You're in a big time out!

Last night Dustin and I went to a hockey game. It was the first hockey game I've ever been to. I wasn't too sure about how I'd like it, but Dustin recently got a hockey game for the xbox 360, and has become kind of obsessed. So it went along like any sporting event. They took the puck back and forth trying to make goals. Ramming each other into walls. Then one of the guys on our team ( like I had a team) made a goal. Well that's good. I mean it's what the game is about. Well for some reason a guy on the other team must have not realized that's what they were all doing our there. He got really ticked off and jumped on the other guy. They started pounding each other. It was hilarious. Then the ref came over and pulled the aggressor off and put him in a box. "What is that box for?" I asked Dustin. "It's a pentalty box. He has to sit there for 5 minutes for fighting." Wait so they put him in time out. I'm sorry I didn't realize we were watching elementary school hockey. And that is pretty much how the rest of the game went. Someone would do something good, and the other teams players would beat them up. It seriously took me back a few years. I never realized how fun it could be to watch grown men fight over losing.

So Lately....

Life has been pretty busy. Dustin's been working a ton. And I've been schoolin and playin with the kiddos. We go see Dustin at the station whenever possible. The kiddos love to go play on the engine.

Dustin and I also got to go on our first trip alone since we got married. It was so fun. We went to stay in Eagar with Dustin's grandma and then went to sunrise and went snowboarding. I haven't been snowboarding since I was 16, and it was only once. So you can imagine how awesome I did. Or didn't. I spent more time on my back than on my board. It was so fun, though. And it was so nice to spend some alone time with the hubby, thanks to my brother and his wife who took our kids in for a few days. Thanks Brent and Kathryn! The drive up usually takes anywhere from 3 and a half to 4 hours. It took us 6 whole hours! From Payson to Show low there was nothing but vast whiteness the whole way. They even closed the road about 20 minutes after we started through Payson. It was kinda scary, but an adventure.

Since we've been home we've been trying to do alot with the kids to make up for leaving them. We even put Dray in karate. He had to test to get in, because they only take about 40% of the 3 year olds. They test their motor skills and ability to follow directions. He passed and earned his white belt.

So that's us lately. Just livin life.
