And I need to take more pictures! :)

Kameron caught about 4 fish. One on saturday and the others on Saturday morning. A couple got away from him but overall it was a great fishing trip!

Other news: We have decided to move across town. No price change which stinks but we will get our box spring and have a place that actually fits our washer and dryer!! We move the end of June. Before we know it we will by flying to Minnesota dontchya know! Time is just flying. I'm just glad we get to spend it with family!!

Lake Mead-Take Two

So we went to Lake Mead, again. It was fun although I was not too excited about the idea at first. We have been driving (long ways) for the past month and I was looking forward to a lazy saturday, but my ever adventurous husband set up this trip with the help of his brother and I guess somewhere in there I decided to go. Cade's wife Caryn decided to go too which was fun! Lots of fishing and Towing....yes, as you can see below a stranded group of river rafters asked if we could help them out cause it was too windy for them. We sure were a sight haha. Good service right? well these people insisted they pay us (it did take us quite a while going 5 miles per hour) we didn't take the beer they wanted to give us but the $200 sure was nice! Yeah. crazy. I wish I could through around $200 bucks. Morale of the story: Be nice, it might pay off.
So life update, Kameron is finnished with school pretty much and should get some good grades. He'll have a little break than start up on summer school. And our next Big evnt would probably be Minnesota!!! I'm still sad my brothers can't go, but I'm sure we'll still have a good time! Lots of fishing and Family time!! That's in July though so we still have a couple of months to save our pennies. We are thinking of moving from our home we have now, cause of rent going up, but we'll see if Flagstaff has anything else to offer. Cross your fingers. Oh and I got a new phone. which is exciting because Kameron had pretty much nicknamed my phone "the dinasuar" It's a pretty cool phone: evoke qa4. Still getting used to all the touch screen, which can be pretty irritating sometimes, but it's cool.

These are the folks we gave a lift too. Sorry Caryn I'm too lazy to do any cropping :)
Oh and these people had been river rafting for 25 days! Count 'em...Six rafts.....!

Kameron and me below after a tasty dinner at Golden Corral

This Picture is for Emily. Because I can't go to her Graduation this weekend. But I love you Em. I'll probably be thinking of you all day. You are amazing and I miss you so much.

So here is a beautiful picture of Lake Mead early in the morning. There is just something about being out in a boat before the day starts. We went to Lake Mead for the annual Johnson get-together. The weather could have been a little better but the fishing was good and we had a great time! Can't wait till next year! here are some pics:

We took my family's boat out. Sadly the battery was bad so we had to jump it everytime but now that we are back home I think Kameron has it figured out so our next trips won't have that problem. It was fun being on that boat so many memories. It's fun to be putting more memories into it too!

And last but not least here is a picture of us, sadly my excitment for spring has been put on hold. It is still snowing! School is starting to wrap up in the next couple of weeks just to start some summer school! yay. But life is good and we just enjoy it!

Hello Spring!

I like spring. It makes you want to clean and have a fresh start! We went to Lake Pleasant (um don't know if I spelt that right) this past weekend. Unfortunatly Kameron and I have both been getting sick. He's got a cold/flu and I had really bad stomach bug. I am feeling better but Kameron is still fighting his. But nevertheless the lake was fun, even though we didn't even get a single bite. I am blaming the moon cycle. It was fun to get to use the DeRusha family boat! And get some sun! This weekend we are looking forward to a nice quite time just watching conference. And some more good news...well I guess it depends on who you ask, but Kameron, his brother and his dad got drawn for elk hunting in November. Atleast this time I won't have to go camp in the freezing cold. For all you hunters out there unit 7E is pretty much in our backyard. Kinda. So good luck guys!!
Other than that nothing else exciting. Just working and school. But life is going good. Atleast it isn't snowing anymore! Just wind, but like I said it sure is nice to see a hint of spring.

qtt

Quality Time Together. That's our life motto these days! So here are some updated pictures of what we've been up to...

I always have to post snow pictures because it just shows whatliving in Flagstaff is like. Thankfully the snow is melting and it kinda of feels like spring!!

Seriously the snow was so high! Poor Kameron had to dig his way to his truck at 4:30 AM! what a trooper!

Yay for Valentine's Day! We got to go to Outback Steakhouse for a delicous dinner! Thanks to the gift card from christmas. We decided that would be a great annual christmas gift so we could use it for valentine's day and not feel bad about going out to a nicer resturant. Yummy!

So here are a bunch of pictures of us at Walnut Canyon. It's about 15 minutes from where we live. I was really windy and the cold we are kinda used to. It was really cool to see where people used to live and just be outsoors. And the 270 (Kameron had to count every step) steps back up the canyon was sure a good work out.

I like how I fit in the little cave/home haha.

you can kinda see the home in the right of the picture.

And I can't imagine how these people lived so high up! It made my legs feel like Jello!

So not too much has been going on. Just school and work. We are headed to Mesa, Thatcher and Cottonwood next weekend because we are borrowing the boat so we can take it to Lake Mead. Kam's parents are nice to let us keep it at their place. But yeah we are looking forward to Lake Mead and spending time with family whenever we can. The Lord has deffinatly given us some hard trials these past couple of months but we just try to learn from them and become stonger people and strengthen our testimonies.
