Little Vacation to McCall

This past weekend we got the chance to go to McCall and hang out with Justin's cousins. I had never been up to McCall but Justin had when he was little and went with his cousin's a lot. We figured we would go since we only lived a few hours away. His aunt and uncle rented a house on the lake, it was so pretty up there and we really had a great time with the cousins. They also have a boat but the day we got up to the lake the boat had a issue so we ended up not boating but that was fine cause we really like just hanging out with the family. Even though it was a short trip we had tons of fun walking around and enjoying the nature.

Justin's Cousin is Home From Her Mission

So we just got back from Utah exactly two weeks ago. Yes we are down here again for a Missionary Homecoming. Justin's Cousin Caity has returned from the Spain, Madrid Mission. We both were excited to see her. We did come down on that Friday and stayed at Justin's parents house and hung out with them again on Saturday, they took us out to dinner at California Pizza Kitchen YUMMY!!! Sunday was Caity's Homecoming talk and she did a really good job. Afterwards we went the the house and some YUMMY food and was able to talk to her when she had time. Everybody wanted to talk to her. But Caity's familly was coming up to McCall, Idaho that following week and invited us to come up since we did live close to McCall. We came home that Sunday afternoon and enjoyed the trip. The next trip we will be going on this coming weekend is going to McCall.

Trip to Utah My Dad's Birthday Lunch, Wedding Reception and a Baby Blessing

Wow we keep having this trips to Utah. I just got back from Utah at the beginning of July and now we just got back and will be going down again in two weeks. This is weekend happened to be very busy. We stopped and hung out with my family on July 30th and celebrated my dad's birthday party lunch at Maddox the best place to eat and enjoyed hanging out with the family. Later that night we had a wedding reception to go that was one of Justin's friends the reception was close to where my parents lived so afterwards we went and played some games with the family and got to talk to everyone and just relax it was great. Afterwards we headed down to orem to stay the night at his parents house and get a chance to hang out with them. The next day we had a cousin baby blessing to attend in provo. Justin's cousin Jenny had a baby girl and she is very cute. That night we headed home and had a fun weekend. Ok so I only have pictures from the lunch for my dad's birthday. The last picture shown here is the Brigham City Temple, of course it is beautiful and in a way reminds me of the Salt Lake City Temple.

My trip to Utah

My sister Raquel and her daughter Ivy

I finally got to take a week trip to Utah and visit some family and friends. Justin was not able to go due to work I got to go by myself. Couple days before my mom and my sister and her twin boys come up for a quick trip to see me and than I rode back with them to Utah. We left Friday morning July 8th. Last year my parents decided to get a boat so that my dad could use it to go fishing but I think my sisters and parents use it more for going boating, tubing. wake boarding. That Saturday the 9th I wanted to go boating so we got the boat ready to take out to the lake. My whole family was able to come with me except of course Justin and a couple of my sisters were not able to make it. I was debating on taking my camera but really didn't want to get it wet sorry no pictures of the boat trip. Monday it was Justin's twin sister's birthday. So I met up with them and Justin's parent's for dinner went to Texas Roadhouse. Through out the week my mom and I watched the kids and had fun enjoying everybody that I visited. The kids did get a chance to get in the kiddie pool that my mom bought for the kids and they loved that. We also went and played miniature golf at cherry hills. Wow that place has a changed a lot since the last time I had played there, and again I was terrible at taking pictures this trip I was having so much fun. But I did get some of the kids playing outside in the pool. At the end of the month Justin and I are going to Utah for a wedding and my dad's birthday so I will get pictures for that. Well I hope you enjoy reading my blog. Hopefully not to boring for reading. 

Fourth of July

So this fourth of July we actually ended up doing something together. Last year when we lived in Utah Justin ended up working on the Fourth of July. This year we went on a hike with some friends Tim and Annie they are from Arizona. Justin and I originally didn't have anything scheduled and our friends did have some plans with some family up in the area but they were free during the day. So they invited us to go on a hike with them which was fun but very hot seeing how we decided to go right at noon. The view from the hike was really nice and got some great views of downtown Boise. Afterwards we decided to go to the Old State Penitentiary jailhouse and took a tour it was really interesting place to learn about. We than packed lunches and found a park and enjoyed the nature around us. Later that night we both really tired and didn't feel like going to fireworks I know who doesn't see fireworks. But we did watch them on the T.V. which was nice cause we didn't have to fight the crowds and be in traffic.

Old Ye Renaissance Fair

Today Justin and I were invited by some friends in our apt complex to come to this Renaissance Fair that Justin's friend heard about. Justin and I figured why not lets give it a shot it could be fun. So we ended up going after lunch time. It actually turned out to be really fun. The weather was not fun though. We had been there for about 30 minutes and it started to sprinkle but that didn't seem to bother us. We walked around looking at different booths and listened to some of the stories and saw entertainment including some skits from Shakespeare. There was even one booth that had some pirates there. By the time we were ready to go it started pouring so I am glad that we got there before it got to this point. Well enjoy some pictures from this day.

Our New Apartment

Living room/Family room

Our apartment is so awesome and we are both loving it, much better than the Wymount Terrace apartments we were living in. We do miss it a little bit but I don't miss the Cinder Block Walls I love that we A/C here in the new apartment. I can't believe that we have been in this apartment for one month the time is going so fast. Justin seems to be liking his job with Micron. As for me I have not been having so much luck with the job hunt. I have applied for several jobs and have heard back from three of them so far and no luck. The thing that stinks is I worked as a Medical Assistant and a lot of the clinics up here hire nurses. So the jobs I have been applying for want experience and I don't really have the experience they are looking for. So while Justin is working I have been looking online for jobs and it has been very stressful. But I know that Lord will have something planned for me and everything will work out. I have not taken pictures of the apartment yet like I said bad at taking pictures but I'll work harder at that and get some pictures up.
