Jed and I went out on our first four-wheeling (two for Jed) adventure. We had a great time! Southeast of Twin Falls are a number of great ATV trails - which we went crazy on! I'm a bit of a wimp, but we made it around a pretty good-sized loop. There were some pretty beautiful views from up there. We have a number of maps for trails in the area, so come on over to visit and we'll take you out.

If you didn't already see them, here they are: Jed's '72 Honda 125 and my Honda Recon. What do you think!?

Pounding the Pavement

It's hard looking for a job. Jed and I have been in Twin Falls for about three weeks now and it's time I get a job. I've been out taking resumes around to all of the dentists in town. I just always feel so vulnerable when putting myself out there like that, you know? Hopefully a great opportunity will come up soon at a fun, easy-going office. I look forward to getting to work!

Fun Purse

Check out this fun purse that I made in Boise with Dani the other day! We spent the afternoon making these super-cute felted wool purses. (As you can see, I was channeling Mary Engelbriet.) Now all I can think about are the many cute little projects that I could do with my new-found skill!

Idaho's Capital

Jed and I have been traveling back and forth to Boise for some training and orientation for his new job at St. Luke's. It's been a lot of fun for me to hang out with Dani (not so much fun for Jed - job shadowing and such.) This last week we went and checked out the Idaho state capital building. (After a great dinner at Spaghetti Factory!)

You bought a WHAT?!

We bought a truck. A little crazy, I know. Jed's been looking for a while for something. We finally found it and got it today. It's a 97 Ford F-250 XLT. It has pretty low miles and runs really well. Now, hopefully we can do some recreational activities - four-wheeling, biking, etc. It should be great!

New Diggs

So, it's been a little over two weeks since we moved to Twin Falls, ID. Here's a picture of the house that we're renting for the time being. So far, it's been pretty good. (It makes wierd sounds at night!) The kitchen is tiny, but it has a lot of natural light (our last rental felt like a cave) and a pretty nice established yard. There is apparently a peach tree and a cherry tree in the back yard. It's always fun moving to a new place a figuring out what all you need and spending $$ on things to get all situated. So far, it's been pretty good. We'll see how the next 5 1/2 months goes. Wish us luck!

The Big Oak

So, when Jed and I went to Thomasville, we visited "the big oak." It is amazing! (I had forgotten that I had pictures of it until I was looking for the pics of Hunter's baptism.) Words cannot describe how huge this thing is. Hopefully I got some perspective on it for you. (The sign gives some info on the tree.) Check it out!
