Where do I even start....

Well Troy and I live in the big city now, and he seems to just love the Heat, well not really. Troy is currently working for Magic Touch Mechanical, and has been since mid April, and I'm working in hell (aka the worst WalMart in Phoenix). I'm happy to have a job and be workings as a Pharmacy Tech, but wish it was closer to home(which who knows where that will be) and in a store that is either not so busy, or has double the people working in it.

On the note of house hunting We've looked at more house then either one of us can count and both feel pretty overwhelmed. There's at least 1500 houses in our price range and I guess we just haven't found the one yet.

This morning we were lucky enough to wake up at 3:30 in the morning and do the irragating for my Nanny and Grandpa, since they are in Utah with tons of my family without me :(. Anyways it was a new experiance and Troy snatched a few shots right at the end.

Leah loved helping me(I say me cause Troy got to sleep in until I need him to shut it off at the end) irrigate and chasing every single cat full speed.
Troy took this one standing up in the play set and I'm getting buckets of water to poor on the plants that are out of reach of the irrigation water.

This pictures for everyone who's outta town, this house is next door(Used to be my Great Grandparents home) anyways 2 weeks about the new owner somewhat ripped out most of the grass and dumped a ton of dirt. Apparently instead of buying a home that already has the arizona landscaping he wants to chop down numerous trees and take out all of the green grass. This is how much of the irrigation that got into his lawn with the wells completely closed. He'll have fun trying to keep weeds out :)

This kitten is one of Leah's Best friends
Us being.... well us!

And this is another one of Leah's BFF's. This is the only kitten left and can't seem to find a home. But Leah doesn't seem to mind.

Jessica's Bridals

So I've got the most beautiful sister ever. No Joke. Jess, my parents, and Jess's sweet friend and I went and took her bridal pictures last night and they turned out amazing! I can't wait to see her get married next weekend! Here are some favorites. Most of them haven't been edited at all.

This is a close up of the front of her dress before we left Nanny's on our adventure.

We first went to papago park and snapped a few with a desert background. Her Dress is just stunning in that scenery.

Next We went to this cool bridge and fell in love with this little girl that asked Jessica which princess she was and if she had magical powers. So freaking cute!

After the bridge we headed in to downtown Scottsdale and took some, although it was getting a little bit to dark we got a lot of really cute ones!

Summer and such...

It's about time, but sometimes school, work, and just life are so busy/overwhelming.

We had a busy summer between working and playing.

We absolutely loved our cruise to Alaska, and couldn't believe how beautiful Alaska was. We wished we had a few more hours in each port to explore more.

This is us on the space needle. It was pretty cool up there, I hated the ride up and Troy hated the ride down in the elevator.

This was at the Mendenhall Glacier, We went and saw salmon, the glacier, and then went and had a salmon bake. Troy loved the fresh salmon!

Being us on the boat

Ropes corse

The Yukon Pass Railway

Glacier Bay

This was Victoria Canada, It was a cute little town.

Roy and I went on a Razor ride up to where he asked me to marry him. ♥ Too bad by the time we got there we were filthy!

This little girl has stolen our hearts. We love our Little Leah and are so happy we have her in our family now.

Back in September we went to Driggs Idaho to spend the weekend with Troys family to Celebrate his dads retirement. So we took some new family pictures. I haven't had a chance to edit any yet but here are some favorites

Maybe this post will keep us caught up for a little while.

Summer

We had fun with the camera trying to do cool pictures with the sparklers.

on the rzr for a quick ride.

Tweets

About two weeks ago we got two baby ducks and they are the cutest things in the world! We call them The Tweets

Too bad their not that cute and little anymore! I think its time for me to get my tea cup Yorkie! (I keep dreaming)

Been Long enough?

Yeah, it's been a while since I've posted and Troys been bugging me forever to do it. Not much is going on with us. Even though we always seem to have things going on. Can't believe we're coming up on ONE YEAR! We've made it so far and we're looking forward to the rest of our lives.

About two weekend ago we went down to Malad and visited Troys family down there. We took some pictures for Amanda and Steve, Although it was way to sunny for the pictures I got a few to turn out. This is My favorite. Super cute kids!

Roy and I got some bad news on October 30th that my Uncle Dan had passed away. He lived in Arizona and they were going to have his funeral service in Mesa. Although him and my Aunt had only been married about 6 years he has been in my life for well over ten. He was a strong man that I loved dearly and So we decided to go down and visit my family down there and pay our respects to my uncle. Although it was for a sad reason the trip was fun! We had lots of family time, went out to eat and play, and went to an Indian museum. On our way home we got a cool picture of a mountain on fire. Miss Arizona already!

Emily and Alissa came over just before Halloween and we painted pumpkins together. So Much fun! Miss hanging out with these girls!

Troy and I decided to go and take some pictures around august. This is my favorite :)
