Pinedale Visit

This week I had to come to Pinedale for work so I stayed with Sara and Bevin over the weekend. The baby is so cute and mellow but Carter is out of control.....many funny moments from him.....to many to count.....and he still calls me Sammy.
First time meeting Avery.

Carter thinks he is big pimpin???

Avery is so mellow and just sleeps most of the time.

Crazy Carter

Superpacked Logan Weekend

This last weekend I made the trek to Logan. I met Bevin in Kemmerer and we drove over together. Friday we watched movies and ate pizza a usual. Saturday was Sara's baby shower at the Olive Garden (never going there again....they messed up our reservations). Sunday was Will's blessing and then the Super Bowl/pig out session. Bevin won the score bet.....about $40. After the Super Bowl we watched the Michael Jackson movie.....it was sooooo good. Me and Bevin drove back to Wyoming on Monday morning (sucked cause it was early and it started snowing in Kemmerer) and we listened to Howard Stern.....which the big rumor is that he is going to replace Simon on American Idol. Howard would not confirm or deny the rumor so I am hoping he does replace Simon cause it would be so funny. Me and Bevin were laughing our butts off listening to him on the radio. Anyway below are some pictures from the weekend.

Morgan and Carter taking a nap together before the Super Bowl. Also the pups were tired from their torture haircuts the day before.
Carter in the dog cage. He kept going in it and then would want someone to lock him in?? He is for sure the bucket head kid.....he sure keeps us laughing.

Since the Olive Garden screwed up the shower reservations, we came back to the house to open presents.

We will always have the free Appetisers!

Morgan and Carter calling it a night. Carter loves hanging out with his cousin Morgan.

Grandpa with his two grandsons.......how cute!

Back to Mt. Rushmore

I had to go back to Rapid City again for business and this time I drove so I would not get sick on the plane. I drove myself to Cheyenne and then me and Amy (co-worker) drove together to Rapid City. Robyn another co-worker from Montana had never been to Mt. Rushmore so four of us decided to go. We ended up going in a limo because it was not that expensive with four of us splitting the cost and none of us knew how to drive to Mt. Rushmore. So we took a limo and it was soooo fun. Then on the way home me and Amy drove to see Devils Tower because I had never seen it before. It is has been in several movies....the most famous is Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind. Also, on that drive we saw 4 bald eagles but when we stopped to take pictures they would fly away because we were in Amy's husband's diesel truck and it made too much noise when we stopped. Don't ever drive around the state of Wyoming because there is nothing but barren land.

This is Devils Tower. We did not have time to drive right up to it but you can drive up to it and there is a 1 1/4 mile path that goes around the base of it that we would have done if we had the time.

Robyn, Me, Amy, and Karol by our limo in the parking lot of Mt. Rushmore.

The limo provided a bottle of champagne for us.

This is some friends at Christmas time. Cody, Tamera (my roommate), Leigh Ann, and me.

Leigh Ann, me, Tamera.

Zoomed in picture of Devils Tower.

This was a pop machine at Mt. Rushmore. It looks like I hiked up to the real deal.

Western Wyoming Tour

For work I had to do some travel for a week. I went to Afton, Jackson, and then Pinedale and stayed in Pinedale with Bevin and Sara for the weekend.
This is a picture of Afton. It is a cute little town with a lot of snow.

This is another lake in Pinedale that is frozen and two people were out drilling a hole in it to fish.

Carter being a cry baby when we were trying to take a picture.

Of course Pinedale is bear country.

Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Rock Springs, Wyoming office.

Swine Flu Recovery

I almost died from the Swine flu and have not updated my blog for awhile, so below are some random pictures.

This picture is of me and "Coach" he was a contestant on last season's Survivor. He came in fifth place and he told me he got $90,000 for it. He was the token weird guy on the show and because I am huge fan of the show I was the only one in the Rock Springs gas station who knew who he was and I freaked out and followed him and asked him for a picture. I will always have Survivor.

At work in my office in Rock Springs. I am still trying to recover from the flu so I got a huge mess from all the work that has piled up.

While I was in Billings, Montana for training for work....this lady worked in the Billings office and she reminded me so much of Grandma Condie. She seriously acted just like her and I think she looks like her.

I will always remember Thanksgiving of 2009 in Boise when I got to see all my friends and family - even Tarene and Trisha. Miss them and love them lots! Michael is in the picture below - he is my best friend in Boise.

Joey and Karla....and of course Tarene had to sneak in the picture.

Test

Ok does anyone know why it is not showing when some people publish a new post??? I know mine is not updating on some and some are not updating on mine. What is the deal?

Halloween 2009

For Halloween I was Alice in Wonderland and Tamera (my roommate) was my Chesire cat. Me and Tamera had a party in her garage on Halloween and then the weekend before we went to another party at another friends house. It was a fun Halloween.

Missionary Joe and his prego friend?? Ashley and me.

Me and Donna....she is a devil. Geez in real life you would not believe this is her.....she normally has blonde hair and blue eyes.


Me and Leigh Ann......she is a bee.


Donna's party and she had deviled eggs that looked like eye balls and cat litter cake.


Donna also had some dip that looked like the pumpkin threw up and some shrimp brain stuff.


Our party in the garage

Mt. Rushmore

I am in Rapid City, South Dakota for training for my new job and my new boss took me to Mt. Rushmore because I wanted to see it sooo bad. It really is cool and if you have not been you need to get going!

This is me and my new boss at Mt. Rushmore.

It is sooo cool!

I am so happy I got to see it.......I can now check it off my -to do before I die list :-)

Rock Tunnel you drive through when you go to Mt. Rushmore.

Picture from the viewing area.

Like 20 minutes away there is another rock sculpture called Crazy Horse. I never even knew about it till I got here......but a family owns the land and they are on a mission to carve the Indian Crazy Horse and his horse into the rock. You can see the face part......and they are still working on the rest. Look it up on the internet to see how it will be sometime in the future.....it is crazy and has a story that goes with it.

I got a job.......FINALLY!!!

For my new job I will be traveling all over Western Wyoming setting up trainings for elderly people and then helping them find a job after they are trained. I start October 19th and I have to fly to Rapid City, South Dakota for a week. I hope it works out?!?
