More fun in Utah

In July I was able to make another trip back to Utah with Conrad. we spent some time with the Mickelsen family and said goodbye to Conrads parents before they left for their mission to Germany. We were able to meet our newest little nephew Liam and be there for his baby blessing.

It was pretty much a party everyday. Lots of yummy food, games and rock climbing on my brother and sister inlaws new rock wall. 

As always we had a lot of fun and it went by way too fast

Right now our future is so completely up in the air right now.

Conrad graduates next month and he takes the bar exam in July.

After that, I have no idea where we will be or what we are doing and that freaks me out a little...maybe a lot. 

I just have to remember Gordon B. Hinckley's words and know that, "Everything will work out."
I might need to plaster that quote all over my apartment as a constant reminder.

Lately, I have had no motivation to blog.  Its no longer new and exciting for me. 

Instagram has become the new and exciting thing.

I'm pretty new to it.
I have to refrain myself from posting every picture I take with my phone... Especially since most of them are of my dog.

Since when did I become the crazy overly obsessed dog lady?
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem right?

Life has been pretty darn good and Instagram has been a great way to compile and share our fun moments...      
until the next new and exciting thing comes along of course :)

Conrad Making Dinner?

Conrad and I recently got Costco memberships, and we are pretty excited about it. I asked Conrad if he felt like a real family man now that he was officially in the Costco club,  because you know its such a big deal to have a membership, its not like everyone and their dog has one ;-). We were like two kids in a candy store walking around wanting to buy everything, and when I say everything I mean Conrad wanted all the electronic stuff and I wanted all the sweets. We both agreed that now that we were shopping at Costco that we would eat out less and eat healthier (emphasis on the ER part)... baby steps. Conrad insisted on buying salmon becasuse its healthier than red meat, well if you know me, I dont like any sort of seafood but we made a compromise that if he cooked it I would eat it. As soon as we got home he went straight to work on preparing dinner for us. I was shocked! I didn't actually think he would go through with cooking it. This guy won't even make himself a sandwich or put a piece of bread in the toaster because it is "too much effort" and yet he is more than willing to cook the turkey every Thanksgiving (which he is really good at) and now apparently salmon... hmmm I can't really figure that one out but i'm not complaining one bit.

 

 So of course I had to document this very rare occasion of Conrad cooking.

 

 

He did a great job, and I ate it and liked it. He always does a great job when he cooks. I think he should cook more often ;-).
