Katrena Pregnant!!!

Okay so I thought that I would put a few pictures up of me being pregnant for those who are out of the state and can't see me. Here I am at 6 months.
This one is not so flattering but it was the best way to show you all! Enjoy my humiliation!

Kat and Abby's visit!!!

Kat and Abby came to Utah for a couple of weeks. I was able to have them stay at my house and we had a lot of fun together. What cute nieces!!!Those Ellett's sure do know how to make a picture fun!


Must have candy for movie night right? Abby really is not half Chinese!
Having a bit of fun at the swimming pool! Abby and Kat waiting for the high diveCount to three Kat!!

Kat and Abby had a blast driving around the little remote control car.

We ate at Abby's favorite place...Tepanyaki. I found out after paying a bit of money that she really only likes the noodles. Good thing I love her!!






A little remodeling

We decided to do a little bit of painting in the house to make it look a lot better. Here's what we've done.

These two pictures are of our front room. If you look at the pictures I put on before we moved in you'll be able to see the difference. This was the room with the pink and brown and molding clear at the top.

This is our bedroom. We painted it because it looked exactly like the front room with the pink and brown and molding at the top. It looks so much better now!


Here's the picure of the whole house with our garage door painted all one color.

Zions National Park

Over Memorial weekend Bret, me, Janelle and Dean decided to take a trip to Zion's National Park. We did a lot of hikes and had a lot of fun together.



This is the first arch we saw! We named it Bret's arch.


Bret, Dean, and Janelle at weeping rock

Making our way up to Angel's Landing. Talk about a tough hike! Here is a picture of Walter's Wiggles.


We had to hike to the top of this mountain...you can see how narrow it got.


The view was amazing and worth it!

Me, Janelle, and Dean with the great view from Angel's Landing


On our way up to Hidden Canyon




The great outdoors

Bret and I love the outdoors. We love to go hiking, camping, snowshoeing, rock climbing, and mountain biking.

Bret, me, Janelle, and Dean hiked up to this waterfall.

Bret and I decided to go on a backpacking hike. It was my first time back packing. When we got there it was really pretty as you can see.

Well, Bret called this canyon Bell's canyon...my name for this canyon is Hell's canyon. This picture does not do the hike any justice. We were hiking for hours up these huge bolders with your big backpack on. So now it is called "Hell's canyon"

Like always the view was absolutely gorgeous when we found our spot to camp.

Bret and Katrena


Bret and I met at a Singles Region Activity. It was a huge tail gating party before the football game up at the University of Utah. I was playing catch with my roommate when Bret came walking by. I yelled, "Hey!" and then threw the football at him. It's a good thing he caught it or he might not have gotten a second look. :-) The best part of the whole story is he was going to the party to see a girl he liked, and I was going because of a guy I liked. Good thing they both were playing hard to get. We ended up hanging out the whole time together and then later that night I asked him if he wanted to go to the movies. He said yes and it was a good thing because I was able to see him without his face painted all red on one side and all white on the other. From that day on we were together everyday till we were married.
