Now that school's out...

Now that school's out...I can tell you some funny things (or just normal) that have happened during the semester that I didn't have time to write about.

1. Love is...when your husband realizes that he forgot his belt and finds you on campus just to borrow your rhinestone belt for the day and you willingly give it up because that's how much you love him. Good thing he was wearing a shirt that would cover it because I wasn't about to offer him my shirt too.

2. Entertaining is...when it's a super windy day that you wonder why you even decided to brush your hair that morning and as you are walking to work you come across a guy on campus who was walking backwards. Not for a second. For a solid 3 minutes. I know because I will admit that I watched him until I couldn't see him anymore and after arguing with myself for those 3 minutes I decided against taking a video.

3. Heart-pumping is...when you are sitting on the bottom floor of the MC (building on campus) just minding your own business when a girl decides to set her book bag down two chairs away from you and then asks you to watch it (ummm...okay, you just got here and now you're leaving? Whatever). All of a sudden a guy walks up, grabs her book bag and starts hauling off with it. Umm...okay this is just awesome, I love confrontation, but what's a girl supposed to do? So I stand up amongst many who are quietly studying and I pointed to that guy and said "Hey, that's not yours!" So the guy stops and laughs and says "good"...Excuse me? Good? Then he proceeds to come over and tell me that they were performing an experiment for a class. All of a sudden that girl and two other people come over. Awesome. Let's just call it a party shall we? Have you seen that show on Dateline NBC called "What would you do?"

4. Fun is... having an NCIS sleepover on the living room floor JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN!

5. Relieved is...when you finally finish a beastly semester that was more painful than going to the doctor's to get a shot (yes, I really hate shots that much. thanks).

6. Delicious is... when you are on the look-out for a nice jambalaya recipe and come across this little gem: Jambalaya with an Orzo Twist. See our picture of this on previous post.

8. Sad is...when some really good friends move and begin a new chapter in their lives.

 7. Craftiness is...when you made the best thing you have ever made in your life (thanks Jamie for the drive to be creative):

 Next week we are off to the great Moab,Utah with Jeff's side of the  family for lots of FUN! I will be sure to take pictures so don't you worry!

We love life :)

Welp, let's just say...

There are MANY things that I need to catch up on. For those very few of you who read my blog, let's just say I'm sorry for not posting in...months. Let's just say until 2 nights ago, I thought there was no SD card reader on my computer...then I started holding it up randomly to my face and realized it. Right. There. On. The. Front. Of. My. Computer. Here take a look see:

Moving on. Remember when I told you that Jeff and I were going on a trip to Salt Lake City? Probably not. That's fine. Well we went and it was really fun! Here are some pictures of that!

Temple Square...So PRETTY!

That was a really fun trip and was it's so nice to have Jeff back home with me :)

Here are some yummy creations we have made this year so far....Thank you pinterest and random blogs!

Taco Bites

 And we went to a ball and in case you were wondering....my sweet husband surprised me and bought me that dress without me knowing! Little Stinker! I L.O.V.E. it. But more than that, I love him of course :)

 So, as you can see, we have had a lot of fun recently! And there is still more fun yet to come. We signed up for a race this summer! I am so excited!

And some exciting news... I am graduating in April 2014! Almost 1 year from now! Originally it was going to be December 2014, but we decided to sign me up for fast grad so I will be going to school non-stop until I am graduated with a few breaks here and there. WOOHOOO! Here I come cap and gown!

Could Life Get Any Better?

Jeff has come home and Christmas has passed so I suppose I am due for another blog post. Jeff got home 13 days ago and it was such a happy day!! I didn't think I would be nervous, but when I walked into the airport, the reality of it all hit me. My husband was coming home. For good. I was nervous. I didn't bawl my eyes out like I had expected, but I definitely did get teary eyed. That night we went out to eat together then back to Rexburg.

Here are some pictures:

Oh, that was such a good day! We are just having the best time being together again doing whatever whenever. We had a really great Christmas and are so happy that we could be together for that. Here is a picture of us on Christmas morning:

Next week we are off on a mini vacation to Salt Lake. We are really excited! Hope you had a great Christmas!
