Our First Road Trip

We don't go many places that are far away from home. The furthest we go is an hour and a half to my brother and sister-in-law's house in Pocatello. But this summer we were able to go to Twin Falls, a whole three hours away. It was an adventure for us. We were there for some good friends' wedding. We even got a hotel room and everything. Aren't we so grown up?!


Driving was fun. We talked a lot and I asked a lot of questions. I get really curious on road trips. I'm glad Landon wasn't annoyed at me.

We stayed in a hotel Friday night. We felt so adult.(I mean being married defiantly isn't as adult as getting your own hotel room... uh come on... really?)\
The next morning we got up and got ready and went to the Twin Falls temple. It was such a wonderful sealing.


 After the temple we had some time to kill so we drove around Twin and found an Arctic Circle to get some ice cream. Then we drove around some more.


 I just have to say I love my husband! He is so fine! Mmmmmm Mmmmm Mmmm!


The lunch-in was held at this beautiful event center right on the rim of the canyon, as you can tell. It was a beautiful day.


Next on our adventure was finding Hagerman, Id. Hagerman is about 45 min northwest of Twin Falls. We found it and had a great time hanging out and helping clean up the reception.


On our way out, the next morning, we decided to find where Shoshone Falls was. It took us a while to find it becasue of some road construction. It was worth the search it took to get there.

 Our first road trip was a success! Yeah!

A Whole Two Years!

In July we celebrated out 2 year anniversary. TWO YEARS! I can't believe it. I still sometimes catch myself thinking, "Is this real? I am married." A lot can happen in two years. We have many many jobs. Gone to school and stopped going to school and then went back to school. We moved once. We have been in 3 different wards. 1 sibling got married and one nephew was born. And even after all that has happened surprisingly we are still in love. Well probably even more in love.
We were going go go to Island Park to celebrate for the weekend, but we weren't able to do that so we just camped in our living room.

It really was a blast. We watched movies and ate food. Then we did a little shopping in Idaho Falls on Saturday and just had the best time.

Landon surprised me throughout the day with these little sayings and treats. It was so thoughtful and sweet.
It was a great anniversary and I am excited for the next 50 to come.

I'm Back

Hello little bloggy world. I have missed you. Have you missed me?
Enough of the silliness. It has been way to long. I mean APRIL! Really?!?! This week has been crazy with going back to school and such. It is also the official end to our summer. Sad face. I really love summer and I don't really feel like we took full advantage of the beautiful weather and lack of homework. But I can't go back and change it now, can I?
We did do some fun things and now you get to see them all. Get ready... Picture Overload!

The summer kicked off with my brother graduating from high school. It was a lot of fun. This is the whole Young gang. Finally a pic of us all together.

Then I got crafty. I made this chalkboard with an outdated painting that was left in our house when we moved in. It turned out really good and it is so much fun to write on.




We had a couple BBQ's at our house. We also did a campfire and roasted some mallows. This is Ellie isn't she a doll?!

Red white and blue drink for the 4th


We had an awesome 4th of July. We spent the whole morning with my family having a BBQ and playing volleyball in the backyard then we went to the usual Pettingill spot to watch the fireworks.





We had an awesome opportunity to go zip-lining at Heise Hot Spring. I work there so my boss was really great in getting us a time to go. We had a blast!

Well those are the little fun things that we did. We also went on two different trips and celebrated our 2nd anniversary. I will do separate posts for those.
