Inspiration to Write aka I love Becca

So the oh so lovely Miss Becca Miller made a blog and it inspired me to start updating mine again : ) Even though she is about the only one to read it. So here I am suck in Idaho and she is only 67.8 miles away from the love of my life aka Bryan, who is currently on his mission in Denver (Yes Becca I map quested the distance haha) One day I may just send her on an adventure to stalk him... or send myself on an adventure to stalk him and maybe visit her. Haha I kid I kid. I do really miss my Becca boo. We must be roomates again this fall semester : )
So anyway this is a photo of Bry at the MTC with all his roomies. His companion is the one in the blue behind him. His name is Elder Green and is from non other than Rexburg Idaho. I guess they aren't companions anymore since Bryan flew out to Denver last monday, but Bry loved the time he had him for company.

Bryan has my heart just fyi ;)

So it has been close to two months since I saw Bryan last. Oh how I miss him. He is my best friend and my love. I tend to be spending most of my free time on Skype with him being silly, talking and playing checkers. My new favorite part of the day is when I get to cuddle up in my bed and read scriptures with Bry before I go to sleep. I get to see him Thanksgiving week and I CANNOT WAIT! He submitted his mission papers about 2ish weeks ago and I am so proud of him. I cannot wait to hear where he goes and I know that he will be an AMAZING missionary. I could not imagine anyone stronger (in all aspects) than he is, but I know that with a mission he will grow into someone even more incredible than he already is.

Tomato Gardening- August 10th, 2010

Tuesday I got up early to go to Bryan's house. We were supposed to do a early morning breakfast double date with one of his friends, but plans ended up falling through. We took a little nap and then got up and started working on the tomatoes in their back yard. I had fun clipping the plants back and picking the tomatoes with Bryan. After he took me to my doctors appointment and then later in the day we went to his doctors appointment. We headed back to his house after and ended up taking down some lights in their backyard for my roommate Crystal's wedding. I tried pushing Bryan into the pool, but he ended up just jumping into the pool with me. I was soaking wet and we ended up going home after. I put my clothes in a plastic bag....and I dont know what happened to them!

The Lake & KFC- August 9th, 2010

On Monday I went to the lake with Bryan's family and their family friends. I attempted to knee bored for the first time and failed miserably! Oh well maybe I'll do better another time around. The lake was really pretty and it was the perfect temperature outside. After we were done on the boat we headed back to the picnic area, and ate KFC for dinner. There was tons of meat bees and wasps trying to attack our food. Bryan's sister Tia got stung on the top of her mouth by one that had flown into her soda! Despite the bees it was a fun evening!

Checkers for Breakfast- August 8th, 2010

Yesterday morning Byran and I woke up got on Skype and ended up playing a game of checkers. He beat me about 5 times and I was determined to win. Finally the last game we played yesterday I won! I was soooo excited that I had to document my victory! I did not get to hang out with Bryan yesterday, but I did have a lot of fun talking with him and playing checkers. So here is my victory photo and Bryan's sad looser face!

Cupcakes & Worms- August 7, 2010

On the 7th I went over to Bryan's house and his mom had a cupcake cookbook out on the counter in the kitchen. I started to look through it and found tons of adorable cupcakes to make in it. After taking a little nap on their hammock in the back yard, Bryan and I decided we wanted to make cupcakes. We then remembered the little dirt cups with the pudding Oreos and gummy worms in them and started to debate if we wanted to make those instead. We decided we wanted to make both so we used pudding instead of frosting and put Oreos on top of that.
It was his niece Brenna's 3rd birthday so we made her and her sisters little versions of the cupcakes and brought them over to their house! The cupcakes turned out yummy as well as cute and the girls seemed to enjoy them.

Turtle Kisses- August 6, 2010

This is Gloopy. A little bobble head turtle I got in Mexico on a cruise when I was 8. Bryan and I always joke around and say Gloopy is our child due to a dream I had a while back. I was at Bryan's appartment in their hammock and I ended up falling asleep and talking to Bryan. In my dream Bryan kept giving birth to Mexican turtle babies through his belly button and would take them to Mexico. In my dream I was very frustrated because they were the children of his ex girlfriend.

So there is the background information, but there isn't much more to the picture. We were just goofin around being silly and I kept making him kiss Gloopy.
