The Foothills

The Boise Foothills have many hiking, biking, and pet friendly trails to explore and enjoy.  Michael and I  explored Camel's Back/Hulls Gulch Reserve this Saturday.  It was a beautiful little hike through practically our backyard.  Thankfully this time I didn't get stung by any bees!

Women's Celebration

This weekend was fun.  Michael volunteered as an escort for St. Luke's Women's Fitness Celebration 5K.  He also stood on the side walk in his half tuxedo (dressy on top and casual on bottom) to slap hands and cheer on the runners, joggers, and casual walkers as they near the finish line.  Following the race there was a fun concert and lots of dancing.  Michael got to dance with an older lady on the concert stage.  Here are some photos.

Several husbands came to celebrate the women in their lives. I think they are adorable.

Last runner to cross the finish line.

Later that day we enjoyed the company of Josh and Whitney Blauer.  Josh is back from Iraq and Michael was able to be with his bestie for an evening.  Those kids are silly when they get together.  We watched the Boise state game at the Sub because we don't have the CBS sports channel and the student guest tickets were all sold out. :( The game was fun and the crowd really gets into the game at the Student union which definitely adds to the excitement.  To end the night right we went for frozen yogurt; It was a delicious ending to a great night.
