Our New Home!

Well, we're finally settled in..everythings unpacked and I've been working my new job for 2.5 weeks now! I'm learning a lot there, so hopefully I can do an internship and be a dietitian soon! Brandon got a part-time job at SnowBowl...hello discounts! He can ride for free and give family/friend discounts ;-) So if anyones up for that in the winter....
Everythings falling into place and we really like it here. You'd think in small town there's not much to do (theres 1 movie theater!)...but we've found lots of little things, especially in the outdoors. One of the best things is all of the biking/hiking trails. The weather is great (we'll see how I feel in the winter-haha) and its pretty everywhere! Lots of wildflowers right now...can't wait till the fall time! Another cool thing is all of the good food downtown. It's been busy here right now with tourists coming to see the Cardinals practice and all the college kids coming in. We are about a mile from the South end of campus. Speaking of school... it is so great coming home to no homework! Sorry Brandon! He actually doesn't have it too bad this semester... he is going to to ASU online. Then he will probably do NAU for a year and hopefully be done. I'm thinking that's how long we will be here. Ok well I'll stop babbling..here's some photos and more to come later! .......

It is so beautiful up there!
That one picture reminds of an old joke, "Why did the Brandon cross the road?"
We are looking forward to coming up to see you.

I'm so jealous of you! Flag looks awesome, as always. Can I come visit and sleep on your couch??

It's so nice to look out the window and see trees. :)
