"You're cute"

A Conversation I had with my Husband last night....

Me:
"You're Cute"
Brian: "Really? No, you're the cute one."
Me: "haha You're funny."
Brian: No serious I have been just watching you work
lately and can't help but think how cute you are and how lucky I am."

I can't believe I married a man that thinks he is the lucky one just as much as I KNOW I am the Lucky one!

I am blessed....<3>

Spoiled...

So I have to say that Brian and I have been extremely spoiled. Since we have been married we have been able to spend almost everyday all day together. There have been times when I haven't seen him all day but its so few I can count them on one hand. This is such a blessing to me, but now when I have to leave him for a couple hours or if I fall asleep with out him (like last night for the first time ever) I become sad. I know it is not a big deal at all but because we have been so blessed to be together almost constantly I hate any second I have to be away from him.

Thank you Heavenly Father for Spoiling us!

Well things have been crazy with us as usual. We have been mobeing tons of stuff all through the bush to make our new mine work and run smoothly and be able to have a place to live here at the mine. It has all worked out pretty nicely I think. Brian and I have drove lots of miles during this process and lets just say my butt can now go a long time with out going numb haha (don't think that's a good thing)One of the times we went to the old mine to pick stuff up, we got to have a camp fire and cook our food over it. I know its not a big deal at all, people do it all the time, but I haven't done it tons like Brian and it was our first time "Camping" together. It wasn't real camping of course we still had our old camp there but there wasn't any heat or any electric or any way of cooking food but on a barbecue or a camp fire and of course I wanted to have a camp fire so Brian was nice enough to do that for me. Brian was so cute cuz to him it is just more work but for me he did it. :)
Update on the mine: We are moving dirt 24/7 and its coming along really well. We pray for good weather everyday so we can make all our deadlines. Heavenly Father has answered them for sure. :) ( Brian is in the Hoe, the thing on the left for those of you that don't know ;))
What we are looking forward to....AUGUST! My parents and Aunt and Uncle and maybe Laura and Payden are coming up for a visit and it is going to be amazing seeing family again! We are so excited to share what Alaska is like and its beauty with them :)

One more thing I have to add....I love my Husband so much! Sometimes I find myself just looking at Brian and watching him and can't help but smile. I am so in love with him and each morning I wake up I am thankful its next to such an amazing man that I get to spend ETERNITY with. <3

Liven Good at Livengood

Well yesterday was a big day for us all in the Baker Clan. WE CLOSED ON LIVENGOOD!!!!

For those of you that don't know what Livengood is here is a summary....

Livengood is a Gold Mine. It is above the ground so its called a placer mine. It is probably the largest placer gold mine in Alaska and maybe North America. Anyways....Its BIG.

This mine is 3 hours closer to town on the same road than our current mine (Tofty) is. It will be really really nice being so close to town and at least for the next little while we will be living in town (so nice)

So this has been a long time coming. Brian's dad has looked into the property for the the past 4 years and the last 2 years have been spent completely consumed in trying to get fincancing and everything lined out so we can purchase and mine Livengood :)

We have finally done it and we are so excited!! This means that we will be able to have a paycheck!!!!! Also Brian will be able to have some time off once things get rolling. The mine will take any where from 10 to 20 years to complete so we will have a steady job.

All around Livengood brings many good things to our life and we are very excited for it!

Soon we will be Liven Good at Livengood!!
