The weekend

Yumm...Last weekend we went to Mike and Abby's. While the guys went golfing Abby and I made Carne Asadas with authentic mexican beans and rice. They were so good. I must say it was quite interesting in the kitchen with Abby and I, you see we are both very indecisive people so it took longer then it probably had to. It went a little like this. Abby: How should we prepare the meat Amanda? Amanda: I don't know... what do you think? Abby: It doesn't really matter to me, however you want... You get the point. It was so nice to sit in their back yard which is making us anxious to get our own house. But all in all we had a blast and are really enjoying getting to know them.

I cut my hair!!! Yea it felt really good, even though summer is almost over ( I know I shouldn't of said it) I should have done it sooner. I realize it doesn't look that short but I cut over 6 inches off so it was much needed.


This last weekend Chris took me on a drive down to Clear Lake. Its very pretty down there in the canyon with all the orchards and the snake river. Above is a picture of a pear tree, I'm excited to take our parents down there so we can do some fruit picking. We ran into Chris' boss down there which was really random because our vehicles met down at a fish hatchery and nobody was there because it was after hours how crazy is that, anyway they suggested that we go to the visitor center and check out the 8ft sturgen.

I should have thrown in a paper dollar so you could get the jist of how big it really was because the way the picture looks your probably thinking I'm telling a "fish story"

Here is a pic of Chris and I standing in front of one of the many springs in this canyon. Even though it was hot out the air felt really cold from the spring. It is amazing how much water seemingly comes out of nowhere. I'm surprised the canyon wall doesn't cave in.

Love,

Chris and Amanda
