Tren's new toy

We are officially ready for summer BBQ's!

Last year T and I had quite a few BBQ's over at our place, but the sad thing was we didnt' have a grill! We had to use Tren's itty bitty camping one. We had to rotate when people ate cuz we couldn't fit enough meat on his. LOL Oh the memories!

Now we are set, this new bad boy can hold LOTS of meat! Can't wait to plan this years first BBQ. Tren can't wait to cook!

Assembling the new grill!

Final product!! (Yep, it's a cardinal's grill! It's kind of obvious Tren is obsessed with the AZ Cardinals)

Goin green....

Tren and I are going green.....

well kind of

Tren and I's front yard is... well... boring!

It's our goal to make it pretty this spring! We kicked it off by planting a tree!

Tren's bestest bud Gary was over so he helped us plant the tree. It was so funny watching these two! I loved it!

Almost time...

I am so excited!! It's warming up outside which means

it's almost time for.....

FOOTBALL!!!

Tren plays for the Utah shock and I LOVE watching and supporting him!
Games start first week of April!!

The warm weather also means it's time for.....
Playing in the dirt!

It's almost time to do this.... So we can have this...

And last but not least, this great weather means it's time for FISHING!!!

(I can only enjoy fishing in the warmer months)

I can't wait to catch this

While relaxing with him

Chef in the making

Tren and I had his family over for homemade pizza! I thought I would go out on a limb and attempt make my favorite pizza that I always get when we go to Fratelli's. I made a pesto, chicken and artichoke pizza with thick slices of tomato and mozzarella cheese! I thought it turned out amazingly well. I used french bread dough cuz I love a thick crust!
In the time that I made my pesto pizza, Tren had made 3 pizzas..... I had to remind him that it takes a long time to make a masterpiece! LOL

Tren cookin up the pizzas. They all were so delicious!

DATE NIGHT

We had such a fun weekend the other week. We doubled with our good friends Gary and Kim. Tren was able to get us tickets to the Utah basketball game! He didn't get us just any tickets, our seats were on the court! We could hear what the players were saying (not always a good thing) and we could see everything! Now if only he could get us courtside tickets to the jazz! LOL

We played Wyoming.... and we won!!

It was a really fun game to watch!!

Here we are in our sweet seats!

After the basketball game, we went out to dinner then went back to our house for a couple competitive games on the Wii!

It's pretty sad how competitive Tren and I are! Gary and Kim were pretty relaxed while T and I did a lot of trash talking! Don't worry, Tren won every game but one!

She is Gone

You can shed tears that she is gone

Or you can smile because she has lived.

You can close your eyes & pray that she will come back

Or you can open your eyes & see all that she has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can't see her

Or you can be full of the love that you shared.

You can turn your back on tomorrow & live yesterday

Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember her & only that she is gone

Or you can cherish her memory & let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty & turn your back,

Or you can do what she would want:

smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
