March 17-19...Sandhollow Camping Trip

This is mainly a picture post of our camping trip starting and the end to the beginning.....
Chris trying to fish in super windy conditions. I was reading Harry Potter to him :)
My favorite picture from our hike and climbs in St. George.
"King of the Rock!"
I think this is called Fat Man's Misery....it was REALLY tight!
Just climbing. I got up on my first try...pretty proud of that actually :)
Chris climbing without ropes...
Chris and I enjoying a gorgeous, warm day in the sun!
Just chillin with Jed and Bethany waiting for dinner.
Yes...the women did all the work! Just kidding. We all took turns.
The first creature we found. By the time it came to me it calmed down a ton. It was kinda freaky...you could see its claws!
Chris holding his new friend
It crawled out of the fire pit and then crawled all over Chris and eventually went inside his hoodie....ewwwwww!!!
Chris doing what he came out to do and didn't get to do much of...fishing!!!!
We stopped at the St. George temple and spent a little time there. It's a beautiful temple.

March 5, 2011...The adventures of car shopping...

Monday, Chris ended up selling his little Audi so we were in need of a second vehicle. It would be so nice if we could make due with one but crazy schedules won't allow it. We wanted to find something that would be good on gas and one that had a couple more doors :)
I kept finding cars that I liked and Chris kept finding cars that he liked...but we were having a really hard time liking the same thing. Until one day Chris showed me a picture of a Kia Forte. It was so pretty!!! We both liked it except for the fact that it was in Logan, UT. So we went to a local Kia dealership so we could test drive it. We had absolutely no intentions of purchasing there but ended up finding a better deal at the dealership. Take a look at our fun, new vehicle...

Chris was super excited about this purchase....it was like waiting for Christmas to come!
The favorite feature...a sunroof...kind of the selling point. It's kind of a funny story.
Coolest feature...iPod connection...pretty sweet!!
So far we love it and can't wait to drive it everywhere!!!!!!
