Bucket list

I think I am in denial about leaving Utah County. People hate on it all the time, but really it is great, and I love it and I will argue with anyone who is brave enough to say otherwise. One night last week I had a breakdown about moving and got really upset because I have so many places that I want to eat at down here and I feel like I don't have time. You must understand that growing up in the Richards family our world revolved around food. Multiple siblings of mine actually plan out trips to go specific places that they see on Diners Drive in's and dives. So after my breakdown Joe and I headed out to try to eat at a new place we have been meaning to try and it was great. And tonight I was able to cross off another place from my list. Here is where you come in...What yummy places do I need to go eat at? Or what in Utah County do I need to go do before we leave?

1. Smoking Apple in Lindon, We have eaten here a lot, but we would like to visit it weekly before we leave

2. Terra Mia-Gilatto was amazing

3. Sweet tooth fairy- Went here tonight...Amazing

4.Malawi's Pizza- we have been here a lot as well, but it is one of our favorites so we need to keep coming back.

5. Slab pizza

6. Awful waffle

7. J Dawg- again we have been here before, but it is a classic

8. purple turtle

9. Chef's table

10. Dickie's BBQ

Pocatello does fortunately have a Cafe Rio, thank goodness!

Pokey

This past week Joe accepted a Job offer in Pocatello, Idaho! He starts the beginning of June! He will be working as a clerk for a Judge. We are both scared to move out of our comfort zone of Provo and move to a city where we do not know anyone except the Judge and his wife. This is a year long commitment and then who knows where we will end up! He graduates from BYU Law school on April 20th. I am so proud of him and all his hard work. He is the best husband and friend that anyone could ask for. I love you Joe!

Toy story 3 makes me feel guilty

Am I the only person that felt incredibly guilty when they saw Toy Story 3? I had the best toys growing up...thank you Mom and Dad. I was looking at pictures on my phone and I saw these and just had to post them, because I have the cutest nieces and nephews!

I was obsessed with American Girl dolls when I was little. I even made my mom make clothes for them, like a poodle skirt that can be seen below. I normally let my nieces and nephews play with whatever of my old toys they want, but my American Girl doll collection is only for special occasions. When my niece Emily showed up to the house with her doll I had to show her mine and all of my awesome stuff. I love the memory I have of how huge her eyes got when she saw it.
Or maybe I used this as a good excuse to play with my old doll Samantha


They were really excited to find out that my sister Suzanne has a similar collection that she might pull out and play with them next times she visits from South Carolina.

Thank you to my nieces and nephews for making me not feel as guilty from Toy Story 3, and always playing with my old toys, and my American girl doll collection under very close supervision.
