Do you know of anyone who needs an oven?

We just purchased a house less than a year ago and decided to get a new oven. We are getting rid of our old oven and aren't asking anything for it, just that you be willing to come pick it up. The previous owners were pretty hard on it so there are some stains on there that we haven't been able to get off. We have really scrubbed and they haven't come off. It works fine and we have never had any issues with it. Please contact me if you (or someone you might know) are interested or have any questions. My cell phone number is (208) 221-3802 or email idamberl@hotmail.com




The cooked on stuff we haven't been able to get off.



Our trip to Arizona (very picture heavy!!)

Okay so I'm a few months (almost a year) behind (again) so I'm playing catch up (again)!
Every year Eric's parents winter in Arizona so this year we decided to go down there and visit them. We brought our 4-wheelers and packed up and headed down there. It was so much fun and good to spend time with Leland and Sharon. We got some R&R in, 4-wheeled, ate, hunted for geodes and other rocks, and came home about 20 heavier than when we left! :)

Since Rohbi would be missing school, we got her school work and took it with us.


We decided to take a detour and go see the Hoover Dam since Rohbi and I hadn't seen it before. There was a huge line of cars waiting to go so we got stuck in a huge, long line.
I just thought this was interesting. It was just a bus that took people down to the dam and back instead of them having to take their cars.






We're getting closer! It was such a long drive then we get stuck at a railroad crossing and it took forever for the stupid train to cross!
Rohbi got a hold of the camera...

We finally got there and we were all tired. Eric is trying to rest but he wanted SO BADLY for me to take his picture :)...
then he yells at me for it :( (Okay that's not really how it went lol)
Rohbi already going rock collecting...she had to show Poppy what she found. Blooming cactus...this is just the beginning! They are so pretty!
On our way to Lake Havasu-houses right on the river

The water goes between the houses like streets! I thought it was pretty cool!

City of London (in Lake Havasu City)


Eric is telling Rohbi how to make a wish in a fountain

"Now once you make a wish, you cannot tell anyone what you wished for or it won't come true."
London Bridge Candle Factory. They make their own candles right there! It was so neat to see the process. We bought one for my mom and I wish I would have taken a picture of it so you could see what the finished product looks like! Really neat!!!

You can't tell but she is chasing after the pigeons :)

The London Bridge in the background

Correct me if I'm wrong but I guess they moved this bridge from England a piece at a time. The bricks were numbered.

Haha
We went on a boat ride over to the other side of Lake Havasu. There was a casino there and they dropped us off. Since we had Rohbi with us we couldn't go into the casino and walk around so we went into the restaurant and had some drinks and an appetizer and waited for the boat to come back.
Eric's wonderful parents
Geode hunting
An old mine

Moe's Cabin--People come up here and they bring something with them to leave in the cabin. There were some very interesting things...you will see below...
Moe's grave

"Moe...I am no Moe...May I rest in peace"

Yes that is underwear and bra. Just a few of the many things left there.





I don't even know what to say here. It is an arrow through a cactus but I don't quite know why...I just thought it was intersting!
Taking a break from a long ride...

Poor scared lizard

Eric trying to catch the poor scared lizard.

Going exploring

Always up for a chance to pose I guess this is where he wanted his final resting place to be. I thought this was kinda cool...

The way home. We loved all the red rock
