Randy and Courtney: September 2011

Monster Trucks

Yesterday Randy and I went to the Monster Truck show in Blackfoot at the Fair Grounds. It was my first time going and I had my reservations about it but it turned out to be really fun. The show consisted of monster trucks, motorcross motorcycles, and tough trucks. One of the trucks jumped over the cars landed on its front end flipped over onto its top and somehow flipped back onto its wheels and kept driving!

House Pictures

Well Randy and I have gotten all moved in and settled to our new house. We moved about two months ago and the laundry room constructed is all done. We still have some organizing to do downstairs and in the two extra bedrooms but nothing that can't wait till school is out in December. Our house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a two car garage, and a huge yard. We live in a nice neighborhood with lots of nice people. We love our new place and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out.

Coming Home!

On Tuesday September 13, my cousin Bobby came home from his second tour in Iraq in the last six years. He was gone for a year and it was good to have him come back home. Randy and I went to the Idaho Falls airport to welcome him home. We waited for about twenty minutes and watched his plane land. It was really emotional because while we waited we a ton of other families waiting as well and there was so much excitement for them to come home. After we said hello to him and hugged I looked around watched other families welcome their loved ones home. There was one family that the dad had returned home and had met his baby girl for the first time. It was a really neat experience and it is great to have Bobby home. Thanks for your service we love you!

Timpanogos Cave

While Randy and I were in Utah two weeks ago we hiked to Timpanogos Caves. It was a ton of fun but really hard. I am not one for hiking and but it was so worth it when I got to the top. Even though I had to take a lot of breaks Randy was very patient with me. My sister Mikala came with us but she basically hiked it by herself because that girl can do anything without needing to take a break. We decided to hike to the caves because Randy had never been before and he wanted to see what it was like.
