We're Moving

Just thought I'd share the news that Cade got a job in Salt Lake and we are making the move next week. I love Cedar City and am going to miss it, but we are both really excited! This will be our forth move since we got married but first time to a new city. SLC here we come!

Family Holidays

Well since I stole Kimberly away from her hometown for the Holidays for her first time ever, I decided it was my turn to make my long anticipated blog debut. We spent about a week in Salt Lake and got to spend some much needed time with my family. We picked up Grandma in Nephi so she could witness this historical occasion. My brother Brett and his family came in from San Diego, so the Booth family were all together for the first time in years!

We got to go tubing one day

Kimberly even got to open a gift or two!

Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree

I am so sad that my camera died forever ago and I can not find my charger since the move :(

Anyways we put up our Christmas tree on Wed and I love it.

I just have to brag to Brent and Lindsay too that this is the best Christmas tree we have ever had....well I guess that just means its better than last years since we've only had one tree.... but still you guys just might be regreting your decision if you saw it. Ha.

I had so much fun cutting down a tree the day after Thanksgiving even though I was missing Cade and missing my camera.

 I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season! It finally feels like Christmas around here!

....and that is something to blog about!

-Especially cuz I'm sick of our Halloween stuff staring me in the face

Halloween Weekend

Cade and I actually split up for Halloween which was weird, but I went to my friends baby shower and he went home to visit family and go to "the friends" Halloween party. We really don't have much else to blog about. Life is pretty much the same. I haven't taken pictures in forever. So we stole these from other people. But here are some pics from the party. Looks like I really missed out

Meanwhile I was hanging out in Panaca. Here are some pics from the shower which was so fun! I'm glad that I was able to make it. Can't wait for her baby to get here.

Life Lately

We are all moved into our new place. Yep thats right we moved again for the 3rd time so far since we've been married. I'm not a big fan of moving either. It amazes us everytime how there is this never ending pile of stuff that accumulates at the end of a move that keeps you coming back time after time when you think you are finally done. Maybe some of you know what I'm talking about. Our new place is not only new to us but fairly new in general. It is a 2 year old duplex, kinda small but we love it. We have a back yard which I love. Even though summer is over, it is comforting (especially after living on a second floor of an apartment) that I can just walk outside and enjoy the fresh air whenever I please.

This past weekend we headed out to Panaca for the 100 Year Celebration of Lincoln County High School. It was so fun to go home and see old friends and remember what high school was like not only for me but all those who have attended LCHS in the last 100 years. I think the oldest alumni there was 98 years old. We were able to go to a lot of the activities and watch the Homecoming football game. (P.S. still cannot believe that my nephew is a Senior there! Freaks me out!) Good job Tyler and Logan! But most of all we were there to work. All ten kids came home to help my mom cater a lunch and dinner for about 1000 people. Crazy! Whew, just glad that is over and now my mom can rest.

Fall has definately arrived and summer is gone :(

The only thing that gets me excited this time of year is looking forward to holidays, maybe the occasional snow boarding trip, and snuggling up at home when its cold. Other than that I'll just be counting down the days till summer is back. Here's a recap of the very few pics I have taken this summer.

24th Celebration

This past weekend Cade and I headed to Panaca for the 24th of July celebration we have there. Cade, my two brothers (Chris and Scott), and cousin Lance were all on a team for the traditional 3 on 3 basketball tournament. They did so good and were undefeated.

The Parade

This is Cade's adopted son for the weekend. He loves Uncle Cade!!! Nathan was usually right there by his side and when he wasn't, Nathan was asking "where's Cade?" So cute!

Here is the Mathews Farms float ha ha. That's what ya get in a small town. Our float took grand prize. You can't really tell from this pic but it was pretty good. They had corn poppin up in rows and everything.
Just chillin...waiting for the parade to start

Dutch Oven Dinner

Every year after the parade we have a big dinner at the church and the whole town comes. This year my dad was Chairman and he decided to have dutch oven dinner. It was so good! I'm proud of him for pullin that off. It's not easy roundin up 150 dutch ovens and cooking chicken, potatoes, baked beans, biscuts, and cobbler for 700 people. Nice work pops! The not so sweet part is I ended up helping make 700 biscuts...uggh!

Some of my family came and here we are hanging out on the porch. I wish we had a pic of the green fields that surround my house. They are so pretty in the summertime, especially at this time of the day. Good old Panaca...sometimes I wish we could live there.

1 YEAR

July 5th was our one year anniversary. I can't believe how fast one year can go by. I feel like I was just barely planning my wedding. Yet other times I feel like I've been married forever. Weird how that happens. We really couldn't be happier. One year down....eternity to go...We went to Vegas to celebrate. Cade surprised me with reservations to a hotel a few months ago. What a nice guy! We had so much fun. We hung out by the pool, ate really good food, went to all different places including the shark reef at Mandalay, and finally we hung out with some of our family for the 4th. It was such a nice and relaxing weekend away.

Watching the fireworks on the 4th of July.
We had our own little party with my brother,
sister in law, and my 2 nephews. Chris was in
charge of the fireworks and surprisingly no one got hurt. Jk Bro!

On a side note, I also have to point out that before our trip started I came home to these.

Sometimes Cade is so sweet. He surprises me more and more everyday.
