Also Chad has a better job down here that pays better and has benefits!! I mean who doesn't want benefits?? Anyways we are super excited to be back and be here with all of you AZ people
Ok so I know I promised you all pictures and so I am going to show you what we have been up to and soe of the sites of Colorado and what not. So enjoy the pictures! ( I will add little stories to explain pictures just for you!
This is the Stanley Hotel. This is also the place where Stephen King stayed and flimed the Shinning. And if that doesn't ring a bell this is the hotel they used in Dumb and Dumber! We got to go inside and look at some of the rooms and look at old photos, it was so cool!
The Beautiful Colorado Rockies!

Chads Parents and Us
Walked around Estes Park and went into this one store and had this HUGE Stuffed bear. It was two of Me! So y mom thought it would be cute to take a picture with it, my mom is so funny!
Had to take this one from my brother, Colton. He LOVES Football. He thought it was pretty sweet that we got to see the Bronco's Stadium. To bad we didn't go in or anything. Oh well.
So this is where we stayed while we were up in Greeley, CO. It was such a pretty house. I wish is was ours. OH well will get a house just as nice later once chad becomes a fire fighter.
So this was pretty out of the ordinary. Don't see much of that in AZ.
When they have storms the clouds are not only dark and gray they form into these crazy shapes. From what I remember we had a Tornado warning that night.
When you see Hail, you will want to get in your basement. When it started to hail I freaked out. I was so scared, I thought we were going to have a tornado touch down, but it didn't, thank goodness!
More Hail...
And More Hail!
So Panda Express is selling some of there sauces and so Chad and I and his mom decided one night that we would try making orange chicken. So I pulled out our deep fryer that we got from the bridal shower and made some Home Made Orange Chicken. No its not as good as Panda's but it was still good! Looks delicous huh?
This is and intresting story. Once morning I woke up and started to get out of bed and my hand brushed up against the blanket and I got this really painful feeling on my middle fingure. It hut sooooo bad. The only thing I could think of was that a spider or something bit me. Well days went by and it still hurt like heck and was still swollen. If you compared it to my other middle fingure it was about double the size. I couldn't do anything with out if killing. Like one day chad and I were in the Kitchen cooking something and I went to go lift my hands and I whacked my fingure on the counter and it SERIOUSLY brought me to my knnes. I was in so much pain and agony. I was bawling. I hurt so bad and I just wanted it to go away. So I went and talked to a pharmacist and he told me to put this cream on it, the strongest stuff they had over the counter, and that if it wasn't helping that I should go see a doctor. ( well I dont have insurance so I didnt want to fork out the money if I oucld just take care of it myself) Well it wasn't getting better so I decided to dig at it with a neddle and see if I could get in puss out. Well I was victorious! Then it finally started to heal. TO this day I still don't know what bit me but I'm glad I was able to take care of it!
This is the cream that the pharmacist told me to use. But its was useless and a waste of money but at least I tried it. The picture doesn't do much justice but it was REALLY BAD! And HURT like nothing else!
Chad got a job (but it wasn't paying enough) being a Security Officer. Isn't he so Handsom in his Uniform. Don't you just love a man n Uniform...LOL
All Offical!!
This is the park Chad had to do Secruity at almost every night! He hated going there. Some nights he would work a 7 hour shift from 10pm to 5am or 8pm to 8am. I hated it just as much as him cause I would have to go to bed alone. I hate not having him by myside when I go to bed. But I knew that him having a job would mean we would have some income. So I had to look n the bright side of it.
Us at the park

This park was all Statue, so no play ground or anything, just statues. This park had some of the most Intresting statues...oh just wait. Look futher down...
I Believe this was called the Rhino Man. Chad decided to go and pick his nose for him...haha

Well Colorado was wonderful and Cool but Chad and I are sure glad to be back here in good old AZ! Even though its really really HOT! I Heart AZ
