Rexburg Weekend

It has taken me a full week to get around to writing this post, oops! Last Friday, Eric and I drove up to Rexburg, ID. to spend the weekend with friends and family. Friday when we got to Idaho Falls, Eric and I went to the mall, walked around a little, then dropped my ring off at Jensen's to get it all cleaned and dipped. YAY! It's like new again! Then Eric and I met up with our friends Tyler and Janae, their two kiddos, and our friend Tyrel for some yummy food at Red Robins. Eric and I have been on a little bit of a health trip lately so eating big juicy hamburgers after a week of salads was a little much and we both felt sick afterwards, but it was sooooo great in the moment! :) When dinner was over we finally headed in to Rexburg to our friends Angie and Jordan's NEW house. They just bought it a couple months ago and its in this cute little neighborhood out by the new high school in Rexburg. Such a great location. SO we were given the grand tour of their new home, chatted a bit, and then headed off to our third and final destination of the night where we were going to be staying for the weekend…Kyli and Dan's new apartment in Stonebrook. They also have done a great job of moving in and getting settled and I'm sure they love having a third bedroom now. The next morning Eric and I didn't really sleep in cause baby Rhett was sleeping in the room right next to ours….and well, we are childless for the moment so being waken by a baby is not a daily occurrence for us. Eric went golfing with Jordan and Tyler, and I stayed behind and got to play the "cool" aunt and feed Rhett.


Look at that Belly!!!!

I did go out and treat myself to Jamba, and yes paid the extra cents to get an energy shot to help keep me going the rest of the day. Eric's golf bag unfortunately decided to fall apart while he was golfing, which Eric insists is my fault because I'm the one who makes him leave it out on our porch. Sooo, happy Anniversary babe you get the new golf bag you bought yourself! hahahaha! The rest of saturday was spent going to porter park with Susan (she came in town), Dan, and Brookyln, eating at Gator Jacks with our friends Rachel, Jordan, and Angie, and shopping around, oh yeah and then we ate at a new frozen yogurt place there in town…really good.

Then that night Eric, Jordan, and I went to the grocery store picked up everything we would need for a bonfire, and then headed out to Beaver Dick Park where we roasted bratwurst and hotdogs, starbursts, and smores!!!

It was an awesome fire! Shout out to Jordan's dad who it all possible by proving the wood!

 Then Rachel showed up later with a huge group of friends and our little gathering turned into a big one, and it was so much FUN!!!!! Definitely took us all back to the old days…yeah its cool we can say that now. It was such a great night and we rolled into bed around 1a.m. oops…curfew breakers!!! Not gonna lie, that was a common occurrence when Eric and I were dating!!! YIKES! hahaha! Anyways…Sunday was a beautiful day and we attended the baby blessing of our friends Tyler and Janae's little girl. Little Emily Reagan Webb was blessed and it was so special for us to be there, and for Eric to stand in the circle. Afterwards there was an awesome cookout at their place we were able to go to it before we had to head back home to Utah.

Once again it was so hard to leave, because visiting Rexburg is like visiting home for us. Eric and I just have so many wonderful memories there. The Ricks Building, where we first met, the MC and all the country Dancing Nights, DQing every Wed, Rexburg Temple, where we first told said we loved each other….2 months after we started dating..maybe…yeah it was quick. Porter park, the place where Eric and I finally decided that we wanted to marry each other and then went ring shopping….and the list could go on and on! I feel so blessed to have gone to school in such a wonderful town, and make such great life long friends, and to have found love! Its going to be sad when we move down south not being able to go and visit. :(
