Okay so it has begun. We are doing P90X full time and for real now. In addition to that we are also starting to do a little MMA training on our our. We now have gloves for each of us and a free standing punching bag. It is a great way for us to become stronger and more well rounded in our workouts. We will have pictures of all this soon if we can find where our camera went to. We also take a little bit of time every day to do some ground grappling and work on our different submission skills. We are hoping that we will be able to become fit and strong and confident in our MMA skill so that we can find a local gym in the not to distant future and start to really improve and become good and talented fighters. Neither of us want to do it for more than a hobby or workout and self-defence but it is still fun and good to learn and become good at it. So if anyone has any ideas or suggestions for us just put it in a comment and we will look at it and see what we can do with it. Also on a side note we are going to be looking into getting our CCW licenses soon and will be doing so more training with that as well. So if you have anything to suggest with that let us know in a comment.
We need people to come and visit us here in Boise because it really is a really great place and more people need to experience it and see what we are talking about. We would be happy to take a day and show you around or go play on the water in the mountains or just relax. So if anyone want to come visit or is planning to come visit let us know before hand and we can try to plan something and get together.

Well Then....
Okay so we will start off by saying that we will post more. The last couple of weeks have been real eventful. We were given the chance to spend other peoples money. How nice is that?! We started off the day by going to a media store and were given 50 dollars each to spend how we wanted. We spent 75 on five videos and a game and put the other 25 on a gift card. Can't complain about that one bit. A few hours later we went downtown to a local skate shop and once again given 50 buck each. We had a custom skate board built for us that only cost us 70 cents of our own money. Again, can't complain about that. That night we all met up at Veterans park and we were treated to a BBQ that was catered by Goodwood BBQ. Free toys and free pulled pork! Now no one could complain. It was a very nice day and all together Stacy's company put just over 110,000 dollars into the local economy. So that was pretty nice too.
As I said we built a custom skate board. Well now we are teaching ourselves how to do a little bit of boarding. Stacy has fallen twice but nothing to bad that she wanted to stop. Alan has been lucky to not have fallen yet. So I would say that we are doing rather well all in all. We can ride around rather well and can stop and turn without difficulty. Some of the time we get a little shaky if there is a bunch of stuff on the ground or over larger cracks in the sidewalk but not doing to bad. We are starting to learn how to do and ollie but we are starting in the grass til we are able to get it down to where we can just do it and then we will move onto the cement.
We are planning on going and floating the Boise River in a week or two down the road. We are planning on getting some good big tubes and just going to go have some fun on the river one day so we can enjoy the cool water and the great outdoors and the nice warm sunshine all in one. We will try to have pictures so that everyone can see the beautiful river and area so that everyone wants to come and visit and play on the river with us. We are also planning on going shooting again in the near future. Alan needs to sight in his new rifle scope and try out all the upgrades that he has made to his rifle.
Stacy has applied to Boise State and is waiting to get her transcript from SUU so she can get accepted and see what kind of classes she needs and wants to take. She is going to decide what degree and what field of study she is going to go into soon as well. She is hoping that she will start in the spring of 2010. It would be a very short and easy commute to school because we live only five minutes form campous.
Well that is about all that we can think of to write and update on for now. We will have more pictures and videos coming up in the future about our different adventures and interests.

Time to READ
So we are starting to think that we don't have as many people reading this as we thought but thats just fine. As we said in our last post we are completely moved into our new arartment. Our address is 3905 Alpine St. in Boise. We are so much more at home and happier here than we thought we would be and we have only been here for two days. Still no pictures but they are soon to come.

Move Along
Hello everyone!
Just a quick post to let everyone know that we are officially moved over to the new apartment. We did it in 2 and a half days by ourselves and we are exhausted but very happy:)
Anyway, this is very short and lame but that's all I have time or energy to write at the time being. I will be posting pictures soon of my new hair cut and color and of the new place.
That's all for now!

What a couple of weeks!
Lets start with a couple of gooooood jokes.
Okay now down to the matter at hand.
Okay so its been a little while since our last update so here it goes. We have been so busy doing everything that we can. Last weekend we went to one of Boise's many b-e-a-utiful parks and took diesel for a walk and to chase the ducks and geese. We got there and saw all the little baby geese and just had to watch them and get real close. They are just so cute and fuzzy and you just want to grab it and snuggle it right up. (But stay away from MOM)
This week Alan has been playing with a Snorkelift Boom at work. It is a boom that extends out to fifty feet and is just too much fun to be driving around on. He used it to clean out the rain gutters at the apartments and also patch holes in the roof and holes in the eaves from birds nesting and squirals getting in and trying to live and eat through wires and right into some homes. Its quite a view looking over the city of trees from that high up.
And in other news, our little lap dog is no longer a little lap dog or ferret size like he thinks that he is. He is now five months old and 20 plus pounds! He is not the same kind of dog that we were told he is. We think that a larger dog (maybe a lab or such) got into the mix and has turned him into a good looking medium sized dog. We are excited to see just how large he will get by the time he is full grown. We also think that some type of gremlin or ewak is in there because he can be a little monster and looks the part some times.

The New Lowdown on the New Skinny
Okay so it is now official. We will be moving the the apartment complex this month. We will still be so close to everything that we can do anything we want. We will also be so much close to work now so that will help with gas money and everything else. We will be getting pictures of the new place and will put them up as soon as we can. We will be slowly moving over tho make it easier on us. It will be easier to move over time than all at once. By the time you are done reading this you will be tired of the word will.
