Family Photos

The other day we went and did family photos. I love the fall, many wonderful things in our family happen in the fall. So naturally I wanted fall photos and Joey is growing his hair out again so we wanted pics before it hit the major "fro" stage. We brought the dogs too and we could only get Sierra's attention. So here is the Burgers 08'.


Our Family!!

My Little (Big) Helper!!!

When Joey is tired, he's tired and not much will wake him up. Well the other day (on his week off) he was taking a nap on the couch. Well I had a ton of laundry to fold and thought I would ask Joey for his help. He said "OK" and came in to our room and laid on the bed and fell back asleep, leaving me to fold the laundry, defeating my original plan. But he looked so cute sleeping I had to show everyone.

Although he's 6'3" he looks fairly small curled up sleeping.

Play Time

Joey and I found a cool dog park near our house, it's one of our favorite places to take the dogs. The other day we went there for an hour or so and soon found out that the water is getting cold fast, but that didn't stop Sierra from having fun. Kayla is still scared of the water a little after a couple of near drowning experiences.
She loves playing fetch.

One Year Already!!!!

Wow, one year came and went too fast. For those people who say the first year of marriage is the hardest, they're crazy. Ours was wonderful and we look forward to many many more. For our anniversary Joey surprised me by "kidnapping" me and going to Telluride, CO. He had rented a condo in the woods, it had it's own hottub (which was very nice cuz it was freezing cold up there) and a very pretty view. We took the gondola to the top of the mountains and wanted to go hiking, but sadly we were under dressed (don't forget it's still pretty nice in Grand Junction). So we opted for dinner and a nice romantic night together, I couldn't of asked for more. In the morning we took a drive over looking Telluride and took some very pretty pictures with our new camera that we got for our anniversary.

This is our condo where we stayed. We're standing on the little walking trial that lead to the gondola.

Telluride from the gondola. It's a very cool little town if you ever have the chance to visit.

This is a night shot from our condo. I though it was pretty sweet.

Our Summer

Seeing how this is our first blog, I decided to just give a run down of our summer. We we're very busy. Joey took about a month off of work so we could spend time together. It was wonderful, I really don't see my husband very much and it was the first time we had spent more then a week together, ever. Needless to say we did a lot of stuff and had a blast!!!

My dad came to visit and we went to Moab. It was FUN!!! Here is us on the river and below is us out Jeeping.

We also got a lot of mt. biking, hiking and camping in. Here's some more pics.

We look like a homeless family on the river.

DIRT BIKES!!!

This is our 14 miles bike ride through some wicked mountains, I thought we would die there, but all was great!!!

Finally, the best picture for last. Joey and the dogs all tuckered out up camping.
