Ye Old Faithful

Whelp. We had a fun weekend road trippin' it up to Idaho. 

I have never before in my life been to Yellowstone, which is strange because for about two years I lived only an hour away from it. So for part of the weekend we had to make our way up there so I could have the experience. Boy, it was lovely. I even had the opportunity to eat an Old Faithful candy bar as I was witnessing the real life Old Faithful shoot out water 100 feet into the air. A special moment, indeed.

Sometimes it is nice to escape from the busy, hectic life that is Utah County. I swear time slows down in Idaho. Perhaps someday we shall live in a small town such as the one my husband is from. I would like that.

I start horseback riding lessons tomorrow which I am uber excited about. I mean I know how to 'ride' a horse, and I have a lot of experience with trail riding but I have never been taught any formalities, so that'll be fun. Plus since Angie, the horse I rode got put down I feel like I've had a void that needs filling, so hopefully this satisfies me!

Don't try to order any type of mint flavored drinks from the Slurp. Disgusting. I was attempting to order something that resembled a mint julep, which quite possibly is my all time favorite drink, bar Diet DP of course, and well, it didn't turn out as planned and I wasted like two whole dollars. When you are poor two dollars is a lot of money. Money I will never get back. Anyway I'm not gonna even share the drink recipe with you because no one should ever try to replicate it. 

I should also announce that I will be coloring my hair next Tuesday. Hair dye has never before touched my precious locks and so this is kind of a big move for me. I'm thinking some blonde highlights and probs a trim. My ends are in desperate need of TLC. I love my strawberry blonde hair, but I'm ready for a change. :)
