Thanks Abby for the fun week!

We got to have Abby come and stay with us this week. It was so much fun, I hope we didn't bore Abby to death though. With school and work going like crazy, we wished we had more time for fun. But we did squeeze in a blast of a time anyways. I think she thought the 10:00 bedtime was a little lame though...

Abby and I went and saw "Super 8".  We both thought it was pretty fantastic, and agree that "drugs are so bad"

We also we rock climbing. I wish we had gotten pictures of the rock climbing wall we did. We had so much fun, and Abby dominated. We stuck to routs (with minimal cheating) and climbed until we could no longer feel our fingers or forearms. We were so sore the next day we could barely hang on to the grocery bags coming out of the store.

We did get some pictures of the Bomb-Dig apple cupcakes we made. They pretty much rocked. They are a little lumpy... but totally look just like apples!

  

Chris and Abby also road bikes to campus and got lunch everyday. I thought that sounded like fun, but I was stuck at work... bummer.

We didn't get to do some of the fun things we wanted to do with Abby. So she'll have to come back to stay with us sometime (hint hint Abby). We totally didn't get to prove to her that Idaho snowcones kick Utah snowcones trash. We didn't get to the ice caves (not dangerous Mom and Dad, promise!). We didn't go to the planetarium, or go country dancing up on campus.

Thanks for coming though Abby. Hope you have a blast on your Birthday and hope to see you in a couple of weeks before you move half way around the world.

Oh and I shouldn't forget. Thank you Mom & Dad for the VERY cute present. It is a great incentive.

Car Show

Last weekend was Father's Day weekend. My dad was participating in a car show up in Salmon Idaho. Chris, Julie, and I drove up to hang out and have fun. For Dad's father's day gift I made him a cake that slightly resembled his purple GTX that he entered. We don't have a picture of it with the donut wheels on... :(

Chris wanted a picture next to this green car because it was a "Midget". All for you Abby!

Chris started drooling when he saw this car (even though it wasn't finished yet).

 Here's dad getting judged. He had to pop the hood. Notice how well his shirt matches the car though? There should be a prize for that.

 Chris though his dad would like this Mustang Mach 1 the most at the show.

 Here's my Uncle Ronnie's 52 Mercury. He won best of show and his car will be on the shirt for next years show... cool huh?! We're going to have to go again just to get the shirts.

Chris's latest best idea ever!

For FHE yesterday Chris had an AWESOME idea. We started making a timeline of our lives together. We haven't gotten very far. But it has been fun to remember everything in the last two years.  We're going to keep working on it as we go. but right now we haven't really finished 2008. Its hard to try to pick and choose to get things to fit, we have so many fun stories!
