Its been a while

So after 5 horriable years we are finally moving out of the crap hole named sacramento. We are moving up the hill towards Tahoe to a nice city called Auburn. Its about 30 miles out of sac and is at an elevation of 1210 feet and is 1.2 miles away from the river.

We move tomorrow!

This is the front of the house. it Looks like it has been added onto, becuase yes, there are two front doors.

New puppy

Hey all, so we have had zoe for about 9 months now. she loves the dog parks and going out to play with other dogs. the cats were getting a little sick of her trying to play with them and juping at dogs on the TV is so sad so we decided to get her a brother to play with. His name is Ari and they love each other. all they do is wrestel. And yes, he is a French bulldog, and his ears are coming up soon. The cartalage in his ears isnt stiff enough, but sometimes one or the other sticks up and we are sure it will happen soon

Christmas

I've decided that our New Years resolution is to update our blog more often. So in the spirit of New Years being 2 days away, here is an update!

Our christmas was busy but a lot of fun. Christmas eve, we left the kitties at home and headed up with Zoe to tahoe to meet my family. It was eventful and we were lucky that my brother got off work early. The next morning was Christmas and we woke up to tons of snow which Zoe loved.

Our cars in the morning

We left Tahoe around noon to head to the Reno airport to fly to Colorado. The trip was great. We went bowling, snowboarding, watched movies and ate a lot of great food. We left Sunday night and arrived back in sacramento at 11:30.



The next night we used our chipotle gift card from Jarom and Melissa. (this is us enjoying our burritos.)

Here are some more random pictures, mostly of Zoe.

Zoe and our neighbors dog, Diablo, wearing their Christmas sweaters.

Zoe being cute.

Snow!

So we were finnaly able to take Zoe up to the snow for the first time for her. We were a liitle skeptical becuase she wont even walk outside if the ground is wet.. which makes it hard for her to got the bath room when it rains, but she loved it!

We also put up the christmas tree

And one of the new car

more from the underwater.

These are more from the cheap little underwater diposables. I took these and many more but here are some good ones.

oh and that sea turtle was just there went i first jumped in. i ran into one 2 days before at our beach.

We were only about 50- 100 feet off shore. and the cool thing is that this is almost how it is every were you go. These were in about 16 feet of water.



these sharks were bigger then me.

Hawaii

recently we went to Hawaii. (mom and dad... let me know where your going and I'll let you know what to do and what not to do)

anyways, we spent all our time on maui near lahina and kannapanli. I went snorkeling every day in the morning and in the afternoon. We did kayaking, drove around the island. Surfed. Went to a luau. and chelsey was stung by a jellyfish.



sea turtles are all over the place. we also saw 5 reef sharks. they were about 3 feet away and they were about 6ft long. I saw 2 octopus..octupi? one the size of a base ball and one the size of a duffel bag.

This was some botanical garden.

View from our luau. we were staying 2 miles up the because from here.

This was out beach in front of the time share.

This was a snorkel walk in spot on our beach. i saw the most sea turtles here and the most fish.
