SURPRISE!

Danny has Wednesdays off....therefore creating Tuesday night and Wednesday as "our weekend". I have been bugging Danny to "do something fun with me". And he did! He took Thursday off. Wednesday morning we woke up bright and early to go Huckleberry picking with his parents. We tried going where our renter told us they were really good, however we got lost and didn't go to the right spot. We kept driving around and just as 3/4 of us had given up hope, WE FOUND SOME! It was a blast! On the way home Dale had us stop at BIG JUDD'S! SOOOO DELICIOUS!
Danny and I get back to our house and he tells me to pack an over night bag that we are going to go do something in Pocatello and maybe spend the night there....so I do. We leave and arrive at The Black Swan Inn Themed Suites. What a surprise! Danny had reserved Pirates Sea Boat as our room. SO FUN! We fell in love with the two-person jetted tub! We went to dinner and slept in. Danny called it "our little honeymoon" since we didn't really get alone time after our wedding and before we started school. He is such a stud! I just love him!
Another surprise? Yep. Danny woke up Friday morning not feeling well....JOY! So he goes to work and suffers through the day since our friend's girlfriend came up yesterday. I go pick him up because he doesn't want to ride his motorcycle in the rain, not feeling good. We climbs into bed, I drug him and push liquids down him. I was excited because I was going to be asleep before 10pm!!!! How wrong I was. As I am drifting into sleep, (GROSS WARNING) Danny starts to vomit in his bowl. So I get him a warm rag to wash his face with, and I clean out the bowl so he can have it when he needs it again. He feels way better. We try going to sleep. Finally around 3 or 3:30 neither of us can sleep very well, both our backs hurt and we are both to toss and turny. So naturally, I move to the ground. (if you have ever lived with me, this is not an uncommon occurrence. I sleep WAY better on the floor when I hurt, don't feel good, or can't sleep.) What do you know...? I slept five hours straight. Far cry from my normal 9, but it's Saturday. Saturday is a special day. The day to get ready for Sunday, and boy do I have A LOT to do!

About Time

It has been awhile since I last blogged, but I have been wanting to get this new blog started. I'll do a quick recap of our lives since I last posted, as to not bore those of you reading.
I married my best friend, Danny, on April 16, 2010 in the Denver Temple. It was wonderful! One of the happiest, busiest, more tiring days of my life, but I would not change it for the world. I LOVE being married to Danny. He is the most wonderful husband I could have asked for. He works hard, studies hard, helps me around the house, takes care of the animals, helps around his parents house, AND still has time to play with our friends. What a wonderful guy!
We have 4 pigs, Spot, who is 450 lbs and pregnant, and then 3 young pigs, Rambo, Slash, and Escapay. We have chickens and turkeys, and cows. It is fun, different, and quite a change from what I was used to.
We got married and four days later I started school with 17 upper division credits, Danny went back to work and was taking 6 credits. Our lives were busy, hectic, stressful, fun, and unexpected. But what more could you ask for?
School finished, and I went home for a week leaving Danny behind to keep the fort down and work. Man was that hard, however so fun to spend time with family and see friends.
