2013

2013 is a big year for Allen and I and we are so excited for all that it will bring. A huge highlight is that Allen will be graduating for Chiropractic School and we will start a new chapter of our life. We have decided to to do as much as we can to enjoy our last year here! Last year we only made it up to Mt. Hood to snowboard once and so as soon as we got the chance we made our way up there! It was so fun, but then again i was with an awesome guy!

We also had the chance to watch our Nieces and Nephews since Kalynn and Devin had a company dinner right next to our house! It was so fun, I always love hanging out with those cuties! They stayed the night and the next day we ventured over to the fish hatchery and dam. It was fun and nice to get outdoor since it seems like the weather is finally starting to turn around!

The week after that we had the opportunity to go down for Madilyn's baby blessing! We have really loved only living an hour away from Grandma and the Morrison Family. It will be so sad when we have to leave Portland for that reason! Her blessing happened to fall on Super Bowl weekend so we all went to Allen's Grandma's to watch the big game together.

Allen had a three day weekend because of Presidents day and our plan was to go home! I woke up Thursday morning with horrible pain in my back. I toughed it out that day but woke up Friday and could not even get out of bed. In the back on my head i knew exactly what it was, but went to the doctor to confirm. Sure enough, KIDNEY STONES! Yuck, Im telling you guys, you never want to experience Kidney stones, they are the worst. Thankfully they gave me a big shot and it dulled the pain, so i decided i was not going to waste my three day weekend! We went home and got to spend time with both of our families. While we were home it was my little brother Collin's birthday. He was away on a ski trip so we were sad that we wouldn't be able to celebrate with him but that afternoon my parents got a call. Collin had broke is collar bone and needed to be picked up! Poor guy had to come home a day early with a broken collar bone on his birthday! He is a trooper though!!

This last weekend we decided to go on a date to place we have heard alot about. Its called Big Al's and it was so fun! Its a huge upscale bowling alley with a restaurant, arcade games and t.v's everywhere!! We had some friends join us and it was so much fun! I love Allen and all the fun he brings to our life! I couldn't imagine life without him!
