New Years 2008

I was supposed to work on New Years Eve and New Years Day both the night shifts. So we didn't have much planned, but the day before new years eve i started getting really bad pains in my stomach to the point where i couldn't walk anymore. We made sure our insurance had begun to cover us, Tyler and his dad gave me a blessing, and Tyler's family talked me into going into the hospital. So in we went to the Richfield hospital. They told me i had appendicitis and it needed to come out A.S.A.P. but they didn't have a surgeon available at the time, and for insurance purposes we had to go all the way up to Provo to Utah Vally Regional Medical Center and at 2am on January 29, i had surgery to remove my appendix. Not the funnest thing ever. After that we just stayed up at my parents house in Springville for the next couple of days where we did nothing but lay around. It was great! :) I needed it. We had new years with my family and all though we didn't get to party too much it still was a good one!

Christmas 2008

This was our first Christmas together. It was a good one! First we went up and visited my family as soon as the weather would permit. It was my little sister Abby's birthday on Christmas Eve so we went up to give her birthday present and the rest of my family their christmas presents. We also went to Lunch with my family. It had to be a quick visit so we didn't get caught in a storm but it was still good to be able to see them. We then headed back to Richfield where Tylers sister and brother in law Maddi and Josh Anderson had made it from Pennsylvania. It was good to see them after so long. We had fun hanging out and goofing off. We made some awesome gingerbread houses.

  Our was the best (no offense Maddi :)) because we made a gingerbread basketball court and park. Maddi and Josh did Fish Lake and Brett and Donna did the same old house. But it was a cute one! :) Tyler's parents got a wii for the family with Guitar Hero World tour (the band version). The entire christmas day we played that game. It was a blast. 

Moving to Richfield

We moved to Richfield on the 13th of December. Tylers Aunt Pam got married to a guy from Panguitch and they have to live there until he can retire. So since we were going to be in Richfield she asked if we wanted to take care of her house and grow her some grass and things like that until they can move back here for good. Major hook up huh? 

Remember that first big huge snow storm that we had? Cars sliding off the road everywhere and too much snow for the plows?

 Well it was that day/night that we moved! It was so cold that taking things out to Bretts trailer took twice as long ha ha.

Me and Donna were a lot better off than the boys though because most of the time we stayed inside and packed boxes. :) The trailer we packed was huge! It was either pile it high or have to go back for another load later. We just wanted to get it all done!  Finally at like 10pm we head to our new home in Richfield Utah. We both agree that it's nice to have a whole house to ourselve that we don't have to pay for! It's been so nice so far! We have had a lot of fun!
