Summer fun

Mitchels brothers came for a visit and we went up the canyon for sunday dinner. We all enjoyed each others company and Lydia had a blast playing with her uncles and getting to be outside.
She helped gather firewood and helped us eat hot dogs and marsh mellows. She also enjoyed bossing Ty around.

My mom also came for a visit. Lydia absolutely loved spending time with her and she would freak out anytime she thought grandma was leaving her. We went to the mall and the park with grandma and before she left we had dinner at the Center Street Grill, that's where Mitchel works. We sure enjoyed her visit and hope to see her again soon.

New Job

I finally found a job here in Cache Valley. I was starting to get discouraged, and couldn't believe it when they called to say I got the job. This job is literally a blessing!!! Right now I'm usually in the morning on food prep or fry prep, sometimes in the early afternoon on the fryer or shift lead (Barista). I also love doing the drive thru and front counter too, so I guess I just love doing it all.

This is a brand new business that just opened this summer in Logan, the guy behind the idea is about 25 yrs old and is pretty neat. I love the idea of this business and I just really hope that they go far. They have already been asked to franchise!

At my work you can get brownies, cookies, and waffles, As well as French fries, and Soda.
They have endless soda options!! You choose a soda, choose a syrup flavor or puree/ creamer, and then fresh mix ins!! My favorite drink is the Fizzy Float, it's like a root beer float without the ice cream.
They also have many french fry options!! Pick a size of french fry, Choose plain fries or a seasoning, then pick from the many sauces they have. My favorite is Salt and Vinegar fries dipped in BBQ Fry sauce or the Zango Mango sauce. You can turn it into a meal and get Chili cheese fries, Canadian Poutine (gravy and cheese curds), or Bacon cheese fries.

Any ways I just wanted everyone to know that I am enjoying this job and things are working out really well with the babysitter/s. I was really worried to be leaving Lydia behind, I didn't want a job because I wanted to be a stay at home mommy. Now that I have a job though I've been feeling much better. Usually I just work in the mornings or afternoons when Mitchel is at school. Lydia is with the sitter normally for one hour at most three so I don't feel to bad about leaving her and any time possible she is with Mitch and I.

Ok rant complete!

Trail mix

So here is a mix of little happenings in our life.

Lydia started going to Nursery and has been doing very good. She has only complained about us leaving once.

Lydia likes to dress up.....

There was an awesome thunderstorm, so we turned all the lights off and listened to the thunder and watched the lightning from the porch. after a while we took Lydia out to play in some puddles. She really enjoyed jumping off the couch into the pillows the most though, while listening to thunder....

We went up the canyon for family home evening and walked along a trail. Lydia loves being outside!!!

With help from my mom I got the bathroom set I really liked.....

Lydia got a yeast infection a while back and was being treated for that. Right around the time that that was going away she got boils from a neighbor friend who had one too. I felt so sad for the poor thing. She ended up with two. one on her bum and one on her hip. This type of boil is called MRSA and is very contagious, it's hard to treat because it's resistant to common antibiotics

Our area was doing a little safety thing and Lydia got to sit in a firetruck!!! she was scared of the fireman when he dressed up in all his gear.

Lydia is also a very good shopper...

So that's about it... The End.
