Top 10 Questions asked in our Home

Top 10 questions asked in our home:

10. What's for dinner?
9. Are you coming home tonight or tomorrow?
8. Did you have lunch already?
7. How was babysitting?
6. Do you have any more homework tonight?
5. Did you talk to anyone today? (phone calls to/from family and friends)
4. How are you feeling?
3. How's the internship going?
2. How was work?
1. How was class?

Sometimes we go over all these questions in a day and sometimes we only have time for one or two of them, usually asked over the phone as one of us is driving from one activity to another. Despite the lack of time we get to spend together, it is sure fun to see all the things we are accomplishing. We are both learning so much at work and school and we are really learning to make our time together quality because quantity is just not an option!

Brett went back to school

Our wonderful summer has ended. We sure had some great times!

Brett is back to school. I like that now we can say next semester is his last! This semester he is taking:

  • Income Tax (the 2nd half)
  • Accounting Information Systems
  • Financial Management
  • Leadership
  • Professional Internship
  • GMAT prep class
Doesn't that just make you want to go to his classes with him! No? Yeah, me neither :) He sure has a big load this semester: classes, internship, accounting society ambassador, studying for the GMAT. I know he'll do great! 

I have continued loving my job with Color in Motion 5k. We have 3 races coming up in the next couple months in Dallas, Jacksonville, and then Houston. The interns and I absolutely love watching as more and more people sign up for the races! I also keep busy with baby sitting one of my good friends daughters- 1 1/2 and absolutely adorable- while she goes to class. There will also be institute and yoga class to keep me busy starting next week. (I try to stay busy so that I don't go crazy watching Brett do homework- its not good for either of us) 

That is a quick update on the Binghams!

P.S. I think everyone has heard, but just in case, Baby coming in March :)

Bear World!

Happy Labor day everyone!

Today has been a very packed day! We went to Idaho Falls to do some back to school shopping for Brett - he is down to one pair of jeans without holes in them. We went to the mall and loved the Labor Day Sales! We then enjoyed Brett's favorite restaurant, Texas Road house! We got two meals, two salads and an onion blossom for 16 dollars!

What I feel was the highlight of our day - Bear World! We have lived in Rexburg for so long and never taken the time (or money) to go to Bear world! I am so glad we did :)

We drove through and saw deer, elk, mountain goats, buffalo, black bears, grizzly bears, and even wolves! It was so cool. Some of the bears would come right up to the car and sniff around!

Funny Story: As you drive through you are not supposed to stop. You just go 3-5 miles an hour the entire time, so we were pretty annoyed when the car in front of us was stopped. Then out of nowhere the biggest black bear in the whole park come walking straight toward our car. I am saying "Aw, its so cute!" And Brett is panicking saying, "go cars, go NOW, go, go, go!" He was legitimately scared, maybe I would have been more so if it had been on my side of the car. Side note: we were fine it just walked up to the car sniffed around and walked past. As I laughed at Brett later he said, "That was scary! It looked me straight in the eyes!"

They also had a petting zoo that was fun, we got to pet baby deer and goats, I was not going to go anywhere near those chickens though! no thanks!

Overall a great day :)
