just under the purple arrow!!
very cool huh?!?!
Wednesday night I had Beau take me on a date up to the East bench of Salt Lake City to this great little book shop called The King's English where I got to meet one of my favorite blog writers and now cookbook author!
There she is... Ree Drummond
Here's the crowd of people waiting for there letter to be called to go into the book store to see Ree!
















Well it's been a while since I've done anything with the blog. I figured I should at least express some thoughts and things happening. I can't believe its September and that summer is pretty much over! We have some exciting couple of months coming ahead of us! I love this time of year, lots of fun things to look forward to. Lots of family get together's. The weather changing. I love the fall but not what comes after it! We have one last camping trip before the summer really ends. We're going out to Great Basin National Park. I'm so excited! I haven't been outdoors like usual summers cause Beau's been gone on scout outings so this is my real first camping trip of the year! October is just chuck full for us! The biggest thing happening is that my little brother Brandon will be returning home from his mission in Des Moines, Iowa! I can't believe he's been gone for 2 years already! It will be great to have him back! Before he comes home we are taking a quick trip to San Francisco to see the Grandparents! Oh! how we love San Francisco! We are so grateful for the chance to go out there for just a bit!
Then Beau has 2 full weekends of camping for Wood Badge training. I'll miss him so much! But he will have a blast learning tons of stuff to help his boy scouts! Then it's Thanksgiving then CHRISTMAS! oh, WOW has the year gone by sooo fast!
Things are going great in our little home. Still just working everyday all day long! We are so grateful for our jobs and that things are looking up a bit for the companies in this crazy economy! Beau loves bossing people around :) just kidding. But he is in a new position and is managing people and being Mr. Boss. We love our ward and callings. Beau is such an awesome Scout Master. I've been on a coupon-ing kick. I've been a crazy coupon-shopper for a while now and can't believe I've paid full price for things that I've just had to run to the store and get.
My goal is to have things in "stock" in my cupboards and always have things we need to just make a meal. Instead of running to the store for this and that. Though I do really wish I could be a Crazy food pantry woman with a whole basement of supplies! :) But it's gunna be a while for that!
Anyways! Check back for pictures on our upcoming events :)
Love ya!
