We had a baby!!

After four months of marraige we proved to the world that it is possible to have a baby in that short of time!! We had a beautiful baby girl, born on Easter Sunday. Chance keeps resisting the name of Bunny Foo Foo to celebrate the day she was born, but we all think that its a great name. hehe. We are acually leaning towards Josie, but if you have any more creative ones let me know. My dad and brothers were able to come see it too, and then we played a mad game of baseball, where I discovered I was allergic to the new kittens born this week too. I looked like a Chineese woman by the time I was all through. I wish I would have gotten pics but I guess your imagination will have to do!


Here is the beautiful baby...she would never leave her mother's side...

A New Member in the Family

So the Rasmussen family is pleased to announce an addition to their family....it is....I know you are excited....Jasper!!!

















We all chipped in and purchased a miniture horse so the current grandkids maybe someday our kids can enjoy! I was a little skeptical at first of this horse, but as you can see from the pictures it is so stinkin cute! Its only a year old, but I don't think it will get much bigger. It will be able to carry 80 lbs on its back but the cool part is its able to pull up to 500 lbs, so we want to get a wagon that will pull all the grandkids..and maybe the grownup kids (hehe).


Chance is trying to ride it..I think its a little small to hold Chance! I think Chance scarred it for life cuz after we were done with this picture it pitched a fit and then it wouldn't come near me after that. I hope it forgets the trajic experiences by the next time we see him!


























As you can see its half our size!

Jazz Game!

Me and Chance lucked out on Tuesday night to see the Jazz beat the Houston Rockets. The two best parts about it was first, it was free, except for the $3.25 water that I purchased at the game (I know, its ridiculous). And the really great part was that we were in the third row!! We were right by all the VIP people,that got drinks and candy and their very own personal little tv so they could watch replays. Even though we weren't in VIP seating, we still felt special. I have never had such good seats to any sporting event. And what made it even better was that we won! Go Jazz!















The Jazz warming up..















It was hard to take a good pic of everyone with them moving around so much.. But here is a nice close up of Boozer
















I could not believe how tall Yao Ming was, if you think he is tall in this pic, he is even bigger in person!















Half time show: this guy was amazingly flexible, he fit in that small little box. it was fun and a little unreal to watch.

















Okur and Brewer

Spring Break

This past weekend UVU had Spring Break and Chance somehow managed to get a day and a half off work so we could take a little break from life. We went to St. George and camped, hiked, went to the temple, swam, and just chilled. We were sad to come back after such nice weather and come home to wind and rain and the real world, but it was fun.
Here are some pics...





We went on a hike called Angel's Landing at Zion's National Park

This is at the start of our Journey...




















Us hiding out in a cave















Chance and his best friend Josh acting like monkeys




















We finally made it to the top!
















Coming down...














We wanted to prove how tall the mountain was that we hiked, in reality its a lot taller than this picture makes it out to be.

Still Kids!




So Friday night we went to a place called Jump On It in Pleasant Grove. It was a triple date with Ryan and his girlfriend, and Andrew and some girl he asked, she was cool, but that is a given because her name is Sarah (Andrew tried about seventeen girls before he found one just willing to go with him...jk..well, not really, but still). I realized once again what a big kid I married...he was jumping like a wild man. After tag and a game of basketball monkey style, we also learned that we aren't getting any younger, we were beat. But we ended up having a little fun on the kiddie rides. We are both big kids. I love it, and I love my hubby!

Quick Update!

I know you all think we probably dropped off the face of the planet but I swear we are alive!!! married life is treating us very well and it is so nice to be together all the time...we both are staying very busy with school and work and other things, but we have managed to have fun together. I'm just ashamed of myself for not taking any pictures and so I don't have alot to show for my life. Some exciting things..we were able somehow manage second row tickets to Rascall Flatts, my favoirte country band, and now on the 24 of March we managed to get thrid row tickets for the Jazz game. We are excited! I will be sure to take plenty of pictures then! Other than that, we have just been doing crazy things like almost getting killed snowmobiling (jk) and being the crazy couple everyone tries to avoid! Jk... We are so blessed to have all that we have, our families, our home, and our love! We couldn't ask for more. I will also try and post wedding pics up as soon as I steal them back from my parent's house. Peace for now!
