ELY NEVADA

The last four days have been tons of fun. I made a new friend, Kinsey made a new friend, and we got to see Clint everyday. Tuesday was mine and Clint's 2 year anniversary. It's kinda crazy to think that we have been married that long. I woke up that morning thinking it was a bummer that I wasn't even going to see him that day because he was out of town working. I decided that to solve that problem,  I was going to drive 3 hours to Ely and surprise him. Then to make it even better, stay a couple days. The business rents a house for the guys working out there so it made it easy for us to stay there with them. I asked Jake's wife Chelsea if she wanted to go with me and she was excited to go. (Jake is working with Clint and I had never talked to Chelsea until Tuesday.) So we loaded all of our stuff and kiddos and started our little trip to Ely NV. The guys were pretty excited to see us and it was fun to be with them. Chelsea has a little boy Braden who is a year and a half old and he is so stinking cute! Kinsey and Braden enjoyed being around each other even with the age difference. Braden would feed her bananas and give her plates from the garbage that were covered in maple syrup from breakfast and SHE LOVED IT! And so did I. She was sticky from head to toe. Braden would even play Peek-a-Boo with Kinsey in the car and it would make them both happy. Chelsea and I  had a blast hanging out with each other while our husbands were at work. Hopefully we will be able to have fun together here at home too. We were both sad to leave but knew there were things at home that needed to be done. I think that if I had a choice and nothing else mattered, I would go to Ely every time with Clint and practically move into the house. It was an older house and there was alot of things I loved about it and things I didn't love like wood floors and no AC. To name a few of the good,  a laundry chute, built in dressers, and the best part, way more cupboard space than my own house. My camera is broken so sadly I have no pictures to share from our little adventure. But if anybody knows how to fix a lens that won't open and is having some problems, feel free to help me, or I may be purchasing a new camera before too long!

My Addictions

      Well, if you didn't already know I love to cook and then I love to eat what I cook. Clint works out of town alot and that means I get bored. Lately I have loved making recipes off of pinterest. The other day my sister in law Heidi and I made a yummy Pasta and then some Garlic Cheesy bread to go with it from recipes found off pinterest. I would recommend them both to anyone looking for new recipes to try. Here is the pasta, we found the best way to find it is off of the website: ourbestbites.com

 

And here is the bread picture and website to go to. I ate the leftovers of this for breakfast the next day. :)

It's called Hasselback Garlic and Cheesy Bread on: laurenslatest.com

Tonight I am planning on making some chicken I found on Pinterest that my sister Stacie and I made a couple weeks ago. It was so yummy that I feel the need to make it again for Clint to try. 

This one is called Chicken in Basil Cream Sauce from: the-girl-who-ate-everything.com

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD

I am going to try and blog everyday that I make something off Pinterest. That is my goal, so plan on seeing a blog from me quite a bit. If you don't, then I must be being lazy.
