Braustin Nation

I'm taking lots of pictures! And also making a home video that will be soon to come! So far, we have been really busy with Hillary's (Austin's sister) wedding. I had the opportunity to throw a bridal shower for her :) We also celebrated Austin's birthday on the 23rd by a boat ride, waterskiing, and tubing. Austin was super excited because before his 30lb weight loss, he couldn't get up on the skis. He totally did and I have great footage when I put up the film! Here's all our photos from the past week - enjoy!

We're married and have documentation of it! One for each year ;)

This past weekend, we got to spend time with my lovely parents! Lance (my step-dad) and my mom came out to Rexburg to party po-dunk style with us haha! First we took them to R-Mountain which is actually a crater volcano :) Maybe you recognize it from the 4th of July adventures of Braustin? We had finals (so Austin and I look like train wrecks only getting 6 hours of sleep in the last three days...  haha!) Lance and mom were doing wonderful though, and were more energetic than us for sure!  Then we made some taffy, but what we didn't know was our candy thermometer we bought was broken in the first place. So it never rose past 150ºF despite it looking like it burned. Yeah. It ended up looking like an organ. And it also ate our black plastic spoon because it rose so high in temperature. It was molten lava! Belonged on R-Mountain that's for sure! We had Austin run back to the grocery store who sold us the defective thermometer, and i

Finals are upon us! Wish us luck!  So a little about life lately... or you can skip to the awesome food at the bottom lol. Well, we might need that luck especially cause I kicked a stool on accident in the print lab and broke two toes all crazy like. Then proceeded in my 12 hour no-break printing frenzy standing on them dang toes.... and sick.....lol! That's what I get for not wearing my brace. Good thing we are done with Insanity! That's right, you heard us! Done with Insanity, the 9 week program :D We both are going to take our pictures soon and post them! We are doing hip hop abs for the next two weeks as finals are happening (and it's less intense on my toes) then starting Insanity all over. Yes, we are insane thank you ;) We actually were kind of freaking out because this fall, we apply to law and nursing school! We finish in April, but will hear most likely in the winter where we will head out to.  I might wait to apply until Austin chooses a scho

Our friends, Rachel and Eric, invited us to celebrate the 4th of July festivities with them! We were so excited :D They taught us how to make this awesome taffy Rachel got off of Pinterest. We had too much fun doing that... Then we brought a picnic for them (chicken gyro that we BBQ'd) on this awesome hoagie bread Austin made. Can you tell which one is mine? One of these is not like the other one! Baha.  We then took a hike up to "R Mountain" to watch the firework shows down in Idaho Falls. When the moon came up, we totally thought it was a fire spreading in the mountain and we were all going to die haha! I have to tell you, watching five firework shows all at once on top of an old crater volcano is something else! And then to share it with good company, definitely a 4th well spent :)
