Marcus got home from a 14 day roll on a Thurs I was in Moab coming home on Fri. He arranged a surprise trip to Manti for the weekend, I did my very first live session which was amazing. It was so fun to spend some time together and have a getaway. </div>

Since Marcus was gone on fires I got to play with his family in Moab. We had such a fun time going on hikes, playing in the pool, shopping, and hanging out. I am so glad I have great in laws who were so nice to let me tag along on this adventure!Love Duckieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04072204785925373408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876859248820203059.post-87507415500923341882013-08-27T14:51:00.000-07:002013-08-27T14:53:30.062-07:00Summer Jobs<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This summer Marcus did firefighting again. He decided he wanted to be on Dromedary again because it has to do more with what where he wants to end up. His crew boss from last year called him in before the season had started and asked him to be the saw boss. At the end of the season his crew had a dinner in Salt Lake, we went and were surprised to find that he earned the first Dromedary Firefighter of the Year award. I am so proud of him and his accomplishments. This boy is one amazing guy! </span></div>

This Wednesday March 7 he got a call saying he was accepted at Lone Peak Fire Crew as a Fire Technician one for a Dromedary Crew Position, basically he is a fuels and fire prevention assignment. He will start there on April 30. He still has lots of schooling to go but this is a big step into his future career! I am so proud and excited for him! I will need lots to do this summer where he could be gone for days at a time!

When McKenzie was younger she picked up this phrase that she would so endearingly call you when you pulled a dumb move. Whenever you had one of those awkwardly less intelligent moments, to McKenzie, you were a "duck" or you had a "duck brain" or occasionally you were not using you "duck brain." (I know, a little inconsistent with the meaning there) Since growing up McKenzie had a tendency to live up to the many meanings of this loving phrase that she had coined. She quickly became not only the originator of the phrase but the mascot as well, as her family awarded her the title of Ducky. McKenzie embraced her appointed title and her nickname has since been the root of many a tease and a good time. Just before we were married I was informed by her brother-in-law Mike that I was officially the Mallard. At our wedding we embraced the duck theme and included a set of rubber love duckies in our decorations and have since enjoyed the subtitle to our marriage. The "love ducky" chapter began.Love Duckieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04072204785925373408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876859248820203059.post-21185937126314563382011-10-09T23:40:00.000-07:002011-10-09T23:48:12.514-07:00Here we go!To get us started off on this blogging adventure I just want to post a few pics from some good memories this summer.
