Because some days I just need a good laugh.

Please tell me this made you laugh as much as it did me. We have been quoting it all weekend. Episode 2 is my favorite, but 3 and 4 are pretty hilarious as well. Enjoy and let me know if it made you laugh. :) p.s. the serious/real preview to the show is almost as good as these spoofs. could this really have been a show that people watched?! be sure to check it out as well.

We heart Idaho.

Oh Idaho how we love you and are going to miss you! Idaho is where we met, married and started a family together. It is where all of our first family memories were made. It is where we lived and learned . We experienced the joy of holding a new baby in our arms (twice) and unfortunately the devastating sadness of burying a baby . We made lifelong friends and came to the realization that even if you aren't related to someone they can still be family. We loved the slow and steady lifestyle that exists there and used it to our every advantage. We explored our surroundings, taught Little Guy (the little bit we know) about farming, visited my grandma's, played with friends and cousins, ate at Puerto Vallarta (which happens to be the best mexican food around) and the Snake Bite, shopped at the local farmer's market, drove to see the windmills, visited Michael, lived blocks away from Target, grew to love our neighborhood and ward members, discovered new parks, and just plain ...

For the emotional eater in me.

Today is Little Guy's last day at his preschool here. I swear it was just last month that he had his first day. Oh wait, that's because it was just last month . We have four and a half more days left before we move our entire lives to a new, big, intimidating place. I most likely won't get to say goodbye to even half of the people I would like to. It's all happened so incredibly fast and yet it took so long to finally come about. We feel so blessed for this opportunity and I am determined to embrace this change despite how hard it may be. I am going to pack up my things with a smile on my face and gratitude in my heart. But first I'm going to finish my pie.
