Well we did it we left early Wednesday morning August 1st and made our journey to Chicago. My awesome Dad and little brother Gunner helped drive my car on our little journey. We arrived to Chicago on Friday we unloaded all are stuff up to the 3rd floor of our apartment and went out and tried our first Chicago deep dish Pizza at Giordano's and it was pretty good. Than Saturday we took the train into town and checked out all we could in one day before Sunday came and we had to say good bye to my Dad and Gunner. It was super sad saying bye to all our family my parents were so kind to let us live with them for over a year. Stratton said he was even going to have a hard time leaving because they treated us so good and of course miss my moms cooking and poor little Dash loved them so much he would wake up every morning looking for grandma and papa and when he found them he got the biggest smile on his face, but we are excited to get Stratton into school and done with school so we can be back home closer to our families.Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-58873719318607667392012-04-18T15:46:00.004-07:002012-04-18T20:49:50.153-07:00My BIG BOY!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-alwRANOWURA/T49JXfRpSAI/AAAAAAAAATU/KAicjurrCNA/s1600/dash%2Bsmiling%2Bin%2Bblessing%2Boutfit.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 175px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732881518547257346" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-alwRANOWURA/T49JXfRpSAI/AAAAAAAAATU/KAicjurrCNA/s320/dash%2Bsmiling%2Bin%2Bblessing%2Boutfit.jpg" /></a> Dash's blessing Day his Dad gave him<br /> such a sweet blessing and he looks so cute<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WchXme91tCA/T49JWtsl-gI/AAAAAAAAATM/MQ_pTipaYLo/s1600/1%2Bfamily%2Bpic%2Bwith%2Bdash.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 246px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732881505238514178" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WchXme91tCA/T49JWtsl-gI/AAAAAAAAATM/MQ_pTipaYLo/s320/1%2Bfamily%2Bpic%2Bwith%2Bdash.jpg" /></a> Our first family pic on his blessing day!<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-v4FqBR_YXE4/T49JWU6wodI/AAAAAAAAATA/wzBfTKj8yvM/s1600/Easter%2B029.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732881498587046354" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-v4FqBR_YXE4/T49JWU6wodI/AAAAAAAAATA/wzBfTKj8yvM/s320/Easter%2B029.JPG" /></a> Easter Day we went to tucson to see his new cousin!</div><div> and I love this face it just makes me laugh<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5CZRk8G7ft0/T49JV3Wus8I/AAAAAAAAAS0/DmpoqnIredw/s1600/Easter%2B027.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; height: 320px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5732881490651296706" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5CZRk8G7ft0/T49JV3Wus8I/AAAAAAAAAS0/DmpoqnIredw/s320/Easter%2B027.JPG" /></a> Another Easter pic he is getting so big!<br /><div><div>I can not believe that Dash is 3 months old!

He loves his tongue and his fist. He has rolled over once or twice but my mom keeps telling me i need to lay him down more so he can learn to roll over but we just love to hold him. He also loves his dad so much whenever his dad comes home he starts to talk and talk and smiles it really is so cute. At his two month check up he weighed 13.8pounds and was 24.5 in. long that is in the 95% for both he is growing into a big boy and its so cute.

I have been student teaching for two weeks and have really liked it. Right now I am teaching 6th-8th graders my mentor teacher says I really lucked out and have pretty good classes for the most part so that makes it nice. Stratton is looking for a job and also been studying for is OATS test. We hope he gets accepted this year but its a pretty competitive field right now. He has applied to Illinois, Missouri, and Pennsylvania so for now its just playing the waiting game. It's weird being back in Colorado and not play ball but its fun spending time with Stratton. We both are so grateful for the many blessing we have received this last year and are so grateful for our wonderful families.</div>Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-44342035825983312132010-12-06T10:46:00.000-08:002010-12-06T10:52:05.502-08:00Looking for the perfect gift?<div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/TP0vrYT1e9I/AAAAAAAAARQ/K9tHvMQTBXM/s1600/bands.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 420px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 283px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547642738296847314" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/TP0vrYT1e9I/AAAAAAAAARQ/K9tHvMQTBXM/s320/bands.jpg" /></a><span style="font-size:180%;color:#3366ff;"> Power Balance Bands</span> Come get them while they are hot.<br />It's crazy how they work.<br />They are the perfect gift for anyone. <br /><a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1305055/Beckham-De-Niro-Kate-Middleton--theyre-joining--Power-bandwagon.html"><span style="color:#009900;">Sport players and celebrities are loving them.</span></a><br />Leave a comment if you want to know more about them.<br />Selling them for<br />1 for $14<br />or<br />2 for $20<br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">Perfect stocking stuffer!</span><br /></div>Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-34158156828230457132010-10-07T11:50:00.001-07:002010-10-07T12:05:56.729-07:00Solomons Pumpkin Patch<img style="WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT: 0px; VISIBILITY: hidden" border="0" src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bHQ9MTI4NjQ3NzM4OTAzMiZwdD*xMjg2NDc3NDIzOTM1JnA9Mzg2MzYxJmQ9Jm49YmxvZ2dlciZnPTEmbz*5ZTc4YjBlYjMwMWM*/MDkyYTczMmYxNTg*NWI*OTBiMCZvZj*w.gif" width="0" height="0" /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s755.photobucket.com/albums/xx200/martijo119/?action=view&current=152_5234-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="WIDTH: 692px; HEIGHT: 532px" border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://i755.photobucket.com/albums/xx200/martijo119/152_5234-1.jpg" width="749" height="529" /></a></p><p align="center"><span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff6600;">Come get your pumpkin.</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">All pumpkins are two dollars.</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">They are planted with love.</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Where : Joesph City Pumpkin patch behind The Solomons house.</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Time: Friday 4 to dark</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Saturday noon to dark</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Monday 4 to dark</span></p><p align="center"><span style="color:#ff6600;">ps.

It all started 5:30 Friday night Stratton came home from weights and said do you want to go to the movies tonight and so he called and all the Movies this weekend in Alamosa were rated R so that was a no go. Then he was like lets go to Snowflake and you don't have to tell me twice I was like really woohoo bags packed sitting in the truck haha, bu he said just one thing you have to keep me awake. If you know me as soon as i get in the truck I fall asleep but i stayed awake the whole time and we made it to Snowflake at 12:45 in the morning and everybody was sleeping so i went into my moms room and she was like Porter what do you need of course Porter would be walking around that late then she was like Misti what are you doing haha it was pretty good. Then i went and woke up Monty and Kendra and Krew was just laying in bed smiling haha good times.

We had a lot of fun hanging out with my family this last month. I love my family so much thanks Mom and Dad for giving us a place to live and food to eat you guys are the best. I could just hang out with my mom all day and be happy she is one awesome mom and lots of fun. Not to many moms take their little girl and boy out in their car and shoot prairie dogs. Even though they never wanted me to shoot i did kill one prairie dog it was awesome. We also got to see Porter and Domini and the little baby Mallory she is so cute and so tiny. I don't think i could ever take care of something that small. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">haha</span> It's fun to see Porter be a dad and i have to say he is a pretty good one kind of a surprise <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">haha</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">jk</span> He put up with me he can handle anything. Next we got to go and see <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Kase</span> Carter Caldwell my brother <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Montys</span> boy and he was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">alot</span> bigger then Mallory i was not so scared to hold him but still a little scared. We also got to hang out with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Krew</span> and Reagan. They are awesome kids and i miss them so much. When i was at EA i got to play with them everyday so it was good to see them and play with them. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Krew</span> also became my little buddy and even stayed the night with us.

We went to the trainer here at Adams State and he said he doesn't think it's broken he thinks its just cartilage so i guess it will go back to normal we hope. What do you think? It looks pretty painful but he is one tough cookie. I don't know how he does it but he never cries so i guess i make up for the both of us ;) So it's been along time since I have updated we are both doing good just working basketball camps after basketball camps. We will be in Snowflake for the month of July and we can't wait!!!!<br /><div></div>Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-2637288659490622382009-03-09T19:06:00.000-07:002009-03-09T19:33:51.667-07:00Daylight Savings.....What?Yesterday Stratton and I got up and got ready for church that starts at 9. We were pretty excited because we were going to be on time, and we didn't have any late basketball games and we werent getting home at 5 in the morning from traveling. So we drove to church and there were a lot of cars at church already. As we got out i kind of jokingly said "did church start at 8 today." So we walk in to the church and sacrament meeting has already started. At first We were like "that's weird", we thought we were going to be a minute or two early. So we walk in to find a seat and everybody is smiling so big at us and some people are even laughing it was really strange. So we sit down and Stratton looks up at the clock and started laughing so hard and was like Misti it's almost 10 and i still didn't get it. First I thought "did the electricity go off last night" I was just so confused and then Stratton told me daylight savings began last night..... Oh man we felt so stupid and it was pretty much the joke of the ward that day. Stupid Arizona kids forgot to set their clocks ahead haha Joke on us! It was pretty funny. So welcome Daylight savings! I still don't understand it.Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-21066862198820437812009-02-20T09:52:00.000-08:002009-02-20T09:59:12.214-08:00Happy Birthday My lover Boy<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SZ7vRnoqBfI/AAAAAAAAAJs/h66VNMD4kTo/s1600-h/SD530442.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304940497065346546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SZ7vRnoqBfI/AAAAAAAAAJs/h66VNMD4kTo/s400/SD530442.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Hey I just wanted to wish Stratton a happy birthday real fast before we have to leave for our game.

The two are here together sharing the bond of marriage. On top of that, they share another bond that is known around the world known as competitiveness.<br />"We are competitive in everything we do," explained Misti. "Any type of game, including sports and board games."<br />When the two met they remember playing racquetball. "We played three games and he didn't even score one point," noted Misti."It turns out her aunt plays and is extremely good. Misti humbled me," Stratton noted.<br />The competitiveness and shared passion for sports led the couple to start dating. Their competitiveness and friendship grew and led the couple to marriage in the summer of 2007. Now Stratton has as many chances as he wants to try and defeat Misti in racquetball.<br />They lived their first year in Arizona where Misti was a basketball player for Eastern Arizona College in Thatcher. Stratton cheered his wife on as Misti played on the Gila Monster team.<br />As he remembered this, Stratton jokingly said, "She improved and she is now ten times better as a Solomon than a Caldwell (Misti’s maiden name).”<br />"Getting married wasn't weird at all," said Misti, who changed her name after the marriage. "The only thing that I thought was weird was when they introduced me and announced my name at games and I would ask myself, 'who's that?'"<br />And with that Misti and Stratton are both being introduced to a new life and a new college. The trip to Adams State was an interesting one for these two. The two were introduced to Adams State because Misti's brother, Porter, had decided to transfer and try and play for the Grizzly men’s basketball team. Misty and Stratton decided to transfer because “my time was up, and I had to go somewhere if I still wanted to play,” said Misti.<br />"Originally my brother was going to transfer over and play for the ASC men's team," Misti said. "When he got here he found out that his credits wouldn't transfer."<br />"Misti and Porter were well known in Arizona, they were recruited to play here," explained Stratton. "We originally came because we thought there would be family here but even with the fallout of Porter's credits we still decided to stay here because they had a lot to offer Misti."<br />When the two found out that Porter’s credits would not transfer they thought about what they would do next. After some deliberation the two came up with a conclusion. "If they take my credits and they have the classes I need for my degree then this is the place I need to be," said Misti, who made it through the recruiting process and made it on ASC's women's basketball team. Stratton walked on to the men's team and he made it as well.<br />Because the two teams travel together to conference games, they spend time together sitting with each other on the bus as the coaches had no choice but to let them.<br />On the academic side, Misti wants to be a physical education teacher while Stratton wants to major in athletic administration. Last semester they had three classes together and this semester, they have only one. Because of all these shared classes the two have shared some awkward moments.<br />"I remember the teacher asking if Misti and I were related and I just laughed and said, ‘yeah,’" Stratton explained. "Even though there were other students that thought we were cousins."<br />When posed with the question how other people react when they find out they are married, they just smile and laugh. "My teammates thought it was weird at first," said Misti.<br />"My teammates still think it's weird," agreed Stratton. "When I talk about Misti I say wife, so to them it's different." Seconds later he went on to laugh as he said, "If people think it's weird then weird we'll be."<br />The two are very strong supporters of one another as much as they can. "When I see her play I never thought it would play on my emotions but when I became her husband it did," noted Stratton. "You want to see her succeed, and you get nervous when they go down hard."<br />With such great support they are each putting up some strong numbers this season. Misti leads the team with 22 steals and is second on the team in scoring as she is averaging 10.5 points and a game and was named the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference/Baden West Division Player of the Week on January 5th. Stratton has 22 assists and has played in 16 games, while making four starts for the Grizzlies.<br />After a loss by either team, both agreed that neither of them complains because they know what it's like and they both have gone through it.<br />Everyday is the same. "After a hard day at practice or a tough game it's always good to go home and have someone there who understands what I'm going through," said Stratton. "I really like coming home."<br />Their competitiveness has shown up at least once this year. During the annual basketball preview event, "The Late Show," Stratton and Misti faced off in a 3-point shooting contest. To Stratton's dismay, Misti dominated.<br />"It's all friendly competitiveness," laughed Misti. "But sometimes we get so competitive we have to stop what we’re doing and take a break."<br />However, there’s no taking a break these days, because the Grizzly women and men’s teams are in the thick of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference races, and Misti and Stratton are working hard on the court to make a difference in their teams’ success.<br /><br /><br /><div></div>Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-58856373009341057912009-01-07T16:01:00.000-08:002009-01-07T16:33:15.978-08:00Life of Stratton and Misti<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SWVIBC2tjzI/AAAAAAAAAJI/NV6Ra1Ow_Mc/s1600-h/Flower.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288712520199933746" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SWVIBC2tjzI/AAAAAAAAAJI/NV6Ra1Ow_Mc/s320/Flower.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Well life of the the solomons is pretty exciting! It starts off with Stratton or I having practice and just when he gets out i have practice and then i get out and back to practice Stratton goes and then when he gets out back to practice i go. So we don't really see much of each other maybe if we are lucky we pass by each other in and out of practice. It's kind of funny but when the end of the day comes we are both pretty tired and we just lay on the couch trying to see who got the biggest bruise. (stratton usually wins because he is way smaller then his team so his teams elbows are at his face haha) but one night when i got out of practice i came home and Stratton had dinner made and he bought me flowers and had the table all set and had our favorite songs playing. I know i am one lucky girl and i think he just didn't want to hear me complain. haha but really stratton is one cool cat and i love him so much.</div>(I should of taken the picture when i got home but i didn't, but the flowers are still alive woohoo)<br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div><br /></div><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SWVDW1cM8lI/AAAAAAAAAI4/NbK6cssRHUw/s1600-h/Dear.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288707396998066770" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SWVDW1cM8lI/AAAAAAAAAI4/NbK6cssRHUw/s320/Dear.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />This is right out our back door and those are deer.

I hope you have a great birthday dad! My dad is one awesome guy and i love him so much. He is so kind to everybody and everybody thinks he is their best friend. He is so lovable, likable and kind hearted, and i never met a nicer person then my dad. He is a very good example to stratton and I and is always keeping us laughing. I am definitely my dad favorite child because i was a big time daddy's girl and the only child to ever like him better then my mom :) and I always kept his belly button clean i know weird but i thought that was my job. My dad and i would always have so much fun joking around with each other i would climb all over him and he would call me a little fly and then i would call him a no neck, hairy dog, comb over and we would just laugh and laugh. I am so grateful for my dad and all that he does for me and the good example he is and i hope you have a happy birthday old man.<br /></div></div>Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-31064801676155351602008-11-23T20:25:00.001-08:002008-11-23T20:52:01.267-08:00We love family!!!<div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SSovw_WnI5I/AAAAAAAAAFs/DEjBRf3mPe4/s1600-h/SDC10519.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272078832477086610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gHVKGkLMfE8/SSovw_WnI5I/AAAAAAAAAFs/DEjBRf3mPe4/s200/SDC10519.JPG" border="0" /></a>These are picture from the first time my parents came and took my camera.

Stratton and I have been super busy with basketball and school and more basketball but tonight was the Adams State late show and it's just a thing were they introducing our teams and having some competitions. So of course they thought it would be cool to have Statton and me go against each other in the three point contest. Stratton's coach was talking so much crap to me today how Stratton was going to beat me but lets just say i was feeling pretty lucky tonight and killed Stratton 20-10 haha it was pretty funny but lots of fun to get out and play but the coolest thing was when the introduced us all individually they had a spot light on you and stratton did a back flip it was awesome i didn't even know he could do that he is pretty amazing and I love the all the fun we have together, living far away from home its amazing how much our relationship has grown and how much we depend on each other. Well this is what has been going on in the Solomons home maybe next time i will have picture when my wonderful mom sends me my camera that i left in snowflake.Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4928051743244572730.post-47327182236130290272008-09-17T17:59:00.000-07:002008-09-17T18:11:21.891-07:00PLAY BALLWell today Stratton tried out for the boys basketball team and well he MADE IT!!!! I am really proud of him and all his hard work. He is my hero he works hard and never complains maybe because i don't give him time but he really is the best. It will be lots of fun we travel together on the bus, but both of our coach's said we can't sit by each other even though we are married. So get ready and pack your bags and come watch some Grizz Basketball because it's a family party!! Congrats Stratton I love you so much!!!!Misti and Strattonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160001712341667520noreply@blogger.com13
