Super Cross

We went to the Anahiem one supercross race the 3rd of Jan. I was a little nervous at first I have been to CJ's races but nothing with the big professionals. I didnt really know what to expect. It was a BLAST!!
I cant wait to go to the race in Salt Lake. During the day we went into the "Pitts" where we could see the riders, their bikes and their expensive motorhomes. The boys loved it!
That night was the race. They were SO fast i couldnt believe it. The only bad part to that is when they crash the really CRASH its scary. But fun to watch. Anyway i will stop blabbering. We all had a great time!

What was i Thinking?

I decided i would make these quilts for Amy and Rhonda for Christmas. Well my mom does these sort of things all the time. She makes it look easy. i will tell you what I am definatly not as good as my Mom. First of all i started way too late. a week and a half was not long enough to do these. But I pulled it off all thanks to my Mom. She helped me a ton. i told her if she did one more stich i would have to tell them they were from her. Thanks Mom for all your help. I couldnt have done it without you.
Rhonda and Amy loved them. I was so glad. They don't look the best if you look really close. but i was proud of them.

Our First Christmas

This was our first Christmas together. It was great! We woke up at my parents house and did Christmas with my family. our niece and nephews were so much fun to watch. They were in my parents room waiting for us to let them out to come see what Santa brought. as soon as we opened the door they came running out. They ran right past the presents and into the kitchen. I don't think they realized what they were waiting for. we got a good laugh. It took them forever to open presents every toy they opened they had to play with for a minute before opening another. It was a blast watching them.

After this we went over to Ty's family to open presents with them. It is rewarding to be married you get Christmas twice. It was alot quieter at the Gardiners no one was fighting over toys but just as fun. (Ty would like to fight CJ over his new i Touch though). We had a ton of gifts to open there and Rhonda and Amy wrapped them so pretty you didn't want to ruin them. It was alot of fun. we were lucky we were able to spend Christmas with both of our families
We were spoiled this Christmas. Our parents did way too much for us. We are so blessed to have such great families.

Ty always pretends he can play the harmonica when he hears one in a song. So, i found a harmonica. I thought it would be funny but it probably was a bad idea. Now he thinks it is funny to annoy me with it.

Ty gave me a GoodFellow Crusher T-Shirt that he got at work for free.(how thoughtful). It was a joke, underneath was a pair of pants he picked out by himself. they were the right size and everything. He did GREAT!

Christams Eve

We spent christmas eve this year with my family. it is a tradition to have clam chowder in bread bowls. I was so excited for it. Everyone was at my parents house and we all slept over. We definatly had a house full. It was a blast. The kids were so much fun to play with.

Every year we get Pj's to open on Christmas Eve.


Ty's were a little too big!

Thanks Giving

This was our first Thanksgiving together. We spent it with Ty's family. Ty's brother CJ races motorcycles and he had a big National race in Mesquite Thanksgiving weekend.
We left Wed. night after we got off of work. Everything was going great we were making good time till we got right outside of St. George and Cj was talking about years ago when they were going Vegas and got a flat tire and soon as he said "flat tire" we hear a POP! the tire on the Camper blew. there were sparks flyin,and it took the fender off. So we pulled over on the busy freeway and changed the flat. We finally got to Mesquite and we were just in time after they let us in the closed and locked the gates.
Thursday CJ had practice and afterwards we went to St. George for Dinner, we ate at the Cracker Barrell which wasnt that good, but i realized that Thanksgiving isn't only about the good turkey dinner, i was thankful to be with Ty and is wonderful family. We had a great thanksgiving even though it wasnt traditional. Cj raced the next few days he did great.

So this picture wasn't from this last weekend but i wanted to put it on here anyway.


We had a great weekend, and didnt want it to end but we had to come home and get back to school for finals.

Body World

I know what you are all saying Two blogs in one day WOW! lol thats what i'm thinking. I need to blog about our weekend we had. We went to Body World on Saturday. All my family except for syd and Tys sister Amy and brother CJ went too. We were glad they came with my crazy family (They both fit right in with us jk). so we left at the break of dawn so we could be there by 10. we were there by 9 and it doesnt open till 10 so we were a little early. i could have slept longer but anyway, we met Kyla and her family up there. I was excited they could come it seems like we don't see them enough. I cant wait till they live closer.
The exhibit for those that don't know it is real bodies that go through this process that basically makes them plastic. They are posed in weird ways and shows different part of the human body. it really is fasinating, but i expected it to be better. It still was really neat.
The best part was getting together with everyone. We need to do it more often. I love our families. We really are blessed to have such great families. I deffinatly am lucky to end up with such great in-laws. And i know Ty feels the same. we love you guys.

Not a Blogger

So since it has been over a month i thought i better do some blogging. And Amy sure lets me know i havent blogged in forever. She knows everything that goes on so everything i blog about is old news to her but anyway thanks to her i will blog. its hard for me to find things to blog about. It seems like we dont really do anything exciting, all we do is homework. And that would be No fun to blog about.
So about school. it isnt going all that well for us. Ty and I both have the same Professor for different classes his Biology and mine is Anatomy. this Prof. is kicking our butts. he is so hard this is his first year teaching and he is killing us and our grades. so every spare moment we are studying (not that it helps us any) :(. so i am blaming my outdated blog on school.
