Greetings from the land of Subaru Outbacks!!
Here are some of our New Year's Eve pics. Way too many pictures of Clarkage and myself. What can I say? I love us. And when the photographer (aka Tomas) never wants to be in the pictures it ends up being just me and my lover.
Our "awesome" New Year's Eve feast at Beto's, or what we know as Filberto's in AZ. I don't know that I felt 100% satisfied after my meal...
Off to Temple Square...few connections in Utah = little else to do on New Year's Eve. But it was beautiful nevertheless.
And cold.
Good thing I was prepared and purchased a warm coat before I left.
I'm reunited with my lover, ohhhh yeah.
Pretty pretty.
I don't think I would have gotten over this quickly had the circumstances led to a midnight bath.
I loved all the nativity scenes and the racially diverse Mary, Jesus, Joseph, shepherds, angels, etc..
Like this one. I really liked this one.
Even had to get a picture with it.
Yep, I liked this one, too.
Ahhhh, it was a fun even if it was less than eventful. I'm just happy to be back with my Clark. Well that's the conclusion of our New Year's Eve photos...so on to other news.
Last but not least, caramel corn on the cob, anyone? We found these at the store. I think people thought we were crazy laughing hysterically at these "ears" of corn. But they are scrumptious and made right here in Utah.
So... the transition has been pretty good. The job is going well even if Clark and I have opposite/conflicting schedules at the moment. This too shall pass. I love being able to walk to and from work. It's glorious. I haven't driven my car in 4 days. Probably not a good idea to let it sit in the cold but I love not having to drive. The grocery store is literally a minute walk from the house and I just got a library card and walked to a library branch that was three blocks away. Running trails are near by and we get to see Gretchen and Mom and Dad Tobler next weekend (PS, Mom and Dad Tobler, will you be in Vegas the 29-31st? Please say yes, because we are coming!)

(No, we are not pregnant.)
Below is a picture of Clark's beloved towel, gifted to him by Diane Wamsley for his high school graduation. This towel has followed him everywhere. It followed him onto his mission where he used it daily (I hope?) for two years straight. It followed him back to Vegas. It followed him to Arizona, from Kevin's bachelor pad to my tiny apartment to the condo and to our house. And it has followed him to Utah.
After so many years of use (8 years, actually), this towel has a nasty, mildewy odor to it. When washed it smells fine. But immediately after being used it radiates a most aweful smell.
So the time has come to bid farewell to Clark's beloved towel. How it shall be retired I know not. Garbage? Cut up as rags? A bonfire tribute? I just hope Clark doesn't cry.
Farewell, good friend.

Life is good and for once, I can't complain. Nothing beats being with your spouse, that's for sure!

Rach, so glad you've relocated and reunited w/Clark:)! Love all the photos...also, we'll be in Vegas 14-21st...just miss you:(!
A. Love the Asian nativity. My parents actually have a small one at their house and I am so jealous of it.
B. We have also discovered the ears of caramel corn. :) we made fun of them, tried them, and now we love them. I'm going out of town monday for a week, but lets plan on meeting up after that.
Yeah I am glad you are together again!! The ears of corn look yummy, I want to try one next time we are there.
