Projects

I have been wanting to paint and distress these 2 little diddys for quite some time. I totally forgot to take before pictures, i'm a little upset about it but just picture them being really ugly and boring :) They were both just wood colored??? haha Not sure how to put it. 

The best part about this dresser is that it was free. My brother was taking it to the DI for a neighbor and I said I need a dresser! So we used it for a few months as ugly as it was but I think it turned out pretty cool! I am going to take the mirror in to get replaced because it looks scary!

I had some help from a couple friends but for my first time I think I did pretty good! I'm all about projects now that I don't have much going on :)

Oh the Fair

So the fair is the same every year, you walk around, smell farm animals, look at things that are too expensive to buy, see food that is too fried to eat, and attend your high school reunion all in one night....but we keep going back. Caleb wonders why we even go...and I say "It's just what we do" :) and to get scone nuggets..

I really wanted to ride the Zipper...that ride makes me laugh so hard but there are way to many carnival ride accidents!

IP in September

The Suttons invited us up to their cabin for the day with the Chiddixs. It was perfect weather with no boats on the water!

We hit the trails for a bit as well.

Such a fun day...Island Park in September=Perfect!

Home at last!

We are now back home to rexburg and we are all thrilled!

Lookin good for church!

Reid and Dieter were reunited

We love being home!

Cabe's Day

Cabe turned 24 on the 29th of August. 

Caleb spoiled himself this year...he found a nike outlet and said kels I bought my presents this year...easy for me! :) I did get him a golf shirt because he thinks he is a golfer now.

He always chooses brownies for his b-day cake...once again easy for me! :)

Sure love this guy and i'm really glad he was born ;)

Thanks friends for celebrating with us!

1 year older

I turned 23 on Thursday. Caleb had to work that day so we prolonged the celebration till saturday. But all the wives went to olive garden to celebrate by eating lots of breadsticks. I love birthdays...you feel like the bomb for one full day. Lots of facebook notifications, the husband will do whatever you ask :) Phone calls from family. It's a brilliant idea to celebrate birthdays, although it is depressing when it's over!

Caleb singing Happy Birthday all by himself. Thanks callie and preslee for making my favorite banana cake.

Reid was being so cute all day...he must have known it was my special day :)

Saturday we went to six flags with the suttons. It was a blast. We hit all the rides we wanted to and hardly had to wait in line at all. We went to the waterpark and pretty much walked on all the slides. We felt like kids again! The pecks were so sweet to watch Reid for us. 

We hit my favorites "Big'z" on the way home. 

Caleb spoiled me once again. Love him.

Another year down! :)

Big'Z

If you ever go to San Antonio... Bigz is a great place to eat!

They have very large delicious burgers

 There's a big grass area for kids to run around. 

Best barn i've ever eaten at!

Temple Date

It's true...absence makes the heart grow fonder. Not that it's good to be away from the temple for so long but it was sooo nice to be able to go again! Going to the temple is so refreshing and just makes life better.

We were able to perform temple sealings...it is such a great and needed reminder.

"The temple sealing has greater meaning as life unfolds. It will help you draw ever closer together and find greater joy and fulfillment." Richard G. Scott

National Dance Day in SA

SO remember how I made my family learn that dance? If you are familiar with So you think you can dance you probably know what National Dance day is. On that day they had dance celebrations and select Six flag parks and san antonios happened to be one of them. I dragged ashlie to come with me to see what it was all about.

 I knew they would have someone from the show there but they had Jon from season 5 who I didn't really remember. 

We couldn't help but laugh at the crowd....I thought it would be a little bigger than this haha. And theres ashlie struttin her stuff. It rained for the first time I have seen in San Antonio while we were dancing.

Running man!

So apparently it was a bigger deal in other states but San Antonio...thanks for tryin. I will do that dance when Party Rock Anthem comes on for the rest of my life. :)
