Bachelor Finale


I have a confession. I am a Bachelor addict. The finale is on Monday night. For those fellow addicts... (ahem, Amber, Jessica, Bonnie, Katy, and those I am not aware of) I will be hosting a little finale party. Anyone who would like to attend let me know. I will be making these tasty lil' treats (found here) so it should be oh so much fun.

New phone at last...


Forgot how nice it is to have a cell phone... yes this means you can contact me directly at last! On a side note we went to see Iron Man last night and it was pretty good, definitely one to see on the big screen.

All I Wanna Do (is have some fun)


Bob and I just bought our tickets to the Sheryl Crow concert! Ms. Crow is one of my all time favorite performers, so needless to say I am seriously excited. Can't wait to spread out our blanket and enjoy some good tunes. Just wish I didn't have to wait till August.

Moving, Roadtripping, and a little Indiana Jones (okay, a lot!)

Our weekend was a busy one. We helped Bonnie and Jon move into their brand new home...
(I think Jon and Bob were about ready to smack me cause I kept snapping pics.)



(Bonnie had these letters to spell out FAMILY, but we thought it would be funnier to do a little rearranging and see if anyone would notice)


Then on Saturday Bob, Eric, and I hopped in the car for a road trip up to Hyrum to attend our friend's wedding reception (Congrats Doug and Jen!) Here are a few pictures of this rowdy road trip..
Bob was our designated driver..
I was co-pilot, and Eric kept us entertained by singing in the backseat the whole time...

We went to dinner at Maddox in Brigham City before the wedding. I can't tell you how much I love their rolls and raspberry honey butter! (seriously, if you haven't been, take a trip and go!)

Then on our way back from the wedding we decided to stop at the "Haunted Indian School"... weird things happened there (see pictures below)



(You can tell Bob is not scared of anything!)


(Yes, Eric was hit by the car and I decided to take a picture instead of helping him.)

Spoooky. (actually I think we were more afraid that we were going to see a squatter peeing, than a ghost!)

On the ride home, Eric and I sang at the top of our lungs and Eric came up with a rap about Fozzie Bear. I would post the video of us all rapping, but I am afraid and Eric would kill me.

Then the Swenson's joined the partay and we went to see Baby Mama (much laughter ensued)

The weekend came to a close with Bob and I eating Rumbi and watching all three Indiana Jones movies on Sunday. (I was sick so we stayed in bed)

I must say that our busy weekend was super fun.

Happy Fiesta!

Cream Filled Strawberries

So our friend Gavin is graduating today! He has put in a lot of hard work, but he refuses to let anyone get him any presents. (seriously REFUSES) So instead we decided to surprise him last night and take him lot's of balloons (thanks Eric) and these cream filled strawberries. Congrats on graduating Gav, we love you!

I got this recipe from my aunt Kim (she is quite the gourmet). They turned out so pretty but most important... yummy! Here's whatcha do...

wash and core strawberries...

make the filling...

squeeze filling in strawberries, refrigerate, and drizzle chocolate...

Here is the finished product. (check comments for full recipe)

Kiddo's

Seeing pictures like this makes me want kids. But not for all the maternal reasons, mainly just so I can play dress up with them! (another reason why maybe Bob and I should wait a little longer before we go the kids route!)
