Long lost Robert Sparks

Jonathans cousin Robert Sparks came out to visit family this week with his little girl Madison and his beautiful girlfriend Kristina!

I love Roberts little girl Madison, she is so loving and cute! At first she did not like Jonathan and would cry. As you can see by the end of the night she was won over with the help of kristinas cell phone and bribery. I can't wait to have one! When you are with Madison it is like she is our own. She is addictive lol

Girls day home

Amber and I spent a day home alone together cleaning the house and getting things ready before christmas. And this is where I found my little helper

She made a fort out of my nicely made bed lol

She is so beautiful

This little Runt gave my dad and I the biggest heart attack today! She was out in the feild with my mom playing when a Deer ran across the field. Amber ran after it and took off. My dad and I were so scared that she was not going to come back so we ran our hearts out through the woods. Thank goodness we found her. I don't know what I would have done.

Snow in VERMONT?

I like snow but not a lot of it.

And this past week we got tons!

Our Beagle Amber can now pee standing up lol

1st Tree of the season

We were planning on having a fake christmas tree this year. Jonathan got it on the side of the road somewhere.

We were so excited to set up a large tree, but we were missing one imporant thing...a tree stand! But we concured that trial and set up the tree!

We really didn't like the tree at all so we took it back down, we want a real tree! So we decoreated instead, and that was fine by me!

I Love Christmas!

Tangled

Best MOVIE EVER!

Jonathan brought me and it kept a smile on our faces the whole night!

The horse and the lizard reminded us of Amber, it was too funny,

I want to go see it again!

Ambers new play mate

Our neighbor Joe and Kaylee got a new puppy emma.

They supprised us by coming over and saying hello!

Emma and Amber are going to be the best of Friends...

Emma had a hard time walking on our floors, she kept falling on her belly

Deer Hunting

Jonathan has been trying to hunt a lot this year, he really wants to shoot a deer. Besides hunting by himself he was albe to go hunting with my daddy!

They didn't really have a successful hunting trip because they didnt shoot a deer but they did see five deer altogehter.

Deer season to date, jonathan has only seen one buck and it was a spike horn. I can't wait for bow season, because I am going with him and I bring good luck, hopfully

Vermont is so beautiful

Whiped Cream!

Amber cant get enough of Whiped Cream, she begs for it all the time!

Dont worry she didnt get that bite

Jonathan Doing what he Loves, Hunting!

Jonathan and our little beagule have been having fun hunting with eachother. Amber Has been doing so well. Jonathan has got her on over a dozen rabits. Jonathan alwasy has great stories when the get back from hunting with her.

Jonathan got to invite his gramps and brothers over to go hunting. Gramps has ambers brother so he brought his dog too so they could practice hunting. And I guess it turned out great!

They did great hunitng, they saw so many partridge and the dogs chased the Rabits.

Couldn't ask for a better hunting trip!

Amber is always pooped after chasing all day, so it is nice to have tons of cuddle time with her

Can't wait to see these movies-maybe not Jonny lol

Must see's for me this Thanksgiving

Missing our Missionary

We Miss Brian so much, But we are so happy he is serving the Lord

Miss YOU............

Anniversary Day 3

Time to SKI

We had to ride the gondala up the mountain, and then ski down to the chairlift. What we didn't know is the stairs that jonathan is standing next to we had to climb 700 FT up the face of the mountain to get off the mountain! We thought they were to another chairlift so we had to climb these twice! I was so pooped, it is not easy climbing stairs in ski boots.

It has been forever since I have been skiing, so I was quite impressed that I picked it back up so well. As for Jonathan, he is great at everything he does. He schooled me on the mountain, he did all the jumps and went down the mountain a lot faster than I!

What a Great Way to End a Wonderful Anniversary!

Anniversary Day 2

It has been forever since Jonathan and I were able to go back to the Joseph Memorial. On Monday we were the only ones at the visiters center. We got to sit in on the last 15 mins of the Joseph Smith movie. Everyone was so nice there, what a great spiritual upliftment.


From There we headed to Killington, Our destination

It was quite interesting finding it because we were looking for a hotel, not a condo which is said on this sign.

We had to call to get directions and we were quite pleased to find that we were staying in a condo!

We were so excited to get into our room!

It was such a cute little studio apartment.

By the time we got settled in we were so hungrey so we headed down the mountain a little to find a great place to eat! and We did, it was called "Caseys Caboose"

After filling our bellies with chicken wings, salads, bread and out main meals we were so full, we pratically rolled ourselves out of the resturant.
But all that food was not going to stop us from going to the steam room, pool, and the hot tub. It was so much fun to swim in a heated pool outside. This was the main event for me!


We Love eachother unconditionally.

Its a Love that Lasts FOREVER!
