CATCH UP :)

Okay so here is a time line of some pictures since we have been married until now..... First we will start at the end of May on the way back from Spokane. My lovely wife wanted to pick some wild flowers, so she did :) (Can't tell she is pregnant yet...)
In June we went on an overnight backpacking trip with our friend Kelly. At night before the trip Emily and I camped in Glacier National Park and here is a picture at night.
Here is Kelly and Em eating lunch during the hike.
This is a view from our campsite of Arrow Lake. The book Night of The Grizzly, talks about the poor lady that was killed here nearly 45 years ago.

New places.

So after the wedding and after the honeymoon I found a new job at Summit Preparatory School in Kalispell, MT. I am fortunate that I not only get to work with students again, but as a side benefit I get to see my wife sometimes during the day as she is a therapist for one of the girls teams.
I spend all day with the boy's team that I am on once they get out of school, until they go to bed. We hike, take backpacking trips, lift weights, play football, etc.. It is a rewarding job but it does take a lot out of a person mentally. So far so good though as I am about 2 months in and doing well.

Verana 3

Ok just a few more pictures...
A view from the Tea House in the early morning.
Another view of the Tea House.

Ok this little guy is Coatimundi and he scared the crap out of us the first night. He came into our room and knocked over a glass cover on a candle because he was trying to get the banana that was left on the table. While he did get it and eat it, he is harmless.
We did kayak to Yelapa and this is a waterfall right in town, although you don't want to jump off (not enough water in the pool at the bottom.) Yes that is me climbing up anyway...
This is Our Lady of Guadalupe in PV
If you enlarge the picture you should be able to see the MASSIVE iguana in the tree.
A map that took us to a restaurant in PV that took hours to find. Upon arriving, it was awful, so we left.
A sunset in PV the final night we were in Mexico



More Verana....

Here are a few more pictures from our honeymoon.
The pool overlooking the ocean
This is our lunch spot every day. The lunch chef made some fantastic mousse as part of the whole desert. I liked it so much he made a fresh batch of mousse just so I could have it later!
A waterfall which you could climb up and then jump off. It was a lot of fun!

Salsas that we learned to make in our cooking class (and now have the recipes to!)
The chef who taught us the recipes that we learned. We used all of the salsas that night for taco night which is fairly famous in the area.
I like this picture so I added it.
