back from Hawaii {sad face}

The last two weeks feel like a fast dream that is full of wonderful memories. {more pictures and posts to come} It's definitely hard to come home from literal paradise and go back to normal life, although we had so much fun and had such a stress free time I think we will have to incorporate some of it around here.
School starts in 25 days!!! Crazy!!! Is time going by faster than usual or is this how people start feeling when they are getting older? I think the only reason I am counting down the days is because I have to CHOOSE a major. Choose what I want to do with my life. More on that later. Thinking about it makes me want to cry.

On a happy little note, I am seriously eyeing these two pairs. the only way to survive beginning of school.

and the fireworks went BOOM!!!

Enjoyed these beauties from my front lawn last night. The finally sounded like, what I would imagine, a war would sound.  Loved everything about them, even the burned gun powder smell afterwards. Happy 4th of July everyone! be safe

PS the fifth picture fireworks-wouldn't they be fabulous at a wedding?!! i told my thirteen year old lil brother to save his pennies for his weddings fireworks

first trip to the lake

Last weekend we have finally matched our days off and decided to get out of town and go to Bear Lake. It's only about an hour away from Logan and the weather was absolutely perfect. Our friend Simon came with us as well and it's really fun to share our fun with him, since he is not from here and it's always more fun to take new people to the places that we love and know. We rented a canoe and brought our fishing poles. We rowed across the lake, ate our lunch right in the middle of it and enjoyed watching other people sailing their beautiful sailing boats. Fishing didn't really go as well as I was hoping, yeah we didn't catch any fish at all, but we did see them swimming under our boat! Seriously, I was ready to jump in after them! The water was the most gorgeous turquoise color and really sparkly. The sun was perfectly above us and all three of us got unexpected sunburns, I can still hardly wear anything with straps and trying to wear as little clothing as possible, ha, thank goodness I had sunscreen on my face as well as a hat and sunnies. Afterwards we got famous Bear Lake raspberries milkshakes and went on a hike. We were going to go camping in the evening, but due to wild forest fires that have been going on in UT we couldn't have a campfire. That didn't stop us from setting up a tent in the living room and cooking up some hot dogs in a cooking pan. Overall last weekend couldn't have been better than it was, besides our sunburns that I am still waiting to turn into a nice tan for Hawaii in two weeks! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and ready for the fireworks tomorrow and the 4th!

 Hi all! So, it's been a while ;) Summer is in it's full swing around  here. Besides work we've been fishing, enjoying the sun, a few household projects ( they deserve their own post), sleeping in, cooking together and just plain being lazy (yeah, that's fun too)!! 

 My new mug from Anthropologie and i totally did not mean to match my nails to it, but they did! Does that store have anything that isn't cute? The last pic is of our couch that I gave a makeover myself :) 

 Boys enjoying driving their favorite cars on Kinect, you should have seen the big grins on their faces :)

Sushi is my fav! 

 Enjoyed a sunny Sunday and got some much needed sun on my legs

Hiking and exploring sites for camping this weekend, yay can't wait! 

I hope you are all enjoying your summer. I will most likely be MIA having fun outside!
