A Day at the Fair!!!

Yay! Another year of the Western Idaho Fair! It's not a fraction of the size of the Blackfoot fair, but its got Fair food and thats what matters... to Blake anyways! We braved the 102 degree weather and had our share of Fair food, the expo, and went broke playing a game where all you do is throw a ball in a bucket. We saw some shows, and somehow I found myself on stage for the hypnotism show... not sure what all went down there! Overall a days worth of fun! A yearly tradition! Couldn't be happier!
Since I started nursing, I've become a huge germaphobe... the animals only get a pat on the head this year.
goochie goochie goo
Blake always has to win me a toy! Its tradition!
This year the chinese acrobats didn't come, but instead they had African Acrobats. It was certainly different and even though the show was less than 5 minutes long, they did some awesome stuff!

Our Fur Baby!

I havent mentioned the third member of our family, our cat Charlie! Last winter Blake was doing a lot of out-of-town work and just coming home for the weekends, (and if you know my family, we cant seem to escape this curse!) So Blake bought me this little black kitty so I wouldn't feel so lonely! He's a little upset that I havent't mentioned him in our blog yet...
His favorite spot... not sure how that is comfortable...

Happy Birthday To Me!

Everyone at the pool

Its official, I have the cutest nieces!!

Blake invited all our family over to our apartment swimming pool for my birthday. It was so fun having everyone there even though the managers weren't too happy I had about 15 guests... oh well they'll live! Blake made my day really special by writing me a bunch of love notes, giving me a massage, taking me to one of my favorite restaurants (PF Changs ...lettuce wraps mmmmm!!!!) Thanks babe for such a fun birthday! I love you!

Nashville, Tennesee

Blake is a retailer for Dish Network, and a few weeks ago we were able to fly to Nashville and stay at the 5 star Gaylord Opryland hotel for the annual Dish Network retailer's convention! We had a blast in the hotel, and inside they had these atriums full of gardens and they even had these dancers dressed up like plants that wandered around! But even better, we saw Bare Naked Ladies (yeah, real ones) the BAND and we got to meet them after, thats pretty cool! All in a weekends work!

July

Oh my goodness... there went July! Well I guess Blake and I have been so focused on school and work we didn't notice that summer was waltzing on by! But we did have a chance to go to McCall again with Blake's family, it was our year for the condo but sadly we no longer can all fit in it! We are excited to announce that after lots of hard work from Blake and his partner Caleb, we are ready to move into our very own store! We will be signing a lease this week for a store on Fairview and Eagle, and we are SO EXCITED!!! That means my husband wont have to work such long hours!! YAY!!!!

Beautiful Tamarack

Tamarack was so beautiful and green! Too bad the bike lifts were closed when we got there... oh well. We had fun enjoying the lodge, the lake, and even some kayaking. We even had our good friends Brian and Clarisa join us!
