That's Interesting…

We went on a romantic getaway to Boise this weekend.
The start was…not good. We left 2.5 hours later than planned and I was so upset I spent most of that time in the temple avoiding lightning.
Friday was, however, fantastic. David and I had bfast in a quaint cafe before we went on a walk along the Boise river with Lisa and Abby (a golden retriever). We spent an hour throwing rocks into the river and Abby would fetched them. She was really in her element. We even got her to swim across the river by throwing rocks farther and farther all the way to the other shore. Was really fun.
Then Lisa and I went shopping while David went to see his Dad at the office. Frankly, he should have known better than leave me unsupervised…I bought my very own and very first set of dishes–a rite of passage for all domestic divas.
The day got even better…we all went golfing!!! It was a blast. Lisa and I had never been golfing and though David had been to a driving range he had never done 9 holes. Lisa and I first approached our golf clubs kinda like shovels because there was whole lotta grass flying everywhere…but not many balls. Next, we moved from gardening to minigolf. It was improvement but it did not earn us respect. Finally, we got some balls airborne…yes, yes, yes. I wont mention our sense of direction though. Anyway, Bill apparently has a double life in which he is a professional golfer and David can hit as far the eye can see. We also raced our golf carts and chased ducks.

In the evening David and Bill had manly bonding over dinner while Lisa and I went to a RS activity.
What a day!!!

On Saturday, Lisa, Janet (David’s aunt), and I went hiking around the foothills. It was glorious. Then David took us to the Boise Farmer’s Market and some more shopping. We caught the end of the BSU game over lunch. That night we had a Litster dinner at the house. Lisa is an amazing hostess and we had a great time being girly together.

We got back late Sunday. David and I really like Boise and talked quite a bit about possibly moving there. But Bill would first have to commit to only 2 phone calls a day. And that will never happen.

Well, it is Monday night, I had an awful day as my allergies raged out of control. Finally, at five I managed to pull myself together enough to go and get my meds.
My costume for Princess Peach is done though the wig itches like a bad rash.
Oh, I got Halloween “pumpkin” bread bowls and I will be making potato soup tomorrow. Very excited. I look forward to Macey’s starting to sell those bread bowls every fall.

Very tired. Rambling.
Gnight.
