Idaho Falls

Jared was in one of his friend's wedding on July 28th.  It was originally planned that Jared would go alone since he was in the wedding and I knew he wouldn't be able to hang with me much, but last minute he bought me a ticket and convinced me to go.  I also hadn't originally wanted to go because I hate to fly and plus the plane tickets there were outrageous.  It worked out that I went and my mom was able to watch the kids.  I really hate to leave the kids, but I'm quickly learning that the few days away has proven to do great things for Jared and I.  We definitely need that time alone.  My birthday happened to be the 27th so when we headed out on the 26th, Jared told me he was taking me to Jackson Hole.  I had never heard of it, but I'm sure glad I got to experience it. 

We got there super late on the 26th to Idaho Falls.  I think like 1 am.  After we chatted up a little with the wedding party we went to sleep because we knew we needed to get moving in the morning because Jared had to be back by 5 for the rehearsal dinner.  Garrett and Lexi Lucero were also there for the wedding because Garrett was in the wedding party as well and they came along to Jackson Hole with us, along with their baby Jillian.  I'm so glad they came, It was a great birthday I will never forget.  That night we had the rehearsal dinner and just hung with everyone, it was a lot of fun.  Everyone was super sweet wishing my a happy birthday the whole weekend.  Saturday we just hung out all day at our cabin.  I watched all the crazy boys be boys and then it was time to get ready for the wedding.  It was a super cute wedding out in the open field.  Jared was cracking me up, he was having a little too much fun and he looked super handsome.  We kept glancing over at each other as the lady was saying the vows.  It rekindled a little something in us and reminded us of our wedding day.  The rest of the night we just partied with everyone, had some great food, and some delicious cake.  I may or may not have had 2 or 3 slices.  LOL.  We went to bed super late and had to get up at 7am to get to the airport by 9.  We missed our babies.  We were so excited to see them and my mom had put on a delicious roast, so we had a home made dinner when we got home.  I'm super glad I went and I had a great birthday.  Jared even got me a beautiful Ruby necklace, which is my birth stone.  I haven't taken it off since.  I absolutely loved it, he made my birthday very special.  Here's to the last year in my 20's.  So surreal.  I can't even believe it.
