going, going, going

Things at our place are just never going to slow down! We kept with tradition this last week and went on another vacation for the weekend. I'll tell you all about it but first I have to back up to Wednesday of last week. We went and saw Dark Knight. I thought Brad might die because we had to wait 5 whole days from opening to go see it. He has been SO excited for it to come out. So we went on Wednesday with his best friend Ryan and some of Ryan's buddies. It was really good. Brad will probably buy it the day it comes out on DVD. Thursday was a holiday so both Brad and I got to stay home all day and just do nothing. We don't have air conditioning so it got really hot during the day so we decided to go on some adventures. We went to Smiths to try to turn in our big change jar so we didn't have to lug it around when we move. Turns out coinstar charges you 8 percent to exchange coins. LAME. So we just took it home and counted it ourselves and we will probably go get ice cream with it or something. (We are sorry if you are behind us in line but we are using all change.) Eventually we ended up hanging out at the mall. We got Brad some new pants and a new video game. Friday we took of for the booming metropolis of Burley, Idaho. We went with Brads uncle David and his wife Jen and their 3 kids. We stayed at Jen's parents house. They were very kind people and they were so fun to stay with. Brad went and saw the Blue Angels preform with David and he loved it. I hung out with Jen and her mom and the 2 younger boys. We went out to lunch and we went and to the Twin Falls temple open house. It was beautiful. We then went to Shoshone falls. They were beautiful too! The falls actually are painted on the walls in the temple. It was a good day. We got home last night and are getting back in the swing of things today. We don't actually have plans for this weekend so we might stay in Logan! We are hoping to hear from the apartment complex this week so we might end up going down to sign contracts if that goes well. We'll see.
