Year.....1...2...3!!!!!

March 12th  marked 3 years from the day...
 I stayed up all night doing homework, so I could email my assignments to my professors,
I felt the biggest butterflies known to man in my stomach,
I endured the longest drive to Twin Falls in my life,
I walked into the Temple with my parents as Mekala Koyle,
I put on a pretty white dress,
I held my fiance's hand for the last time,
I held my husbands hand for the FIRST time,
I came out of Temple as Mekala Bingham,
 I made the BEST decision in my life!!!
Where does the time go!?



 A few weeks back we decided to change our regular anniversary trip this year. In years past (the last 2) we have gone to Boise to celebrate, but this year we wanted to do something new. We decided to go to Pocatello . Really we only decided Pocatello because it had a cool hotel we wanted to stay in. 
Our plans had to change because Hank had some things come up with work (joys of being a farmer's wife). We didn't go on our anniversary we just pushed it to the weekend. 

The first stop was in Malta, we stayed the night at my Brother and Sister in laws house.  It is always fun to visit family. Thanks again Zeb and Jami!
 Friday morning/afternoon we were on the road again....

We didn't have a time schedule to follow so we had a nice relaxing ride ahead. On the way we drove by massacre rock and decided to check it out. It was fun to walk around and look at all the names carved into the rocks.
It sure would have been smart if I had actually read any of the signs telling the story behind why its called massacre rock......but I didn't. So now we will just have make up the story.



I think my favorite part was the shower/tub. To fill  the tub it came out of the water pump into the bucket. It was a deep jet tub so it made a nice waterfall.


The shower head was a watering can. It was pretty sweet! Although the only down fall is from where I stand in the shower ( 5'2) by the time the water would get to my head the stream of water coming out of the can was already spread out. So it was hard to get all the soap off when only about three of the holes from the watering can actually hit my head. But other then that....it was sweet! (just  meant I had to take a longer shower....shucks ;)


Our little friend who stayed in the room with us.


On the way home we stopped at Walmart for a few last minute groceries, when I realized we hadn't taken a picture together all weekend.( I'm totally sucking at the picture taking department these days) so we took a quick picture. I know, we're fancy!

Marriage has been the most amazing journey and I am grateful that Hank is the one I get to share the ride with!
