Bread makin! (not to be mistaken with "baby makin")

On Sunday I got a bread machine that has been passed down from my mom to my sister-in-law and now to ME! :) I'm definitely not the best person in the kitchen so I was a little nervous to get the bread machine. I was really scared that I would just put it in the cupboard and never use it so I was DETERMINED to make at least one loaf! :) 

I had a very blonde moment when I first got the bread machine....I never realized that the bread actually baked in the machine! I always thought it was just a fancy mixer. :) Hahaha. Thank goodness I figured it out BEFORE I made the first loaf. 

So anyways...back to the break makin! I took some pictures to document the process...

All the ingredients out all ready to be put into the break MACHINE!!!

 This is my "oh my goodness I'm about to make bread, ahhhhh!!!" face.

Bread. In the bread machine. Real life people. 

My first loaf of homemade bread made by ME!!

Delicious homemade bread..YUMMY!!! :) 

So I made my first loaf of homemade bread. :) It wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be so I'm not as nervous to make the next loaf (tomorrow!) I am so excited to have this bread machine! I can't wait to try different recipes. Thank you Mama for passing the break machine to Melissa and thank you Melissa for now passing it down to me! 


Until next time...

Fall time in the Burg

Our church building is right below the Rexburg Temple. A few weeks ago when we got out of church I looked up at the temple and saw all the gorgeous fall colors on the trees and bushes surrounding the temple. I told Kevin we HAD to go up and take pictures. We went home, changed and headed back up to the temple. We walked all around and I couldn't stop snapping picture after picture of the fall leaves! I decided that fall is my favorite season in Rexburg. It is just SO pretty. Our nice little Sunday stroll definitely helped remind of how blessed we all are to be on this amazing earth that was created for us!  Kevin pointed out this strange plant and was like, "Don't you want a picture of this?" Haha. So naturally I had to snap a quick picture. I love the temple! I am so grateful we live to close to it. Such a blessing!  I'm grateful for days and moments like this where I'm reminded how ble...

Fat Biking

Kevin didn't have class yesterday since it was a holiday and no one else on the maintenance crew was going to work so Kevin decided to take the day off as well. I decided to close my office for the day so we could spend some time together. (best decision EVER!) We had a REALLY fun active day. In the morning Kevin played basketball while I walked around the I-center track with my friend Janae. We were there for about an hour and a half so we both got some pretty good exercise. We lounged around for a couple hours after that and then around 2:30 we headed to go fat biking with a couple we've become really good friends with in our ward. I had seen the fat bikes at the ORC before but never thought I would ride one. They look like regular bikes except they have ginormous tires instead of little tires. The bikes are used to ride in the snow, sand, and anywhere else you want to but they make riding in snow a lot easier (and more fun). Here is a picture while we were waiting at...

Time for something new

The past few weeks have been interesting. I've been worrying more and felt overwhelmed about Kevin's schooling, finding jobs, being a burden to family, trying to decide where we really need to be right now, everything just felt like it was closing in on me. Kevin applied to a job at Best Buy and made it through the first and second interviews. We made the decision that if he didn't get the job we would move back to Laramie. Friday, December 16th, as we were driving an Elder down to Des Moines, we found out that Kevin did not get the job. In a moment that could have very well been so sad, discouraging and stressful all I felt was peace. My heart was so sad thinking about leaving Mason City but my shoulders and body felt like a weight had been lifted from them. I knew we needed to go to Laramie. So, we're moving to Laramie after Christmas! I've cried at least twice a day since Friday (I'm just a constant bawl baby these days!) My heart and mind are on a cons...
