The Taco Amigo Virgin.

I grew up completely loving food from Taco Amigo and ate it VERY frequently...after all, back in the day, where else could you eat when you were in Pleasant Grove? I love it to this day and still go there way too frequently. I go there so frequently that I'm pretty sure I could safely know what to order for all immediate family as well as several of my cousins and my aunt. My husband however, has NEVER joined me. #1- He doesn't like anything with beans so it's not like I'm going to suggest us eat there. #2- He told me that he doesn't like it. Well, last night we had to go to Lehi and Tyler was starving so before going home, we decided to grab food...strangely, and shockingly, this is where he decided we should eat. As we pull up he tells me he has NEVER had their food. I was completely shocked and upset. I couldn't believe it. I have known him for how long and he's never had Taco Amigo. I told him he was a liar, because he had told me that he didn't like it, but he really couldn't say that if he'd never tried it. Turns out he has had a caramel oreo shake from there and said that it was pretty good, but never did eat their food. I'm still pretty upset that I went all this time not knowing he hadn't had a REAL Taco Amigo experience, but I am glad he finally had one. Obviously he didn't get anything with beans but did approve of their burgers and shut down there Chicken Burrito, but good news is he did say, he would be willing to eat there again. I'm so glad he finally tried it and is no longer a Taco Amigo virgin.

Words from Tyler.

One of the VERY BEST things about Tyler is how funny he is.
I know I have shared this fact many times before, but I am sharing it again, just with a new reason :)

One of things that makes Tyler so darn funny is all the funny words he makes up or the funny things he renames. Last Saturday we went out to dinner and to a movie with Jaynee and Cam. We went to the Water Gardens theater and they have sucker dispensers with Chupa Chups, only come to find out, in Tyler's world they are Chalula's. I think I will stick to his name, it's so much better especially since Chupa Chups just means suck sucks...or something along those lines.

And then there is my favorite of all...if I asked majority of people what these ---->
are, they would say Croutons. But they'd be wrong, because turns out they are called Newtons. Yes, NEWTONS! Random, I know. The best part was how I found out Tyler's lovely name for these. I don't remember why they were even brought up, but he kept talking about Newton's...me, I was maybe thinking he was referring to Fig Newton's? I dunno. So I finally asked him what in the world he was talking about and what the heck a Newton was and he said, "you know those hard bread crumb things you put on salads." Silly me, didn't know what a Newton was, but I sure do now! Thank goodness I have a fantastic husband to teach me all these things!

...and yes, these are just 2 of MANY Tyler words...maybe I will share more soon!

Conference Weekend.

Every Conference weekend Tyler's mom has us all come down to their house for Girls Night while the boys head off to Priesthood Session...it's always fun to spend time with the Hunsaker girls! They are lots of fun to be around!
 (Height-wise I think I would have blended better in the Men's picture)

Nicole the Fool.

In the past I really haven't been into April Fools Day, but I am wise enough not to fall for anything and for as long as I can remember, no one has fooled me until this year. For those of you who don't know, Tyler works construction and so he leaves for work pretty early in the morning. I usually wake up when he does but don't get out of bed and then fall back to sleep once he leaves. Needless to say, that early in the morning the fact that it was April Fools was so not on my mind. So when the husband sent me a text saying, "Bad news.... They are doing layoffs today and rumor has it I could be gone..." I instantly fell for it. Not only was I half asleep, but this very well could be a possibility, since all week he had been complaining how awful work was and how slow it had been and he hadn't had anything to do. Sooo yes, I will admit...I was the FOOL and started stressing out and I will even admit there was a few tears shed, before my husband sent the April Fools message! I would have LOVED to get him back and had a few ideas up my sleep, unfortunately though, it was a very busy day for us and we went straight from work to Tyler's mission reunion so I didn't get the opportunity...but on the bright side I have an entire year to plan my revenge!

This One's For Lisa.

My Aunt recently complained that I never blog anymore...
I informed her of the reason, which is, I have nothing to write about.
There are so many days where I log in to blogger and stare at the screen figuring out what I could possibly blog about. I have had this feeling continually since being married. I really have turned into a boring married person. Not only that, but I am not currently in school, so I don't even have that to complain write about. I am going to try and do better to find super awesome things to blog about. Ironically my conversation with Lisa occurred at our family Easter Egg Hunt, so she told me I now had something to blog about...which is very true! Last weekend was nice and eventful between April Fools Day (yes, my husband got me good!), General Conference, Tyler's mission reunion, and the Easter Party....so good news! I can blog again. My plan was to post it all now, but I figure...why not drag it out? So for today this is all, look forward to many EXCITING posts to come. I am determined to spice up our lives and have more good stuff to share!
