My City Boy

Couldn't resist this photo opp., who would have thought under that dorky hat, camo shirt and shorts that don't match is a city boy? Is it weird that I love this side of him?
Winston also loves this side of him!

Happy Fathers Day Justin!

Happy 1st Fathers Day to my husband! Thank you for being such a wonderful father and husband!

We spent a really nice weekend in Umatilla with family. Uncle Scott is too good of a cook for my own good. I'm sure I have gained back all of the weight I had lost. Oh well, I guess that is why I married a personal trainer!

Meet my family

I would like to introduce you to my family. This is my handsome husband Justin. He is a personal trainer and just opened up his own gym in north Meridian! If anybody is in need of some training, Justin is the BEST trainer in Boise, trust me I know! Or, if you are looking for a place to work out Fit Stop is the place to go! Its on the corner of Chinden and Long Lake between Linder and 10 mile roads (please forgive the shameless plug!).


Justin and I welcomed home our 1st child on May 1, 2009. Isaac Levi Trail (aka Baby Bean), the most beautiful baby boy in the whole world! I may be a bit biased, but I'm a mommy and I am allowed. Right? Isaac came into the world weighing 8lbs 1oz and was 22in. I was hoping he would be a little bigger so I could blame all the extra weight I gained on him. Yeah, that's right, I'm a blame shifter, and I'm one with it.
God has blessed me with a wonderful husband who loves us and makes me laugh everyday, and a perfect little boy who brings me joy that I never expected. Hurray for Beans!
And of course I can't forget our dog! This is Winston (who is known around our house as Monkey Bean. Don't ask, I don't know), he is an Old English Bulldog, heavy on the bull! He is the sweetest dog, who LOVES Isaac (I'm pretty sure he thinks Isaac belongs to him). He definitely has a mind of his own and does pretty much whatever he wants, which is pretty naughty; but we love him anyway. Winston, much like Justin, makes me laugh everyday too!

Welcome to my Bean Trail!

I am trying my hand at blogging. Not entirely sure why, I don't have much to say and have no idea what this blog will be about. However, I have found myself with an extra minute here and there and thought why not try to fill them by boring others? That is if I can manage to con anybody into visiting my humble little blog. So; please for the LOVE OF GOD please visit! I am sure along the way I will have something worth saying or at least somewhat humorous. One can hope anyway. But maybe I should apologize in advance for wasting your time . . . nah, I'll save that for later. Welcome! And enjoy your cows!
