We've also been going kayaking a lot the past few weeks to help cool down an enjoy the outdoors. We rented some kayaks from the BYUI campus and kayaked down the Snake River. I forget sometimes how beautiful Idaho is and how much I actually do love living here.
I also participated in my first garage sale EVER. I only remember one garage sale my mom did and she let me sell my little mermaid backpack. Collin went camping with some of his buddies and I stayed behind to try and get rid of some things that have been piling up in our closets and see if I could make some extra money to put towards our trip to Hawaii. Me and a few girls from my ward put the garage sale together and after a couple hours of sitting in the sun and exchanging bargaining stories, I ended up with $195.25! I was ecstatic!
Some big ticket items included a video camera, some goose down bedding which was way too heavy for our liking and a record player (which I got for free when someone in our apartment complex was just giving away!)
I put my earnings in our "Hawaii jar" that will go towards a trip there next year hopefully for our 5 year anniversary. Its a small drop in the bucket but we are slowly getting there!
Even though it's been hot, we are thoroughly enjoying our summer and soaking up as much sun and heat as we can.
