While crabbing in Washington, we went fishing, and all I caught were these little shark looking fish, it was great, I would throw my line in and about thirty seconds later, I would get a bite. I was told that they urinate through their skin and it makes your hands smell really bad, so I let the guy with the gloves touch them.














We went to Chittenden Locks and they have a fish ladder for the salmon, and they have glass in a small area so you can see the fish going up the ladder.


This was on our drive back to St. George from Arizona and we stopped at Lake Mary for a break.


When we were in Washington, Nate's mom had mentioned that Forks was only a couple of hours away. I figured we would never be that close again, so I convinced Nate that we needed to go and get a picture next to the sign.

The Russell's

We were married January 2, 2009, to kick off our marriage, we started school three days later at Dixie State College in St. George Utah. Nate is going to school and working at Washington Mutual, and I am a nursing student and will graduate in December!
For my birthday in February, Nate made me an awesome Funfetti cake we didn't have any candles so we stuck matches in the cake and I blew those out instead! After he surprised me and took me to the ballet, Sleeping Beauty. I had found an
advertisement for it in the mail and very sneakily left it out on the counter for three days, I must say my husband picks up on suttle clues quite well.
For spring break I went on a cruise with my sister's to Catalina Island and Mexico, while Nate stayed home and started his first week of work!
We are enjoying the beginning of our summer and the nice weather. Nate is taking a phlebotomy program over the summer and he is really excited to learn how to draw blood.
