Cooking! La Pasta Marinara :)

One thing I like to do is cook! I served my mission in Rome, Italy, so I learned a thing or two about pasta. This particular pasta was shown to me by a friend in the city of Ostia. It is a small city by the ocean, so the sea food is super fresh! Because I am landlocked, all my sea food comes frozen unfortunately... So it is not as good, but we live with what we've got :)

I made this pasta from a recipe I kind of followed on allrecipes.com (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/seafood-marinara-pasta/). I didn't follow it exactly because I didn't have all the ingredients. You can look at the website for the specific amounts, but I will just say what I used. I used spaghetti, half a yellow onion, garlic, can of diced tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, ground thyme, shrimp, and muscles. It was good, but I would have added a bit more olive oil and used some ground red peppers to spice it up a bit. Anyways, it was good. Naomi liked it. I was just using stuff I wanted to use up from the freezer. 

Saturday

Blowing bubbles at the park, sidewalk chalk art, flying kites, eating hot dogs and watermelon, going to a water park, and ending with a cute movie!  What a Saturday!  It was such a great day spending it with my best friend, who also happens to be my sweetheart.

Summer is so~~~~~~~o fun!  I am enjoying it while I can since we are both out of school.  More adventures to follow!  And look out for the Iron Chef's post!

Temple

Provo Temple

Today was a beautiful day to visit the temple.  After a hard day's work (mostly for Josh), we had a wonderful date night to the temple.  So peaceful.  It really is a refuge from the world just like our little apartment.

What a wonderful way to start our weekend before a great debut!  Just wait.  And be excited.

First Year Anniversary

In celebration of our one-year anniversary, we have decided to start a blog!  So ... here it is!  

Ta Da~~~~~~~!

I hope you are all impressed.  :)

We can't believe that it has been a year since we have been married!  We have LOVED this journey and every since day and moment has been worth it!  

As we are quite apt to be on an adventure, it may be hard to catch us on the blog, but we will do the best we can (even if it short) to share our journey with you!
