I probably won't be blogging for a while because my laptop died and we don't have the Internet anymore so yes I'm boring. I have cute pictures on my camera from Halloween but I can't get them off my camera because I don't have a computer to put them on. So what has been going on? Josh and I had out 2nd anniversary and we found out we are pregnant! So in July we will be expecting another Holley for this world to enjoy. Other then that nothing has really been too exciting. I hope everyone has a great Christmas!

When you can't do it on your own...

Getting pregnant for Josh and me has been an emotional roller coaster. Nothing has worked and now we are in the IVF program at the University of Utah. We are very grateful for the Doctors up there that are helping us get our family.

Derby 09 to Cruise! (Lots of Pictures)

This years derby was fun but not, I'm sure that doesn't make sense, but no one that I really knew was driving this year so it wasn't as exciting as other years but to top it off I FINALLY won the 4-wheeler!!

Five out of 6 years going in and I finally get the key. We did have some cute princesses from the fair there to present the trophy's. They are twins if you didn't notice.

Cruise time comes in September for my family. We always have a good time, and its warm. That's the best part. We went to the Mexican Rivera; Cabo San Lacus, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta. We went zip lining in Puerto Vallarta and that was a blast. There were tons of zip lines, repelling and crossing bridges. It was a work out that is for sure.

Then in the other ports we just shopped and wandered around. In Cabo Josh and my dad went deep sea fishing. They caught 3 mahi mahi and the captain found them a place that would cook some for them. They cooked the littlest of the 3 and gave the captain the other 2, but they had fun and we got some good pictures. I also talked Josh into singing karaoke again this year.

Ending of summer

Josh and I went camping a while ago and we took out puppies. Stoutheart loved it and Fui hated it. Stouthart played in the stream and checked things out, Fui did check things out and torment the little gopher holes and rodents she was still not impressed.

We also got to go down to Lake Powell for a few days, and that was and experience. Our boat broke down the first day and floated around fishing for a while. Preston was our "fish whisperer" and Maryann caught a catfish and Josh caught some kind of fish. We get our boat started and we head out a long ways from our marina and the boat dies again. We end up sleeping on one of the floating toilets in the middle of the water. We wake up and Josh catches a striper (that is why we went to Powell in the fist place) because they were boiling all around us. We get the boat going and it runs for about 5 minutes and dies again. We flag down these nice people and they towed us into the marina. We had enough of floating for a few days so we packed up and made the drive back home.

Josh took me to my first drive-in movie. That was a lot of fun. We watched Ice Age 3 (Not recommended, Kind of lame) and Night at the Museum (I'll have to watch that one again, I fell asleep pretty early in that). But that was way fun. We also got our fist Duck egg and what we thought were chicken eggs, but now we think that only our ducks are laying, but we are getting eggs so that's fun!

Now on with the derby. That's coming up August 22nd, then in September Josh and me are going on a cruise with my parents to the Mexican Riviera!!

Summer Update

So I'm getting worse at this, but to cover what we have done since father's day, here we go. Fathers day we helped move Grandma Holley up to my in-laws. We got home and about 10 minutes later the power went out. How could that of happened?

Yes, that is our tree on the power line, and that was one of 3 trees that tipped over in the valley taking out the power.

Then we had the 4th of July. This what the cake I make.

It was really good if I do say so my self.

I took some pictures of the puppies, and we went camping.

We also got Dezy shaved and she loves it!

It was the best thing that could have ever happened to her. I also found some pictures of Fui when she was a baby. As you can tell she wasn't high energy.

A long time...

So its been about a month since I have posted anything, and the sad thing is that there isn't much fun things happening here. We are going to work and coming home, and sadly that's about it. But over mother's day weekend Josh and I went down to St. George and met my parents down there for the annual EMT convention that my mom has to go to. So that was fun, I hung out with my dad and Josh and about talked Josh into getting a new puppy. We decided that wasn't a good idea because Stoutheart is still trying to get use to Fui. They went golfing while I drove the cart around.

Then on the way home Josh thought that it would be nice to pick up a homeless person that was trying to get to Evanston. We took him to Salt lake from Ceder City. That's about all the fun trips that we have taken so far. As far as exciting this go, I have read on OK book and a really good book. If you like to read "Visions in White" by Nora Roberts is an amazing book if you love the love stories. Now I'm starting on a David Baldacci book that is so far pretty good. That one is called "The Winner". Also Josh and I have started a new work out program called P90X. It is probably the most intense workout I have ever done or will ever do. Its going to be challenging but I hope that its worth it in the end. We did take Stourtheart and Fui swimming Fui isn't much of a swimmer but she does love the sprinklers!

Not "JUST" a....

When our chicken coop was almost done Josh said "its just a chicken coop I don't care". Well from the year and a half that I have been married I have learned that something is not JUST something. This chick coop isn't JUST a chicken coop. A lot of thought and planning and hard work goes into these things. So last Saturday (April 18th) Richard (my father-in-law) and Josh built my chicken coop.

I also have learned that we don't JUST have a farm. Its a Ohana. Unfortunately Fui hasn't figured out what Ohana means and she ate one of our chickens on Wednesday, well you couldn't call it eating because it was all intact except that it didn't have a head. So now we are working on teaching her what an Ohana really is. I don't think she will ever understand...

This is what we can see...

Fui's Favorite friendI didn't even zoom. They were really this close to me

So our coop is really a Chicken, Bunny, and Duck coop, and a baby sitter. If you ever want to pet a cow just give me a call and I'm sure that my cows would love to meet you.
