An Answered Prayer

On Thursday morning Josh's hands had been swollen from working out. Josh's wedding ring is Titanium, which means it can't be cut. So if it were ever to get stuck on his finger, they'd be cutting off his finger instead of his ring. So he put it in his pocket, like he always does. Josh went to institute, walked across campus, drove to the car dealership, then to work. It wasn't until he reached in his pocket at work that he realized that his wedding ring was gone. He called everywhere and went and looked in places to see if he could find his ring, but he found nothing. So I decided to re-trace his steps. I searched this grassy area that is right before the parking lot where we had parked. I thought that maybe it fell out when he pulled his keys out. As I searched the area it was getting dark and very cold so I wasn't able to see as well as I would've liked, so I ended my search for the night. That night we prayed that we would be able to find it. Friday came and went with no ring. Again, that night we prayed that we would be guided to find Josh's wedding ring. On Saturday I went up to campus to study and decided to give the grassy area one last look. I searched for 5 minutes and didn't find anything. Then I decided to thoroughly search it from left to right until I had searched it all. Ten seconds after I started - there was Josh's wedding ring! I was so excited and immediately thanked my Heavenly Father for answering our prayers. The Lord is mindful of us and hears and answers our prayers. Sometimes it may take days or years to receive our answers and sometimes we may get an answer that we're not expecting, but He will always answer us and bless us with what we need. When I called my mom and told her how I found it she said, "Terra, you couldn't do that again if you wanted to." Well to be honest, I don't ever want to have to do that again.

ELFED

Okay, so my sister-in-law (Melanie) did this thing where you can elf yourself. I have never laughed so hard! I think that it was mainly because one of the elves was my brother and seeing him dance was just hilarious! I think I may ask him to do the dance when we go home for Christmas.

Anyway, I decided to elf Josh and I. So, here it is - for the first time ever in their elf costumes, live from LOGAN UTAH - JOSHUA AND TERRA HUFF! (please click on the link below for some grand entertainment)

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

A Week Of Partying

Hello my fellow friends, family, and other people who read the Huff Blog, I come to you on another cold night from Logan, Utah to bring you a Week of Partying. So November 9th, was my wife Terra's birthday and I want to give you a run down of the day, the weekend and the week after of my wife's birthday. Nothing but fun, fun, and more fun.
Lets start out with November 9, 5:30 a.m. myself, Terra, and our friends Drew and Emily Roska drove to Tremonton, Utah to go to Denny's. Drew and Emily were dressed up. Emily was a Cowgirl and Drew was NAAAACCCCHHHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! as you can see here in the picture.




these two are great. We all felt like a minority at the Denny's. I think because we are not regular customers they felt weird around us. They all stared at us in the restaurant and gave us horrible service but the food was good.




We went about our usual day after that doing school work and regular work. Then we headed to Boise, Idaho to spend time with family. Us and Evan and Ashlee Howard (Terra's Brother and Sister in law) went to hang out with Blake, Trisha, and Baby Lincoln (Another one of Terra's Brothers). We had a lot of fun. We spent a lot of time playing with baby Lincoln and playing a game called Halo 3. As you can see in these pictures.






Me, Evan, and Blake playing the game.

Here is baby Lincoln throwing up some gang signs in his pimp jump suit.

Lincoln and Terra, Lincoln and Josh, Lincoln - "I like when my Aunts and Uncles Come!"





we had a great turkey dinner thanks to Blake and Trish. it was delicious guys!






We unfortunately had to come home and go back to school and stuff the next day but that wasn't the end of the birthday celebration. I must have accidently told our friends Dave and Kendra Bigger that Terra's birthday was the next Friday, so we decided to have another party to honor my wife's birthday. This one was different. Terra wanted to make her own cake which is fine. We were all scared and didn't know how it would turn out. But seeing it was my wife's cooking, I knew that everything would be alright. Some of our friends were there - the Biggers, of course since we were at their house, the Roska's, and Jessie Hylton. Terra's cake turned out great i really enjoyed it alot. Here are a couple of pictures of it.



It's a bug cake!!!!! As a young child my wife would have these temper tantrums and would get real red in the face. So my mother-in-law nicknamed her toot bug. So for Terra's 16th birthday I believe her mother made her a bug cake and Terra has been wanting to make one ever since. So here it is - Bug Cake #2.









Here is my beautiful wife and her masterpiece of a cake. It was a fun night.








All in all it was a great birthday my wife said. That's good to hear as a husband, I can't disappoint my favorite person in the world. We hope the best for everyone and hope all are doing well. We love you all and hope to hear from you soon.

YMCA

Hi, this is Terra. So I saw this on my friend's (Andrea Frisby) blog and I really wanted to do it. So here it is. Who knew that I was so crazy - okay, really, who DIDN'T know??? Go village people!

Your Karaoke Theme Song is "YMCA"

You're the type of person who can't have fun unless everyone else is right there with you having a blast. You have an amazing knack for figuring out what people want, and you don't mind going the extra mile to make them happy. The spotlight is something you enjoy on occasion, but you prefer that not all the attention is on you. If you've gotten people to sing or dance along with you, then you're song is a success. You might also sing: "Macarena," "Hot, Hot, Hot" or "Stayin' Alive" Stay away from people who sing: "The Greatest Love of All"

What's Your Karaoke Theme Song?

Today was a historic day for me and my lovely wife Terra. We both voted for the first time ever. I was nervous i must admit, but it was fun and i read up on a couple of things and i feel i made the right choices. I don't usually tell people who i voted for but this will be an exception. For the first seat i didn't know either of the canidites, so i looked down and their was an add in box where you could add in a name of someone so i voted for my friend Drew Roska. I believe he of all people would make the best City Councilmen. He is dedicated and he is a hard worker. Vote Drew in 2008 i sure will be. Anyway all is well in Logan so i thought i would just blog for a minute.

The Epic Journey To Idaho Falls

Terra and I returned home Yesterday from our most recent adventure to the land of Idaho Falls, Idaho. We journeyed to such a place to see my friend Ben Grimmett marry his dear bride to be -Jane. We got there a little early so we snapped a few photos of us at the Idaho Falls Temple

Look at us we are just so cute in front of the Idaho Falls Temple!! It was a really chilly day too. Well for us non-idahoans it was at least. The wedding was so wonderful. It was good to sit through a sealing again and hear the blessings that are promised to those that are righteous and live up to all the commandments that we enter into in the House of The Lord. Ben and Jane are perfect for each other even though they both look like they belong in High School still. Just kidding guys.



Here is a quick snapshot of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Grimmett coming out of the temple for the first time as husband and wife.
Ahh!! So Cute!!!!




The fun just didn't stop there we continued on our adventure up to a town many of you know called Rexburg, Idaho. We were hungry and we had one thing on our mind Big Judd's. We searched for such a restaurant but never found it. We even used a lifeline and called a friend but it was too far to travel due to the rumbling of our stomachs. And no Kendra Bigger it's not your fault. So, we had to settle for the next best thing.................

Upon arrival our anticipation of fast service and quick food was denied. We waited for a while we felt as if we were wasting away into nothing at all since we had not eaten since 9 a.m. and it was now 4 p.m.

I mean look at us don't we look like we are starving and that we can't go another second without food!!!



Upon arrival of such food my wife and I turned into fat kids at a cake convention. We went nuts on the food. Finishing in a record time of how ever long it took us to eat it. It was good too. We wish all of you out there could have joined us at such an occasion. We hope that next time we can have a big Craigo's Party with everyone.

After we finished we headed back to Idaho Falls to go to a beautiful reception at this place called the Rose Shop. Bunch's of fresh roses and other beautiful flowers there. We very much enjoyed ourselves. It was fun to visit with old friends and with new friends. We hope the best for Ben and Jane and this new start for them. We also hope all is well with all of you. We love you all and miss you all that much more.

TERRA'S GRADUATING!

I know, it's hard to believe! I, Terra, am actually graduating from Utah State University in May 2008. I will be graduating in Interdisciplinary Studies which lets me combine two areas of study. So I've combined my business degree from Ricks College and my music classes from USU. With my degree I will be able to manage and teach my own vocal studio. It was going to take two more years to get my degree in Choral Education and my adviser said that I could complete a masters degree in Choral Ed in the time it would take me to get my Bachelor's in Choral Ed. So I've got the option to get a Masters degree if I really want to. I think for now I'll bask in the joy of being graduated. It's only taken me 10 years - minus the mission and a couple years of breaks. But lots of people go to school for 10 years - they're called doctors. Just call me Doctor Huff!

The Big Race

Terra and Josh before the Race

On October 13th, 2007 Terra and I participated in the Ribbon Run 5k and 1 Mile Walk. I of course being the lazy one of the two of us did the 1 mile walk with some friends while Terra did the 5k run. It was a really chilly day in Hyde Park, Utah. And it was raining off and on. The 5k runners were let off first to get ahead of the pack. The walkers waited about 4 minutes then we were let loose. It was crazy! Our Friend Jesse Howe kept us all entertained by his jokes and his Olympic Speed walking that he imitated very well. We had to follow the Green Arrows as shown there.

It of course was a very hard walk for myself and my wife she claims it as no sweat on her run. She was a trooper for sure. Her and her two friends Kendra Bigger and Jessie Hylton did awesome at running it. I don't remember the times but this is the image i took while my awesome wife ran through the finish line.

Look at this action shot of my wife and Jessie Hylton crossing the finish line of their first 5k run. This simple run has inspired me and my wife and several of our friends to run in the 10k of the Salt Lake Marathon in April. We are pumped and excited for it and have already started to train for it. We hope that maybe some of you will join us in this race.
After the race was over with they gave us all medals for participating in the race. We were so excited that we wore them for the rest of the day.



We are such a cute couple i know!!! After the race we all went to IHOP and had some breakfast, mm mm good!!!!!! IT was a fun and eventful morning and we enjoyed it so. Well till next time this is Josh Huff saying Good fight, Good Night!!!!!

Transformers

Josh and I have become huge fans of the new movie "Transformers." We recently had October-Fest with our friends so that we could all watch the movie together. We bought the movie on Tuesday and Josh was so patient. He didn't even take it out of the wrapper till Saturday night for the party! The week before the movie came out we got personal phone calls from Optimus Prime! Apparently the Decepticons are going to invade Utah. Hmmm.... Anyway, we're in good with the Autobots. Josh even gave our Honda a transformer name. And it was so good that I've forgotten it already. But I do know that it was more than meets the eye!

Working a Grave

So i'm working a grave shift and i decided to create this blog so that everyone that we know can keep up with us and what has been going on and will go on in our lives. Me and Terra love looking at others blogs and we have family members with them. So here we go the first entry. Their will be many more i can tell you that. We will keep you updated like when we go to Casper for Christmas it's so exciting to be with all of our family. Before i forget to tell everyone, Terra and I are training to run in a 10k race next April in Salt Lake City, Utah. Terra just recently ran in a 5k in Hyde Park, Utah. She did very well, i'm so proud of her. We are now hooked on these races. Anyway we love you and we can't wait to see you all
