I love coming home. There is no place more beautiful to me than Mink Creek, Idaho. We have been having a great weekend, despite me being sick. I have been sick since last Sunday-over a week now. I hate being sick. But home has been wonderful. We have been helping my dad fell trees and cut em up can haul 'em so he can use it for firewood this winter. It has been fun. We went way up the road and off a dirt road up a mountain for the trees. We found a ton of huckleberry bushes too! So we were picking a few and eating them-I have never had them before. They were SO good! I am definitely a fan of huckleberries now. We have had lots of fun with the family. We have played lots of games-settlers of catan, hand and food, scum... I totally rocked at all of them yesterday! haha. I am so happy we converted my dad to settlers of catan--he loves it now.
Anyway. It has been so fun spending time with my family. I am so grateful that we are so close and have such a great time together. My family is seriously awesome and I love them all so much.
So last night Spencer and I made stuffed jalapenos for the family. They were so yummy. My dad cooked them on the grill for us and they turned out really well.
Aside from all of that. Spencer did great this summer. I don't remember if I already mentioned but he did so well this past summer! He's doing pretty well this semester so far. We aren't that far into but so far it is going well. haha. Hopefully he keeps it up--I think he will.
Something fun! I actually won something! I entered a drawing on facebook for some free gourmet real vanilla. And I actually won! So we are getting 4- 4 ounce bottles of real vanilla, some coupons for some gourmet homemade root beer, and some coupons for the online gourmet food site. I am SUPER excited! We never win anything, so we are super excited.
Anyway, so things are going well for us. We are loving life and enjoying being married. I am so lucky to have Spencer in my life. He makes me so happy! We are both very sad to be going back to Provo today :( I love being home and I always hate leaving here. But still, things are going well and we are happy!
