Another month down and a lot to report! Summer is definitely around the corner and has given us glimpses of super hot weather! This coming week, we have a heat warning to get up to 110 degrees! Whoa! Thank goodness for AC, I have a feeling we are going to need it :) I snapped this after work one day!
Again it has been some time since I have blogged recent happenings, so back it up a little bit to Memorial Day! The weather was rainy and somewhat cool so we hung in the house with some great friends, played cards, ate some good food, and went to the park :) Nothing beats a day off just relaxin!
Soon after Memorial Day, our friends Kim and Greg Hemmert were FINALLY able to adopt their sweet foster child that they have had since he was a baby! It was such an exciting day and he had so many people there to support him!! We love Mr. Isaac and he was such a little prince :)
We were able to make a visit out to Twin Falls again for the weekend of Father's Day. Such an awesome trip! My aunt and uncle and cousins were also there visiting from Arizona :) My cousin Riley will be leaving on his mission to England soon so we of course had to sneak in some pictures! Our middle name is fun and we crammed so much in that weekend, it was the best! We got to go spend time with both families, go jet skiing several times in the river, see the races at the speedway, go bowling, see the new superman movie, do pictures, and spend time with dad for Father's day :) My mom had a bit of a scare with some severe chest pains and had to spend some of father's day at the hospital getting some tests done. Not fun! Glad that she is doing better! Always grateful for time spent with family in Twin Falls :)
Last weekend we were able to make an overnight trip to Spokane for a special trip! We went with some friends from work to Jeff Dunham! We love his shows and comedy and it was so good. I got all dolled up to go and it ended up pouring rain and of course, it was outside! He was worth sitting in the rain though :) We stayed the night and spent the next day shopping and eating at our favorite burger place, Fatburger :)
Since the weather is warming up, we are finally able to start doing outdoor things! Between buying Jordan a bike and finding a bike rack to fit our car, we have been excited to take a bike ride along the river in Lewiston/Clarkston. The Hemmerts took a ride with us after getting a new bike trailer for Isaac and Remi. Our cheeks were super sore the next few days after the 4 mile ride, but it was a beautiful night and ride!
July brings some exciting things like our FIRST anniversary and my family will be coming to visit for the 4th of July for the first time since we have lived in Lewiston. This girl is SUPER excited! Not that Lewiston is exciting or anything..... :)
I had to be to work super super early yesterday morning and was able to watch the breathtaking sunrise! I may not like living in Lewiston for several reasons, but their sunrises and sunsets are amazing :)
It has been raining like CRAZY the past few days and here is a snapshot of just how insane it has been! There is a HUGE blue bridge that spans the river between Lewiston and Clarkston and after all the rain today, it was completely flooded! Check out this pic.... Holy cow!
Well that is about the coolest things we have had happen this past month and we are looking forward to family visits, camping, and pure craziness in July with everything we have going on! August brings a trip to Twin falls for photography sessions and..... BEAR LAKE!! Ahh can't wait!!
On an unrelated note, I made this amazing recipe for the first time and it was TO DIE FOR! If you missed the facebook posting of the recipe, here it is again! Try it. Do it. Love it.
Love, Jordan and Elise
