Jake and Nicole

Monticello & Goblin Valley

2011-08-07T18:26:00.000-07:00

Jake had a race in Monticello back in June and we decided since we were down there we would see some sights in the area. After the race we drove to Green River and stayed in a KOA and then went to Goblin Valley the next day. I was not sure what to expect but we (Jake, Rebekah and I) really liked it. It is like nothing you have ever seen before unless you have watched galaxy quest. When we first got there it was raining and very cold but then it warmed up. We hiked around for a couple of hours and then headed home.

Jake is # 632

This was in the pool at the KOA. For some reason

Jake loves pulling faces at me when I ask to take a picture of him.

Excellent dismount!

Jake was showing Rebekah and I some Olympic worthy slide routines.

Jake and Rebekah. Yes it really was that cold.

All I was trying to do was get a good family picture and instead i got this...

And then this ...

And then he did it who would have thought it was so hard?

If you look very closely you will be able to find Jake.

New York

2011-07-11T13:49:00.000-07:00

Back in April Jake and I went to New York and yes I am just now getting around to putting up my pictures. We were able to see and do a lot of new things, and hang out with Grandma and Grandpa Field. We went to the Culinary Institute of America, The Vanderbilt Mansion, H&M (my favorite), Connecticut, Jake's old ward, the Millbrook Cafe, and a Yankees game. It was good to see old friends and the places around Millbrook were Jake worked and went to school.

This is a fort that Jake built in the back of their house in Millbrook. He included a second story and a zip line which are both gone now. So cute!

This is the sign that was above the door.

George & Reba!

2011-05-07T11:09:00.000-07:00

Last month I went to the George Strait Reba McEntire concert with a group of friends from work. We went to dinner at Z'Tejas in SLC before and then went to the Energy Solutions for about 4 hrs of the best music! The concert was so good and I am glad I got to see two of my favorite entertainers together. As an added bonus Lee Anne Womack opened for them and even sang a song with Reba.

Abby's Birthday

2011-01-27T18:45:00.000-08:00

I was putting pictures on my computer and ran across a bunch of my niece Abby who just turned 4. She was born before Jake and I were married and was the first grandchild on the Field side and now she is so big. I decided to put some of my favorites up so others (Mindy) can look back and enjoy them as well.

Late Christmas and Birthday

2011-01-27T18:11:00.000-08:00

I realized I never posted pics of Christmas and then shortly after that realized I did not take very many. So I will just post this one of Jake and I (our very small family). It was a very good Christmas, we got to meet our new nephew Forrest and got a lot of good gifts from each other and our families.

My birthday is two weeks after Christmas so not much time till I get to open more presents. We went to dinner with friends the night before and then went to a work party that night. I got some clothes and gift certificates for more clothes, magazines on photography and house plans, and eventually a new camera.

Winter Wonderland

2010-12-21T10:45:00.000-08:00

This is what we woke up to today. I have not seen this much snow in awhile and this is just from overnight. It is going to snow all day today and all night into tomorrow morning. I am not a big fan of snow but at least we will have a white Christmas.

Thanksgiving & Megans Birthday!

2010-12-21T10:36:00.000-08:00

I apologize for posting this so late it is 5 days till Christmas and I am just getting around to posting about Thanksgiving. It was a very good Thanksgiving this year I cooked a turkey for my first time and I was quite impressed with it, I did manage to set off the smoke alarms for awhile but what is Thanksgiving with out them? Kathleen (Mother-in-law) and I made the best cranberry sauce I have ever tasted just ask Bekah! We also got to celebrate my niece Megan's 2nd birthday. We did a lot of fun things like going to the park, swimming, late black Friday shopping, the men went shooting, a few rounds of pickle ball, and we witnessed several close battles for championship points in the ever so popular motocross races! It makes me so thankful that I live by both my family and Jake's so that we are able to do these things with them and form a lot of great memories together! Thanks Dave and Kathleen for a great Thanksgiving.

Snowville race I think Jake got First in his class and Matt took second in his. Someone might have to correct me if I am wrong. This race was back in October.

Manti Race

2010-12-21T09:40:00.000-08:00

Manti was the last race of the year for Jake and it was a lot of fun because Rob, Mindy and the girls came down for it. This was the first time Jake did a race here and the course seemed pretty fun.

Look closely at this picture it is a pretty good one.

A little piece of heaven

2010-10-18T12:17:00.000-07:00

The weather has been so nice lately so Jake and I decided to go riding up Hobble Creek Canyon on Saturday. I was not a fan of the whole ride but we did find a trail that had the best views and was really fun to ride on. Jake is a huge fan of trails like this so he was off riding while I was taking pictures.

Like I said this is one of the best views

HELP!!

2010-10-05T08:07:00.000-07:00

I need someone to help me get my blog back to what it was. I am not really sure what I did but I think I some how have by brother-in-laws info and I lost all my friends and family. Any new person looking at this blog I do not have children. So if someone knows how to fix this problem feel free to let me know. Thanks!

something new

2010-09-16T20:07:00.000-07:00

Now that we have figured out how to wakeboard Jake and I are trying to teach ourselves how to water ski. Water skiing is definitely a lot harder than it looks, I have a hard time moving around without my feet attached to the same board. Jake figured out how to drop a ski to slalom but now the water is getting to cold so I guess I we will have to figure it out next summer.

Memorial Day Weekend

2010-06-07T15:44:00.000-07:00

This Memorial weekend was a good one, I got a new 4wheeler so we went riding on Saturday and then went boating on Monday. I forgot my Camera on Saturday so I just have pics of our boating trip. The weather was nice but the water was a very cold 60 degrees but we were all very brave and got in anyway. After boating we went to my in laws house for a BBQ.

Europe

2010-05-25T08:51:00.000-07:00

Sorry this post is so long I could not decide which pictures to put in and which ones to leave out. Jake and I went to France and Italy the first part of May and we had so much fun. Some of our favorite places we went were Rome, Florence, Pompeii and Paris. Some of our favorite things that we saw was the Colosseum, Vatican City (St. Peter's Basilica), and the ruins of Pompeii. Our Favorite Pizza we ate was in Pompeii, our favorite gelato was coconut gelato in Florence, one of my favorite pastas was in Pisa, and our favorite Crepe was not in Paris but in Rome with butter and sugar. There are so many good memories that I have of the trip and I am so grateful we were able to go over there.

Mesquite race

2010-02-02T09:34:00.000-08:00

Jake had a race in Mesquite this weekend and he did very well to start off the new season. He finished 1st in his class and 4th overall in the amateurs. His bike ran well other than the flat tire he did not know he had. The race was 15 mile loops that were full of sand but unfortunately these pictures are all in the sawdust section that they went through because they were by the pits. Overall it was alot of fun and the weather was perfect, 60 degrees with no snow!

Jake giving the usual update about the course.

Thanks Dave, Kathleen and Bekah for coming down and spending the weekend with us.

Christmas, my Birthday and other stuff

Jake putting together the grill we got for Christmas

I celebrated my Birthday with my mom this year. She made me a cheesecake and Jake bought me a chocolate peanut butter ice cream cake. I loved them both!

Jake and I went to the shooting range with Jake's brother Rob after Christmas. It was my first time shooting indoors so I was a little nervous at first but eventually I got the hang of it.

Handyman Jake Field

2009-12-13T14:46:00.000-08:00

I have been complaining for awhile now about the lack of light that we were receiving in our shower, so I had my trusty handyman install a can light in there. Jake needs projects to do on the Saturdays that he is not able to go riding so he asked what I would like done most and sure enough he got right to work.

here is the finished product...

Riding in November

2009-12-10T09:05:00.000-08:00

I just wanted to document this rare occasion Matt and Jake were able to go riding the day after Thanksgiving. I can't believe how nice the weather was in November.

Hiking in Zions

2009-10-29T10:49:00.001-07:00

This is one of the prettiest hikes one could ever go on. The weather was perfect and the trees were beautiful. There are not to many places were you will see sand, lots of trees, pine cones, huge red rocks and mountain goats in one place.

Mesquite WORCS race

2009-10-29T10:30:00.000-07:00

Jake decided to try out a new style of racing. This race was part Track part desert and was much more enjoyable to watch.

"GIVE IT A LITTLE GAS"

2009-09-04T07:05:00.000-07:00

Jake and I went to St. George for our anniversary with Dave and Kathleen a couple weeks ago. I did not get any pics of the trip but I was able to get a short clip of a enduro cross race that is a good reminder of why it is so important to just give it a little gas! ( Thank you Dave for a few good laughs)

Price Race

2009-08-21T08:58:00.000-07:00

Jake had a race in Price last week that we all were able to go and watch. It was a fun race to watch because there were a lot of areas that you could see the riders at. Although it was not the outcome that he had wanted, he still had a good time and loves his new bike.

Jake got a really good start and was in second place for a couple minutes. (For those of you who may not know that is very good form coming around that first corner).

Washington

2009-08-13T07:57:00.001-07:00

Jake just went on his first business trip to Washington. I have been wanting to go there on vacation but we have not been able to. Unfortunately I was not able to go with him and I forgot to send the camera with him so instead he brought home some postcards. Not quite as good as being there but it will do.

Clarification

2009-03-05T17:25:00.001-08:00

Just to correct the last post the cuckoo clock keeps Jake up and that is only when I forget to switch it to silent. Other than that there are no complaints and I am glad I bought it. Jake thought he was funny by saying it keeps us up.

Update...

2009-02-24T08:50:00.000-08:00

Sorry it has been a couple of months since I have added anything to our blog. I was waiting to get a new computer because our old one would take forever to upload photos. As you can see there is not much going on in our lives since I dont have much to put up. Jake has been busy with school and work but is looking forward to his birthday this weekend because there is a race in St. George. I am still working at the same place and will take a night class through Springville city every couple of months. Sorry there is not much to tell you about us but I will post some more after this weekend!

2009-02-24T08:46:00.000-08:00

I know these were taken awhile ago but I thought that they were worthy of putting up. Hope you enjoy!

2009-02-22T19:37:00.000-08:00

here is my cuckoo clock that I purchased in Germany. It works nice and keeps us up all night.

Thanksgiving is now over

2008-12-02T11:00:00.000-08:00

Well now that Thanksgiving is officially over I am forced to take down my favorite turkey plates. So I thought that I would take a picture for all of you who did not get to see them while they were out. (Mainly just Rachel) Hope you enjoy!

Trip to Europe

2008-10-25T08:47:00.000-07:00

Well now that we are back I thought that I should share some pics for all of you asking to see them. I tried posting different ones for those of you that look at Amy's blog, sorry if there are repeats. Our trip to Europe was a lot of fun. There are a couple of stories that I think are worth mentioning. First Jake and I had a great experience with buying water in Europe. For those of you who have not been there they have what they call water with gas in it. Jake went into a gas station to buy water brought it out to me and I took the first drink. I informed him that he bought the wrong water. Neither of us were aware of what water with gas was so we went in and bought another...again with gas. Matt then informed us that it had to say still, needless to say our third bottle later we figured it out. Another funny story, we were walking around Salzburg and not only are there cars on the streets but horses with buggies. Jake and Matt were busy talking to each other when Jake turned around to say something to Matt and stepped in Horse crap. I pushed him a little bit before he had the chance to fully step down but I am not kidding you it was a huge pile of crap. The funny thing about that story is that Amy is in the background calling Jakes name about 5 times to get him to pay attention but he was not listening. Overall the trip was a lot of fun we were able to see a lot of places. Germany had the prettiest country side and Prague was the prettiest city that we went to.

ONE YEAR!!

2008-08-21T15:42:00.000-07:00

Well as of Monday the 18th Jake and I have been married 1 year! I am suprised it went by pretty fast. We went to dinner on saturday and then to a demolition derby, and on monday I cooked Jake dinner and we ate our delicious cake! (thanks again Amy). jake got me some pretty roses...

they say that the first year is the hardest so now that we got that out of the way i guess being married is going to be a breeze now...right?

our first camping trip of the year...we were not very prepared

2008-06-19T07:39:00.000-07:00

Jake and I decided to go camping with our friends Warren and Terisa. It was a nice day and we had a nice drive up AF canyon. We drove up in Warrens jeep and since the weather was so nice he had taken the top and doors off of it. We ate dinner, set up out tent, built a fire then went to bed...

and then we woke up (keep in mind it is june) we heard what we thought was rain off and on throughout the night but little did we know it was not rain. We did not sleep very well because of the decrease in the temp. and packing up in the morning was a bit miserable. I think the ride back was the best and I wish we had pictures to show the jeep. We did not really pack we just threw everything in garbage bags and Terisa, Jake and I held them. You had to look pretty hard to find us.

its official I have finally posted something

2008-05-29T11:53:00.000-07:00

To all of you who requested me to post something I hope you enjoy!

This one is for Dave Field

2008-05-29T11:36:00.000-07:00

Jake had me take pictures of his new bike so he could show you. He is very proud of it and says that he is happy to be riding for team Honda again. This is what is going to help him get those highly anticipated yellow plates. Also we (Amy and I) are looking forward to you moving out here so we can retire as the "pit girls" so when ever your ready to take over you just let us know. I recently decided I am not very good at that job.

Jakes 90+ mile race at Jericho

2008-05-29T11:29:00.000-07:00

the leader of the Novices and if you look closely you will see a couple of crashes as well. Jake ended up 2nd in his class but the guy that finished ahead of him is not a member so he will be 1st. he was 11th or 13th overall in the novices.

2008-05-29T11:14:00.000-07:00

Word of advice to all you untrained race goers, when your husband stops at a gas station on your way to the race and tells you that he wants you to go in and buy food, he is not meaning drinks, chips, and a few other light snacks. Oh NO he is really meaning food... hot dogs, nachos, sandwiches and what ever else you can think of that a gas station might have. Forget the fact that you suggested going to walmart for FOOD he is serious when he stops at a gas station and wants FOOD! (Yes Amy I did get in trouble again for not getting the food, even though I was told 1/2 hr before we were leaving that we were even going. yep you have to love them.)
