vEgAssssssss!!!

For a little get away we decided to go to Vegas. Partly for Didds birthday and partly just to get away from our daily lives. It was good. We went to a dirty hypnonsis show and to a mid evil dinner.

up-date

Ok... still dont have internet. But wanna wish everyone a happy new year and hope it was good. Our x-mas went really well. It was super fun. I got a blow-dryer, pants, boots, HUGE Mirror, and a vinyl cutter. Yeah... i got spoiled. I have a wonderful hubby! In return i got him his own bow and a fishin pole and a few other boring things. Ha. Were doing well in this new home. Were currently on the laundry room Ry is starting to tile that. I'm way excited. I hate using my parents. Its a hassel. We promise as soon as this house gets all the way done. Were going to have a party and you guys can come over and we will finally be like normal people and hang out with our friends instead of work constiantly! Hope everyone is doin well!

X-mas

Good morning baby... this was the 1st pic we took ha so cute!

Happy Big 40 mama!

We Suprised the Crap out of my mom for her birthday. My dad ended up renting a room at Noahs. She thought we were going to a wedding there right before we were going to go out for dinner for her birthday. It was awesome. We invited a few of her close friends and had some good grub thanks to Steve and Amy. It went great! Thanks for everyone who helped out!

Breakfast with Santa!

This is a tradition in my family. My ward always gets together and we go to breakfast with santa. It was some good grub. And we got to sit on Santa's lap! Woo!

without..

so currently were without internet and i'm not a good hacker so i cant get the wifi from the people next door. We moved! Finally... i feel like we've been saying that for the past 2 months... wait... we have... ha. Well we are re-modeling still. The living room is pretty much done. I put my tree up. Its lookin good. We cant wait to finish the rest of the house. For right now thats what weve been doin. Hopefully we get most of it done soon so we can hang out with our friends! We both feel a little friendless at the moment. So be patient with us. I'll try and get some pics up soon! Hope all of you are doin well!

what we've been so busy doing...

okay, so why we havent been the best at bloggin is because this is our typical day and has been for the past 2 and a half weeks...

wake up 8, go to the house for a couple hours, do our normal jobs, come back to the house around 5 and stay till midnight or so... so far we've tore off the wall paper, tore off the carpet, scraped off the "popcorn" ceilings, tore up the baseboard, textured the walls, textured the ceilings, primered & painted the walls and the ceilings, and now currently we are sanding the "hell", yes the "hell" out of the floors tonight we finally got it all cleaned and ready to stain and that is what we are doin for the moment. We were supposed to be moved in the 1st of november... looks like it will be a little longer... figured i'd give the up-date.

Rule #1 DONT LET YOUR WIFE HELP YOU RESTORE WOOD FLOORS

Rule #2 DONT LET YOUR WIFE SAND THE EDGES

Rule #3 DONT STAIN OVER WHAT YOUR WIFE HAS SANDED

This is what i have been "helping" out with... that and picture taking, and food & errand running. HaHa (what are wives for?) Ryan totally deserves all the credit of what this house is becoming... (except for the small portion of boo helping him stain the floors)

changin it up!

hey i'm changin our blog to
rwcottle.blogspot.com
so make sure you change it!

Congrats to Kristin & Jared Warburton!

So last night we got invited to go to chefs table with my whole extended side to celebrate my grandpa's retirement! He's done! Hes put in some good years of hard work! From now on, Warburtons Inc. is no longer his. My uncle Greg took over the company. Mostly it was just great to be with the whole family. My uncle mark was in town from Japan and also Don & Wendy and there family came this way from Rosevelt. Thanks for the yummy food!
