Life in the Olden Days

So, as some of you may know, Nick and I are now without the Internet. So, we have no T.V., no internet and virtually no way of communicating with the outside world! We are just like the pioneers now! Well, it has actually been a blessing because we get to spend that much more time with just eachother. Its going to be fun trying to update the blog, so hang in there, because I'm really up to doing this.

This past Friday, we celebrated Pioneer day. We started out by going to the parade.
Nick standing in front of a cool float from the parade that we were too late to watch. It was still cool to see the other things they had going on there.
After the parade was over, they had this group dancing and a band playing behind them. It was cool to watch.

For some reason or another, admission to the aviary was free that day, so we went in and had fun looking at all the cool birds.

Later on, we went miniature golfing with Nick's family, and had fun watching Dave beat everyone! I didn't get any pictures of that or of the fun night we had on Saturday. We went up to Jon and Karina's, and went night swimming! Jared and Erica were there too, so it was TONS of fun! We can't wait to do it again before Jared and Erica leave for Washington!Then Sunday, Nick and I had to speak in church! We did a great job according to the members in our ward and also Jared and Erica who were so nice to come and listen.

Last night we had FHE. We read all about some of my ancestors who crossed the plains as pioneers and had fun learning about them. After that, we went to a park that is way cool! Its called Cottonwood park and it has chickens and ducks and geese and all sorts of other animals just wandering around. We brought Uno, and then had a hardcore basketball competition as you can see! So, that's been our fun weekend! I love this man, and we have so much fun together.
