Sunday Dinner

We wanted to have Brooke and Phil over for dinner and we had a whole bunch of rice and beans that Ben had made, so we decided to do Cafe Rio style burritos and follow it with fried icecream for dessert! It was amazing! The kids were hilarious playing. Here's Chase showing his love for clomping around in big people shoes!

Well, I would say it's a bitter sweet moment, but it's not...just sweet. We are so happy to have sold our trailer.

Knock out!

Well, I decided even though I wasn't feeling great to go to work, by the time I got ready and got to work, I was exhausted. I ended up just making lesson plans for the day and making a doctors appointment, only to find out that I have strep! The good news is that since I took the day off, I was able to come home and sleep for about 5 hours along with the other 2 hours I spent on the couch watching the Green Hornet. I wasn't totally unproductive though! I decided to put together the flowers I bought a little while back. They are really neat and I'm hoping this will add a little more to the office!

Twin Falls Perks!

Wow! What an amazing perk of living here!!! Shoshone falls is always amazing in the spring when the runoff is flowing! It's so close, so we decided to call Brooke and Phil and go for a little hike and see the falls. It was a blast and other than a bit misty was a nice little outting!

Wall decor options....

So I'm looking for opinions on how to do our wall blocks... what do you think?

Spring?

What better to do than plant trees on one of the first warm days we've had? Ben picked out this funky little tree today while we were shopping around and I helped him plant it when we got home. We also got some quakies for the back yard to help fill out some groupings with the other trees we are planning for. I am way excited to be filling our void lawn with some lush, bright foliage!

Prom 2011: Hollywood

Well, "everybody dies famous in a small town" is soooo true! Prom this year was a big hit! I can't believe how many parents and staff members came to support us! Here's a few preview photos until I can get the ones from the school!
