A novel w/pictures!



Let me update you on our life lately...
We got new furniture for a sweet deal during the Ashley Furniture 4th of July sale! They were on back order for about 6 wks but we finally got them about a month ago and we love them!
They are so comfortable and look nice too! Something our first couch didn't provide! Ryan and I sold our old couch and coffee table on KSL in 3 days and now we love that website....it's awesome! Ryan got all his school text book this semester for $55 bucks!

Two weekends ago while Ryan was inbetween summer and fall semesters we took a mini vacation to LA, California. We flew in on Friday and went to Six Flags Magic Mtn! We rode some awesome rollar coasters and about died of standing in lines for hours and the heat beating down on us all day. It was still very fun! One of the best parts of this day was El Toritio Mexican restaurant that night! Seriously, BEST Mexican food we have ever had!!!!!!





Saturday we went to Hurrican Harbor water park, and had so much fun in the water and on the slides!


 Sunday we drove our rental car to Fresno, CA to visit some people from Ryan's mission. We got to see and visit with many of our good friends.





 I made Ryan buy me some fresh Fresno peaches because we couldn't find any famous Hmong Berries anywhere!  We drove back to LA that night and Monday we went to Manhatten Beach and flew home that night.






 It was so much fun to get away for a bit!
What else.....

The following weekend after our vacation we went to Lagoon with Ryans family. We had our pictures taken, I think they turned out cute!






This weekend we went to the Herriman Farmers Market that across the street from our home! We bought some awesome Tomatoes, an Anaheim Pepper, Yellow Squash, and some delcious Peaches!



I made some salsa before taking a picutre of all the tomatoes. After today we had 1 tomato left for the picture....The salsa turned out awesome though! We had it for our pre game college football snacks.

Go Oregon Ducks....!!!


I love Farmer Markets and I think they should be on every corner!

Oh, I just remembered something else new! We bought a new car for Ryan, and sold our old one Ryan was given after his mission. It's a 2006 Mazda Speed6. It's pretty fast and scares the crap out of me...here is what it looks like!



I think the last and final thing thats going on is we are moving this week. Ryan and I are SO excited to get a new place! We are so desperate for a more functional and safe home to live in! We will be so much closer to work and school. We got a sweet deal from this apartment complex! It 2bd 2 bath with 1100sq ft. The luxuries included are more than one outlet in the kitchen, a dishwasher and air conditioning! I know those things sound silly to have, but we have been without for the past year. We are excited and can't wait to get away from the situation we are currently in. This is going to be a good move for us! We figure it's been another year...time to move again. 

Goodbye to our second home.....




We will miss our 1940's pink bathroom!

Oh, my very last blip on this post!
