Pancake Rocks Hike <3

Hey all,
George and I went on a 6 hour hike today!!! It was a hike called, Pancake Rocks (named after the rocks on the picture above). It was quite hard, but worth it! George and I are suupperrr sore. Surprising we're still awake, it's midnight here! *gasp* this is the lastest time we have stayed up in 6 months!!! Crazy, yeah? Yep, we're the new "elderly" definiton.

Abbi practically died on the way down. Poor baby. So, we're not taking her on anymore super hard hikes for a while!! But in the beginning, she found a stream and fell in love! She played in it for about 15 minutes! Then we found a marshy area that she swam around in. Yeah yeah, we know about the parasites she can get, but...seriously that dog loves water, we can't stop her.

The views were simply amazing! Breathtaking! God made the earth so beautiful and unique! It was a wonderful hike thinking about what God created!! The rock formation were crazy on this hike!!

Well...I think we're finally off to bed! Woohoo! Time for some sweet slumber :) Goodnight everyone!

Missing Family <3

Hey all,

Family. The most important thing to me. I miss them with all my heart :( All of my family is in Hawaii, Washington, and California and here I am in Colorado Springs...without them. It's weird how many times in the day that they pop into your mind. A song reminds me of them, a picture, a memory, a joke, or just looking at my face (I have some features of my mommy). You think that you can be big and strong without them...WHILE you're with them, but when you leave homesickness creeps in and plagues you...
So, yes, with all my heart, I miss them. Hope to see you all soon! Love you :)

Oh, please slow down clock <3

Hey all,

Wow, time is flying by, it seems everyday when I wake up...the clock goes faster each time : Well, I don't mind it too much, it means that the weekends are coming faster, but I wish it would slow down then, so I can spend more time with George.

Speaking of time flying, I just realized that next week Friday is going to make 6 months of being married! That's half a year!! Cwaziness. And I loved every minute of it :)

I grilled burgers recently!! Hehe! Who said girls can't grill? (even if it's just burgers haha) George had some good laughs like when I broke a burger in half (so not my fault :p) and when fire shot up and I screamed and slammed the lid shut. Yes, good times :) The burgers turned out yummy though! Yay me haha :)

Well, I'm still looking for a job...*bleh*. I started to do full time on my applications because guess what?? Abbi's potty trained. Now that was an answer to prayer. She can stay by herself now for longer periods of time. Hooray :) I just applied to be a server assistant in a steak house RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF DOWNTOWN! It's so pretty there :) Skyscrapers and such! The uniform is so cool there! They wear long white sleeved dress shirts, ties, black aprons, and black slacks. Neato :) Plus, there one of the most expensive resturants here, so mucho money, I hope. So, I'm praying I get that job! That would be amazing, but I know God has one in mind for me, so I'm not too worried. He's in control and that's so good to know :)

Oh and last week, George and I went on a beautiful hike in Manitou Springs, Colorado :) It was a hike up a mountain and into a valley!! We found a really beautiful meadow in the valley, so George and I stopped to eat lunch there with Abbi. We found a log to sit on and ate our lunch :) All the sudden, George shouted, "Move your foot! Move your foot!" I thought he was talking to the dog, so I continued eating lunch. George moved my foot for me super duper fast and I looked down and a HUGE brown spider had a web right under the log where my foot was. O.O I jumped up and ran haha...I hate spiders and that one...look very poisoness....eep. At least we didn't find a snake.

Well, that's about it all! Have a great day :)

P.s. I found a cool song :) George and I realllly like Paramore, so of course we like this song. Basically it's about people assuming things about people, judging them, and treating them like strangers :) It's really good! And so true :)

Our Pets and Foster Pets <3

Hey all,

I wanted to share some pictures of our pets!! George and I got Abbi from a pet store about a month after we got to Colorado Springs. Needless to say, she's been a blessing and a sweetheart (even with the occasionally peeing and eating of nondog objects). She goes on hikes with us and even sleep right between us at nighttime (on her back haha). Our other pet is a kitten named Calli. I found her curled up infront of my door on a stormy day, so I took her in. George came home and fell in love and we never took her to the humane society :) I was so happy!!!! Abbi

Calli

We also have two "nieces" of ours. They're my brother-in-law and sister-in-law's babies. Bryan went to Afghanistan and his wife Corina went back to California to go to school while Bryan is away. They come back to Colorado in May or June of next year :) So, we're taking care of Delilah and Lolita (also known as Lola).

Lola

So, that's it :) All I can say is they all eat A LOT of food haha :) Have a great day everyone!!

The end...
