Next weekend can not come soon enough for KerMatt! With my recent allergy inflammations (yep, it's official, I'm allergic to Utah!) and Matt's countless hours spent doing homework and grading papers, we are just dying to get out of here and enjoy some sunshine, relaxation and plentiful food that we don't have to make. Yep, that's right...our cruise! Hopefully this week will go fast as we prepare to leave.
Not much else new here...although I didn't mention in my last post that I recently spent a weekend up in Spokane with Brad and Sharee. We had a blast! and I loved spending time with their new little daughter, Finley. She is seriously the happiest child I have ever met and has such an infectious little personality. I loved playing with her and hanging out with Brad and Sharee. We ate great food - they introduced me to Greek yogurt and the Power 12 foods, and even spent hours making Toasted Marshmallow cupcakes. We searched all over Spokane for the tool that inserts yummy liquids in the middle of cupcakes, only to find it at Jo-Ann's Fabric (it is called a Bismarck tip, by the way).
We went on our usual shopping trip to help me talk Sharee into buying some new crazy stuff while also finding me a little NorthWest flare :) And of course, ended up watching our usual scary and cheesy movies.
We finished the trip with a quick photo shoot with Finley since we hadn't taken any photos of her and I together. Being the city girl that I am, I wanted to take photos by a big blue barn that I discovered by their house when we were out walking. The photo shoot was quick because it was so FREEZING COLD outside. but what an adventure it was.
This trip was just another great reminder of the wonderful friends I have in my life - something I tend to overlook when I get caught up in my day-to-day life.
And now Matt and I look forward to having some good, quality time together away from our daily distractions.
Love you all!
