Busy Busy Busy

We are just shy of 3 weeks away from our 1st anniversary....which is completely crazy! But I like to think of how lucky we've been. The first 2 months we were married we didn't exactly have jobs...but really--it was great, we got to spend all day every day together--we got caught up on every tv show there is out there, well pretty much. And then we got to make a little bit of money working at UPS and then moved back up to Rexburg. And actually it was a blessing in disguise that we took a little bit of a "break" from school because we both got good jobs...and we were able to save money....we worked 8-5 and then had the rest of the night to do whatever we wanted together. I like to reminisce about the good old days...because now that Adam is back in school....AND working--we don't really see each other anymore. He is so busy all the time...and I am so proud of him--I just feel really bad. Pretty much his day goes like this: he wakes up at 6, goes to work at 7 for a couple hours then goes to class...sometimes he goes back to work...or he just goes straight to the library until maybe 8 or 9 at night....then he eats, and then finishes his night reading or writing something for class. If he is lucky we can throw in a quick 20 minute episode of friends. He's taking close to a billion classes...and staying strong in the A range....but it'll all be over in December...so we're getting close. And as for me...I'm lucky if I'm up by 7:30 to be at work at 8 (not a morning person at all) to browse the internet for cute crafty ideas all day, and then when I get home I catch up on The Hill's or Friends. Rough...rough life!

Summer is coming to an end....

It's been a while since this blogs been written on so I thought I'd give a quick update on whats been going on in the Gooch abode....

To start, we got our first pet….our fish Fletcher.

And sadly to say –he didn’t last very long, I might’ve accidently filled up the tank a little much when I was cleaning it out, and the next morning when I went to go feed him I couldn’t find him…because he had jumped out of his tank…and dried up and died on Adam’s sunglasses, so that was kinda gross.

Secondly….we got the cutest little turtle from the Farmers, Adam named him Shredder, and well…he didn’t eat for about a week, so we pawned him off on Asa and snagged one of his turtles. This one is a lot healthier. Adam named him Keanu (he’s a reeve’s turtle) which was good because Shredder died like 3 days later….Keanu’s still kickin…

We finally got a chance to get everyone back together to have one more bon fire before the snow starts to come in….we just happen to build the fire where there were bullets all over the ground…we got lucky with only one bullet shooting off…

And lastly we had an amazing Labor day weekend. Adam and Eric's boss gave us a really good deal on one of his cabin's in Island Park. So us and the Farmer's took advantage, and it was so fun...and then the next day we finally got to go to Yellowstone, lucky for us it was maybe 50 degrees outside...so we got to freeze our little tooshi's off and play smack the bull....

Adam & Michelle Gooch Vacation (Post)

Well our vacation from Colorado is over. We had a great time. We arrived on Friday morning, with Mike's new Lancer (shark). We just relaxed and caught up with Mike and his wonderful life. Saturday we played in a softball tournament with Mike for UPS. Mother and Father showed up which Mike voluntarily invited. All of us received scraps and bruises for our hard work and great skills. But we let a couple other teams beat us because we felt sorry for them. Ok...we sucked, but had one win. We then went to a Rockies game in which they let the other team win as well. Aww who am I kidding, they suck too. After the game mom childishly smacked old ladies with a rolled up poncho, and threw peanuts at other cars as we drove home...sober. Sunday church and olympics. Monday Aarons house with Rockband the game.

The Adam & Michelle Gooch Vacation (Pre)

Well hello! Been awhile since our last blog fest. Not much has happened this summer. We have just been enjoying the nice weather and company...of eachother. We have just been working and saving money for school once again in September. We have also been saving money to take a trip to Colorado to bless our family with our presence. Lucky lucky people. Our scooter has been great, we have saved mucho on gaso. I am thinking about getting a leather jacket, chaps, and a helmet that match the scooter. I would be so cool if I did that. Grades came out and of course I got all A's. That is how the Gooch's do it...ok maybe not. Well, we are taking a trip to Colorado in two days and we are way excited. I don't know if we are more excited to be away from work or to watch the Rockies loose. Anyway, we will let ya'll know.

Go America

Well hello fellow bloggers. All two of you. We have had a great 4th of July. Michelle and I drove to famous Rupert Idaho to experience there (once in a lifetime experience parade), Michelles words. It sure was an experience that I will see once. Just kidding...but seriously. We then joined the family in a mini reunion for a swim and a buffet at the cousins house. The rich cousin, that we stole lots of goodies from. Well, I would have if I wasn't so freakin honest and my values were different. So lets just imagine it. Okay don't imagine it because thoughts turn into actions. Just forget I said anything at all. We then went to a pretty good fireworks show put on by a local farmer. Crops must have been good this year. Overall, a great experience for the Gooch couple and Fennell family. The very next day, we drove to Salt Lake City to pick up our very new toy. A Scooter!!! We decided since the government wants to steal all our allowance by charging so much for gas, that they will buy us a scooter. (Stimulus check, suckers). We got a pretty good deal and we save a ton on gas. It gets about 100 miles to the gallon and gets up to 60 mph. Our friends are jealous. All three of them. Well they should be because my wife is so freakin hot driving it. Anyway, that is the news for now. School ends in two weeks...finally.
