Hi All-

I thought I would make a quick post and put up a picture of the dressing room of our trailer. Nichole and I just finished it today and put up the wall board, carpet. We did a bunch of minor fixes as well. There are few more pictures in the gallery. Hope everyone has a great Labor Day Weekend and GO RAMS!

Panama City Beach

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

Hi-

We just got back from Panama City Beach. Derek had to go out to coordinate research with the Office of Naval Research, they are who sponsor his gradutate work. We decided to make it a family vacation as all it would cost was a plane ticket for Nichole as everything else was paid for by the school. We were able to stay in a condo right on the beach and really had a great time enjoying the climate, the beach, and swimming in the ocean. It was really the first vacation that we have had since we have been married. Plus during the visit they interviewed Derek for a job at the base as a civilian researcher in the lab. The interview went really well and Derek really likes the lab and the people who will work there. So we might be moving to florida next summer sometime to start the job. We will keep everyone posted. Also we took a lot of pictures while were down there so have a look in the gallery, it really is a beautiful place. Hope everyone is doing well.

Grey’s and Torrey’s

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Hi All-

Just got back from the summit of Grey’s and Torrey’s Peaks, two 14er’s in the Front Range in Colorado. This was a scout trip with the YM in our ward and I thought I would share a couple of pictures. The entire trip is in the gallery for your enjoyment. It was a great trip except for the summit on both peaks were surrounded by clouds so all we saw was white, but the boys had a great trip. Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Anniversary and Hiking

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

I thought I would give an update on the busy past week of our life. First off Nichole and I celebrated our third wedding anniversary on July 29th. We had a great day as Nichole got surprised with flowers, we cooked together and made ourselves a wonderful steak dinner with pie, and then went to the movie. I can’t believe how fast these three years have gone and it has been wonderful to have Nichole in my life. Next it was a busy week for me as we were field testing algothrims that I have developed all week which made for long days. Then today Nichole and I, with two of our friends, Mike and Chloe, went hiking up to the back side of Gray’s Peak up Chihuahua Gulch. For those of you who don’t know, Gray’s is a 14,000ft high peak up in the mountains in Colorado. The reason for the trip was that I was checking out the route as I will be taking my YM up Gray’s and then over to Torreys, which is another 14er next week and wanted to check out route possibilities. Plus on the hike our dog Summit came along and loved every minute of the hike except for taking pictures. Well I am tired form the hike, but you can enjoy the pictures in the gallery and hope everyone is well
