Yesterday I wanted to step back into my childhood for a little bit. I have a memory of being in our duplex in Pittsburgh, PA (so I was younger than 9 yrs old), making waffles with my mom. I remember them being pretty difficult to make because you have to separate the egg whites and yokes and…
Family
1700 Miles
and we enjoyed every last one of them! We decided to take a trip to San Francisco late one night a few weeks ago and it just came together with a little last minute planning. Take-off occurred at 5:30am Tuesday morning. I started off in the pilot seat driving our way to Yosemite and switched…
Rope, Rides, and Refreshments
Our Family Home Evening this last Monday was so epic it gets its own post! We joined our next door neighbors for a lesson and then went out to the Provo River trail to start the night off with longboarding. Neither Andrew nor I had ever set foot on one previously, so there were some…
July Fun!
After the 4th of July Festivities, this little family joined the big Snow family for some family reunion fun by Zion’s National Park. The whole Snow clan stayed in this beautiful cabin. The festivities included Bunco, an Amazing Race, movies in the theater room, eating lots of good food, indexing, playing with a sugar glider…
A Little Catch Up
We made lava cake for a FHE recently – it was a great success. Andrew was armed and ready to grab them from the oven. And they tasted delicious! On Friday we went to our first free Provo Rooftop Concert Series. It was a very interesting experience. The opening group did a lot of rapping…
We Bought a Zoo
and it opened on July 7. And that is the same day we watched this, our new favorite movie (both of us – even Andrew). Perfect for the whole family. Perfect for even the harshest movie critic. Why? Well I recommend watching it to find out. Here’s what IMDB says about it: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1389137/
4th of July!
First of all, we live in America and that is a very great place to be! We are so grateful for the opportunities that we have here and for those that sacrificed so much to make that possible. We had a wonderful 4th of July. It began rather early in the morning – 5:45 AM – at…
Irish Bliss
Tonight the Irish band I’m in performed with an advanced Irish class at BYU. It was also an Irish dance club night, so before we performed we were invited to join the dancers. So fun!!!! And Andrew is a WAY better dancer than I am!!! And then we performed – which is also the first…
Firsts
The last few weeks have been filled with first time experiences: BYU Men’s Rugby game – way intense. Saw the Avengers and then got locked out of our apartment until midnight when our heroic managers came down from Salt Lake to let us in. We got Wendy’s to tie us over. Melted something in our…
Let the Games Begin
This week Andrew and I began a new chapter in our life: Intramural Kickball. Wednesday was our debut and we didn’t do too badly. We didn’t know what was going on 98.34% of the time though because there are a million random rules for BYU kickball. For example: if you are an outfielder, you cannot touch…
