Ely Trip

We did finally get some nice weather, but it only lasted a few days. We had ourselves a little vacation last week. We seem to take a Nevada trip every time a semester lets out at BYU-I. My buddy from back home was having a wedding reception so we planned a trip around that. We did have an unforeseen detoure. A few weeks ago the Dr. found some cysts on my mom's ovary's. We were very concerned because of the size and due to the fact that my grandma died of ovarian cancer. My mom had a hysterectomy on the 16th and everything came back benige. We are so grateful for the blessings and support that has been shown to our family.

After spending a few days in Provo with my parents, Katie and I continued to Ely for the reception. I was hoping for some better weather so that we could get on the lake, but the wind was way too fierce. We had a pick-nik with my sister's family and a little four wheeler ride, and just spent the rest of the time relaxing and looking at photo albums. I didn't realize how proud I was at a young age to show off my boy parts!

We had a really good time and it was a much needed break for me from the stresses at work and for Katie to get away before starting a new semester.

Where is spring???

We are headed into the middle of April and still waking up to new snow here in Idaho. Katie and I cant wait for it to finely warm up so we can start doing some fun stuff outside. Two weekends ago we went to Henry's Lake in Island park to see the fish as they work their way into the hatchery for spawning. There were some monsters. We cant wait for the lake to open up so we can catch some of them. Last weekend we went to Nevada to visit Aaron and help him on getting his house finished. He has worked so hard and is in the final weeks before he closes. He has done almost all of the work himself. It has been rough but they will have a beautiful home when it is all done. Katie and I are headed to Utah next week then on to Ely for a wedding reception. Then it will be back to school for Katie as she starts her summer semester on the 21st. Seems like all we do is travel anymore. I am excited for a weekend at home!
