Eureka Springs

For Memorial day weekend we decided to explore Arkansas. So we got online and after a lot of research we decided to visit Eureka Springs.
Eureka Springs is a Victorian mountain village that was founded in the late 1800's. And it just happened to be only 30 miles away.
We spent mostly the entire day there and there was never a dull moment!Here are a few pictures of our trip.
Shopping in the historic loop Exploring one of the many springs in the area Christ of the Ozarks (biggest statue of Christ in North America... I think) A funny sign that we saw on our way home... what does that even mean?

Welcome to Arkansas

Anthony started his internship the last week in May and things are going really well. He works in the transportation building and is working on a project dealing with truck back loads (or something like that). He seems to be fitting in really well and is enjoying the Walmart scene.
Walmart hooked us up with an apartment, which really turned out to be a great deal!We live on a country club with a golf course so the view from our apartment is great.
Here are a few pictures of our new place.

More of our Vacation

Here are some more pictures of our vacation...
This is us at Hollywood Studios at Disney (Right) We went to the Indiana Jones show and Anthony was chosen to be one of the towns people... it is a whole lot more entertaining when you know someone on stage, haha! It was fun watching him.

Animal Kingdom is probably Anthony and I's favorite park... however Epcot is pretty cool too. I think its because Disney did such a good job with it. You really feel like you are walking through a jungle. Haha anyways, this is us at Animal Kingdom after the water ride...

Epcot. We decided to go to all the countries, Anthony had never done them before and honestly I couldn't remember them much either... It was pretty impressive. Disney always does such a good job.We also took some time and decided to go to the beach one day, thats one thing that we really miss while were out here in Idaho.Anthony wanted to dig a hole all the way to China... or wherever, but
then I convinced him that we should just bury him. I made him into a Merman, haha. We were also lucky enough to be there when Anthonys younger brother, Daniel, graduated from basic training. So we drove down to Macon and spent the day with him. His friend, Brett, also came with us.




We got back to Rexburg little over a week ago and miss Georgia all ready :( But were excited that we get to come home for Christmas!
Also one of my best friends growing up (yeah I have a lot of those) Rachel Fairclough got engaged last night and I am so happy for her and her fiance! Congratulations!

End of Semester

Done with school! ...At lease for awhile... haha! It was a really good semester for both of us. It's a lot easier to do homework and stuff when you already live with the one that you want to be with all the time. We have a 7 week break till school starts again the September. Anthony has his online accounting class that he will be busy with during the break. But I need some ideas! Anyone have any suggestions to keep me busy?

Good News

This past weekend Anthony and I went to Salt Lake to go to a wedding. It was for Logan Christensen, Anthony's good friend growing up. It was a beautiful day and they are so cute together!
We also went to a lunch to celebrate after wards at the Lion House in Salt Lake. Apparently they have famous rolls, they were delicious!
We also got to stay with Scott and Katie and Luke! It was great to see them, even though it was a short visit. Thank you guys!
On another note, one of my best friends from GA, Kelsey, is visiting this weekend! We have been friends ever since we can remember and I am excited to spend some time with her this week!
We also have a short week this week and a 4 day weekend (because of fourth of July). I am really looking forward to it. On Saturday Anthony and I are planning on going to Idaho Falls to celebrate Independence day. There is a HUGE fireworks show every year... seriously, I have never seen so many fireworks. And if anyone knows my family, thats saying a lot! Haha!
Life is good.

4 Day Weekend

This weekend was a four day weekend! We had Memorial day off and Tuesday the school had an "examination" day.... don't know what that means, but we got the day off of school so I'm not complaining.
It has been very relaxing just staying in Rexburg. Its actually kinda nice when everyone leaves for long weekends, it gets really quiet and it feels like you have the whole place to yourself.
Anyways, we decided to go camping for a day. Anthony's parents got us a tent and a double sleeping bag for our wedding and we were glad we could finally use it. Thank you!!
So here are a few pictures from our trip...

Anthony setting up the tentIt had rained right after we finished setting up the tent (Good timing!). We were sad, but luckily it only rained for an hour or two.
Our sweet fire that we cooked our foil dinners on.Well thats all for now. Just a short week left for school then its the weekend again!
