Fourth of July

For the 4th of July we had some of the Malta boys come down for the weekend. With the Malta crew and everyone from Idaho Falls we had a great time! There was lots of eating, games, laughs, and of course drinks! We camped out the whole 4th of July day by the Snake River and watched a fabulous fireworks show that night! Thanks for the great weekend everyone!

Oh man..The Newly Wed/Been Together for a While game show hosts!

Brian put on a Newly Wed game for all of the couples. It provided many laughs and only a few tifts!

Physical Challenge #1: Boys must find their wife/girlfriends foot while blindfolded in one minute!

Ty and Kels...what what!

Physical Challenge #2: The boys shoes are thrown about and the girls have the yell (at the top of their lungs mind you) all at the same time to direct their blindfolded husband/boyfriends to their shoes.

Everyone together after the fun game!

Kels and I pause for a pic!

The Pelto's Visit Idaho Falls!

At the end of June my mom and sister-in-law Rachel came to visit Idaho Falls. It was soooo much fun and I was so happy that they could make the trip down. We started the weekend with some shopping at the best fabric store in Idaho Falls and the Mini Bazaar. We went to Vino Rosso and made a trip to Jackson Hole for the day. In Jackson we went hiking and ate at a fun little pizza shop. It was all a blast! My mom, Rachel, and I ready for a fun weekend!

Our hike around Jenny Lake in Jackson had so many beautiful views!

This was a Hidden Falls.

We made it to the top!

All done and ready to relax!

Hanging out in the Jackson town square.

Our motto!

Yes...that is a pig watering can!

Lunch at Great Harvest is always so yummy!

Our 2 Year Wedding Anniversary

On June 23rd we celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary! We went out to The Sandpiper for dinner, had funfetti cake for dessert, and then went to see the movie, The Proposal. It was a very fun date night. We are so blessed in our marriage! Jake and I before heading to The Sandpiper.

At The Sandpiper Jake had catfish with a Hawaiian salsa and I had a raspberry chicken salad.


Time for our favorite...funfetti cake!

Reliving cutting the cake at our wedding!

I made Jake a scrapbook that I will add to each year and Jake got me a new camera!!!

On the way home from the movie! What a fun night!

Taste of Idaho

On June 18th Kelsey, Brian, Jake, and I went down to the Snake River Landing for the Taste of Idaho. There were 15 different food booths set up with local restaurants serving tastings from their kitchens. It was a gorgeous night with lots of good food! At the end Jake was part of the judging panel for the barbeque contest. He has a great time taste testing the best food from local cooks!

All of us on the main street of food booths!

Eat up!

Oh how cute!

A quick pic of the event.
