Weenie Boats

Pretty much every Sunday evening we enjoy dinner with Jo. Tonight we tried a new recipe! Weenie boats. Okay it may look and sound disgusting but they are actually yummy (that is, if you can stand a hot dog!). They are very simple to make; take a hot diggity dog slice it in half long ways, then top with mashed potatoes and sprinkle cheddar cheese on top. So easy and the kiddos will love em!

P TOWN

We had an eventful evening in Provo yesterday. Seeing Steve and Jessie married was a trip!! The boys skated while the girls chilled, the sun was so warm it felt great. After the skate session we headed across the street to Jules and Russell's house. We ate yummy pizza from CPK and hung out all night laughing and chit chattin. We always enjoy being around friends!

Carni Time!

The Utah State Fair was taking place not to far from us so we headed over with Ambs, Baby Andy and Kent. I can not decide which was better; the entertainment we got from people watching or the yummy fried, fatty, greasy, expensive carni food? Do you have any favorite carni foods?
Andy enjoyed petting the animals but was scared by the loud noises the creepy roller coasters made. The boys talked music all evening long, while Ambs and I discussed random issues. We had fun laughing all evening! Did I mention it costs the two of us a total of $4 to get in? All our money was spent on the food! My belly still aches.

In my ELEMENTE. . .

I discovered a hidden store the other day! Elemente is filled with vintage and antique home goods. I found many great pieces that would look fabulous in our home. Many of the pieces throughout the store were in pretty good shape (being that they were old and all). Britt we will check it out next time you are here.

Artsy fartsy

Continueing with my explorations of Utah we visited the Utah Museum of Fine Art. Being that today was a rather gloomy day and we had already visited the Rack with Jeff getting a bit rain soaked an inside activity was sounding rather good. The artifacts from ancient pasts were eye catching. The hand beaded Indian works were a favorite along side the pop- up art work of Robert Sabuda.

New Blogger

I told myself I wouldn't ever post up on our blog, but there is a first time for everything. I have been easing into Utah life and have been keeping myself busy with skateboarding and school. I went up to Park City this weekend to skate and shoot some photo's. Here are a few from the weekend.

Can you keep a Secret?

I had been wanting to go on a hike expolring what the mountains of Utah have to offer. Not much was going on Monday so Jo, Ambs (and baby Andy) and I thought we would go on an adventure! We embarked on what was thought to be a short somewhat fast hike to Cecret Lake (pronounced Secret). The drive thru the canyon was gorgeous, the hike was a sweaty workout, the mountain air was refreshing. We made it to the top! Thanks to Jo carrying Andy on her shoulders up the steep slate rock. The water was chilly and we saw some tiny fish. We had a fun time!
