Mesa Falls!

Last Sat Cody and I were celebrating our reunion and decided to do a spur of the moment trip to mesa falls for a picnic and a nice drive. So we stopped at a gas station in Island Park and the people working there gave us a bunch more suggestions of places to go so we declared it a full out adventure and have some neat pictures that came from it. Three places were the coolest. First was this beeautiful spring that just rushed out of the mountain and had the clearest water ever! And a 25 pound rainbow trout. What a fat fish!

Then we went on to Mesa Falls which was beautiful as ever and they had a special education lodge with information on the area and animals. There were tons of animal hides that you could touch and identify. It made me want to have kids so I could take them there :(

Lastly we went way off the beaten road to a place called Cave Falls. It's a beautiful waterfall that has a big cave next to it that you could walk in and hear the pounding of the water against the ceiling. Very neat. So we had a wonderful lunch of bagal sandwiches and sparkling cider (which Cody used his can opening flip flop for- no joke). Overall a lovely day!

It's a little slow at work and I thought I'd jot down some stuff to kill time. So the last couple of days have been terrible. Stupid BYU-Idaho deemed it necessary to steal a group of husbands away from their wives just to run some group and team building for the buisness program. Dumb! So Wed morning Cody took off for Badger Creek (my old EFY job) and he won't be getting back till tonight. Yeah- three days! I know! It's a miracle I've made it this long. And if you think I'm pathetic remember when you all first got married and you couldn't stand to be away from your spouse? Well it sucks. I've managed to not be too scared of the dark and I even am able to carry on every day functions without him. So to celebrate when he comes back tonight we are going to have company chicken and figure out something to do since our TV is in the repair shop for a week. Who needs a TV anyway when you're newly weds! :)

our home!!!

We are all moved in and very happy with our new home. Cody's not so happy about having to go back to school and I'm not so happy about working but I guess it just makes you appreciate the good times all the more. So I got a job with a law firm working the front desk. It seems like my list of stuff that I have to do is never ending but the one that I'm really struggling with is to translate for spanish clients and give legal council to them. When really all I can do is teach the gospel in spanish. What drama!

Poor Cody has to spend the whole semester taking a ton of classes and doing a 3 month long group project of planning, funding and executing a money making project on Campus. He's pretty overwhelmed!

These pictures are of our living room and kitchen (the rest of the house isn't really that exciting. I'll have to take a picture of it out front in the morning when it's light. Nice huh? And we only had to buy a 75 dollar table and the rest was given to us. Nice huh?

nice pic huh?

well family and friends I am finally back in my favorite little college town... Rexburg! Except this time I have no rules and no cerfew and no dress regulations! And I have a lovely home that we just got done moving into! (pictures will follow in the next post). So now I've just begun the long and painful journey of finding a job. So put me in your prayers everyone!

This picture is of Cody racing down the freeway next to me- going like 80 mph. Oh I love his bike so much. We both got permits to drive and I take it out whenever possible. Such a thrill! And don't worry I'm being plenty safe. Well that's about it for us. I can't wait to get pictures I my new home up!
