Banana bread

I HATE making banana bread! Who ever thought that it was so hard to make.  I have made probably 6 loaves(3 different recipes) and NONE of them have ever turned out.  I hate it!  I will never make banana bread ever again. Such a waste of all my ingredients.  Boo.

Welcoming Summer

As bummed as I am about my summer being consumed with work and school, I am definitely excited that it's finally here.  I love barbecuing in the summer time! Tanner and I had ourselves our own little barbecue the other night.  It definitely lifted my spirits and made me think of all the things that I am 

 looking forward to this summer.

Swimming

Saturday Beach Days

Bike rides

Wearing my new bathing suit

Lake Powell

And of course barbecuing

  I have been so spoiled up to this point.  This is my very first summer ever working and my first semester of summer school.  Luckily I know this will be the last summer I ever have to take school so I think I can handle it.  It's probably a blessing that I am always so busy because on my down time I get pretty homesick for my family.  Everyone tells me that it gets easier, I'm crossing my fingers that it will. 

Camping in Malibu

Tanner and I went on a hike to a swimming hole. The water was freezing at first but we quickly warmed up to it. Of course, Tanner saw a rock and wanted to jump off.

I made Tuna melts for dinner. Unfortunately we left them on the fire 10 minutes too long on one side and they were really charred on one side. Good thing we brought a lot of smores to fill us up.

Tanner booked a campsite for my birthday back in April. This was the first weekend we could go and we had a lot of fun. We drove up to Malibu Creek and only stayed one night.
