Zoo Day!

The weather finally has warmed up enough to enjoy our weekend outside!  Saturday Austin, Claire and I went to the Boise Zoo!  The latest exhibit is the Jellyfish exhibit, although it was small it was still pretty cool! 

 Our Little Turtle! 

Claire took this one, she always enjoys seeing all the animals! 

Family Night at Big Al's

Monday night was family night at Big Al's!  We started the evening with a delicious dinner and then on to bowling!  We teamed up... Kent, Melody, Austin, and I versus Meghan, Tony, Kameron, and Lindsey and as you can see we were victorious!  It was such a fun night, we couldn't have enjoyed ourselves more! 

Austin held a strong score the entire night!

I couldn't believe the strength behind Kent's throw... Even the pins on the opposite side of where his ball was seem to tip over due to the sheer velocity of his throw, it was incredible! 

It sure was fun getting together, it was even more fun because we won!  Thank you so much Kent and Melody for such a wonderful experience! 

Hawaii Part II

 I found a few more photos on Austin's phone that I just had to share!  This was so awesome, we were walking the boardwalk in Waikiki and there were two guys that suddenly walked up to us and before we knew it we were holding several of these beauties!  Every time I think about this vacation I can't stop smiling, we can't wait to go back! 

Our vacation was coming to an end and having the ability to go sailing was the perfect cap to a perfect week.  It really did feel like we were able to do everything we wanted to, Many thanks again to Ryan and Courtney for making our vacation such a blast! 

I love this guy! 



Family Fun!

Yet another fun weekend!  Even though the weather wasn't the warmest we were still able to get together with family and end the weekend with a BBQ at the Dwyers!  

One of my favorite people, EVER! 

 Saturday night Meghan, Tony, and Oakley came over, we spent the evening playing 99 and sharing many good laughs! 

I can't believe just how fast Oakley is growing up!  It has been so fun watching her grow and learn new things! 

Austin and Claire coloring at Goodwood as we wait for our dinner.  She is such a lucky little girl to have such an amazing Father that would do anything for her!  

The moments we live for!

What a fun weekend we all had!  To start the weekend off right Austin, Claire, and I made our weekly stop at Dairy Queen to get a delightful treat after dinner!  Although it was rainy most of the weekend, we still were able to enjoy it with much time spent with family, a little shopping, and some spring cleaning.  However, our weeknd wouldn't have been complete without family dinner with Meghan, Tony, Marley and Oakley! 

Our Friday night wouldn't be complete without our weekly stop for blizzards and dipped ice cream cones!  Watch out Dad, she will be a heart breaker! 

Best Friends Forever! 

Marley and Claire had a great time playing dress up as Austin and I shopped for spring clothes for Claire!  I can't believe how fast she is growing, before we know it she will be all grown up! 

Ahhh, the life of a four year old!  No matter where we go she always has the time of her life!

I just love this one of Marley!  Strike a pose girlfriend! 



Easter Weekend!

Not only were we blessed to have such a beautiful Easter weekend!  We were able to spend the entire weekend with family!  Saturday Austin, Claire and I spent the day with my family complete with an Easter egg hunt, great lunch and wonderful company!  Saturday evening we got together with friends and family to celebrate my 28th birthday, what a fun filled night that was!  Easter Sunday completed our weekend of fun, with Hawaiian horseshoes and a amazing BBQ at Austins parents house! 

Considering we just got back from Hawaii it was only appropriate that we get a tropical theme birthday cake! 

Here's to hoping that my birthday wish comes true and soon! 

This birthday was by far the best I have ever had!  I feel so lucky to have such wonderful friends and family! 

Kent and Kameron were on fire!  They are currently undefeated, now the rest of us will have to practice up and end their victorious streak, SOON! 

What an amazing holiday weekend, fun was had by all and we look forward to the next family gathering! 

Summer is almost here!

With the 70 degree weather we had this weekend it gave us the opportunity to get outside and start some much needed yard work, play in the sun, and work on our first ever garden!  Claire just loved being able to play in the water on the trampoline while Austin and I groomed the yard and watered the garden!

Although you can't see anything, there are multiple sprouts!  We are hoping for a lot of fresh vegetables this summer!  We planted sweet peas, broccoli, and carrots so far!
