Day of Skiing!

Steven had spring break from school this week and we ended up working fulltime everyday but yesterday. We decided to have a long weekend and we went skiing all day yesterday at Snow Basin with my father-in-law. Here are some pictures of the fun!

This is the top of Snow Basin looking out across the valley.

My father in law again in his other coat. It was such a nice day he had to trade to a lighter weight coat.

Me in my get up.


This is a little video of my ski skills. I'm not the first person but the second. The first person is much better than I am!

Tis the time for the season of loving

Well it was recently the season of love and we had Valentine's Day. We ended up going to Park City with 3 other couples. We shopped around the town, ate a a cute cafe that had the BEST gyros I've ever had. We then stayed at our friend Callie's grandparents cabin a little ways a way from Park City. We had so much fun there playing in the snow and sledding in the morning. Her grandparents were really cool and a lot of fun to talk to. We unfortunately are terrible at taking pictures and have none to post. Sorry we're so lame! However, last weekend I got into a huge cleaning mood and rearranged out whole house. I made our quilt box fit into our bedroom and here is how it looks:




With it as always is the Gusterman. And last but not least, I got glasses. So here's a picture of me with my new look. I realize my neck looks really fat in this picture, but that's just because of the way my hair is hanging. I don't normally have a steroid neck.

Around Our House

This is our cute house. We have finally uploaded pictures over the last few months and are throwing a few on here!



Our front stoop during the fall and Guster sniffing around.

Me in our kitchen making Christmas Mushrooms.



Our Christmas decor.

A lap blanket I made this last year. It took me a while to buy all the yarn. It's not perfect, but I like the imperfections. They make it look cooler I think.


A bookshelf I got from my work. I recovered almost all the shelves in old vintage wallpaper that can be better seen in the below picture.



Those two above are of an antique quilt box we got for Christmas from Steven's Aunt. It matches our headboard perfectly but, unfortunately, our bedroom is too small to get it at the foot of the bed. Someday when we have our own place we'll be able to get it all together and it'll look like a cute country bedroom.


This windowbox is Guster's favorite haunt in the summer where we can watch birds and bees in the apple tree just outside and get lots of sun. I love that that couch fit in there so perfectly. It's a great place on summer days to lie and read and take Sunday naps. It's too cold in the winter because of all the windows.

Last but not least, my cute little hubby working away on his homework. Isn't he just darling?

So we haven't posted anything in a super long time. For some reason Blogger decided it would be a good idea to change my sign-in e-mail name without telling me. Anyhoo, I was browsing gap.com yesterday and found this little outfit in the baby section. It was so cute it made me want to have a baby right now just so I could dress it in this. I sent the link to my mom and she ended up buying it for me and saving it in a chest she made for all the little baby things she's been gathering for me for the future. Isn't she just the world's best mom/grandma? I certainly think so. So if anyone else likes this outfit gap.com has it and a couple similar!

We're going to make it after all

Well we've made it a whole year and we're still together! We don't have any pictures from our actual anniversary as our camera is currently broken, but we had a great time. We went up to the Snow Basin Lodge and had a super fancy dinner on top of the mountain. It was really great.
My parents came out from New York a couple weeks ago and these are pictures my mom took. The temple and rainbows here are just so cool.
This is our adorable little house that we've been living in for over a year now.

Sawtooth Backpacking Trip

Over the weekend we took a backpacking trip to the Sawtooth Mountains up in Idaho. It was a 5 hour drive there and then 4 days of hiking and camping.

Suit up!



Bryce and Tessa Coy invited us to go with them. It was Tessa's birthday gift to Bryce. That's them up there.

This is me and Steven in case you didn't know.

Mountain Goat Bryce.



This is Rock Dock. Great little swimming area and a place to get away from the bugs.


The Bench where we cooked all our meals.

We camped here for two days.

Hiking and summer fun

Hey, here are some pics from the summer. We have been doing a lot of hiking at stuff so here they are.
