Where should we live?

so we came upon this website and it has you answer a bunch of questions and than based on what you answer it gives you your top 10 places to live. Funny thing is that Denver was our number 1...I guess we were right. I'm interested in hearing where your number 1 is?

I'm dreaming....

So ever since I was a kid I always wanted a "true" white christmas....not the fake one where they say that if there is snow on the ground than it is a White Christmas. I want to wake up on Christmas morning and as we are gathered around the yule log, sipping our mugs of hot cocoa see snow falling out of the sky. This year my wish finally came true...and it was glorious. Teresa about ripped my vocal cords out after my 30th rendetion of White Christmas...I just don't have the skills like Bing. Anyways...we got about 6 inches and the coolest part is that when we returned home from our parents someone had shoveled our driveway for us! How cool is that. We got dumped on again today another 10 inches, needless to say more shoveling and Teresa is now thinking that we all lied to her..."the snow never sticks, last year was a fluke" Hope everyone had an awesome Christmas...Have a safe New Years and lots of love.

The Nursery

It took a little longer than most but we finally finished our Nursery. We got the idea from a model home that we saw and though it took about 5 rolls of blue tape, 4 different tape-offs, 2 cans of caulking (FYI, use this to get the smooth lines when painting layers)and one week of work it was all worth it in the end. And, since it snowed all day yesterday (first major storm) we were stuck in the house and put together the crib and dresser. We have yet to decorate but that will come in the next few weeks. Teresa told me that a few of her friends, out of state, wanted to see what the nursery looked like so that is why I posted this.

Thanksgiving 2007

All the Riewerts' in CO went up to Steamboat Springs for Thanksgiving this year. We scored an awesome deal on a 2 bedroom 3 bath that sleeps 10 people at a ski-in/ski-out. This snow season so far has been horrible...infact up until the week of Thanksgiving it was an avg. temp of 60 deg in the mts so they couldn't even make snow. Even though there was no snow we still went hiking, played a ton of games, watched movies, ate a ton of food and went fly fishing. We also woke up at 4:30 to hit up the sales at Walmart on Friday Morning. The greatest thing about Walmart was that we were in a small town and there were was no huge crowd..only about 20 sleepy souls that braved the 0 deg temp(Something to remember next year!). Steamboat is an awesome place and is recommended to everyone...infact it is only a 5 hour drive from SLC. All in all it was good times had by everyone.

Hangin' with the Jagards

Over the past months we had the opportunity to hang with Teresa's family. From Joe's baptism and us surprising her parents in Utah to meeting up for Dinner in SoCal after Halvey's wedding. Good times have been had by all...if now we can only convince Teresa's dad that they should move to Utah...(Please vote on the poll and we will send him the results).

It is my privilege to introduce Mr and Mrs Ryan Halversen

The long awaited Teresa prego pics

So over the past couple months a whole bunch of our friends and family have wanted to see pics of Teresa pregnant. Unfortunalty she hasn't shown at all until last week where it seemed like her stomach was growing bigger and bigger night by night...it was quite amazing actually. For the first time she has had to wear her maternity pants but still as you can tell by the pics she isn't showing a ton yet. Our little girl is moving around everyday and is as active as can be. We can't wait for the end of Jan. She will be the best Christmas present ever!
