Chubby Bunnies

Last Friday night we had the chance to go camping. Well, is it technically camping if you don't stay the night? Nate and a bunch of his old friends and their wives decided to have a campout up at Mutual Dell. We had a campfire, tin foil dinners, s'mores, and games. I've decided that one of the best camping games is Chubby Bunnies. The object of the game is to see who can fit the most marshmallows in their mouth and still pronounce the phrase "I am a chubby bunny." When I suggested we play, I thought that I would be met with opposition, but all the boys lined up to play. Amanda and I were practically rolling on the ground watching them play. I am so sad that I didn't have my camera with me at the time.

Fourth of July!

Happy 4th of July to everyone! Hope you are all having a blast. Well, I am stuck at work tonight and Nate is going to see a movie with Benji and Amanda. He really wants to set off some fireworks tonight but I warned him that I don't want to see him here at the hospital with severe burns or missing fingers! So let's hope he stays safe. Both Nate and I are tired of these hot temperatures already. We decided that once he's finished with school we wouldn't mind moving to Oregon or Washington. Bring on some rain! We are feeling so grateful for air conditioners this time of year.

Vacation

Some pictures from our April vacation to Newport Beach with Nate's family. The beach was so much fun, not too hot and not too cold. I told Nate that in the unfortunate event that we ever have to move to California, we better have a beach for a backyard! All jokes aside, going to the beach was our favorite part of vacation. We also went to Knottsberry Farm. Although with my fear of fast rides, I think Nate had more fun than me, but I did go on one rollercoaster with him and I did survive to tell about it.

Practice Makes Picture Perfect

Since I am so new to this blogging world I thought I would play around and try out some things. I recently pulled out our wedding cd so I thought I'd try a post with pictures added to it. So here goes.....

Opportunity?

Today, just after church, Nathan and I were asked to speak this upcoming Sunday. I was just getting to the point that I thought we were safe. So of course, I am already stressed. We have 35 minutes between the two of us and Nate said he is only going to use up five of them. We'll see how this goes. Maybe, if I do poorly enough, they will release me from Primary! Wish us luck this week.

A+ Appliances

We have finally joined adulthood! Nate and I bought our first washer and dryer last Saturday and they were delivered on Wednesday. And the part that gets to me is how excited we are. Who knew household appliances could bring such happiness to a home?! No more schlepping around this county and the next to get our laundry done. The only drawback is that they are white, I wanted a fun color like red, but our make and model doesn't come in anything but white. But I don't even care, I am just so excited to have clean clothes around the clock!
