Boise Music Festival

This weekend was our Wacky Weened at work! I finally have a flag shirt now
'murrica!

And here's a random picture of me and Tucker that I found
He was more interested in the yogurt drops

This week has been the normal, working, studying and homework for us. We needed to go have some fun so we went to the Boise Music Festival! (Thanks to ICCU for the tickets) I haven't been in a couple years and I remember why haha... it's super hot and crowded. It was nicer in the evening when the sun was going down. I love the fair atmosphere though and all the fried food smells, yum! Dan and I mostly wanted to see Train so in the meantime we hung out in the shade and people watched. People are so interesting! And as a side note, the hip fashion choices for the 12-16 age group right now suck. High wasted mom jean shorts need to stop. Haha they're not flattering! Anyways we luckily found an amazing parking spot and were able to see Train. We were actually pretty far from the stage but the sound was crystal clear so I didn't really care about actually seeing him haha. He was okay live. Kind of what I expected (missed some of the high notes sometimes) but I still enjoyed it! Dan and I know and love a lot of their songs so it was fun. 


We skipped the expensive, over priced fair food and went and got something local on our way home. What's more local than Westside Drive In? Shakes and fries!

We decided we should go back for an actual meal because everything looked delicious


I've tried some new recipes lately!

These are the best homemade brownies I have yet to find. The batter is super thick but they turn out so chewy and moist (I know some people hate that word, but I don't care). They don't keep super well for more than 2-3 days so make sure you have people to devour them right away. Recipe found here!

The second one I tried was a potato soup I made for a sick friend. I don't have very many soup recipes that I've tried and loved because Dan isn't a huge fan of soup. I love soup though! I tried this one because it looked easy and I have an immersion blender (Side note: somehow I ended up not splattering boiling hot soup all over me while trying to do that, miracle!). I really liked it and will probably make it again! And it's from Pioneer Woman so truly, how could you go wrong? Recipe found over here!

My birthday is coming up! This brings me to some work stories. Members are asking me what I'm doing for the 4th. I tell them the usual, probably BBQ, family friends and fireworks. And then I say we'll probably celebrate my birthday that weekend too. After the whole, 'Oh happy birthday! I hope it's great!' They ask how old I am. Since I'm hard to offend in that area I ask them to take a stab at it.

"You don't look a day over 16!"
"I'm going to guess high.... 20-22?"
"Definitely 24" (This person knew I was married and a little bit more about me)

So anywhere from the 16-24 range, not too bad. But really I'm turning 22. I have a feeling I'm going to be dancing around in our bedroom to 22 by TSwift. But if I don't, I'm missing a ONCE IN A LIFETIME opportunity so I can't pass that up. I can't decide what I want to do for my birthday. I'm always bad at telling people what I want too. We found a solution for that by making an amazon wishlist. It's like pinterest for things you legitimately want!

Anyways I'm super excited for the next coming weeks; Mama R's birthday, CPA Exam, my birthday, America's birthday, Colorado then Canada! This coming month is going to be busy!

We had a lot going on this weekend! Some good. Some bad. I woke up to this Friday the morning What a great way to start a Friday morning without work! I seriously have the kindest man ever. He's so thoughtful After he got out of class and before I had class we snuck in a last minute temple session . Who knew it would be so packed on a Friday mid day! I rushed (because I hate being late) but it was so worth it once you get there and just feel peace . That evening after classes and homework, we drove down to Idaho Falls for a family BBQ the evening before Logan and Amanda got married . The BBQ was great and I loved seeing all my family and meeting some of Amanda's family. I even got a picture with Sister Bullock :) All while this was happening my parents were supposed to be making the trip to IF and be there for the BBQ. I had heard briefly from my mom that Dad wasn't able to get off work and that they would be late. Then it got the point they wou

This is Important

So I've given this a lot of thought and with some advice from Dan the man, we've decided to go ahead and make our blog private from now on. This means that only those whose emails are on my readers list can view it. WHY Lately I've been thinking about the publicity and the openness of the internet and I don't want my security and my family's security to be a worry because the things I post on my blog. I realized that the reason I am blogging is; 1) For me as a journal and to record and read back on fun memories and 2) So family and friends can stay in contact and feel like we're apart of each other's lives even when we're far apart. Although the page views of all my Facebook friends and others reading my blog has been really nice (I'll admit, I like the numbers) I've realized that I enjoy some privacy more. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? This means that if you would like to continue reading our blog that I am going to need your email address

  Love My boys! Nate's face! Brooks being silly Another round of sickness in our house. Brooks always seems to get a headache, spike a fever, pass out somewhere and wake up later feeling most of the way better. This time we ended up getting cold symptoms afterwards. When I got sick I was tested and whatever it is it's not covid. Dan got it last and was sick into February. It was lingering so he tested again and it was again negative. So whatever we had was mild, still not fun and stuck around forever. We have this cute bible book about Noah's ark. Carson starts looking at it and pointing to Noah says, "Santa Claus!" Oh. yes I can see how you think that haha. So we kept telling him no, it's Noah. He points to Noah's wife and says, "Mama!" hahaha so I'm either Noah's wife (they look very old in the book) or Mrs. Claus. Not sure whether to be offended or not haha! We sold our small freezer and upgraded to this beauty! I love it! I love being
