Wow! What a year its been!

Wow we really need to get to the blogging thing more often!
Nothing very interesting happens to us though...Ben has been sick for the last week...poor guy :( And I have been slightly bored this week because I can't go to work, because we can't chance getting our bosses wife sick. she has a very bad immune system and gets sick really easy. So I have been working on a new temple dress for myself, cleaning my house, and reading the Love Comes Softly Series by Janette Oke. It's pretty good reading if you like kinda romantic western novels. They are fun cause they are based on when the west was still young and it tells about how people used to live back then and how they used to do things. anyways...not much else here...we are a boring married couple with no children! hahaha

Hi all...just wanted to update everyone on whats going on with us...well it's not a whole lot really, our life is pretty much the same ol' same ol'
For Halloween we went to Salt Lake to see my sister Tina, and her little girl Aloria. It was nice to see them. Tina took me to the Fashion place mall and got me some free chocolates at a really yummy chocolate store. Then we went back to her house and had Papa Murphys pizza. Then we watched "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir". It's not really a Halloween movie and it wasn't even scarry, but I don't really particulary care for scary movies at all, unless they are only suspenseful, then I'm ok...but this one was an old black and white, and very Wholesome! Not something you find very much these days when you go to the Movie Theater...I think it's just SAD! Anyways
Ben and I did however go to the $3 Theater here in Logan and we Saw WALLE...it was SOOOOOO cute. We hadn't been to the movie theater in like over a year! We love movies like that! if you guys havn't seen it, you definatly should!

Love'n Life!

Ben and I just got back to Logan Last night...we went to cedar city for a baby blessing...bens sister and bro-in-law had a little girl in August...she is adorable! We had such a fun time visiting the family! We only wish that we could have stayed a little longer...we are kind of away from everyone up here in Logan ~Sniff~ but hopefully as soon as Ben finishes school we will live close to family again!

Life is good

I know it's been forever since I posted...
ok here is the up date... since july we have been Working, working, working. thats pretty much it. Ben started school in August and is Loving his Chinese class. I am working part-time and LOVING the free days that I have to cook and clean and bottle tomatoes, salsa, peaches, and whatever else comes my way in the form of FREE from someone elses garden! We don't know yet if we are staying in Logan for spring sememster, Ben has still yet to talk to Dr. Jessop.
Head of the Music department (yes the former conductor of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir) He has an appointment with him Tomorrow. I am just waiting for Ben to make a decision about weather or not he wants to stay here in Logan, cause I am ready to go back to Cedar, or even Provo, somewhere Closer to Family! ahhhh because I am going crazy up here!
Other than that life is good...our ward is nice. Ben plays the Piano in Primary, and I am the Nursery Leader for the Youngest kids. It gets pretty crazy sometimes because I have ALL boys! and we all now how boys attention spans are...hahaha
will post more later..

Oh this last week has been so great! July 18th - 19th... First we went to Bens' family reunion on is dads side...it was in Kanosh of all places, but it was very fun! His sister Brittney is having a baby so all his aunts decided to throw he a baby shower at the reunion. then we went to the park and sang song around the fire. We where caming in his aunts yard, which sucked because he wind blew ALL NIGHT and there was a stupid cat attacking our tent. needless to say I didn't fall asleep until about 4am. Poor benji didn't get much sleep either, because aparently after I had fallen asleep I kicked him off the mattress onto the cold hard ground...:( so your not the only one that kicks in your sleep sanna...haha! The next day we went back to the city park and kids were playing games on the grass. Ben and I decided that it would be best to lounge in the shade in our camp chairs because it was so blasted hot! so most of the day was spent shootin' the breeze with his sister brittney and her husband Jonathan.

At the Lee family reunions every person brings a raffle item to donate to the raffle and them everyone is allowed only to buy one ticket, but everyone gets something...they do this to put money into the family fund...which i think is a great idea!
We won a fleecy type blanket, and a picture of his grandpa Lee when he was in the army.
then all the girls get together and do a crafty thing and the boy go off by themselves to do obnoxious boy things.
This year the craft was making beaded jewelry...and as most of you know I don't wear jewelry so I made it for one of my sisters...cute little frogs with green and wood brown beads...it was quite fun.
Then Ben and I headed for cannonville the evening of the 19th for the Bear Festival and Old time fiddlers...we have been married for two years now and I haven't taken him to it yet, so I just had to this year! It was very fun and Ben enjoyed it emesly! I love going to cannonville it's just HOME! ah sigh
we went to church with my parents on sunday, then monday night my little sisters boyfriend came over and we had a dutch oven dinner at the park...yum! Potatoes and chicken, and corn on the cob!! Ben and I made the fire it was much fun! Yes I am a Piro! It was fun to hang out with Charlene and Jacob, we played games and laughed and had a great time!
we stayed at my parents until thursday morning...then we headed to cedar city to stay with ben's parents for a couple of days, for one of his cousins weddings. The wedding dinner was on friday night...at Rustys of all the expensive places in cedar! Yumo! and saturday we went to St. George for the actual wedding...It was so blasted hot!! YUCKO! and it was even cloudy! It was a nice sealing though.
then we came back to cedar city and it was 20 degrees cooler! that is nuts! anyways
we went to their reception that night...it was very fun! the Lees are such goobers! Ben's family thought it would be a good idea to provide some back ground music by playing the piano...it was great! Unlce Laird loved it...(he is the Father of the Bride). It was pouring outside and very hard to do something to the car...but it finally stoped and we got it! it was very fun! hehe
Anyways...this was pretty much our vacation this year....now back to the old gridstone! Bleck!
