Fishin with the boys

Today since there was no school and there was some free time Derick, his brothers and his dad went fishing at Otter Creek. For Derick and Dusty it was a pretty fun day, but for Rob and David not so much, they didn't even get a bite. When they all got to the lake Dusty missed two right off the bat and then right after that Derick caught two, then after some time Derick had to walk to the truck to get out of sight for a minute, and Dusty reeled in a fish on Derick's pole, then with in five minutes of that Derick pulled in his third fish. It turned out to be a fun day mostly because we got to spend some time together.

Entering into the new year

For New Years we went to Virgin to be with BreAnn's family it was a lot of fun, that night we stayed up all night and played games til midnight, then at midnight being the rednecks we are we shot off our guns to welcome in the new year ( you can do that stuff in Virgin). After the shooting and the kissing, we got the little ones to go to sleep and we continued to play games. There where a few of us that made it til 5 A.M. That next day (or same day?) they guys went out and shot guns then went "4-wheelin", and the girls went shopping. It was a lot of fun and I think we are all starting to get cought back up on our sleep.

Our First Christmas

This Christmas was one that we could never forget, we got to be with both of our families. On Christmas Eve we where with Bre's family and we had an amazing dinner it was a great way to start out Christmas. After dinner we left to go to Panguitch to be with Derick's family for Christmas day, it was a lot of fun and Derick got to spend his first Christmas not only with his wife, but with his two nephews (they where both born when he was in Iraq). Things definately went awesome and Derick didn't let anyone down Because on Christmas day he went out with his wife and siblings and sure enough got his truck stuck. Luckily his brothers got and rocked his truck enough that he could get out. We had lots of fun.!

Derick and Bre

We got married on August 1st of 2008 in the St George LDS Temple, awesome day! Since then we have been living in Cedar City, While Derick worked for the BLM and BreAnn was commuting to school at Dixie 2 times a week. During this time we have been able to Celebrate the holidays with both of our families. We love being together and hanging out with the family. We realize these blogs are for people to see how friends and there little ones are doing, but we didn't want to feel left out, so we made ourselves a blog too.
