The great wall of....Minnesota!
I love this man.
Today Adam and I went to a place called Minnehaha Falls. It was so cool! It was kind of a rainy day and we were worried that we might get wet, but it cleared up enough for us to go out and have a little fun.

I'm glad I went back to the store and got more earlier today. They are sweet boys, I hope I fed them enough!

About week or so ago Adam and I had a so much fun! His work had this charity thing and they needed 5 people to go and go-cart race from Cummins. Well only a few signed up so they let me go too! There were 7 teams of 5 people all from different companies. The race was a 75 lap course and each person had to go at least one time. I think I did about 10 laps and let the other guys on my team do the rest. Adam had the best times around the track out of everyone. It took about an hour for the race to be finished. Yeeehawwwww!!!!!!!!!!!

Adam and I named our apartment " Uncle Nasty". Fitting I think. Its been so hot and humid we wake up in the morning stuck to the bed. I have to take cold showers to cool off. :/ Also we plan to buy a gun to shoot the dang bird that cheeps out side our window at 4 AM. Seriously as if the trains in the back yard aren't enough noise during the night! I got ear plugs but they don't work so well. o well at least its cooler at night. :)
Check out the newest member of our family! This sweet vintage bike cost a whopping 15$. I rode it about 5 miles on Friday and my butt is still sore. We named him Herman! Beautiful isn't he!

At Lake Calhoun we rented a tandem bike! It was so fun, then we layed out for about an hour. I was amazed that we didn't get sunburned. I forgot its not like Utah. In Utah you get fried to a crisp in about 10 min.
The big city!

I have really been enjoying Minneapolis! I have never lived outside of Utah before and its so fun to go out and explore everything around my apartment. Its crazy how much we take for granted when we live at home and know where things are and have friends/family close. I will defiantly come away from this summer a better and more rounded person. I have made a few friends that have really made life a little sweeter. Adam has been such a great support and source of strength for me. I think this summer will be a great growing experience for our marriage. I am so glad I'm not alone out here. Having my best friend with me all the time makes me remember why I fell in love with him in the first place. When we were at home in Utah I think we got raped up in our day to day lives with him going to school and having to study so much and me having my job and family. I think we kinda drifted a little because we didn't have to depend on each other as much. Out here its not just me its us and we have had so much fun together! I love having him all to my self. I have shed a lot of tears in the last three weeks but I know that everything will work out and that if I don't find a job I will survive. I'll Just be a little bored.
Adam and I were married on Dec 1st 2007. We now live in MN because Adam got a job with General Mills. I work at MN Oncology and hematology. We are trying to start a little family of our own so wish us luck! I love my sweet hubby so much and feel so blessed to have him.
