Normally I am opposed to any sort of cloud or precipitation during the Summer, but today I was so excited when I looked out the window and saw rain everywhere. I had been dying of the heat and was so excited for a day where I could stay inside and catch up on some of my favorite things. I hurried into my closet, put on my favorite sweater, made some hot chocolate, and listened to Taylor play my favorite songs. I hope the rain stays for a few more days so I can keep wearing sweaters and indulging in comfort food. Then I'll be ready for sunshine, snow cones, and floating the river. 

XOXO, CK

Happy Fourth! This year we took a road trip to Utah, reunited with the Kozak family, ate at the best snow cone shack on earth, ventured around BYU, road tripped back to Rexburg, tired Famous Dave's Barbecue, encountered an overly enthusiastic waitress, went to a Chukar's game, and endured some sunburns. All in all, it was perfect. Hope your Fourth was full of family and food like mine was. 

XOXO, CK

Place ingredients in blender and blend to desired texture. (I like mine powdery).

If you are using a Nutri-bullet, be careful, it blends up pretty quickly. You might want to pulse instead of puree. 

It should come out looking something like this:

1. Freeze 8-10 Strawberries

2. Measure out Water and Lemon Juice

3. Pour all contents into blender

4. Add ice as desired for thickness 

Your Skinny Sorbet should come out looking something like this:

Now mix the two together and you'll be in for a sweet treat. 

Feel free to save your extra Granola to enjoy with some greek yogurt later this week. It can be stored in your cabinet or your fridge! For some an extra sweet kick, add some shredded coconut to the batch.  Happy Healthy Eating!

XOXO, CK

We had so much fun this New Year's Eve at Disneyland!! We decided to use up our wedding gift Hopper tickets before the end of the year. Even though it was totally crowded, we still managed to take a picture in front of a Christmas tree, eat churros, attend Monsters University, watch the parade, and eat some frozen desert. Can't wait to spend more of this next year with my handsomest hubby. 

xoxo Happy New Year 

My wedding day was the most amazing day of my life.

Our reception was under a blanket of oak trees strung in white lights.

It was full of burlap, mason jars, flowers, candles, pictures, vintage street lamps, 

lanterns, lace, and precious memories.

My Aunt and cousin (who are wedding fairies) were kind enough to come down 

from Arizona and decorate my entire reception.

Sure it took DAYS of preparation to make my dream wedding a reality,

But it was beyond worth it.

Unfortunately there isn't a ton of pictures of all the decor,

And the pictures do not nearly do it justice.

But here it is!

Keep an eye out for our cake. 

It was the most delicious and beautiful thing to ever touch my taste buds.

About a month ago, my MIL convinced us that it would be fun to go to a Montana wedding. Boy was she right. The wedding was held at a cute old school building in the middle of the country. It made me wish I grew up in a town that had something other than buildings. I was completely mesmerized by all the cows and I found myself playing with them for about 30 minutes. There was burlap, hay, cupcakes, and rain. It was absolutely perfect.

Thank you Montana! && Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Hill!
