Chris & Jeff make a pit- stop!

One of Tyler's best friends from home and his Dad were driving from South Carolina?! ( right.. was I paying attention?) back to California & took a major detour to pit stop in Ontario for the night! :) First off, these guys have already driven across the entire US.. and went up to Spokane... then came all the way to Ontario, just to see us, and then headed off to complete their LONG drive! If that doesn't explain friendship I don't know what does!
Chris & Jeff got to see the town & of course the house, plus we were able to give back a little- we let them shower! They arrived & let us know they hadn't had a shower for 4 days! ( Sorry if I wasn't supposed to disclose that.. but you made us feel extra special.. like maybe we gave back something after such a long drive out of the way to us! We love you!)


We feel so blessed to have such amazing friends who fill our lives with laughs & loves! The ones who make time to spend your birthday with you, fly across the state, or take a MAJOR detour just to see you make Tyler & I feel so honored! :)

CNR

I have to post some pictures from the Caldwell Night Rodeo last weekend! It was a packed night full of drinking, GREAT friends & dancing! Can't wait till next year!
Smiles all around! :)


Marcus wanted to throw that beach ball sooooo bad....

& I learned how to DANCE!
Such a great weekend!

I feel loved!

I turned 23 this week, and usually when it comes to birthdays I feel older than I am actually turning! In turning 23, I feel happy, inspired, driven and most of all loved. On Wednesday Kailey, who I haven't seen in MONTHS, came into town from California! I got to spend a night full of laughs! We also got to enjoy my new birthday present... an AMAZING new camera! Tyler did a great job, and a LOT of research on the camera that he was going to get me! THANK YOU! :) Below is a picture of one of the first pictures we took and even tested out the self timer! SO AWESOME!




Then, on Friday HEATHER came to visit me! I couldn't have been more excited to have a week full of best friends! Who gets that! We enjoyed a weekend of P.F. Changs, Boise Saturday Market, CNR & some sun time! I can't thank the people in my life enough for making me feel so special and loved for my birthday! Thank you soooo much!
