4 years! Happy Anniversary to us :)

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO TROY AND ME!!! 

I can't believe it's been 4 years already!

In the last four years we've...

Lived in 3 different places, owned 3 different cars (two currently), I've received my Associates degree, Troy's graduated with his Bachelor's degree (both from Utah State), Troy's had 4 different jobs, we've been in 3 different church wards, we've taken trips to Catalina Island and Ensenada Mexico, Las Vegas, Portland and Vancouver, Park City, Cancun Mexico, Provo and Los Angeles California, Troy has broken his collar bone and fractured his foot, I've had kidney stones, a C-section, and most importantly we've become PARENTS to Mr. Booker James. 

It has been 4 years of wonderful memories, some stressful, some happy, and some crazy, but I treasure them and wouldn't trade them for anything.

 I think I've already posted the picture on the left but oh well, it's a good one :)

So for our anniversary today I made Troy a couple of things that we can use to create more memories and experiences. 

First, I put together a Food Passport. I made a little book and filled it with different restaurants from around Boise that we have not been to before. There are 46 places with extra pages to add more restaurants as we find them or here about them.

Here are the rules to the book...

And here are some of the pages. I left a spot for what we thought about the place, so we could write it down and remember for the next time we go there. 

 I also put together a Date Idea Jar. There are 76 popsicle sticks with different ideas for dates. Some take planning and a little more money but most are easy, cheap, ready to go activities. 

I painted the mason jar blue using Elmer's glue and food coloring. Super easy and fast. I painted the inside so it gives the jar kind of sea glass look. The picture doesn't do justice on how cool it looks.
I got the date ideas from two different lists I found through Pinterest...

and 2. http://www.themomcrowd.com/30-ideas-for-a-date-night-at-home

 I also did this fun little tag for Troy's drink to take to work. I thought this was so cute and so easy. Hee hee :)

Today at lunch, Booker and I met Troy at Golden Wheel. We sat in the 4Runner and ate while Booker ran around in the trunk area haha. Bonus for buying that car! It was nice to see Troy during the day :)

I LOVE how we all look good in this picture and Booker is even smiling!!! So cute!

 This pic turned out really well on my phone of just us! :)

 And here are some throw-backs from 4 years ago :) These were the only ones I had on my computer which is really weird but oh well, they're good ones I guess!

 This one is my favorite :) First picture as a married couple. I love both of our faces!

I love this man so much!!!
