I've got FOUR letters for ya...
R.M.E.F.
Maybe not the four letters you might
have been thinking but still!
have been thinking but still!
This weekend I flew out to Lewiston to see my amazing boyfriend. We got into town late Friday night so we just hung out at the apartment and chatted a bit. Then Saturday we got up and headed over to James' parent's house for breakfast. His Mom made the yummiest things ever! Eggs, pull apart, hash browns, fruit, coffee and OJ. It was awesome! Then we headed back to the apartment and got ready for the RMEF banquet.
What is RMEF you ask? It's the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation "ensuring the future of elk, other wildlife and their habitat." James is a committee member and they host a banquet with all sorts of fun things once a year. They have things like silent auctions, live auctions, guessing boards, open bar, great food, and fun prizes. It was just a small taste of the outdoor community. I don't think I have seen so much CAMO in one place at a single time! It was awesome!
Jamie, Jen and I decided to start critiquing the people who walked by us. Some people really needed the fashion police cause WHOA! We're talkin everything from purple shirt and shiny red heels, to gold boots, to floods and back! It was so much fun to be able to spend time with the ladies! They are fabulous!
Then after walking around and looking at the auction items, and the bucket drawings we got in line for some grub. It was the most amazing food! We had salad, mac and cheese (not so good), rolls, garlic mashed potatoes, and best of all BITE SIZE. For those of you who have not had the amazing opportunity to partake of this fabulous steak concoction it is the most savory dish one could want. It is small steak squares with seasoned breading, deep fried. You dip in Au Jus and hot damn you can't stop eating it! The boys got mounds of it and not a single piece was left!
After the meal we listened to the live auction where the boys would occasionally scare us with some bids. Then we took one last look at the silent auction items and got ready to head out.but not before James and Scott got some "cool posters to put in the apartment". It was quite silly but fun to watch them!
We headed home and everyone crashed. Sunday morning we got up and James and I headed over to his Aunt's house to look at a car seat for when I take Jayden in two weeks YAY! Then we got back on the road to drive out to Spokane for my flight back home. Although I was super sad about leaving James' side again I know I get to spend a whole week with him in a little over a week! It will be awesome!
