Boise Adventure

This past weekend, Jar & I made the trek to Boise, ID with some of our pals to see our pal Stephanie. She just purchased a house and needed some help with some projects and she was also going through the Boise Temple. We were thrilled that she invited us to be there with her to share in the experience.

We drove up Friday night with Chrissy & Thayne and the rest of the gang game Saturday morning. The Rock fam was there Friday night as well. Saturday we painted and tried to help as much as possible with house stuff and that afternoon we went to the temple. We'd never been to the Boise Temple but it was beautiful, as they all are, and it was cool to experience another temple. After the temple, we went to dinner at a Thai place and it was scrumptious! While waiting for our food, we saw a fellow diner eating out of this weird bowl thing...so we asked the waitress what it was and it was a coconut. We decided to share one at our table...and good thing, because even with six of us we didn't finish. Lets just say the coconut juice had an interesting flavor and the "meat" or inside of the shell was like a funny slime. After dinner, we played a few hours of Knertz at the Rock parentals hotel and just laughed and laughed!

Sunday, Jar & I went to visit my Aunt Monica who also lives in Boise. It was fun to just chat with her for a while before we headed to church. After church, we chilled at Steph's, ate, and chatted all day long about everything under the sun! Early Monday morning, we arose, hit up Lowe's for a housewarming gift for Steph, and then hit the road home. All in all, it was a fantastic trip and we are glad we were able to be there with our good pal Steph! We are so proud of you! Way to go Steph- you are a real big-kid now!!! We love you!

And we look forward to trekking it to Boise again!
