New Traditions

Remember how I said we wanted to keep having date nights?


We've done good!



I'm sure you've noticed we had some favourites in Rexburg. Moving to a new place can throw you off, but still be adventurous. I really like Asian food. But like... serious Chinese and Vietnamese and Thai food. We found a Hong Kong Buffet which scared us at first, but it was decent. We decided to explore further, and that was a mistake haha. 

Straight up dog food. Not even an exaggeration. I am not sure WHAT meat we ate.

That adventure scared us off for a bit, but then we found an oasis. 
New Mandarin!!

It's the quirkiest place as it resides in an old western restaurant space. SO good. Best food I've had outside the city. So we got to enjoy eating there for our date :)




See what I mean about the Western and Eastern coming together? 
Gosh do I wish I had these photos for my BFA. 

We are both still swimming in school and work, and still enjoying the snow! We have tons of snow. One morning we woke up to proof that Zeus exists.....


Icicle Lighting Bolt of DOOM.

I also got to have some fun with that cake decorating set my mom gave me for my birthday!
I wish I could cut it open, but it's for someone. It's a marbled red-velvet cake, and the picture does not do this thing justice. It's huge haha!

We do have a little fun here in Wyoming between all the craziness ;)


Xoxo,

To Be Honest.

I've been thinking a lot, and a lot has been going on.  Lorde radio on Pandora is a good way to zone out. So is sewing, and doing all those other mindless activities I love, and that keep me happy. I haven't written on this blog because to be honest, it's been difficult lately. To get the sob story quick and out of the way, I've been in a self-pity mode, and super down on myself. I had a very difficult time at BYU because of a crappy life occurrence that made the decision to leave the best decision of my life. It was hard to get my BFA between the BYU's when I transferred, and I couldn't work on a second diploma I was seeking. I ended up with the most amazing BFA situation though, and that has been a blessing. (And the most awesome thing happened too, obviously. --marriage! I would never ever change that!) The last year into my BFA I found out definitive stuff about my dystonia, including no children. And the nursing program chase has not be

Grateful.

Austin has been the best support. I definitely married out of my league.  He's been very proactive in finding lots of healthy things for my recommended diet (by the neurological disorder peeps, and an intolerance.) because my hemidystonia has had less spasms and cramps. As of lately, brown rice bread!  Seriously, it's great even if you don't need wheat-free. It's a nice change of pace! It's sweet and light. .:Recipe Here:. We grind our own brown rice to save money. Winco here in Idaho has  the best deal for bulk brown rice :)  Here's a crazy picture of my hand, this was actually the first spasm/cramp I've had in a bit. (Haha, least my nails are painted ;) ) This is actually why (for those of you who've asked) Intaglio will not be my last degree. I was informed that I've got a good chance of this happening to my right side too.  Art might get interesting! But I plan to keep doing it as a career too, no matter what!

Moonrise Bunnies

Thank you for the chocolate bunnies Carmen Family!! we may or may have not remembered it was easter? Such a Surprise! In sad news, our favorite video store is going out of business. We loved getting recommendations from the people who worked there. Austin and I had no idea our favorite date spot was going out and went to go get a movie.... and we ended up with this sweet stack!! (They sold them waaay discounted. We got all of these for the price of two new DVDs!)  It was funny because when we walked in and realized what was going on, we freaked out because we wanted our favorite movies! Everything Illuminated and Moonrise Kingdom (among others but these were the first ones that came to mind) And Everything Illuminated was gone! Austin freaked because he couldn't remember what Moonrise Kingdom was called. He said... EDWARD NORTON. WHICH ONE WAS THAT?? Of course I look at him like wtf are you talking about the Hulk or the Painted Veil or something? Fig
