Idaho Girl
I have been trying to figure out what the definition of a true Idaho girl is. For one, I love the smell of burning ditches and weeds. That's probably really weird but it reminds me of when I was little and my sister and I actually cared for two baby cows (calves) called Star and Cracker. Or maybe I am true Idaho girl because Greyson and I went out in freezing weather today and worked out at the highschool track. Maybe true Idaho girls only marry farm boys from small towns. My two sisters married boys from Malad and Salmon, very small town. And I married a rough and tough farm boy from Rexburg. Josue somehow missed the boat on that one, but it's because she chose to venture to Utah for school. Although her husband did live in Idaho for a while, I guess that counts. I could be a true Idaho girl because I have 3 different kinds of potatoes in my pantry right now. If a true Idaho girl has to enjoy shooting things, fishing, camping and hiking then I am OUT!!! Idaho girls go shopping, right?

Sounds like you're convincing yourself that life in Idaho is good, but still miss Utah tremendously too! ;) We miss you dearly.
I remember being at Ricks talking to some people and I guy pointed out that I was from Idaho. I asked him how he knew and he said that I had a "Idahoan" accent. A what? So, don't forget your accent.
Well I love the smell of lawn fertilizer from memories of Dad outside on Saturday mornings so the burning ditch thing isn't that weird...:) It's true, I really did miss the memo on marrying someone from a small Idaho town. Clark was born in Boise...that should count!
By the way, your last post, I love Christmas in Idaho! As hard as I'm trying, I just can't seem to get in the mood here when there aren't any snow-capped mountains.
