Sunshine and Summer Time

It's been three months since Paul and I were married, and it's been a great summer!

We went on several drives to explore this beautiful corner of the world.
This is the Henry Store in Henry, Idaho.

  It's not summer without a roasting hot dogs and marshmallows, 
but since we don't have a fire pit we had to improvise.

One Sunday the power was out for over 8 hours, so Paul and I played Scrabble. This is the first (and probably the last) game of Scrabble I will ever win.

We watched Monster's U at the Idah-ha Dive-In Theater.
 
Paul does not understand the appeal of the drive-in.  It's like sitting next to a bunch of annoying kids in a regular theater...except mosquitoes can bite you.  Also, Paul thought it was a Drive-Thru theater, and was hoping to get a burger and fries.  Instead he got stale popcorn and expired Swedish Fish. Tara, on the other hand, loved it!

  We went to Lava Hot Springs a couple of times with some great friends.  We floated the Portneuf River, played some intense water basketball, and ate some delicious Thia food.

On this particular trip, I decided I was finally going to overcome my fear of jumping from high places.
 
 I did the walk of shame instead. 

But it did make jumping off of the high dive much easier.
