busy busy busy

holy moly, this has been a crazy busy summer. i think kendrick and i have been home three weekends in the past two months, not even joking. however, all craziness aside, this has been the most fun and exciting summer we've had together, and we want to remember all of it... so i'm going to try to get around to blogging about all that we have done so far.

oh, and best part? our biggest trip for the summer hasn't even happened yet- we leave for hawaii in eleven days (!!!!) yep, we saved the best for last. ;)

a few of the things we've done this summer (that aren't covered in a post of their own, of course):

- ran our first 5k.

okay, let's read "ran" very loosely... infact, let's replace it with jogging/walking/crawling. jade helped in organizing the "run for the refugees" up in provo, and we thought it would be a great chance to support her and the cause. while the race was free, there was a food truck roundup that took place immediately after, and all proceeds went towards the refugees... so we paid our support through some buffalo fries and cupbop. ;)

- bees games!

i think so far, we have been to three bees games this summer, which we are both totally fine with. get a nice summer night, nachos and an icecream cone the size of my head, and some opportune people-watching, and you know i'm in. 

(one of the times was with kendrick's entire extended family. so fun!)

- attended a fun luau for kendrick's cousin

kendrick has a cousin who plays in the nfl, and we were lucky enough to get some tickets to attend the haloti ngata foundation event/dinner. the night was filled with pro athletes, delicious food, and a legit hawaiian luau.

- went to my company party/luau at the aquarium

healthequity seriously throws the best company parties! eternally grateful to work for such an amazing place.

- attended kendrick's family reunion at the cabin

for the first time in years, almost all of kendrick's family (on the adams side) were in one place at one time! we enjoyed a beautiful evening at the family cabin in oakley, eating delicious food, going on gorgeous walks, and meeting new people (for me, not kendrick).

- decorated and re-decorated our place

i've gone a little crazy this summer, and have rearranged, reorganized, and redecorated our place multiple times. for the first time in a while.. i'm so happy with how it is... for now.  ;)

our cute little patio space

 new coffee table... definitely my favorite piece of furniture that we own!

our new leather tufted armchair that kendrick loves, which is really really rare.

my current project is currently the bedroom... there are so many things i want to do to it, that i don't even know where to get started!

- helped harmony and jeff move

jeff got accepted to dental school in indiana literally last minute, which meant the family had to scramble to help them pack and soak in every last minute with them. i took off work a couple of days before they left to spend some time with harmony and the boys.

it was a super, super hot day.. so obviously a kiddi pool was required.

- "ice" date night

kendrick planned and surprised me with a super cute "ice" themed date night. first, to introduce the theme, he played "ice ice baby" in the car (haha), and then we went ice skating. afterwards, we got some shaved ice. it was the perfect night with my favorite person in the entire world.

oh, i love him.

- went to keys on main
keys on main is this piano bar downtown. basically, people pay these crazy talented pianist/singers to play any song they can think of... while getting crazy drunk. it's pretty entertaining when you're the only sober ones there! it was a fun night celebrating a friends birthday while enjoying some cokes. we were sure to leave by ten o'clock before things got a little too crazy ;)

 

well, that's all for now!
