"The Office" Parties

Before my brother in law Mike left on his mission he loved The Office and never missed a show so when he got home in July he had 2 years of The Office to catch up on. So we decided to have an "Office" Party once a week to get him all caught up! He is almost done with all 4 seasons now! Good thing since the new season starts tomorrow..cant wait! Here are some highlights of the parties!

"The Office"


One of the nights Mike and his friends brought a bunch of "bad memories" to burn in our firepit!


One night Mike made us "Tongan" Sandwiches that he learned how to make in Ireland. They are made with Top Ramen. No offense Mike but these were not so good!



Jens loves The Office too!


In these pics are "one punch"(not sure of his real name thats what mike calls him...its mikes friend), Brian, Jenson, Mike(brother in law), Karly(Mikes girlfriend...Love her!), and Chris(Mikes other friend). Oh and all the food we ate on the table!



Whatever we do on Office nights we always have a blast!

Good Times at the Fair!!!

After Jens and I spent pretty much all last week sick in bed with a pretty harsh cold we decided to go to the Utah State Fair on Friday with Alicia and Kyle since we were feeling better. We had a blast even though Kyle made us go see this lame magic show that was dreadful to watch! Luckily Jenson had an issue and we didnt have any wipes with us so we had to go home and had to miss the rest of the show! We always have so much fun with Alicia and Kyle...they are our type of peeps!

Jens and Bri


Jens and me


Alicia and I in front of the tigers...


Jenson was pretty content in his stroller the whole time. He is a big people watcher...its keeps him entertained...as it does us!







You cant go the fair without getting a funnel cake...according to Alicia!

Cutest Neice in the World!!!

So I seriously have the cutest neice ever! She is such a little performer! I had to steal these pictures from my sisters blog to show everyone how cute she is! She started dance class today and she loves it! She is a little star! Oh and check out how small she is compared to everyone else. Crystal said she is the smallest one in the class...I have a feeling that is going to be the story of her life!

Family Fun in Rupert Idaho!

So this weekend we went to Rupert Idaho to see my Grandmas new house and my Aunt, Uncle and Cousins. It was so fun to see them all. We always have a blast everytime we go there. My Uncle just built my gramdmas new house and it is truly amazing. Its totally decked out! We got to go to Twin falls and see the new temple and we also got to go see Shoshone falls. Traveling with a baby was a little bit of a struggle though I must say. The first night we were there he didnt sleep very well at all! So we were super tired the rest of the time we were there but it was worth it. I just love my grandma and it was so fun to spend time with her. Her are some pics from our fun little get away!

Twin Falls Temple:

Brian was pretty sure he had a brilliant idea when he thought "we should totally throw rocks over the side into the water." The little boy inside them just couldnt resist!


NERDS!!!


BFF...well they will be one day! Check out Jensons big head compared to jack!


The best salsa ever! There is a store in Idaho called Riddleys and they really have some dang good salsa! We get it everytime we go there!
