Life as it comes

Ok, so lots of stories. I was just browsing through the pictures on my cell phone and decided my stories would be more interesting with a visual anyway. This is not in any sort of order, just as I find them. I'll try to bridge time in between, but... I make no promises :)

Kite flying! A couple of weeks ago (actually, this was an hour or two before the picture from the last post- Hare Kishna, the Festival of Colors at the Indian Temple in Spanish Fork. They light something symbolic on fire and then we all throw colored flour/chalk, we're still not entirely sure what it is) my roommate and I were enjoying the beautiful weather! We went to the park, and then we decided we really wanted to get some kites. We went to Walmart, Spider Man and Mickey and Minnie are up there in the sky. It was so much fun, and we started a trend of people out flying kites. It was so much fun!

My mom sent me these sunglasses for Easter.
Yes, I did send her this picture.















The above was at the basketball game (or the start of) that I took the kids to when Jason and Joey were out of town. They got bored really fast because they forfeited (sad!)! And the kids were so excited about the game!

Kikki and I jumping on the trampoline. The same aforementioned weekend.



Oh, what a great picture. Well, I learned how to longboard a couple of nights ago. I did a great job, as I was told, for my first time longboarding. This is the only time I fell off, actually, and it was within the first ten minutes. I got going really, really fast. My friend that was teaching me saw how fast I was going and said, "Wow. You are going freak fast." ... I don't even know what that phrase means, except that I had too much speed. But I knew that without him telling me. I decided I needed to stop. So I jumped off.
In case the picture doesn't make that perfectly clear, you should not try that at home. Or really, ever.

This probably isn't novel to anyone but me that didn't grow up in Utah. But this was at the Provo Tabernacle. My roommate (Asia) was singing there for a concert. (I probably shouldn't get started, but what a weird building! I mean, it's cool, but it really should be organized better. We walked in the first door we could see that was unlocked, and the choir had already started singing. So we just sneaked quietly up the stairs, those which I found out all too quickly were the stairs to the benches the choir was singing on. The very top of the tabernacle. I'm a genius...) Long story short, I couldn't resist catching this on my camera!

... The sad remains of DT. And to be honest, there's not even that much left anymore.

Alright, I didn't go into very much detail, and this really is just a random, random update with photos. Does is still count as an actual post?

Upcoming events: We started reading days today! We are in the process of making our second music video (if you haven't seen our rendition of It's All Coming Back To Me by Celine Dion, please let me know! We're working on putting it on youtube!)

That music video sounds like a must see.

Love the pics! Especially the one of Larrin looking really bored. And you've totally convinced me that I must try longboarding.

And hey, what happened to DT? Where are all the freshies going to live now?

They ripped it down. But don't worry, they all live in King Henry :D
