School Days

Today was the first day of school for the girls. Zoe entered full day kindergarten and Bella entered second grade. They both were super excited, but Zoe was especially stoked. She was ready for school. They go to school downtown Boise and we are super pleased with it. The school is small and the clas size is no more than 25 students per class, but they never really reach that number. We love it. Anyways, here are a few pictures from their first day.

Western Idaho Fair and Papa's Birthday dinner

Yesterday was the last day of the fair, so we packed up all the ladies and headed in for some carnie lovin' fun. We rode rides, went through the petting zoo, ate greasy fair food and had an all around good time. It was hot, so bout three hours was plenty of time to get done what we needed. After that we headed to nana and papa's house. Papa's birthday is on Wednesday and I have to work, so I made him dinner last night. It was good times. Happy Birthday Papa!!!

Fall Craft Ideas

It's that time again...my ABSOLUTE favorite time of the year, Fall. Well OK, it's not quite fall yet, but it's getting close....close enough to start doing crafts. I love doing Fall/Halloween crafts and Christmas crafts, but I always seem to enjoy the fall ones just a little bit more. Every year I do a post with fall crafts, so staying true to tradition, here's this years Bucket List of Fall crafts!!

MOVING

We are moving....and we couldn't be more excited. First of all, we both hate the house we have now. The neighbors suck, the HOA is a joke, and the house has a bunch of weird stuff going wrong with it. The sprinklers, our shower, our toilet, the guest bathroom toilet, the door coming off the hinges...all sorts of weird stuff. The worst part is the HOA, obviously this lady needs a job or something because all she does is harass people. The mailbox is the wrong color, you parked too close to the mail box, your grass is too long, your grass is too short, and the icing on the cake- there was dirt on our sidewalk....while we were out of town after a storm. Yea. Get a life lady. Anyways, Louis was on the ball and found the perfect little patio house right off Broadway, like 2 minutes walking distance to my work. Super fantastic. Has a fenced yard, super close to downtown and my parents. I dont think we will ever move back out to the suburbs.....we loved it when we lived in the City Side Lofts and thought we could make it work out in Meridian again and he hated it and I wasn't so fond myself. So, in September we get to pack up all our junk and go for it. As much as I hate moving, we are ready for this move- hopefully the last one for a very long time...like until we buy a house, which wont be for at least another couple years. Any who...here's a few pictures from the rental company's site.

 

Nothing fancy, but cute, and perfect location. Like I  already said, we are super stoked!!
