  • Moochies!

    So a while back Tyler, Joseph (my little Brother) and I were watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.  This episode was all about subs.  Then they introduced this place in salt lake called Moochies that makes meatball subs and philly cheese.  We had to try it!  So we went while we were on our honeymoon ( I know, so romantic).  The first time we went there we tried the meatball sub.  Man alive it was excellent!  Then about two weeks ago, [...]

  • Experimental recipes…Maniladas

    The other day Tyler and I watched the food network (that’s nothing new) and we saw the most tasty looking meal!  It is called Maniladas.  It is a combination of manicotti and enchalads.   It sounds a little weird, but trust me, it was so tasty and pretty easy.  We took a picture because we were so proud of how well it turned out.

    Ingredients

    1 (8-ounce) package manicotti shells
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 Vidalia onion, chopped
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
    Salt and [...]

  • The Last High School Grad!

    Joseph is the youngest in the family and it was a sad and happy day to see him graduate from high school.  It was a really nice graduation, too bad it took the grads almost an hour to walk!  It was a little too long, but we were all happy to see him walk even if he didn’t want to.  Really I just can’t believe he is that old..

  • Quick trip to California

    So I decided that Tyler and I just really like all of these quick trips.  Over Memorial Day Weekend Tyler, Rachel, Joe, and I all drove to California.  Ali called and asked if there was any way for us to bring back her puppies.  So we jumped on the opportunity to take a little road trip.  We woke up and left on Saturday morning at 5 which means we got in about 4:30 there (it takes a little longer when [...]

  • A fun trip to Missouri

    So almost a month ago Tyler and I drove out with his parents to Missouri for our nephew’s blessing.  It was such a fun trip, but the drive out there took way longer than it should have.  We were driving about 25 hrs (by the way I think it should have taken us 19 or 20).  But we had to take a slight detour from Rawlings up to Casper and then back down to Cheyenne and the road between Casper [...]

  • Happy Birthday Tyler!

    On Saturday March 28th, I decided it would be fun to throw Tyler a surprise party (because his birthday wasn’t until the 31st).  I had things all worked out.  I was going to make Cafe Rio stuff and the night before I put the pork in so it would be extra tasty!  The next day we ran some errands and then Tyler was off to softball practice (yes, tyler is on a softball team with some of his buddies).  While [...]

  • Tyler and Melanie Brown

    On November 22, 2008 Tyler and I were married.  We were married up in the Bountiful Utah Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  It was such a beautiful day and I couldn’t have asked for better weather.  Things went really smoothly.  It was great to see my family and friends at the temple and the luncheon. I am so happy to be married to my best friend for time and all eternity.
