If all days were like this...

...then life would be perfect! ♥ ♥

First thing on the agenda today, hitting up our favorite flea markets! I probably should have taken pictures there... But they were packed and I didn't want to risk knocking anything over with my camera. But I ended up finding two adorable little Pyrex cups at a steal of a price - Only $1.40 for both!! And they go perfectly with my little Pyrex refrigerator dish, which I use as a k-cup holder!



Before we knew it, it was time for lunch. For lunch we hit up a great little local spot, The Purple Burrito. It's such a great little place. I wish I'd gotten a picture of the outside, but I didn't... The building is painted bright purple and inside all the tables are made out of raw cheap particle board and metal. Sounds odd I know, but it works and is very charming!

Oh and the food... It's amazing California style Mexican food. And they've got some great vegetarian options. I always get the vegetarian burrito, which is stuffed full with green peppers, pico de gallo, cheese, guacamole, sauteed onions, sour cream, rice and beans... Oh, and it comes with a side of chips and your choice of salsa from their salsa bar :) I promise this picture doesn't exaggerate... It really is so huge it can't fit on the plate!



After this we headed over to Jordon Valley park, which is a favorite of ours. Set right by the heart of our downtown :)

We found a hilltop and claimed it as ours...




From our hill we had quite the view! In front of us was the rest of the park...



To the left overlooked the part that branches back to downtown...



And behind us was the ballpark...



I took a few pictures of Ryan...




And he took a few of me...




I love this park! It has everything...

From beautiful flowers...



To dinosaurs...



Oh, and on the way home we stopped at local wonder, Andy's!



We split a peanut butter cup sundae! And oh my... It was blissful! Just like our day ♥
