we didn't want to mention anything because we didn't want o jinx anything.. but Chelsey and I have slowly been house hunting for a while now. With the market so low its a great time to buy. Anyways....

So we have been in escrow for a couple weeks now and got our final loan approved today. They only thing that can mess it up is if the owner refuses to fix the repairs that we want and backs out. (we don't think he will because has to sell it and he's going to have to fix them for anyone)

As it has tenants in it right now that we might let stay until June, as our current lease isn't up so move in isnt till then but ya.. here is the house that we bought!

Snow day with the pups!

Went up to Tahoe for the weekend. took the dogs for a walk to play in the snow.

Junior

I realize that the last post wasnt very pleasant. I really really apologize. Thats what happens when you blog without thinking. We were very very sad, and things are getting better as the days go on. Thank you for the well wishes. Many people have requested pictures of juniors, so here are two of them.

RIP Junior "June Bug" Mint.

You will be missed.

?

I am not sure what people know..

on thursday 2/9/2011 Our cat junior mint came in for the night look sluggish. He wasnt moving much, and he threw up. We assume we had eating somesthing bad, and let him sleep out the night. Friday night he continued the same and we fouund a woud on him.

Saturday morning 2/12/2011, we found out junior mint was shot by some kind of bullet.someone in our neighborhood shot our cat......
he went through major surgury. they removed 8in of intestine. and flushed him out from infection 5 times.

sunday we visited, he seemed okay, but was drinking, and still on iv fluid.

monday, chelsey visited, he showed good symptoms, loved me. seemed happy.

tuesday morning, junior mint passed away

This is very blunt and to the point.. but he is our first born son.. and we are a mess..



we loved him and we're not sure what to do.

Up Date

So im back in school again. Night classes this time. But they should all be easy, so we will see how it goes.

Been working 6 days a week for the last 2 months. Finally putting a stop to it.

got to go up riding finally because i wasn't working up yesterday.

Here is the recap of that. You can see Chelsey a few times. Shes getting good at this snowboarding thing.



Enjoy.

eggs

well its always busy around winter time. and sense i work on the internest i seem to enjoy being on it less and less on my free time. Simple solution. just do it at work while i get paid.

Anyways.. Not much new to report.

Got a GoPro for Christmas(which I love) so i will be making more and more vids as time goes on. heres the first one. I had a friend from Washington fly out for my birthday and we did some hiking in tahoe.

just one little run.

Out of bounds at Homeood with Migs. from Levi Guthrie on Vimeo.

We hiked out of bounds at homewood. First GoPro vid... EVER!!

and then for Staci, here are some other pictures i took. Im trying to save up for a D60.

I know I know.. we never post. Christmas and New years have been busy, and fun. We've been trying to get back on track for going back to work and school.

The reason for this post is that I, Chelsey, have started a blog. This blog is primarily about my life as a teacher, and will prob have very little pictures, but lots of funny stories, plus lots of complaining about the difficulties I have to deal with.

Feel free to read if you are interested :)
