Yesterday, Deven, Porter and I celebrated Deven's 25th birthday by taking a drive that was initially meant to be a hike up to Mesa Falls and Island Park.
Throughout the entire week we've had beautiful sunny weather...up until Deven's birthday that is. The clouds decided to rain on us. And once the rain cleared up, the wind picked up. Bummer! We didn't let the weather ruin the day for us though. We had the most AMAZING trip and were able to visit some of the most breathtaking sights.
After taking a walk over the Island Park Dam, Deven returned to the car and told me he'd finally understood what the term "BREATHTAKING" meant. He was standing at water level at a bridge. He saw where the river had carved a crevice into the hillside, tree's lining the banks and covering the hillside....pure bliss:) I didn't get a chance to see it because I didn't want to wake Porter, but then I couldn't leave the car with him in it.
For lunch, we headed over to Big Jud's. (Creative name right? haha) MY FIRST TIME THERE! We got the Big Jud's Special: 1lb burger with all the toppings, 2 waffle cones and fries. MMMMMM!! I love the home-cooked goodness! The burger bun was even toasted on the inside!! SOO YUMMY! It's almost as if this restaurant was CATERED to me!
After driving around for about 4 hours, we headed home to watch the 2nd to LAST episode of LOST with Scotty. I made up a new recipe that I heard about from my cousin and great friend Haley. It's called the "Peanut Butter Brownie Truffle". No need to say more right?? SOO good! It turned out better the next day after having been refrigerated longer though.
If any of you have ever tasted a "leanout" smoothie from Emerald City Smoothie, it tasted a lot like that..mmmm! Peanut-Butter Chocolate Goodness!
All in all, it was a great day!
