Real Salt Lake Game

We spent a lovely Saturday night at the Real Salt Lake game.

It was perfect outside and the company was wonderful.

An hour and a half (and one large churro) later,

I had no idea what had happened during the game,

but I enjoyed on much people-watching and daydreaming.

I'm going to miss summer nights.

My head is a little white... as in BLANK.

I've been having a hard time thinking of things to blog about.
We are having a lot of fun and enjoying the last little while of our summer.
We start school in about 2 weeks so we are taking advantage of the little free time we have left.
I'll probably be back soon, but for now, I am a little uninspired.

P.S. I am reaaally really in love.
And I bet you couldn't guess with whom.

And that's that.

I am having the blues today.
This week has been a little hard.
Sometimes life gets to be a little too much.
So I spend my days doing only the necessary.

wake up.
work.
make dinner.
eat.
sleep. repeat.

But tomorrow we're going to Lagoon.
At which time, blues better be gone.
Because they sell FUNNEL CAKES.
and it's a know fact that funnel cakes make people happy.

Look it up- It's in the dictionary.

We try to always be busy ... BUSY having fun!

(gotta love the faces in the background)

This weekend we celebrated hubs birthday

by eating Brazilian cuisine,

tubing at the lake all day,

setting off fireworks with friends,

and spending time with our family.

Really, couldn't have asked for anything else...

It's our 4th birthday celebration together and

it only keeps getting better and better!

Here's to 100 more.

I love you.

*** You might have noticed that we ended up not going on our hike... just for the record, it wasnt my fault. James has had a hurt tendon in his leg for months and it only kept getting worse and worse. Result? They banned us from going until next year,(Did I really get that lucky?) as long as James leg works by then.***

I like to hike at 10:00 pm

I forgot to tell you about this weekend.

On Friday night we spontaneously decided to do a hike up in the Avenues.

IN THE DARK.

with no flashlights.

To a so called old CREMATION tower.

Did I mention I had heels on?

Or did I just tell you I got two blisters?

we were PERSUADED against our better judgement.

But the view was beautiful.

And so was the company.

Weekend Fun

This weekend we took a road trip to Oakley just to eat at this diner because in 2007 they moved it across the country and we couldnt let that opportunity pass us by. Lavern, our waitress, probably needs a couple more years of experience in this field, as it took us 2 hours to eat our dinner and and then 30 minutes to order dessert and actually receive it.

But besides Lavern, we had a good time!

Saturday, mother nature decided that she hated me more than anything and left me with a large basket full of decorations for my best friends baby shower. So I couldnt put anything up because of the wind and instead of a fancy little shower, we ended up having more of a picnic.

Overall we really enjoyed ourselves though.

Now, we are ready for a super busy week AKA my Birthday week!

Happy Monday!

Today starts Friday Night Flicks and also the best time of summer.

We have been going on Fridays forthe last 3 years and have loved it.

It's a way to have dates on a really small budget while still having a really good time.

Just bring along some blankets, big pillows and maybe even a Little Ceasar's pizza and you're set!

Side Effects of Summer

This weekend

I heard talent I didn't know existed.
I thought about life as the sun shone on my skin.
I held my dad's hand and wished I was little again.
I got excited about my future alongside him.
I dreamt of choosing; and I chose the life I already have.

It was a good weekend.

We Don't Mind it.

We might not know how to take pictures.

But we know how to eat ice cream on the side of the road

and guess where people who walk by us are from.

Then, we like to pretend we are foreigners too

and butcher the french language.

Moab only contributed to our bad manners

and never ending laughs.

Moab

Our weekend in Moab included but was not limited to

Hiking all over the place

Eating pizza until we felt sick

Making fun of germans and their funny clothes

Actually, making fun of all people.

We didn't want to come home.

Reasons To Be Happy

1. Leaving for Moab tomorrow morning.

2. Having a clean beautiful house to come home to after outings.

3. Having fresh fruit to make breakfast with in the morning

4. Little birds that stand right outside my window at work.

5. Being caught up with almost all filing in the office.

6. Not seeing people from work tomorrow.

7. Getting to eat super good pizza in Moab.

8. Finally getting in a pool again.

9. James finishing up his last exam of the semester!

10. Trees blooming pink flowers that make me

excited for the changes summer brings.

Subway... you mean the sandwich right?

Nope.

I just committed myself to go on a little hike later in July.

As soon as they said subway
I got all excited because I thought
it would involve me eating a five dollar foot long.

Big mistake.
It involves cold water, and heights,
and me going off of cliffs where there is HEIGHTS involved.

So, there. I needed to make sure to get that whine out
and have some cheese with it.
(I really need to stop relating everything to food)

I'm pretty sure it's going to make me poop my pants.
And yes, I meant poop. Not pee.
But I'm still excited.

I want it. All of it.

Yes, please.
