Elko and Lamoille Canyon

Oh hi. So it's been over a year since I blogged....sad face. But I thought I'd do a little post about Elko, since that was kind of a huge life change...

So we've now been in Elko for about 2 months. Hans is loving his job, and especially his coaching. He's coaching JV football (linemen) at Elko High and they're doing really well (4-2). Meanwhile, I've been working at Marshall's for about a month now. I actually really like it...not sure why I've never worked retail before, since, ya know, I love shopping and fashion and all that. But I'm over the womens'/juniors department and I get to do all the features and mannequins and stuff. So that's pretty fun. Other than that, it's just an adjustment living out in the middle of nowhere. The town itself isn't terrible, it's just that it's not really close to anything, and there's not much to do here. But I'm slowly getting used to it. (Hans could live anywhere...I don't think he's had as hard a time adjusting as I have).

So in other news, our moms are here to visit for my birthday this weekend, and we took a little trip up Lamoille Canyon. It. Is. GORGEOUS. Like, I seriously have a hard time believing that a place like this exists out in the middle of all this dust and scrub brush. But it does, and I love it. I desperately want to do some kind of photoshoot up here while the fall colors are still there, but who knows if that'll happen, so I just took a few pictures while we were up there. Enjoy :)
