A video tour of our apartment coming soon! :)

Labor Day Weekend

I have been wanting to go camping for a couple years now. Basically since my last adventure in the Grand Canyon. My outdoorsy buddy Steven (older bro) left for Texas shortly after that adventure and I haven't found anyone to go with me since, so sad! This summer has been so busy with a wedding, moving in and work. Before I knew it summer was coming to an end and I still hadn't gone camping. I wanted to go for Labor Day weekend. My husband Adam wanted to stay home. So I combined what we both wanted and this is what happened. We stayed home and camped at the same time. 

 I bought this tent over a year ago. I was so excited to finally use it. It was bigger than I thought, it barely fit in the family room. It has an entry way section that definitely could not be set up.

 Roasted hot dogs on our little grill, lounged in our camping chairs and used the cool chest for a table. Notice our lights, first time using them after we put them up a few days prior.

 The Happy Griller!

The happy camper's ready to eat hot dog's, jalapeno chips and soda!

You can't go camping with out smores. I guess there is one good thing about having a gas stove, your can roast marshmallows over it. I found a flat marshmallow that is meant for smores.

 I wanted to try a Reese's smore and let me tell you it was Delicious!!

After our delicious smores we played a couple different card games. Growing up, my family always played card games when we went camping, so of course we had to too! I then allowed electricity (basically TV) back into the evening and we finished the evening with an episode of Lost. Adam had never seen Lost before but now he is hooked! :) In the morning around 5 am we woke up to thunder and lightening. It rained hard for about an hour. It's a good thing we camped inside! :)

Let's Try This Again........

I keep promising that I will update my blog and before I know it 2 years has gone by, Oops!! Let's try this again. Quite a bit happens in 2 years. Instead of over whelming you and myself with all the new changes. I will mention a few changes and fill you in on what's happening now:

1. I still live in Utah (was not the plan 3 years ago)
2. My baby brother James graduated high school, joined me in Utah for 2 semesters of college and left on a mission to Mexico. He's been out 15 months. Makes me feel old!
3. I have now been left in Utah by all family and friends from Cali :(
4. The biggest news is I changed from a Miss to a Mrs :)

5. Three of my new brother-in-laws have the same names as my brothers in the same order (David, Steven and James) Pretty Crazy!
6. My sweet puppy Kimba passed away

7. I am certified in Infant Massage
8. I finally have my own place to decorate, yeah!

That's all for now! New blog posts coming soon........
