Memory Lane

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

CaTcHinG uP










This last couple of weeks has really been a lot more fun than I thought it was going to be. First of all, my little sister Alison (shes 16) got some free movie tickets awhile ago and has been begging me to go to a movie with her. We ended up going to the movie Wall-E. There were some parts of the movie that were boring, but we made up for it by all of the fun we had. Its hard getting used to not seeing my family everyday, but its still so much fun when we do spend time together.
Yesterday I ended up going to the mall with my sisters and mom, and I found a way cute dress in sears for $4! I was so proud of myself! It was really fun to go shopping together and spend time together.
Finally, at the end of the day yesterday, one of my really good friends from high school called me and said that she was coming up from Boise. She asked me to go to lunch with her and spend some time doing whatever the next day. We got together this afternoon and it was a blast! Jacy locked her keys in the car, but other than that it was really fun. Their family owns a house right on the river, so we got in their boat and went up and down the river all afternoon. It was fun to be able to just relax and catch up with her. I miss her so much and wish that she could live a little closer!
Tomorrow is going to be filled with a lot of excitement. Destrys boss bougt us a whitewater rafting trip in montana. Im a little sad about missing the parade, and a little nervous, but im also excited for a new adventure! Im also getting ready for my 5k run tomorrow! I am a little nervous, but i have been running 4 1/2 miles everyday, so hopefully that will be enough to make it through the 3 mile run tomorrow! Wish me luck!~

Were still here!

Hey everybody. How are things going. The Orr clan is doing good. Were just staying busy. Liz is all done with summer school so she's keeping busy between cleaning the house, excersising, and chasing the dogs around. Work for me is really busy. It seems like we stay busy, enough to be home at six but not these past few weeks. It seems like we've just got dumped on. We have about 5 houses we have to trim out, about 3 spud cellars, and a bunch of other just little jobs here and there but everybody wants them done now. We also bought a new pickup. Here's a picture of it. So anyway were selling our Colorado. It's a 2005. Four door, silver, and with 74,200 miles. Were selling it for $17,000 obo so if anybody is interested you can call me at 317-0364. Anyway now that we got our sells pitch out of the way. I hope everybody is doing good and we hope to see everybody around. See ya.

He's home!

Well i decided after looking at everyones blog that we need to start taking more pictures and actually carrying a camera around with us!
Destry had to leave for Montana to go wire a spud pit on sunday. I know that a lot of wives go without their husbands for a lot longer than I did (he got back tuesday night) but it was my first time being alone without him, so needless to say I missed him a lot. There are a lot of times that i dont realize how much i take him being able to be home for granted! He is my best friend, and im definately glad that he can at least be home some of the time.
Well, i guess for me, I can say that summer is officially here after 11 o'clock tomorrow. Summer school ends and I have six weeks of nothing to do. I am so excited to have that extra time to maybe do some fun things and work around the house. I feel kind of bad about going that long without working, but i definately dont want to go back for another summer of missing all of the 4th and 24th of july events and slaving over a hot grill at big j's. I figured that 5 years was long enough to slave away for pretty much nothing :) Im not really sure about what im going to do as far as fun goes, but we'll see.

Our Kids

Our Kids
These are our two kids. Bailey is our yellow lab and we got her on the 21st of Feburary. She's so smart and full of energy. Then our newest edition is Rugar our little black lab. We just got him on the 26th of April. He's definately more out spoken then Bailey is and doesn't let her push him around. That's all the kid's were going to have for now.

About Me

We got married on the 4th of Janurary. We dated for almost 3 years so lets just say we really knew each other before we got married. We got married in the Idaho Falls Temple. Liz just graduated from BYU-Idaho with a bachelors in Elementary Education. She will be teaching 1st grade at South Fork Elementary School in Archer this coming fall. I just finished my final year of school going into being an Electrian. I still work for Xtreme Electric and still keeping really busy with summer coming.
