How Neat!!

So, I got to school pretty early yesterday and they were putting up the flag. It was one of the coolest things I've seen. Everyone was walking and then all of the sudden the national anthem started. Everyone stopped right where they were and turned towards the flag. It was just so spiritual. Isn't it nice to know we live in a free country and that we have people who fight and are willing to fight for that? I love it!!

Heavenly Father does truely bless us. It might not be in the ways that we want or that we thought it would happen, but he truly loves us. Isnt that wonderful?

It's so fun to be at a school that incorporates the Gospel and intelect. I think the BYU bug has bit me!! lol I am learning so much!:)

Soo much fun and not enough study!

So we are playing a whole lot and I told Kevin that everyone is going to think all we do is play. He replied with "They know we are up here with Joyce. They expect it!" LOL


So my little sister, Denise, came and spent the night at our house with her friend and Joyce took us rock climbing up in Rock Canyon!Here is the ginormous rock we repelled on.
Just kidding it's not so high, I am just way afraid of heights. They made me go first! I am trying to smile but it's hard when you feel like you are going to die.
Even another group was laughing at me. They told me "everyone acts like that their first time."
Then I had to tell them it wasn't my first time! LOLI finally made it over the edge. As long as I didn't look down I was okay.



The whole time Denise is like "Just go!" and "Hurry up!" Then on her turn she was just as scared as I was. Okay maybe I was a little bit more scared but she was scared too!
Denise's freind, Alicia, went with us. She went down pretty quick I was surprised.
She is so cute and nice. Kevin is fearless. I swear he thinks he is Spider-Man!
He was too quick to take a picture of. This was the best one.
He claims he got down the fastest!

The race was between him and Joyce. They go over the edge like it's nothing.
They are some wild kids. I don't know how much I like Kevin going out to play with Joyce. HAHA
They both think nothing will ever happen to them and that they will never get hurt, so putting them together just makes it worse. LOL
When we got home Kevin told my sister "Joyce and I are best buds!" lol

Then later that night we walked to The Creamery on Ninth. When you cross the street they have these orange flags on both sides of the crosswalk so that a car will see you better. Well Kevin never just grabs a flag and walks across. He always has to use it to flag people through and act as the crossing gaurd. Well, this time he brought a whistle and good thing cuz he really almost got hit by a Suburban that didn't see him. Maybe he'll stop playing in the street, but I doubt it. LOL It does make me laugh every time though. He is so silly.


Sorry about the picture it all happened so fast and I had my camera on the wrong mode:(

Denise and Alicia, We really did have lots of fun. Come back soon you here?

Keeping In Touch

Kevin's knee is doing really well. It's still swollen and stiff but he is able to walk without any crutches. He has a slight limp but he loves being able to walk. Now he can't wait till he can run!

We started school!! We love it here at BYU! Our classes are good so far and we are having so much fun just being together.

We hope everyone at home is doing great! We miss you all. Especially we miss all of our neices and nephews. I talked to Whitney on the phone yesterday and she was all "Aunt Missa I miss you!" It made me feel soo special lol. We love all of you guys, and we can't wait to meet you Sydney! We want pictures of everyone to put on our fridge so when we have visitors we can brag about our family!! So please send them!

We love you!!!

Camping!!!

So last weekend we went camping with Joyce and her hubby Chris. On the way there we kinda turned down the wrong street for a while and saw this house that had a fence made of snow skis and snow boards. Kevin turned around so that i could take a picture. I have never seen something like this. Even though it was a waste of skis it was way cool!We went to Mirror Lake to fish. In the background you can see Bald Mountain!
Isn't it beautiful in Utah?Dave Handi came and taught us how to catch a fish! He was so patient with us:)
Joyce caught her first fish and the first fish of the day, but she wouldn't touch it.
She is so funny. We used worms as bait and she wouldn't touch those either!
I always thought Joyce was fearless but I was wrong:)Sorry about the sideways picture. But I caught my first fish!
But, mine was too small to keep. I caught 3 fish and they were all too small!!Kevin has a fish in his hand. But his was too small to keep too! I think the bigger fish were too smart to get caught! HAHA
The love of my life fishing!!!
(Sorry about the sideways pictures. If somone knows how to change it please do tell!)Kevin, Dave Handi, and Molly. Molly was so fun. I want a dog!
Kevin showed me how to gut Joyce's fish. It wasn't to bad until I flung guts into my face!!
It was very yucky!! Everyone laughed, everyone but me!!
We had so much fun camping! Thank you for inviting us!!!
