So its "Been a While", so what...

I just thought I would add some stuff to my blog today and show everyone that Blogging isnt only an everyday thing but that it can be and enjoyable every 3 months thing. What am i going to talk about? life for the past 3 MONTHS!

Ok so first off is school.

My summer calculus class was a bit tough and crazy but I did good, it was a 16 week class that was crammed into 8 weeks total. It worked out well for me but between work at the bike shop full time and school work Angella got a bit bored to say the least. I just had a 3 week break from school recently but now I am 2 weeks deep into my fall semester, and life is busy as ever.

Cool stuff...

Although our summer has been busy we have been able to do some fun and exciting stuff. Having Tim in town makes at least one person we know in Logan we can hang out with and have a good time, and boy some times was it a good time. I guess we keep Tim's sanity stable when he is not hanging out with Girls and playing video games. Tim thought that construction cone riding would be a great idea... unfortunately the cone did not.

Enough Said...

If you would like to see more of our evening picture adventures check out Angella's photo albums on face book.

During the summer we would also make many random short trips to Idaho to hang out with friends and family at things like reunions, rodeo's, and parties.










We have also settled into our home a bit more this summer. After many sleepless nights we have finally upgraded our bed from a full to a queen, thanks to Angella's sister and brother in law. It actually has a frame and headboard! In addition to that we got a TV stand From our friends Brea and Shannon and a bigger TV from Brent and Catherine. We had to modify the stand a bit to get the new TV in. Thanks to everyone who has helped us furnish our home.

We have also enjoyed our time in our wonderful family ward in Logan. Our sunday school class here is awesome. We have 11(soon to be 10) 12-13 year olds in our class. We will be loosing one of the boys who is turning 14 soon. Well with that said there all so good that I can say they are nothing like my classes were when I was that old.

So I am trying out this new diet that our home teacher is on. Its the Ice Cream Diet. He was telling us how healthy it is. He said he gets everything he needs by eating ice cream. Instead of milk and cereal he eats ice cream and cereal, its pretty much the same thing except you enjoy it more. If you need to get you fruit you put peaches on your ice cream. At least you get all your dairy in the process. well we had a good laugh about it last week. Today he came up to us at church and said "wait here I've got something for you" he came back with a quart of ice cream and some Cheerios. I am so ready for this diet.

Anyway thats all for now but it has been fun and I hope we have proved that blogging every 3 months can be a good thing if you do it right.

Blog this and that (Warning lots of Pictures)


So at the request of so many people, mainly Catherine, I am going to update my blog. Face book has been good and all but hopefully my update will encourage others to update their blogs too( Dave and Kierstin). As I was thinking of what to write about I decided to make one big nasty unethical post of everything that has happened since my last post.

So here we go. Angella survived her last month living alone in this strange town of Logan, Utah, in fact I think she spent more of February in Pocatello, ID than in Logan. We went through the Idaho Falls Temple on February 28th for Angella's Endowments, it was an amazing experience for both of us. One that we will always remember. Thank you to everyone who showed their support.





















We survived the wedding although I did almost choke and die on the wedding cake that was so graciously stuffed up my nose. It was also a very cold morning so thanks to those of you who stuck around for a few pictures. We were thrilled to see every one that was able to come and congratulate us.




















So on to the part I know all of you want to know about, the honey moon. So our honey moon has a funny start. All day Angella's family members and especially her sister were asking me where we were staying that night, i knew something was fishy so i didn't tell anyone. Then Angella's sister had bugged Angella about it and even though I warned Angella she made me tell her sister where we were staying, so I guess her sister went and decorated the room I had reserved in my name. Well the joke ended up on them. When we showed up at the hotel to check in we got our room upgraded to a king size executive for free, the room we ended up in was not the room that was decorated. Angella thought that her sister was kidding the whole time about decorating the room because we hadn't checked in yet, so she called her right when we got the room to say "haha very funny there is nothing in our room." and her sister exclainmed "WHAT?" so her sister and accomplice had to come to the hotel at 12 midnight and clean up the room they had decorated for us, and then dumped it all in our room, they were very embarrassed. Thou quite funny.
On to moab.
So our trip to Moab went well even though it took us until 8 pm Sunday night to get there. The best part about it was getting away from the snow and getting some sun. In the mean time it snowed a foot and a half in Logan. We enjoyed tons of things while we were there although I am still disappointed that you cant go white water rafting in early march.
Some of our activities are as follows:
Hiking in Arches National Park.

Horse back riding.
(My horse was called "slim jim" AKA "Widow Maker"

Hummed tour.
(We were the only ones on the tour that day.)

scenic drives.
(funny thing to find on a scenic drive)

and the common cold.

Since the Honeymoon I have been working part time and staying busy with school. I got a job at Sunrise Cyclery, Logan's oldest and best dedicated bike shop. I have enjoyed my work so far.
check us out: Sunrise Cyclery
Angella has been super excited to fill our apartment with all the gifts that we received. It is quite stocked full of wonderful things. She has also been very busy with work, and trying to get sleep through my obnoxious snoring. Her sister and her are in charge of the Stoor family reunion this year and are hard at work organizing that.
Well finals are this next week and i am excited to have a month off to have fun before I start Calculus this summer. My grades aren't looking as good as last semester but for not taking a math class for five years i can settle with a A- or a B+ in my TWO math classes.
well that is all for now now I expect to hear from all of the other blog slackers soon. Love ya all,
-Josh and Angella

Angellas 22 birthday. .


Well I had to work on my birthday and Josh and I had class so we figured to celebrate the night before by going to dinner. It was pretty good considering I had had the stomach flu the previous 2 days, ( I was just grateful to finally keep something down. I had a good night.
I woke up this morning planning on going to work and then to class and it being just a normal day, but no great old josh came through like always and after class he had taken me back to his apartment to find Tim and there other two roommates surrounded by a cake and ice cream, what fun I was definitely surprised.

The boys had way to much fun lighting the candles I think they like the concept of fire!


Were just lucky they didn't burn down the apartment it was pretty smoky, boys will be boys.
Well the cake, angel food cake was good and so was the ice cream Josh made the cake all by himself, not to bad. He enjoyed cutting it with his big old electric bread knife, silly guy.
