MSU Football

It was no BSU Football games, but it was fun to get out and go to a big game. One of Josh's accounts has this Huge tailgate party and he invited us to come and he would get us tickets for free! It's a pretty small stadium I believe it only holds 10 to 15k people.

I'm excited to announce that Jill and Brad are expecting a bundle of joy coming May 25th!!! Many many years a lot has happened in our lifes and I can't believe that we are old enough to now have the chance to experience having our own children.




I Love her so much and so excited for this baby to arrive! Now It will just be some more pictures to add to our already huge collection of pictures of the two of us. I'm excited for this new phase in our lives. CONGRATS JILLYN AND BRAD!! you're going to be the best mom!

Not a fan


I'm not liking me new job at all! He is a young and greedy, cheap dentist. I'm the only one working up front and my job title is office manager! umm no! I don't know how to do lots of the work that needs to be done, and no one is there to train me! So...I'm thinking this job isn't going to work out. I have sent my resume to some other medical offices and haven't heard back yet, and there is some job openings for a nanny, so I'll see what happens, but I just can't keep working at this office. There are just too many holes and they don't do things that I think they should to have that office run smoothly.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!

So Josh and I woke up to snow. The people around here say it will start to snow all the time now but won't really stick around until November! So we are lookin at having a white Thanksgiving. It's also just really cold here and the wind isn't too bad because we live in a valley surrounded by huge mountains. The news reports that it will snow off and on all weekend. The pictures are taken off of my front porch so you can kinda see the really cute street I live on.
Good thing I lived in Rexburg and kinda know what to expect when the snow comes and cold.
It makes us super excited for ski season to start, which is early November!!

So we finally have tv and our very own internet!! yay and I got the job I had mention earlier. It's not exactly what I was looking for, but it will do hopefully. I'll post a picture of the office cuz it's really nice and high tech.

Mother Dear

Today is mom's birthday!! What a wonderful woman she is. She loves to spoil her family, staying active and raising a great family. I couldn't have asked for a better person to me my mom. We are all grateful for what she does and the love she has for her family and grand babies.

I don't have the actual picture of THE day on this computer, but this is close enough to the date. Anyways today October 5 is one year since Josh propose to me on the steps of the salt lake temple at night in the rain. It was beautiful even though his plan went to the dump. I know it's not as long as some of you old married folks :) but it's big to us, well at least me:)

So Bored

Since we have moved here one of the first things we did was call to get our cable and internet set up. THey said it would be 2 weeks until they can get to us. So I'm stuck here all day while josh is at work and I have no Internet or tv. Well we do get cbs and pbs. YAY for me. And even now and then we can steal Internet from someone, like I'm doing now :) I try to keep myself moving but it's hard when you don't know what to do. I did have an interview 2 weeks ago with a dentist, but that was a disaster. It's someone who I wouldn't ever work for. SO...I am actually job hunting and almost about to settle and just get a job at the gap or something, but then I spotted a really promising opening at a dentist office in the next town over and so I hope to hear from them soon. keep your fingers cross!! On the bright side I have been reading a lot and now onto the 3rd book of the twilight series.Josh is doing great he keeps really busy with work. He really is loving his job now and is just a boost to his confidence. He's bummed that he won't really hunt at all this year, but when we went to Great Falls last week for his work he made sure to point our ALL of the deer and antelope that are EVERYWHERE!! It's been nice though just the two of us. Oh and the gas prices here are pretty cheap last I saw it was done to $3.40 so that's good compared to everything else here is so expensive.

Hey everyone!! we've been in Bozeman for a week. Mom stayed with us and that was a huge help for us to have her. We are adjusting but I still feel like i'm on a vacation. I'll post pictures of our house when i get it organized. I'm counting the days until thanksgiving! :) only in montana would you find a bus with snow cat tires
We went to the only temple in Montana, 2 hours a way, but it was very beautiful

New Beginnings

This is going to be our new home while we are in Bozeman. I wasn't able to go to Bozeman when Josh was there and so I trusted him to pick a home for us. I think he did beyond a great job. I just hate that this area is the up and coming wealthier area and so that makes everything really expensive. It's 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath and just under 1600sq ft so it's pretty big. I'll post inside pictures later when I actually get to see the inside.

Given it a try



So I'm jumpin on the wagon and giving this book a try. I'm still not too sure about the whole vampire love story, but EVERYONE always talks about how good it is. So I'll read it and see.

First Move

So Josh left today for Montana to start work. :( We LOADED his work van with a ton of stuff for him to put in the storage unit. Hopefully next load he takes we will be able to drop it off at our new place instead of a storage unit. This week won't be as bad cuz he comes home for a meeting on Friday, I'm not looking forward to a LONG week without him next week. So until I move to Bozeman I'll be staying with good 'ol mom and dad.


P.S. We are selling my Civic if anyone is interested in it just give me a call or leave a comment :)

Wild Willdens are moving to the wild west

(A COUPLE MOST POSTINGS AFTER THIS ONE, I GOT A LITTLE BEHING)


So Josh and I will be moving to Bozeman, Mt. It's about a 7-8 hour drive north east of Caldwell. His work gave him a great opportunity to go over there and succeed better. He leaves Tuesday and I hope to be moved over by the 20th of sept. It's not a permanent move but we don't know how long we'll stay.It is a beautiful place and has the best ski resorts in a lot closer drive. We will rely heavily on the church there. It will be hard but we are looking forward to our fun adventure together. PLEASE COME AND VISIT US!!

Birthday boy

It was a good friend Rogers birthday over the weekend and all of the usually gang got together to celebrate. We ended up at Taylor's house and played rock band for ever. I never played before so i was a little hesitant but it was soooo much fun once you get into it and not be afraid. Happy 25th Birthday Roger.

Miss Molly


It finally happened, after the passing of my parents dearest dearest Austin they have decided to get another puppy. Here is Molly, she is a mini schnauzer and just as cute and perfect for my parents as Austy was. Mom bought her and surprised Dad that night with her. He just loves her to pieces. We think she will loose all that puppy fur and she will end up being pretty grey and white.

Finally we went camping

The Jakobson clan went camping this past weekend. It was the first camping trip since Josh and I have been married. We were hoping to go more often but we've been just so busy, it's ridiculous. It was Cory's birthday so he picked to go to Deadwood Reservoir. It was really beautiful and not a lot a people. We had to drive an out of control dirt road for 25 miles after already driving about an hour. But I did manage to still fall asleep on it. It was a fun weekend to spend with my family.It's never a dull moment. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORY!!!!


Jenny made Cory's birthday desert, apple crisps with fresh apples, it was so delicious.
Brent brought up his hameck and Josh just happen to fall asleep in it.

We boating most of Saturday, the water was NEVER not smoothe, and played games in between.
The camping boys

These girls are 16 and I'm only 100 punds

Josh and I have been obsessed with the Olympics this year! Gymnastics has been one of our favorites, grant it the chinese girls are really good, but who does the Chinese government think they are fooling. I bet the average age on the team is maybe 13, which the rules state they must be turning 16 this year to participate. I say blood test and then give the GOLD to the USA girls.

Temple




We had an exhausting but wonderful Saturday. We started the day by going to an early session at the Boise temple and then it was straight to the Idaho Falls temple open house. It was a beautiful temple ,but aren't they all. It was a new modern feel to it. It wasn't like entering the Boise temple, but obviously it's not dedicated so that feeling won't be there.


This is how Josh was feeling by the end of the day. He was a good sport as always.
I new Jill was going much earlier that same day, but tho and behold they came back to take pictures and we ran into each other and we obviously took a picture together! I love her!
